NO THIRD TICKET.
Gold Democrats WIN Make NO Nominal
ton.

indianapolis, Ind, July 20.-By unan-
imous vote Of the national committee OF
the National (Gold Standard) Democracy
this afternoon, the scheme with the anti
imperialist1c movement originating with
the recent mass meeting at the Plaza
hotel in New York city was defeated as
was also the plan to place gold standard
Democratic ticket in the field this year.
OF the 80 members of the national
committee there were present nineteen
members. Two of the committee men
held proxies. A sub committee presented
an address setting out the proposition for
fusion and a third party ticket with the
reason set forth at the New York meet
ing.
In accordance with suggestion by
Charles Tracey of New York, each mem
Der of the national Democratic commit
tee expressed his views on the matter.
When the vote on the question and the
nomination OF third ticket was taken,
Gordon Woodbury. OF New Hampshire
proved to be the only com mitteeman
present who favored third party ticket.
He urged his views at some length. The
vote was by ballot and stood 26 to 1
against the proposition.
M. Woodbury. at once moved that the
vote be made unanimous and this W as
done.
A committee of three was then APP
pointed to draft a manifesto setting out
the position of the national democracy
regarding the issues now before the
people.
One of the sensations of the meetiDg
was when w. B. Haldeman, proprietor
of the Louisville Courier-J ournaI and
member of the national executive arose
and declared his intention of supporting
Bryan and Stevenson. Mr.. Haldeman
in 1896 contributed much aid in actively
raising funds for the organization and
maintenance of the work OF the gold
democracy and was member Of the aud
iting COMMITTEES of that party.
The committee appointed at the con-
ference held at the Plaza hotel, New
York, gave out the following statement
and call for a convention to be held in
this city August IA. 1t is as follows:
1.-The national committee of the Gold
AI0l4OSAesOo nave DEOuSub OAo uo5ll4Al1Soo
Of that organization to an end. 1t now
becomes the duty 81 the Independent
committee to enable the independent
voters to place in the field a platform
and candidate which they can conscious
" support.
''We believe that the anti-imperialists
have done splendid work in recalling the
Republic to the ideas of it's founders.

chance to express their disapproval of ex-
listing conditions. A mass convention
is hereby called to meet at indianapolis
at ? p. m. on the 14th day of August,
1900, to nominate or cooperate in the
nomination OF candidates for President
and V1ce-President upon a platform
substantially as follows;
Platform:

FROM CONGER.
A Message Dated July Received at

Washin gtOn.
Washington, July 25-The following
cablegram has been received at the navy
department:
Che Foo, July "a 1900.
Navigation Bureau, Washington.
Written message, signed Conger,
dated July 9TH, received at Tien Tsin,
91st, says:

ere by Chinese soldiers, who are Smelling

s'Thomas.''
The message comes from Captain
Charles M Thomas, commander OF the
Brooklyn.
WHAT THE MESSAGE MEANS.
Washington, July 25.-The message
from Minister Conger which came over
the wires from Captain Thomas this
morning was the first communication
OF unquestionable authenticity which
has been received from the American min
lister at Pekin since his urgent appeal
for help OF june 10. 1t establishes
clearly the fact that the American min
ister and probably our legationers We're
alive on July 4th, though in sore straits
Therefore, it completely and finally dis
poses of the first stories that were pu b
lished from Shanghai Of the massacre of
June II. 1t is true that it does not Itself
negative the subsequent reports Of the
massacre on July 9th, two days later
than the date OF the despatch, but the
officials here feel that there is quite as
much reason to believe that the second
report was false as in the case of the first
report.
LONDON'S BELIEF SHAKEN.
London, July 25.-The tone OF the Eu-
ropean press with regard to the message
dated July 4, received here yesterday
from the British minister at Pelzin, Sir
Claude MaeD onald, continues pessimistio
and the endless and extraordinary sue
e9ssion Of Chinese dispatches purport1ne
to describe the situation at Pekin proves
to be wilder. However, earlier unques
tioning belief that massacre took place
there has to some extent been shaken
and it is now admitted, despite the heavy
load of evidence supporting the reports
of the massacre, that as Sir Claude Mac
Donald's letter disposed of the first story
alleging that the crime occurred June
80. so Minister Conger-s despatch and
other stories reporting the legation safe
July 10, Il and IL, give 50 me ground for
assuming that the second reports were
also unfounded.

