Previous to the st. Louis convention William
J. Bryan hired ball at his own expense and
made speech in Chicago alleging that Judge
Parker was tool of the trusts, that his candi-
dancy was being engineered By them and urg-
ing that he ought not to be nominated. When
the committee on resolutions Of that conven-
ton (of which he was member met he forced,
after long, long struggle. by vote of IS to
is, the expunging Of the sound money plank
from the platform. Upon Parker's nomina-
tions and after the publication of his famous
telegram saying be considered the gold stand
ard irrevocably established, it was believed
Bryan would bolt. but be was brought to sup
port the ticket. The arguments used are not
known, but it is generally accepted that
Parker's managers are backing his efforts to
be elected to the Senate from Nebraska.
Just how he supports the candidate and the
platform may be seen from the:following ex-
tract from his speech last Tuesday at Omaha,
as furnished by the Associated Press. Holding
the views here enunciated how long will the
gold standard be firmly and irrevocably
established II, with his power, his determine
ton and his influence with Southern and
Western Democrats, as shown for eight years
and markedly 30 in the resolutions committee

Dispatches indicating the election OF Judge
Parker to the Presidency and of a Legislature
in Nebraska favorable to Mr.. Bayan would
hardly cool off the wires before business men
would begin to take in SAIL banks to shorten
their accommodations, enterprises to droop
and commercial distrust and financial timidity
to show themselves in every community. A
panic like that Of 1898 following CIevelands
election would be as certain as that the sun

drawn from where stood. Ihave not changed
my position. I believed these things when
stood before you as q candidate and believe
them today. We got good platform. The
platform at st. Louis is bad only where it
omits to state the party's position on two ques-
tions-on the money question and the income
tax"
Mr.. Bryan gave reasons for not leaving the
Democratic party. saying3 that he thought
he could bring about the reforms he advoca-
ted better by remaining in the party. He
said he agreed with the Populists on many
questions. and with the Socialists on others.

Was there ever such threat against conf

THE PROFITS of the present Standard Oil
Company are enormous For five years the
dividends have been averaging about s45,-
100000 year, or nearly so per cent. on its
capitalization a sum which, capitalized at
five per cent. would give $500, 900. OF
course, this is not all that the combination
makes in year. 1t allows an annual aver
age Of SIT per cent. for deficit, and it carries
always an ample reserve fund. Onethird Of
the profits go to John D. Rockefeller and 20
per cent. go to men whom he controls. The
Standard Oil Company is probably in the
strongest financial position of any aggregation
in the world. Every year its position grows
stronger, for every year there is pouring in
another s45, 900, 900 to be used in wiping up the
property most essential to preserving and
broadening its power.

THAT A great many Democrats in every
quarter are becoming accustomed to voting the
Republican ticket cannot be gainsaid, if any
one win look carefully at the returns. In the
recent Maine election the Democratic news
papers pretended 10 find much comfort in
comparison Of the votes cast by the two par
ties. But the truth is that in 1892 the Demo-
cratic vote for Governor was 55.07s and this
year $3.50. showing loss Of over 800 |;
whilst in 1892 the Republican vote was 81, 600
and this year it was rs. 460-a gain of nearly
1000 votes This is an increase of about III
per cent. although the population ofthe State
has advanced in the same period only about s
per cent. Republican policies are winning
policies.

Hon. HENRY @. PAYNE, Postmaster-G General
of the United States, died at his home in
Washington, on Tuesday evening, from an
affection of the heart, aged 81 years. His
health had been failing for some time. Mr..
Payne was native of Massachusetts, but went
to Wisconsin when a young man and literally
grew up with that State. He becameprom-
inent in business affairs as we'll as in politics
and won for himself enviable position
among the people. Speaking of Mr.. Payne
Secretary of State Hay paid him this high
tribute: HE was man Of such remarkable
uprightness and purity of character that judg-
ing other people by himself, he was slow to
believe evil of any one. But the moment he
was convinced that his confidence had been
betrayed he was most energetic and untiring
in his investigation of wrongdoing in his de-
sire to punish it,"
