Many men began shooting a. the ex-

just sounded in all the camps and the
bands had played their good-nights.
The men were hardly asleep when q
loud cracking like the firing of Cat

The state Chairman Advises That Con-
EsessiOnal Nominations be Made at Ear
Hest Opportunity-Other Nominating
Conventions can be Held Later-Popu-
lists Cannot Accept Nominations at the
Hands of the Democrats.
The following letter has been sent
Peoples Party by State Chairman
Thompson:
The action of the recent Democratic
State Convention in refusing an offer
of cooperation with the Peoples Party
in order to elect nine silver Congress-
men, coupled with their failure to
make Us a counter proposition looking
to the same end, makes their position
utterly indefensible before the rank
and file of the people who earnestly
desire reform in national legislation.
"We should spare neither time nor
effort to impress upon the people the
fact that the Democratic party, not.
withstanding its platform professions,
has substantially by it's action, declar-
ed against financial reform, against
Bryan and silver, and has betrayed, at
the dictation of the goldbugs and mo-
nopolies, the true Democrats inside
the Democratic party; the folly of
| whose further attempts to flight it out
inside the party" should be apparent
to all. The Peoples Party is evidently
their only refuge.
| Twill 1t not have the effect of en-
phasizing our position, and of bring
ing honest men everywhere to discuss
the situation as it exists and to realize
that the Peoples Party has done all
that 1t could, and that it will continue
to do all that it can, in the line of the
financial reform, if we proceed at the
earliest possible date to hold our Con-
gressional Conventions, and decide
upon whom we will support for Con-
gress-men sincerely in harmony with
our principles and aggressive in their
advocacy; whose defeat, II it comes
shall be evidently chargeable to the
design of the Democratic party under
its corporate, goldbug control?

Washington POST

In our edition of Saturday there ap-
peared a dispatch from Chicago giving
an account of q prominent railroad
mans experience and observation in
Tampa. We repeat the utterances of
the gentleman in question:
1.-THE delays attending the transport
tation of troops from Tampa was caus-
ed by the lack of ability on the part of
army Quartermasters, who seemed to
be utterly unable to properly discharge
their duties. Many carloads of pro-
visions for the troops were not handled
promptly, and their contents IN cOnse-
auepce SPOILED and had to be thrown
into the sea. The magnificent mill
tary system of the United States is de-
fective in the Quartermaster's depart
ment. There is apparently q lack OF
Quartermasters who have q thorough
Knowledge of up-to- date rail as we'll as
ship transpOrtlOn. 1t seems to me
that the remedy for 1t is to give in
structions at West Point in transp0r-
tation, so that army officers can super
wise the work of this most important
department, and see that it is proper.

The Congressional Record, of the
