Return of the ProdigaI.

am grstified to learn that many of
the democrats who left the party in
1899 have returned and announced
their intention of supporting the tick
ct.
Some came back because they are no
longer under the spell of the distin-
guished democrats who IN 1896 used
their political prominence and prestige
to lead away men who trusted them.
Some have returned because they are
convinced that Chicago platform prin-
ciples represent the best hope of large
majority OF people.
Some have returned because they
have come into contact with the trusts,
while others have returned because
they believe that aD imperial policy
threatens the very existence of q free
government.
They argue that mistakes made in
carrying out the Chicago platform doc
trines can be corrected if the doctrine
of government is maintained, but
that an imperial policy, once entered
upon with the approval of the people,
would be difficult to overthrow.
The outlook in the east has improved
very much during the last year. If q
like change goes on until election day
the republicans Will loose many states
east of the Allegheny mOuntains.-W

Col. G. g. Conn, of Elkhart
whose candidacy for governor was
not appreciated by the Democratic
party last spring, is now displeased
with the silver declarations of the
Kansas City convention and is terri
bly, disturbed at the possibility Of
coming silver dollars at the ratio OF
10 to 1, although Mr.. Conn knows,
if he knows anything, that from
June 80, 1873, up to June 80, 1900,
the government has coined, accord
ing to the report of the director of
the mint, 49S,496,2I5 silver dollars
at the ratio of 10 to /, and Nj.
Conn's business or the business of
any other man has not been injured.
Mr.. Conn knew the feeling of the
Democratic party on the coinage
question, but he was willing to ac-
cept nomination for governor, if
he could get it on basis of 10 to /.
In the face of this fact his declara-
ton against silver coinage now will
fall very hat.-Fort Wayne Journal.

addresses itself to its late political
associates: alt is not honest for q

they do not intend to support at the

Bryan and William Mckinley, rep
