TWO P0PULIST TICKETS.
BRT AN AND TOWNE AND BARK
Err AND DONNELLY.
Sioux Falls Fusion Convention Names Bryar
and Towne, Cincinnati Middle. of-ths
Road Convention Names
Barker and Donneliy.

The Sioux Falls fusion Populist con.
vention has named W. j. Bryan OF
Nebraska, and Charles A. Towne OF
Minnesota, as its standard bearers.
The platform consists OF preamb bls
and long series of resolutions. The
preamble congratulates the Peoples
party ON the marvellous growth of its
principles during the last four years
among people of all political parties.
This condition the platform continues
gives renewed hope and courage for
the future, in the efforts of the party
to avert the subversion OF free institu-
tions by corporate power and to resist
the evident purpose of the Republican
party to establish a strongly central
lied imperial government.
The resolution on imperialism and
militarism deplore the conduct of the
administration in the Spanish Ameri-
can war, and denounce its conduct in
connection with the Philippines. Re-
ferring TO the latter matter they say it
is in conflict with all the preccdents of
our national life, at war with the con-
stitution and without reasonable ex.
cuse. Demand is made for the cessa-
ton of this war
Porto Rico is declared subject to the
constitution, sympathy for the Beers
is expressed The gold standard ia
denounced and the Chicago platform
plank of the Democrats affirmed, and
the party is pledged anew never to
cease agitation until the financial con-
spiracy is blotted from the statute
books, the Lincoln greenback restored
and the bonds all paid and all corpor-
alton money forever retired"
Both candidates were finally nomi-
mated by acclamation, but the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Towne was only accom-.
plshed after struggle of several
hours duration in which an effort was
made to have the question of the NOM
ination of vice presidential candidate
referred to a committee to confer with
the Democratic and Silver Republican
parties in their national conventions
A motion to this effect was defeated by
a vote of PCS to 492.
