Senator Elkins said IN part: The Re
publican party appeals to the people for
a continuance Of confidence not only on
the record IL has made in the past, bet
on what IL Is doing now and what It
proposes to do in the future. The history
OF the Republican party or the last forty
years is substantially she history "f the
nations progress during this per'od~-the
greatest 'n the history OF any country.
THE Democratic party should not he
trusted on the policies II has advocated
and the record 1t has made. During the
last forty years. from 1850 10 1900. u had
control of the government in all Its
branches only once the four years from
lNc TO 1895. The effect of Democratic leg
islation during thess four years cast the
darkest shadow that rests u7an the pros

ticket. Some bitterness was evident
among the Populists over the withdrawal
of their vice presidential candidate, Chas.

had been accomplished, either by the con-
ference committee OF the three parties,
which was to decide on appointment OF
the officers among the three parties, or
in the way of other business before the
convention. w. ]. Bryan and Charles A.

Ballard.


After tomorrow morning one OF the
long-standing grievances OF the citizens
of Ballard against the Seattle Electric
Company Will be settled. From that time
on the Ballard cars will run along West
ern avenue. instead Of using the Second
avenue tracks. They will run, however
, only as far az Madison street until the
new turntable being built for the Madi-
son street road Is finished. when they
will run, as formerly, to the foot of Co
lumbia street The fact that the cars
win go back on Western avenue is de-
cided advantage to travellers to and from
Ballard In point of time-saving. although
1t will not be so convenient for those who
desire TO use transfers. e
