to go through the forms OF regularity

we have given him the second trial
which his followers desire.
1t has turned out that way. The
Gold Democrats were passengers on

taken hold and are running 1t. There
will be no screaming for Bryan. Web
ster Davis will not set the convention

lurking. Kentucky is the most east

CAMPERS :" Aside from that unyielding
commonwealth, the States which have
expressed for a third time their conn
dence in the free-silVer idea embodied
in Bryan's candidacy are those IN which
the Democratic Party Is mere SHADOW.
Nebraska Itself does not go TO the Con-
vention with much more promise tnan
Vermont OF giving the Democrats any
electoral votes, whatever the platform.
The substantial States Of the Union in
which the Democratic PARTY is IN nght-
ing trim have repudiated Bryan aoout

was repudiated in this country, 10

well as a sane and practical way OF re-
