Senator Teller VIII Advocate 10
to Declaration.

senator Teller Will Advocate q 16
to I Declaration. Il
KANSAS CITY, Mo, July 2-Senator
Teller, of Colorado was among today's
arrivals. He comes to attend the Sill
yer Republican convention, and will prob
ably preside over its proceedings. Asked
If he thought the Democratic convention
should make a specific declaration for the
coinage of silver at the ratio Of l6 to
l, he replied:
Most emphatically- I reply that such
a declaration should be- made. The de-
mand for a simple reaff1rmation of the
Chicago platform without other refer
ence to the financial question, comes from
the gold Democrats who did not support
Bryan in 1885, and it is somewhat doubt
full whether some who insist upon the
pursuance of this course will support
him in 1900. In many of the states west
of the Alleghenies there are thousands of
voters who will support Bryan, and the
Democratic party on account of their po-
sition on the financial question. These
people believe in the free coinage of sill
yer at the ratio of 16 to 1, and they
will regard a simple reaffirmation of the
Chicago declaration as an attempt to
minimize the silver question as presented
in the Chicago platform They will not
believe that such an omission is insisted
upon by the cold standard democrats Tor
any other purpose than to make 1t ap-
pear that the contention for free silver
coinage at 16 to 1 has been abandoned
by the Democratic party. Such is I'M
doubtedly the purpose of the gold advo-
Gates.
IF the Democratic party is in favor of
free coinage at the historic ratio, which
cannot be questioned, their representa-
tives in the national convention ought to
reflect that sentiment and so declare. If
they fail to do that, the people will be-
lieve that they no longer adhere to the
principles enunciated III 1896 on that sub
ject or else that they are too eowardly
to declare their true principles.
mo political party in this country ever
gained any advantage by failing to make
emphatic declaration upon any important
question of policy. Surely there is no
question before the people which has
created more discussion or interest than
the money question and the Democratic
party ought not to speak upon 1t in any
uncertain tone.
81 believe failure to make a definite
declaration will mean utter defeat in the
coming election l admit that there are
other important questions that must be
considered, but none of them, nor all
of them, are in my opinion of sufficient
Importance to justify any departure from
the platform of 1896"

BOOM FOR MIR. CLARK.
Crowd Greets Montana Senator With
Opem-Air Nomination.


KANSAS CITY, July 2.-Incoming clubs
and organizations headed by bands en-
livened the streets and hotel Hobbies to-
night, and the atmosphere has begun
to take on a convention hue. Accom-
panied by brass band of twenty-five
pieces and about thirty "rooters," w. A.
Clark, of Montana, and the other MEM
bers of the Clark contesting delegation
from that state arrived today and took up
headquarters at the Midland hotel on
the floor below that on which the Daily
delegation has its headquarters. Quite a
crowd had gathered in front of the hotel.
Some one shouted, Speech" as Mr..
Clark's carriage was driven up and the
cry was at once taken up by the crowd.
After a moments hesitation Mr. Clark
stood up in the seat of his carriage and
made a brief speech, thinking this part
of the welcome rendered him. At this
point j. A. Ross, a member of the Ma
tional Association of Negro Democratic
clubs, who was standing close to Mr..
Clark's carriage, climbed upon the wheel
and shouted:
I'm behalf Of the New York delegation
nominate w. A. Clark, of Montana, for
vice president"
The nomination was received with a
cheer, and Mr.. Clark, smiling and bow
ing, climbed down from the carriage and
entered the hotel.
Two hundred Tammanyites, including a
number of New York city delegates,
came tonight. They were accompanied
by no band. Most of the delegates and
Tammanyites were content to ride on
street cars. But once at their hotel they
proceeded to make things lively. TIE big
parlors used as headquarters were dec
Grated with streamers and the pictures
of Bryan and Murphy were draped with
the national colors, and an old and worn
horse shoe was suspended in the proper
position.

MIR. BRYAN AT HOME.
Receives Colorado Delegates and
Makes IA Five-Minute speech.

LINCOLN, Neb, July with the re-
turn to Kansas City today of former
Senator Hill and his friends the confer
ence stage at the Bryan home has given
away to the more spectacular features.
These began today with the arrival OF
the Colorado delegation, accompanied by
visitors to the number of over a hun
bred.
So far as the platform which Mr.. Brv-
an favors is concerned 1t is supposed TO
have been entrusted to Senator Hill. The
vice presidency is not so clear but the
developments OF the day seemed to en-
phasize the belief that Congressman Sui
ger Is no longer in the running. Senator
Hill and Delegates Hughes and MCGUIRE
are not for him
Among the Lincoln crowd, now that
the Nebraska delegates themselves. who
are for Towne, have gone, the name Of
carter Harrison is more frequently men
uoned than that Of any other second
place possibility. Mayor Harrison, it is
asserted, would be acceptable to Mr..
Bryan, but 1t is believed that not even
TO his intimates has he expressed "a
leading preference as to his running
mate.
The new front porch of the Bryan
nome received its dedication today The
Colorado contingent stopped over from s
o'clock till noon, and serenaded Mr.. Bry-
an. The musicians of the party were all
dressed as Indians. Delegate Franklin,
OF Denver, In introducing friends said:
Mr. Bryant want to assure you that
Colorado Is still for you, and that we will
give you a handsome majority this fall.
You have been a brave, honorable and
consistent follower Of the truth, and for
that reason we honor and support YOU"
Mr. Bryan responded in q fiVe-minute
speech, saying:
assure you 1 appreciate your good
Will, and am glad to see you here. l as
sure you Colorado people are no more
anxious for the realization Of the prin-
ciples of the Democratic platform than
are the people of many other states.
But L want to say to you that when
Colorado forsakes the principle of 16 to !,
and when the people have ceased In their
support of that principle, 1 will be found
still fighting, even though alone
1.-THE Republicans held their national
convention at Philadelphia on the ami
Yersary OF the founding of their party,
thereby exercising a partisan spirit The
Democrats hold their convention on the
Fourth OF July, the anniversary OF the
birth of the nation, thereby exhibiting
national spirit. The Republicans would
repeal the declaration of independence,
the Democrats would reaf1irm it every
where throughout the world.
There Is one great principle 10 he
fought for in the coming campaign, and
that is whether or not the dollar shall
be placed above the man. Whenever man
and the dollar come into conflict. -
Republican party stands for the dir =
first, the Democrats stand for the man.
Where there was one reason in 1896 for
carrying Colorado for the Democratic
ticket, there are sixteen reasons now.

