PARTING OF THE WAYS.
Dissatisfied Bryan Democrats and
Populfst Leaders to Meet i'm Ma
tiOnal Conference.

St. Louis, July 11.-After three
conferences held by members of the
executive committee of the Peoples
party, with prominnt Bryan Demo-
Gratis who are dissatisfied, not so
much with the platform as with the
Presidential nomination made by the
Democratic national convention, IL
has bee decided to call a national
conference of Bryan Democratic lead
ers within the next thirty days. to de-
eide on some line OF action during the
coming campaign.
This statement is given to the AS
sociated Press on the authority of
George F. Washburn, of Boston, ma
tional treasurer of the Peoples party
who said the extent of the movement
and the names of those engaged in it
would be made public when the call
for the national conference was issued,
and their prominence. he added, would
be a surprise.
Commenting on Judge Parker's
nomination, Mr.. Washburn said:
Next to Cleveland, the Populists
desired the nomination of Parker. Hts
nomination emphasizes the parting OF
the ways of the allied forces, IN will
help immensely to restore the Popu-
list party to its former strength and
effectiveness

AGGRESSION THE WATCHWORD.
Thomas F.. Ryan OH the Prospects of
the Party-The Fine Attitude OF the
South.

New York, July 11.-Thomas F.
RYAN. who was a delegate from Vfr-
ginia to the Democratic national
convention, reached home here to-
day from st. Louis. Speaking of the
! convention and it's results, Mr.. Ryan
said:
In one brave stroke, with the aid
! of the solid South, Judge Parker has
re-organized and reunited the DEM
! ocratic party. The fact that and
| out most prominently in this reorgan-
lied force is the attitude Of the South,
for the vote on Sunday morning shows
that it is the South which not only
emphasized and asserted the necessity
for a return to financial sanity, but it
has led the way and forced the tight
ing. To see one Southern state after
another-by the accident of alphabet
| voting, standing up for sound finance
hear their delegates leading the de-
mand for it, was certainly grateful to
| one whose faith in the essential pc
litical ~Soundness Of the people of that
section has been a part of his political
| being. There was no longer any fear
to mention or to advocate the gold
| standard, not as some new strange
| thing, it is true, but as a recognition
Of conditions already existent in the
financial policy of our government.
Too much honor cannot be given to
men like Mr.. Williams, Of Mississippi,
| who, in the convention as on the floor
| of the House. has shown himself IL
| zeal leader; to Senators Daniel, Car
| mack, Tillman and many others. But
| the real honors must be awarded to
the people of h South, without whose
| assured cooperation and support this
| auspicious result would AVE been i'm
possible. When the great solid South
| really stands in doctrine, as in votes.
by the side of the conservative Demo-
| cratic forces, it is certain the party
is strong in position, what it means
| not only politically but industrialls,
| cannot now be predicted-it can only
be imagined. -
18th courage, prescience and lead
| ership shown by Judge Parker in the
initiating of this final victory entitle
him to the confidence and support OF
| every American citizen. Never in all
its history a the party entered upon,
a great campaign more auspiciously
than upon the present one. For a
candidate to ave said the right word
at the right moment, and to have
done the right act, just at the time
it was needed, it showed that we are
entering upon a campaign not OF ex-
pediency, in which there are to be
lodging and futile explanations, but
upon one in which aggression will be
the watchword."

Atlanta, Ga, July 11.-Clark How
ell, national Democratic committee
man from Georgia, spoke this evening
for the st. Louis meeting of the COM
mittee, after the adjournment Of the
convention, as follows:
I'm the matter of the selection of
the chairman of the national Demo-
cratic committee, there should be no
room for apprehension hat the choice
will not only be satisfactory to Judge
Parker. the party's nominee, but
more than that, the committee viii

ers expression on the subject.
This Is the first time in many
years-perhaps ever-that the chair
man of the national committee has not
been chosen at the meeting OF the
committee Immediately after the 4
journment OF the national convention.
1t has been the uniform custom that
they organize Immediately after the
adjournment Of the convention for the
choice of a chairman, who has always
been named In accordance with IN
desire of the Presidential nominee
Until the st. Louis convention ad-
journed. II was assumed that Hon.
Thomas T Taggart, Of Indiana, was
the choice of Judge Parker, and the
fact that a majority of the executive
committee favored him grew out OF
that current understanding.
IF IL should develop that Judge
Parker Ices not wish Mr.. Taggart.
but prefers some one else, IL goes
without saying that the committee
will be guided accordingly. at the
meeting TO be held at a later date I'm
New York. If Judge Parker prefers
another TO Mr.. Taggart. the latter win
promptly withdraw his name from
the consideration OF the committee
but this will not be done unless Judge
Parker, as the party's Presidential
nominee. states that ne has I'm view
some one else who would be more
satisfactory to him than Mr.. Taggar1.
who, with the understanding that his
selection would meet the approval OF
Judge Parker, f. the choice Of a ma
jority of the national committee.
MI. Taggart had charge OF Judge
Parker's campaign in Indiana. and 70
was partly through his efforts thar
that pivotal state was among he nrsf
to instruct. He has been I'm close
touch with the Parker movement. ana
no states action contributed more TO
shaping the verdict OF the convention
than did that Of Indiana Hence In

name was presumably IN full accord
with the precedent Of having the NOM

chosen"
