Neither national convention will
have any trouble with silver unless
noise is real trouble, Not even in
the Chicago convention viii the sill
yer men be strong enough to make
any serious impression. The dem
ocratic convention will make Il
sound money plank and pamc Il
sound money candidate. Mckin.
ley cant be beaten. He will he
nominated. not BECAUSE the masses
of the voters are for him-for the
people never make nominations
but because the body of voters who
are active IN party work want him.
They make nominations. not the
voters under them nor the big
leaders over them"

for Mckinley. and at that time
their purpose WAS 10 have both
old party platforms rs near alike

deemed best. in order To have the
solid south in line, and for the pur-
pose of slisrupting the populist
party 10 change their plans. We
do not believe the powers behind
the throne intend 10 rc elect Me
