charter allows them the use Of the public
roads wherever possible. Tho line would
run along the road because OF its being the
most convenient route for the public. Mr..
Deegan Is an experienced railway construc-
tor and has built systems in New York,
PittsburS. and Philadelphia covering over
two hundred miles in the latter city.
In building the line here it is their
intention to make it standard and
substantial system. with standard guage
tracks the power house being located either
at Elkton or Chesapeake City. Their
engineers will be on the field next week
working on the survey. The construction
OF the line he stated would require about
three months They would buy their poles
and cross ties from local people, and local
workman would be employed in the building
of the line. Two hundred hands would be
needed.
OF course it is premature to talk about the
running OF cars and the fare-'but Mr.. Deeg-
an said that cars would be run at conven-
lent time possibly every thirty minutes, and
that the fare between Elkton and Chesapeake
City would not exceed ffteen cents, possibly
ten cents.

tures of the Platform.

william Jennings Bryan, Of Nebraska, was
Thursday night unanimously placed in NOM
ination as the Democratic candidate Tor
President Of the United States, on a platform
including Il specific declaring for the free
coinage of silver at the ratio Of 1G 10 l. The
nomination came a the culminatiOn Of Il
frenzjed demonstration in honor Of the party
leader lasting twcnty-scven minutes and
giving utterance to all the pen;-np emotions
ofthe vast multitude. Il followed also a
fierce struggle throughout the last thirtysi
hours concerning the platform declaration
on silver and on the relative position which
the silver question l. to maintain 10 tine
other great issues OF the day.
The new issue of imperialism was, bow
ever. made the leading card, yet free silver
was held up as the staple issue for the cam
paign. The platform was adopted without
any protest The nomination OF Bryan had
been anticipated and there is little or nothing
to saw on that subject. It MAJ be well, how
ever, to revert at this time to estimates OF
the Democratic candidate.
Mr.. Julian Hawthorne. in writing from
Lincoln, Nebraska, OF an interview with
Bryan, said that if the people decide to put
BRYAN in the White House they will know
lust what they are getting and Will have only
themselves to blame
BRYAN has won a complete victory. The
Democratic National Convention has ac-
cepted his free-silver plank, explicitly pIeds-
ing the party to the doctrine OF the free coin
ace Of silver at 16 to /, without reference to
the action of any other nation True, a sop
was thrown to the defeated conservatives by
a declaration that anti-imperialism is to be
