IT Is interesting to examine the prohibition
vote of the United States as cast for President
and Vice-President. The Baltimore american
says: 1.-THE Prohibition party in the Presi-
Dental election of 1900 cast 20s,914. Com
pared with the seven millions cast for McKin.
ley and the six millions cast for Bryan, the
Prohibition figures do not seem large, but they
showed marked increase over those of 1895,
when the total vote was 132007. Four years
before that the Prohibition vote was 264, 13S,
the largest ever cast since the party began to
place Presidential candidates in the field. In
that year-1S92-John Bidwell was the man
at the head of the ticket, and an active cam
paign in his interest was conducted in all parts
of the country. In 1888 Gen. Clinton B. Fisk
received 249907 votes. while John P. st. John,
long central figure in the prohibition ranks,
received 151, 800 votes. The first prohibition
or temperance candidate for the Presidency
was James Black, in 1872, who received only
56OS votes. Four years later, in 1875, Green
G. Smith, was given 9.522, and in 1880 Neal
Dow got IL, 305 votes"
THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION met
in st. Louis at noon on Wednesday, July 9Th,
and was called to order by Chairman Jones, of
the National Committee. Hon. John Sharp
Williams. of Mississippi. the leader of the
minority in the House of Representatives, was
temporary chairman, and spoke for nearly
two hours while the delegates and spectators
sweltered in the hot hall. The permanent
chairman of the convention was Hon. Champ
Clark, of Missouri, who was the scapegoat for
Senator Bailey, of Texas, who was slated for
the place but would not have it. Thursday
was devoted mainly to the hearing of contests
for seats and in the lively fight that ensued
Col. w. ]. Bryan mad opportunities to make
two speeches. His friends in the convention
cheered him long and loud, while his enemies
gave him the cold shoulder and upon vote
being taken on the question at issue Bryan
was badly beaten. The platform was adopted
on Friday, and up to the time THE UNION
went to press that day no nomination had
been made although it appeared to be practi-
cally settled that Judge Parker, of New York,
would head the ticket. There are several as
pirants for the second place and it looks like ex-
Senator Turner, of the State of Washington,
will get it. He is renegade Republican and
Populist, having belonged to both those par
ties before he became Democrat. And the
strangest part about it all is that Senator Cor
man, one of the delegates-at-large from this
State, did not attend the convention but re-
manned quietly at his home in Laurel.
