Believed In Washington That Watson “’1“ Get Ofl—xiilr. Bryan’s Itinerary—Ex-Congrcssman De- ‘ . clares For McKinley. ATLANTA, Oct, 3. 4The publication in this week’s issue of Thomas E. Watson’s People’s Party Paper, out today. of an edi- torial attack on Chairman Butler of the Populist national committee has excited comment here and is considered significant in view of the rumors aboad that Mr. Wat- son may retire from the ticket. The edi- torial in question is as follows: “Attempts have been made to show that Mr. Watson favored fusion in the state of Indiana. , “This is not correct. Mr. Watson took the position at the beginning of the cam- THOMAS E. WATSON. paign that no Populist could consistently vote for a single Sewall elector any more than he could vote for a Hobart elector. “He filed with Chairman Butler a writ- ten protest against Mr. Butler’s fusion policy. Mr. Butler has ignored 'Mr. Wat- son’s protest and gone steadily forward on his own line. “Mr. Watson’s position is now what it was when the Georgia state convention met. He is for a straight middle of the ‘road ticket. In no other way can the Dem- ocratic managers be forced to abide by the St. Louis contract. “Mr. Watson’s position has been humili- atingand embarrassing, and he has been compelled to submit to policies he did not approve.” The News In Washington. WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-wOflicials at th Democratic and Populist headquarter in this city claim to have no information with regard to the report that Candidate Watson contemplates withdrawing from the vice presidential contest. While none of them desires to be quoted, it is evident the report is thought not well founded. It is, however, considered possible that Mr. Watson, who has opposed fusion in Indiana and other states, may have ex- pressed himself in a way to justify the re- port. The Populist national committee- msn here, however, are quite eluted over the accomplishment of fusion notwith- standing Mr. Watson’s protests. Senator Butler says it indicates the suc- . cess of the committee’s efforts in the states where no fusion has yet been accOmplish- ed, and, above all, that the rank and file of the Populist party will show on election day that they regard the defeat of McKin- ley and gold monometallism as the para- mount question ln the campaign. .- Senator Butler has not yet decided when he will issue his contemplated address, but it will probably follow quickly upon Mr. Bryan’s letter accepting the Populist nomination, which is expected to appear within the next few days.

Buck, chair- man of the Republican state executive committee, issued a circular calling upon the Republicans of Georgia to cast their votes for Seaborn A. Wright, the Populist candidate for governor. The Republicans had decided not to put out a state ticket, and up to the present the leaders of the party hhd indicated no preference as be- tween the Democratio and Populistic can- didates. Chairman Buck’s declaration, however, amounts to _a practical fusion and will undoubtedly have the effect of largely reducing the vets: of Atkinson, the Democratic candidate, in the October elec— tions. South Dakota Gold Democrats. ' HURON, S. D., Oct. 3.—At a conference here of the'National Democratic party the following resolutions were adopted: That We proudly proclaim our allegi- . ance to the principles adopted and promul- gated at the Indianapolis convention; that to further the cause of honest money, the maintenance of national honor and integ- rity and to promote to the extent of our ability the future welfare and prosperity of the nation we deem it best not to place an electoral ticket before the electors of this state in support of the presidential nominee of the National Democratic party.

The Tory government, he said, appears to enjoy advantages de- nied to the Liberals. If the Liberal gov- ernment had liberated these‘men and a new plot had been discovered so quickly, there would have been a universal roar of incredulity and indignation. Drydock Men Strike.

