PRECEDENT.

The senator in his first letter, with a
boldness that was surprising, asserted
that in reaffirming the Chicago platform
al Roanoke. they were following the GUS
tomary action Of our State conventions.
Now when he is confronted with the ac-
ton OF Virginias State conventions as
set forth in my first letter. for the last
twenty-five years, refuting his statement
and showing that he was without sin
gle precedent to sustain him in his de-
mand at Roanoke. he becomes as silent
as the tomb 10 which so many Of his as
sertiOns have been consigned.
The Senator displays a peculiar facility
IN avoiding rough places. His tactics re-
cally the reply OF the old farmer when
asked why he left a lot Of logs in the
middle OF his field:
They were too heavy to roll. too soggy
10 burn and too tough 10 split, so he left
them and Just pIoughed around them"
The Senator charges me with not study
ing the tariff planks, which l have shown
10 have been an empty assertion. NNow
when it is made apparent that he was
unfamiliar with every State platform
adopted during the twenty-five years next
preceding the year 1896. he takes no notice
OF the fact, lets II stand. and "ploughs

1t Is always a pleasure to me, besides

When L was interviewed by the correspon-
dent OF the washington Post. in common
with a multitude, l thought that Senator
Daniel had been a member Of the Com
mittee on Resolutions of the Chicago con-
vention. Many Of the papers. at least.
had so reported him; the correspondent
of The Richmond Times. in his message
from the convention, OF date July 10th,
had stated that at the request OF Mr..
Glass, the Virginia member. the Senator
had taken his place on the committee; the
Senator's most ardent admirers had be-
lieved that he had played prominent
part In framing the platform, which was
ito lad the people from bondage into
freedom" and II was so proclaimed Justify

heralded as the Virginia Moses, and the
proclamation contributed largely 10 his
prestige in the State. Not sound was

upon a passing breeze from the Senator.

dren were taught to lisp his name. and
the birds to sing his praises as Nirginia's
redeemer from money-power greed and
mOnopolistic enthrallment. But oh, how
cruel is fate. The enhancing story Is no
longer told: the mystic spell is broken;
the Idol Is shattered and its pedestal has
crumbled. Stubborn facts stand out in
martial array: The Senator was only nom
inally temporary chairman. presiding for
only a very brief season. then surrender

mittee, he took no part in the framing
of the platform. he had nothing TO do with
It. and Ibid not know what the platform
contained until 1t was reported 10 the con-
vention." What a damper upon the
ardor OF the admirers Of the Senatorl
"Sc transit gloria mund." How soul
breaking, how heart-rendng Is the
thought "Oh. what fall was there, my
countrymen!' Can IT be that he whose
sovereign will sways Ike sweeping
whirlwind Virginia State Convention. Is
so impotent in a national convention?
Can II be that he whose sceptre is omni-

The Senator asserts that did not study
the platforms of my party on the tariff
until after my interview OF the 1sn instant
I am not surprised at this. for he has
cared nothing for tariff reduction, and
has given the subject so little thought
that he could not imagine how / could
be so well Informed as to the planks of
the various Democratic platforms. The
fact is. my recital of the various tariff
planks was taken from notes in my cam
paigns of 1883 and 1892 All the people
know that as far back as 1883 was dis
GUESSING tariff reform while the Senator
was denouncing the internal revenue tax.
and insisting upon its repeal, and allow
ing the Republican tariff to remain intact.
Why, so befogged is the Senator now
that he does not understand even the
planks OF 1884 and 1855 He thinks the
words In these planks. I'VE demand that
