REPORTS OF THE
EVENTS OF INTEREST.

Matters Selected with an Eye to the
Happenings in the State During the Past
Few Days Culled from the Reports
Milwaukee, Aug. 2.-The address is
sued to Wisconsin Democrats by the
committee created in Chicago on July
20, consisting of John Tooher, of Mil
waukee; T. E. Ryan, Of Waukesha and
w. H. Rogers, of Madison, and made
public yesterday, recommends the or
ganization of Democratic clubs through
the state of Wisconsin without delay,
and says that there are three great
questions confronting the American
people for solution which must be
fought out in the next national cam
paign. That they are not the only is
sues by any means, but that they pre-
dominate over all others, there can be
no doubt. The great questions are
trusts, money and imperialism, any
one of which should serve as an issue
for a national campaign.
Chicago Platform Is to stand.
The principles enunciated in the Chi
cago platform of 1896, the address says,
should, and the committee believes
will, receive in 1900 a complete in
dorsement and reaffirmation by re-
united Democracy. The money Ques-
ton is then treated at considerable
length, and it declares in favor of BIZ
metallism at the ratio of 16 to l, as ii
stood when it was demOnetized in 1873.
1t deals also extensively with the ques-
ton Of trusts, and says the respOn-
sibility of the evils flowing from them
should be placed at the door of the Re-
publican party. 1t charges the Re-
publican party with turning it's back
upon the principles enunciated in the
declaration of independence, and look.
ing to the Old World-the government
of King George III.-fOr it's inspiration
and guidance. William J. Bryan is de-
clared to be the first public man to
come out on the question of imperial
ism.
Senator Who Is Not Sure.
Los Angeles, Cal, Aug 2.-Senator
w. A. Clark who is in the city stated
in an interview yesterday that in his
opinion there is nothing sure about
William J. Bryan's nomination by the
Democratic party at it's next national
convention. The senator also said that
he is not sure about silver being the
great issue of the next campaign,
though he still calls himself bimetal
list He believes to a certain extent III
expansion, and feels that the war III
the Philippines must be carried on un-
! til the FilipinOS surrender.