[In is Connected With the Police Depart- ment of Jersey City. 33013. named from his clipped tail, so his ll'ider, Policeman Albert 'Milburn, 533’s. Stopped a runaway horse and saved a man’s life in Jersey City. “Officially I did it, (for I am on the force and Bob isn’t,” said the police- man, “but as a matter of ,fact the horse did it all and carried me along with him.” ‘ ‘ The Policeman was standing at West Side avenue and Broadway when he saw a horse, frightened by the cars, start to run away, just beyond the Pennsylvania Railrbad crossing. It dashed over the tracks and headed to- ward him. In an instant Milburn was in his saddle, but he did not have‘tc guide his horse. “I very rarely use the bridle,” he says. . - Bob, without guidance, started on'a swift canter to meet the runaway, and Milburn let him go his own way. The intelligence of one horse was thus pit~ ted against the frenzy of the other. The runaway was attached to a light wagon, in which sat a man who, hav- ing lost One of the reins, was unable to control him. ' “ non " STOPPING A RUNAWAY. Seeing the other home approach, the runaway swerved around in an ef- fort to escape and dashed back to« ward the railroadcrossing. At that Bob, still without guidance, changed his center to a swift gallop and chased the other horse. He rapidly overhauled the runaway, but the spectators felt a chill of fear, for a train was ap- proaching. ' The other horse had almost reached. the tracks when Bob came abreast. The policeman was about to seize the, bridle when . Bob rushed sidewise against the runaway and pressed him toward the side of the street. The run- away staggered and came to almost a complete halt. A man. who had been standing on the curb grasped the bri- dle and held it fast, just as the train whizzed past. Bob is 'a‘Kentucky horse, six years old,‘and is a handsome bay. He has been connected with the force only four months. ‘ The Intelligent VVitness. : A lawyer had been questioning the witness for some time; and at last got him down to personalities. “Did I understand you to say, sir, that the defendant made certain re- marks about me?" “I said so, sir."' “Ah! Well, now sir, from what you know of me, do you believe these remarks to be strictly true?” “No, sir.” , “Very well. New will you be good enough to state to the court what he did say?” “Yes, sir. He said he thought you were a truthful and honest man.” ‘ WW........ ‘ Is THE HOUSEKEEPER’S FRIEND, .

AN lNTSRNATiONAL‘ ROMANCE. - Begun in the Old Country and Ended Happily in America. - : Many years ago in the market vil- lage of Birkenau, in HeSseDarmstadt Nathan Gutman was a. schoolmaster. He was a stern taskmaster, but to kindly, sympatheitc man, for whom his pupils formed a slcere and lasting affection. Eliza- Goldman, then a dainty miss of sixteen and the favorite daughter of a prosperous burglar, thought much of the handsome young school master, much more than her parents thought proper. Her liking soon developed into love, and, as the young school. master was not proof against her charms, they? became engaged. Her parents’ opposition separated them. Gutman, deepondent and broken-hearted, came to the New World to forget his unfortunate at- tachment and to win fame and for- tune for himself. Time healed his wound, and he married Miss Helene Wolf, and by frugality and hard‘ work saved money and established himseli as a Tammany liquor dealer in New York city. For fifteen years be de voted himself t obusiness, and accu- mulated a fortune. Two years ago his wife died. . ' The dainty Eliza Goldman, in the meantime, at her parents’ command married 21 Samuel Fass, and with her husband came to America and made Brooklyn their home. After, ten years of married life Fass died, and his widow remained at No. 71 Amberg street. l, One of Goldman’s friends, who knew the story of his early disappointmenl in love, told him four months age than the one-time M-lss Goldman, new the widow of Fass, lived in Brooklyn, and Gutman began to act as if he were young again. He bought a gay neck. tie, a fancy vest and lovely crash clothes. Then, after visiting the bar- ber, he went to Brooklyn with elec tricity in his step and an old time longing in his heart. Eliza Fass received him in her besi widow’s gown, and her blushes were as noticeable as in the olden days. A little bit of color and bright ribbons. here and there had brightened up he: attire when he called again, and after a third visit Gutman told his friends he was a happy man, and the en- gagement was announced. No Chance for the Presidency. “Mamma,” said a little Fifth ward boy, lugubriously, the other day as he laid down a volume Of biographical sketches of the-Presidents, “I don’t believe I’ll ever be a president. I ain’t got the chance, I wasn’t brung up right." “Why, child, you have the same chance that other little boys have.” “NO, I ain’t, I wasn’t born in a log cabin, nor I ain’t drove a team on the book by the light of a pine knot, nor had to split rails nor nothin’ like the rest of the boys who got there. I telI you, mother, I’m handicapped on this Presidential business.” From the stress laid on the hard- ships encountered by some of the presidents when boys it is not strange that the juvenile mind should draw a deduction—Elmira Gazette.
