With the nomination of Bryan ard Stcv.
enson at Kansas City last week, the formu
lating OF issues was completed and the ircsi
dental campaign opened
While there seemed to be a possibility that
by re writing of that part of the platform
eastern wing OfdemoCraCy would be attract
ed from its semi.hostile attitude of 1896, it
certainly surprised no one that the full re-
affirmation Of the party's position four years
ago was made at Kansas City. 1t could not
have been more than a hope that the more
conservative element would obtain control,
for at no time prior to the convention had
Mr.. Bryan or any Of his recognized mouth
pieces ever gwen the slightest intimation
that the silver issue of 96 wOuld be ignored
or even modified 1t would seem that the
eastern democrats, falling to develop a new
issue Of sufficient strength before the people
to usurp the place that the silver issue held
four years ago, determined upon the policy
of endorsing Mr.. Bryan, hoping thereby TO
get sufficiently near to him in advance of the
convention, to be able to influence h.m in Il
friendly way, An instance of tins, the most
striking that we can recall is the recent atti.
tude of the Baltimore san. In 1896 The Sun
opposed Mr.. Bryan; not perfunctorly as
though half fheartedly performing an unplcas-
ant duty but earnestly, wholly and to the
bitter end. During the six months prior to
the Kansas City convention THE Sun reversed
Its attitude towards Mr.. Bryan and paid the
warmest tribute to the excellence of his char
acter even going far enough to honor him
for the courage of his convictions upon the
silver question, but all the time urging him to
accept the gold standard as a fat acc0mpH
and 10 agree to the substitution of others as
the prime issues of the coming campaign.
This policy was almost universally adopted
by the newspapers and public men who rep
resented the gold standard democracy of '9G
and it seemed to promise results in the line
desired, viz, the minimizing of the silver
issue iu this campaign. Promising though
it seemed, it failed in the main, gaining only
the one point, that, not merely by inference
but by categorical statement In the platform,
another, imperialism, is recognized as the
main issue upon which the party goes before
the country, relegating silver to The third
place.
1t remains to be seen whether that conces-
session will meet the requirements of the gold
democrats of 1896 and whether The Sun and
those who have argued on parallel lines dur
ing the past year, that opposition to Presi-
dent McKinleys foreign policy should be
made the dominant issue, will accept, with
silver" in third place, platform that meets
their demand on the main question,

just now ship is passing us and we feel
we are not entirely alone in the world.
The weather is very pleasant with light
Winds. have my winter underwear and
heavy waist on and feel quite comfortable,
though it is not cold.
One day on board ship is so much like
another that there is very little to chronicle.
Occasionally, however, we have game of
whist, or some other pleasant amusement is
indulged in.
Having some desire to see the machinery
of the ship, | went down into the engine
room, twenty feet under water, by narrow,
slippery staircases, and here saw the great
engines that have carried us safely across the
sea. They have three triple expansion en-
gines of 5000 horse power connecting with
single screw propeller: Here, too, was the
dynamo which generates the electric light.
The stokers stirred the fire and the cavernOus
depths of glowing coal might have served
Dore for a picture of Hades. The sea water
is pumped into a boiler and the steam gen.
Grated is used to run the engines and the
fresh water put into the boiler.
There are 317 head of horses, POI head of
cattle and III passengers OH board. Some
of the horses, understand, are intended for
South Africa; others are racers, and from the
way they MUNICH their hay we are led to
think they accept their new position philos-
ophicaly.
We had hoped to reach London today but
we find we will be one day late, still, under
bright blue sky and over sparkling waves
oul good ship Manitou faces on her eastward
way. This the last day out is an ideal one
and as the dark blue waves crested with
white foam, lifted and tossed, and sunk again
into miniature valleys bearing on her bosom
the ship with precious freight of humanity
and its valuable cargo of live stock. Apro-
pos, one of the horses had to be thrown
overheard last night.
We had concert last night which we all
attended dressed in our best attire. The
talent was composed of the passengers. 1t
was very nice and we all enjoyed 1t very
much.
AS we are now nearing the great city Of
London, will close, hoping to tell you some
thing of what see on land in my next.

STEAM SHIP MANIToU,
June &c, 1900
The sight of land after ten days Of ocean
travel with its mOnOtonous water scenery is
most cheering and invigoratlng. The first
sight that greeted our eyes this morning was
the chalk cliffs ofold Albion-buc skies, calm
seas, nocks Of white guls and the welcome
sight of land combined to render the first
view Of a foreign shore, II sensation long to
be remembered. The first land we saw was
the Wolf light and soon after Lands End.
We passed close enough to Falmouth to see
with glass, the houses and shore The green
sward reaching down to the brown cliffs
reminded us of our n L. coast. One point,
land harbor. Many boats arc in sight, large
steamers, a schooner, looking like stately
bird, with all sails set and moving shoreward,
nnumcrabc small crafts with red canvass,
making a picturesque bit Of color against the
blue sky and sea. So in the motly process
sion we move up the shining track. On our
way we passed the Manacles and SAW the
masts of the i'll Mted Mohegan--by the way,
our stewardcss, who is a cute little English
woman, was on board tins vessel when she
was wrecked, and was one lf the few who
werrsavcd.
Our voyage has been a very pleasant one
especially pleasant to me rs | did not cXpcr-
cnCe any of the annoyances of seaslckness.
The table was excellent, in fact we had SO
many good things to eat that one could not
diet very well, each meal served with four or
five courses, Plenty of fresh fish and fresh
fruit.
Each day our stcwardcss prepares salt
bath for us which we enjoy and feel that they
are Strengthening and helpful.
The diningroom, ladies' boudoir and music
room, with gentlemen's smoking room are
all on the second deck the upper deck is
taken up almost entirely with steamer chairs,
while the lower deck is devoted to prone
nading. The ship is complete in all It's ap-
polntments; and one can be as comfortable as
IN a first class hotel, that is, providing they
are not sea sick
The mascot Of the Maniou is q black and
white cat
The sea this morning, our eighth day out,
is so calm that we feel we are on the ship
described in the Ancient Mariner "as idle
as painted boat upon painted ocean," 1t
has been cloudy most of the voyage and the
wild waste Of water looks Ike vast gray
plain, bounded only by the gray clouds ofthe