REPUBLICAN COLONIZATION
SCHEMES

The Register this morning throws
some light upon the Republican COLO
nizatioH schemes in this State. The
party leaders have for some time real
lied that they have no show of sue
cess through legitimate methods, and
have, as a consequence, resorted to the
dastardly plan of bringing into the
State from Pennsylvania, Virginia,
North Carolina, and elsewhere men
not entitled to cast a ballot here.
These people are to be located in close
or doubtful counties, given temper
airy employment until election day at
any sort of work, or maintained in
idleness where work cannot be procur-
ed, at the expense OF the State and
National Committees, and by their aid
it is hoped to not only pull the Re
publican State and Congressional tick
cts through, but elect enough members
of the Legislature to make it possible
to choose a Republican successor to
Elkins
The Democratic leaders are thorough
ly aware of what is going on, and the
public will be fully warned, while
steps will be taken to arrest and pun
iah any and every man who votes or
attempts to vote without a legal right.
The colonization scheme shows the des-
peration of the Republicans, and their
despair of success through fair means.
Every stranger should be spotted and
kept track Of and if he offers to vote
on election day, nail him.

you ever have good fat job and then go
rushing around for one that did not pay

around spending thousands of dollars for
a job that the yearly salary would not
pay their expenses for a week unless 1t
was good investment? Would you? Wen

Several years ago an eastern dealer In
wire nails was a customer Of the HIP.
Nail Co, of Cleveland When the Ameri-
lean Steel & Wire Company absorbed the
HIP Company he sent 70 the trust" and
asked for quotations. The price Of wire
nails had advanced considerably, and
the eastern buyer declared, when he re-
ceived the quotations, that he would not
purchase from the trust" The Ameri-
can Steel & Wire Company, realizlng that
it controlled the nail field did not bother
the eastern dealer, feeling that he would
soon send in his order.
Some time later the trust" received a
mammoth order for wire nails from Eu-
rope The nails were shipped across ths
ocean, then back again until they finally
fell into the hands of the eastern dealer.
He sold the nails at retail at lower price
than other dealers. and this led to an IN
vestigation upon the part Of the trust.
The American Steel & Wire Company then
discovered that the Yankee dealer IN the
East had been able 70 order nails through

spANKED ONCE MORE.

Capt B. B. Dovener never appears to
learn anything by experience. About
once in so often he incautiously ven
lures upon a public discussion, and he
is invariably the recipient OF a verbal
spanking. Then he subsidies for awhile,
but the old idea that he is a debater
and knows things asserts itself again,
and he rushes into some more trouble.
There was a case in point down at
Parkersburg, Friday evening. The
Captain, filled with the impression that
he had an idea, tackled w. E. R.
Byrne ON the Filipino question. The
subsequent proceedings are detailed in
this issue of the Register, and have
more than a passing interest. Hence
forth the present Congressman from
the First West Virginia district will be
known and saluted as Official Record

a SPLENDID TICKET.

The Democratic county ticket now
before the voters is one which COM
mends itself to every intelligent citi-
zen. 1t is made up of candidates who
have the absolute confidence of the peo-
pie, and possess elements of strength
both unusual and remarkable. That
this ticket will be triumphantly elected
is the belief of good judges of political
matters and the hope of those who de-
sire the best administration Of public
affairs.
The candidate for Sheriff, w. W.
Irwin, is one above criticism. His
standing in the community is second to
that of no other man, and his capacity
to administer the responsible duties OF
the office Is undoubted. His personal
popularity is deservedly grea.. he is
making clean campaign, relying upin
other things than hard drinks, person.
ally conducted clubs and Doodle. Mr..
lrwin's course before the people is char
acteristic of the man, and an indication
of his sterling character and worth,
His personal following Is not limited by
party lines, but comes from sincere adj
miration for one worthy of it.
