10 TO | A DEAD ISSUE.
Hon. Abe Jones DenOunceS This Plank
of the Kansas City Platform.

1t is a grand thing that some are so
wise that they can inform ordinary
mortals what it requires to be demo-
GRAFT; and unless they believe in 16 70
they are N. G. yet, there are quite
a.number who imagine that they have
slight idea of true democracy fully
as much as an editor or politician
and it is an old saying that advice
given before it is asked for is mot
worth half price. - Jefferson and
Lincoln are often quoted and none too
much (for no greater statesmen and
patriots ever lived) but did either
ever utter single word about 16 TO
1? No, that is of recent birth,
brought into existence by silver mine
owners and populists. In 1896 there
was a scarcity of money and some rea-
son for desiring more silver. In 1900
nature in her bounteous generosity,
had supplied the deficiency and is still
doing so. If the condition of the
country ever requires more money
then will be the time for l6 TO or
some other ratio to become an import
ant plank in platform. Are poll
teal platforms like the laws of the
Modes and Persians? Or should they
be changed when existing circum-
stances required. The wise instruc-
tors on platforms and the pure unal-
loyed faith remind one of the old
story that some are still voting for
Andrew jackson. The wise men ad-
nit that 16 to l is not an issue, that
its grip is gone, but because it was in
a platform some years ago it should
always stay there, and if you don't
swallow the whole dose you are an
invalid that should be treated by
some doctor who is not a democrat OF
the latter day saints. The claim that
5000, coo voted for the Kansas City
platform without objection is prepos-
ferrous. What are the facts? 1t is
true that many votes and it is also
true that in that great Kansas City
convention, packed TO overfiowing,
the 16 to / plank after much debating
and after it was learned the candidate
would not accept unles he could ride
that plank, was admitted by just
one majority. That the vote was so
large was not due to love of the Is to
plank but to Mr.. Bryan's superb elo-
quence, personal magnetism, and high
standing as man. In my political
speeches this fall shall advocate the
Kansas City platform, minus the dead
duck hanging like mill stone around
it's neck, in other words Is to l. If on
that account / am not allowed to vote
the democratic ticket, 1 shall submit
to the inevitable as gracefully as pos
sible and endeavor not to allow my
self to indulge in "weeping-wailing
and crashing of teeth. "

Smith-Epps fight for City S Sergeant. and.
as most Of tho ]. bets OF the campaign
hinged som ewhat on this contest, some
s., 600 of the $500 or 1900 which was bet
is tied up
Mr. Claiborne Epps figured in two ways
in tho betting. IN the first place, there
we1e several bets, ranging from $50 to
300. on the result of his tight with Mr..
Smith, and i'll addition to this there was
some $1,0c0 wagered on the Epps conlbi-.
nation-that is, for Mr.. Claiborne Epps
and for Mr.. John e. Epps, both to win.
This money Is tied up,-together with the
straight bets on the result. Since Mr..
Cloves yesterday announced his desire;
for recount, bets which have been made.
on this fight between Mr.. Cloves and Mr..
Camp have been tied up: :. s
Several hundred dollars changed hands
on the vote Of Captain Mccarthy. MOST
Of tho betting was whether or not he
would poll a vote of 2,5oO or more. These
bets have all been paid, his actual vote
having been nearly $500 One man lost
$400 on this betting his bets having been
scattered over the city generally, with
half a dozen others.
Now it seems. since disputes have aris-s
on, that no further bets will be paid un-
til after the recount It is held to be
possible that other recounts will be called
for, and results may be changed in more
than one instance. Shareholders general
+ ly have been asked by both Sides to keep
the stakes until the committee announces
the result.
