The Afternoon Session.


CHICAGO, July AT $50 o'clock
Chairman Daniel called the convention
to order, and announced that the com
mittee on credentials was ready TO re-
port.
When the reading clerk read the re-
port seating four silver delegates from
Michigan, which changed the com
plexion Of the delegation under the
unit rule, from gold to silver, there
was considerable applause among the
silver men on the floor. Ex-Congress
man John c. Crosby, Of Massachusetts,,
on behalf of the minority Of the com.
mittee, took the stage and earnestly
protested against the decision oil
the majority. Many Others also
spoke and the whole affair gave evil
dence Of intense feeling. Finally
Chairman Daniel put the question,
first, on the adoption of the minority

Readers of the Mail have already
been apprised of the fact that Henry
George has declared for Mckinley.
Now comes Herr Most and declares
for gold. The anarchists seem to
be finding out where their fellows
are. He says:
Here am represented by the Sun
as a follower and supporter Of Altgeld
Tillman and all the other silver
crankS, when / am, as all anarchists
know, a better gold standard advo-
cate than even the most rabid Wall
street banker. AS for silver money
why silver is so cheap and plentiful
that shoe nails might as we'll oe put
in circulation as currency. Gold is
the only correct standard of value"
The Mail offers great inducements
to the Populists not to indorse
Bryan, He says if they do not the
Populist party will advance to Sec
ond place and the Democratic party
will be disrupted. 1t will not be
forgotten that while that is going on
goldism will have four years more Of
lease, the people will have been re-
duced to bankruptcy and poverty,
Cy Leland will have become chief
dispenser of public patronage and
Andy will have received his share
Of the pie-no matter if he did
favor silver and condemn goldbugism
up to few months ago. These
facts will not be lost sight Of by the
citizen in making up his judgment.
Nor will it be forgotten that every
where else Bryan is branded as a
PopuliSt anyway.
The gold Democrats of Illinois
have issued an address to the faith
full calling for new national Demo
cratic convention to nominate a real
Democratic ticket. They claim
Bryan and his crowd are Populists,
and will not support it. The ad-
dress is signed by Senator John NJ.
Palmer, Franklin McVeagh and
others. If acted upon it will have
the effect of dividing the gold bug
element in two parts and insure the
election Of Bryan. We hope it may
be done. 1t will bring about the
new alignment which four years
hence will crystalize into an entirely
new party which will rule this coun.
try in the interests of the masses fol-
years to come, and accomplish great
reforms in the new political econ.
