THE TRUE DEMOCRACY.


Chairman Bynuua u ...s aRtloHa Dsml'
cratic Committss lnass an 49,. -.
sound Money Cause GRinsd In Recent
Election.
NEW YORK, Nov, 2S,--W, D, Bynum,
chairman OF the National Democratic
committee, to-day issued tae followiuH
address;
Headquarters National Democratic
Committee, NEW YORK,
November %, 1897,
To the National Democracy;
The results OF the recent elections
were in no wise discouraSIng to the
success OF the principles for which tho
National Democratic party has been
battling, The silver organizations lNst
the states OF Ohio and Maryland with
the legislatures, which will cnoose Uni
ted States senators, In Kentucky the
silver candidate had majority OF only
1923, with $4,000 electors, a majority OF
whom were unauestionnhly FOR sound
money, not voting. The National
Democratic vote OF the state was twice
as large as It was last year, while the
loss In the free silver vote was 10000
In Iowa, the Democratic sound money
vote was doubled, notwithstanding the
silver candidates abandoned that Issue
and pleaded for support on state mat
ters. The sound money vote In both
Kentucky and Iowa, would undoubted-
ly have been much larger had 1t not
been for the fact that the names OF all
the local candidates for county officers
appeared on the ballots under the free
silver state tickets and emblems, there
by compelling sound money electors TO
scratch their tickets or vote the free
silver state ticket in order to vote for
local officers.
In Massachusetts our vote was in
creased rs per cent. while that OF the
free silver candidate was reduced in the
same ratio.
In Nebraska the free silver majority
was reduced while South Dakota de-
serted the cause.
The efforts OF the national Democratic
organization last year were TO aid In
saving the credit of the nation from
dishonor; Its mission In the future Will
be II possible. 10 preserve the true prin-'
cIples OF Democracy until Judgment
and reason shall again dominate the
councils OF the party and It's ancient
creed be restored to its platform.
Then, and not until then, will the
work OF the national Democratic party
be accomplished and lts organization
cease to be an independent one.
The flrmer convictions and the boil
der the courage OF national Democrats,
the sooner will the country be freed
from the bllghting influence Of I'm
pending disaster.
No compromise with dlshonor; no
surrender OF principle to expedlency. is
the shlbboleth OF the national Democ..
racy and each and every member OF
the party should stand by his convie-
tlons and redouble his efforts TO up
hold the principles he believes to be In
dlspensable TO the preservation OF the
rights and properties of the people

a few hours to-day expressed TO the In
telligencer correspondent briefly his
Views on the Republican outlook In
West Virginia, II have been through
the state TO some extent" he said, "and
have talked with the people, have no
doubt whatever that West Virginia Will
go Republican. There Is the best OF
feeling, and the business conditions are
Improving right along. Why, the state
cannot be in better shape"
What about the legislature?"
"To be brief, the Republicans VIII
carry the four congressional districts
and control the Legislature. They VIII
choose the next United States SENATOR

II am not discussing men, but Just
say that the next senator from West
Virginia will be a Republican"
The captain was at the war depart
ment in the interest Of Henry McMas-
ter, who wants his record Strengthened
out. While there he interviewed the

ments. He was informed that the con-
tracts for the dams on the Mononga-
hela river had all been settled and that
there Is nothing In the way OF an early
commencement Of the work OF con-
struction. The contractors will begin
as soon as the weather will permit, and
Captain Dovener predicted that before
this time next year business VIII be
booming at the head Of the Mononga-
hela.
Three presidential postmasters in the
First district will be appointed in q
short time. That was settled to-day.
The prospective appolntees are; George