by Mr.. Bryan to Hill, and that the object
of Mr.. Bryan is to get Hill in line, so
that he will not repeat the performance
of 1896 and remain silent during the cam
paign One thing is certain, the Demo-
cratic leaders from New York now here
expect to have conference with. Mr.
Hill on his return from Lincoln and until
that conference takes place, no pro-
gramme will be agreed upon.
The Silver Republican leaders held a
meeting at the Coates house tonight to
discuss MI. Towne's prospects. A num-
Der of speeches were made, going over
the grounds of his availability, all agree
ing that the prospects Of their candi-
date were improving. A committee was
appointed to prepare for active work in
Mr.. Towne's behalf, Senator Pettigrew
being made chairman. Subcommittee
VIII be appointed to visit the various
state delegation and present Mr.. Towne's
candidacy

JUDGE VAN wYcK,s PAPER.
Draft of Platform Prepared by the
New Yorker.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July Judge
Augustus Van Wyck, of New York. has
a draft of q platform which has been
submitted to the Southern delegates, and
Is said to have met with some ~sIvor from
them. The document reaffiTms the Chi
cago platform and practically confines
itself TO the three questions, the trusts,
Imperialism and the tariff. II says:
I'm reafTirming the principles declared
in the platform adopted four years ago,
we recognize the new questions that have
arisen in the meantime, and are not TO
be understood as turning our faces from
the problems that then most urgently con-
fronted the country, and which. though
rightly emphasized by the Chicago con-
vention, have been for the present some
what shorn Of their urgency by the
course of recent events. When the very
life of free institutions is at stake. we
think it incumbent upon all patriots to
waive their lesser differences TO the end
that their united strength may be ex-
erted against the common enemy"
AS to the trusts the platform declares
that I'm the nation, in the several states.
and in every municipality, the Democra-
cy, true to It's organization, wages unre-
hitting war for the stamping out Of these
conspiracies to re-establish, under the
forms of trade, the power of the few to
rule and rob the many. IL the laws al
ready on the statute books be found In
adequate to the work before us. we shall
enact laws that will admit of no excuse
for official inactivity"
With reference to Imperialism there Is
the following:
I'VE make a clear distinction between
expansion and Imperialism. BY the form
er we mean that just demand of "A rap
idly growing people, distinguished in
the highest degree for skill in manufac-
lures, enterprises in commerce and unri-
vailed capacity in agriculture and for ac-
cess to ever-enlarging markets; We by
the latter, we mean that un-American
spirit that would identify our flag with
tyranny repudlate the principles upon
which the republic was founded and COM
NIT us to the abhorrent task Of sitting
with the bayonet the natural aspirations
OF weaker communities for liberty.
There are necessary measures to be tax
en- alike in the Philippines and China
for the maintenance Of the commercial
interests Of this republic, as well as for
the effective exercise Of our naval and
military authority in the Pacific ocean,
and these the Democratic party will.

in the South, in the East as well as the
west. Ours Is a party whose speakers
do not have to revise their speeches for
each section of the country they visit"
Mr.. Bryan was vigorously applauded at
the conclusion.
The Colorado delegation has not organ
lied yet and there is a contest between
Gov. Thomas and T. ]. Maloney over tho
craftsmanship. Mr.. Maloney says he IS
for 16 to l. He considers Hill clear out
Of the question.
Three members of the Pennsylvania
delegation today consulted with Mr..
Bryan They were: Congressman .Nmes
Kerr, secretary of the congressional COM
mittee; eX-Congressman Mutchler, and
Mayor Frtchie, of Harrisburg. They said
they were In sympathy with Mr.. Bryan's
Ideas of the platform.

and his views have been understood all
the time. The different state delegations
have been instructed for him with that
understanding, and now at the last min
ute he cannot stultify himself by ac-
cepting candidacy based upon any 9TH
er platform. However, there viii be a
question Of that kind calling for solution.
The gentlemen who are going to Lincoln
will find him adamant, and he will not
be moved from his position under any
circumstances

REGARDED AS SIGNIFICANT.
Silver Resolution Adopted by Ne
brasI<a Delegation.


KANSAS CITY, July AT meeting
of the Nebraska delegatin today, called
expressly for the purpose of making
clear its position upon the financial ques-
ton. the following specific declaration in
favor of the 16 to proposition was adopt
ed unanimously:
Resolved, That the Nebraska delega-
ton to the Democratic national conven-
ton is unalterably opposed to any sur
render Of the principle of binetalism
and is heartily in favor of inserting in
pledging the free and unlimited coinage
OF gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to
J. independently Of what any other ma.
ton may do
The significance of the utterance subse-
ouently was emphasized by the pains
taken by the members of the delegation

ton among the delegates and newspaper
men.
