Washington, July 9.-The Post to-
morrow Will print an interview with
Representative Richardson, of Tenne-
see, who was permanent chairman of
the Democratic Convention at Kansas
City. in which he says, regarding the
Democratic platform:
The controlling reason for using the
phrase of 16 to IN the platform was
because some thought that while free
silver was not the issue of this year.
yet, were it omitted, the very fact of
the omission would give it more prom
inencc and possibly cause il to be dis
pealed in the platform. The argue mt
was that If 1T were left out of the plat
form II would be an issue, but If II
were put into the platform " would be
superseded by the great issue of i'm
perialism."
will the platform command the
support of those who four years ago
broke away from the Democratic
party?" MIR. Richardson was asked.
II have been gratified." he answered.
Ito see that the nominees and platform
nave met with so great favor with the
Eastern press. a few have criticised.
but only few. and the great bulk of
the Democratic press is once more to
he in line with the party. With this
unanmity feel quite sure that we can
carry enough OF the Eastern and Mid
die States TO win the election"
Mr.. Richardson plans TO remain In
Washington for some time and to un-
dertake actively the work Of the Con-
Gresslonal campaign, which will be
managed for the Democrats from
Washington.

pool rapids of the Niagara river this af-
tcrnoon in the presence OF about 10000
persons in his craft, the Foolkiller. The
boat was towcd to a rock about one mile
above the rapids and secured. The point
WAS difficult TO reach by officials from
either the American or Canadian shores
who might have been disposed to inter-
fere with the much-advertised adventure.
shortly after o'clock Mr.. Bower was

der pulled up in a row boat and towcd
the Fooikillcr, with HOwscr aboard, into
the current. At 3:5i the start down
stream was actually commenced, but the
tickle eddes kept the Fookiller drifting
about until 1850. when she got into the
whirlpool current and started for the final
plunge. Passing under the cantilvcr
bridge. the boat took on the speed of an
express train. Bowsor threw his oar far
from him and waved his cap. The crowd
saw the craft rise on the crest on a
smooth wave and then dive into the leap
ing spray and disappear.
The strange craft turned over and over
like top, rolling and Dlunging until II
passed Il bend in the river. and the most
passed. The buoyant craft kept on the
crest of the waves until submerged again
on the verge OF the whirlpool. Shooting
into the whirlpool the Foolkiller swung
but rose again quickly. For the next five
minutes Bowscr and his boat circlcd
