Dill-N lG_llN_ ACCEPTS This Time It Is the Nomination on the People’s Party TiCKet. A PLEA roe CO-OPERATION. He Urges His Adherents to Devise Means ‘ by Which the Silver Vote May Be Concentrated Upon but One Elect- oral Ticket In Each State. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 5.-—On his arrival here. Candidate William J. Bryan gave out for publication the following letter of accept- ance of the Populist nomination for presi~ dent: Hon. William V. Allen, Chairman, and Others, Members of the Notification Committee of the People’s Party: GENTLEMEN—The nomination of the People’s Party for the presidency of the United States has been tendered me in such a generous spirit and upon such hon- orable terms that I am able to accept the same without departing from the plat- form adopted by the Democratic national convention at Chicago. I fully appreciate the breadth of patriotism which has ac- tuated the mem hers of the People’s Party, who, in order to consolidate the sentiment in favor of bimetallism, have been willing to go outside of party lines and support as their candidate one already nominated by the Democratic party and also by the Sil- ver party. I also appreciate the fact that while during all the years since 1873 a large ma- jority of the Democratic party and a con- slderable minority of the Republican party have been consistent advocates of free ’ coinage of silver at the present ratio, yet ever since the organization of the People’s Party its members have unanimously sup- ported such coinage as the only means of restoring himetallism. By persistently pointing out the disastrous effects of the gold standard and protesting against each successive step toward financial bondage the Populists have exerted an important influence in awakening the public to a realization of the nation’s present peril. In a time like this, when a great polit- ical party is attempting to surrender the right to legislate for our views upon the financial question and is seeking to bind the American people to a foreign mone- tary system, it behooves us as lovers of our country and friends of American in- stitutions to lay aside for the present such diflerences as may exist among us on mi- nor questions in order that our strength may be united in a supreme effort to wrest the government from the hands of those who , imagine that the nation’s finances are only secure when controlled by a few financiers and that national honor can only be maintained by servile acquiescence in any policy, however destructive to the interests of the people of the United States, which foreign creditors, present or prospective, may desire to force upon us. It is a cause for congratulation that we have in this campaign not only the sup- port of Democrats, Populists and Repub- licans who have all along believed in in- dependent bimetallism, but also the active , co-operation of those Democrats and Re- publicans who, having heretofore waited for international himetallism, now join with us rather than trust the destiny of the nation to those who are holding out the deluslve hope of foreign aid while they labor secretly for the permanent establish‘ ment of the single gold standard. While difficulties always arise in the settlement of the details of any plan of co- operation between distinct political organ- izations, I am sure that the advocates of bimetallism are so intensely in earnest that they will be able to devise some means by which the free silver vote may be concentrated upon one electoral ticket in each state. To secure this result, chari- ty toward the opinions of others and lib- erality on the part of all is necessary, but honest and sincere friends who are work- ing toward a common result always find it possible to agree upon just and equita- ble terms. The American people have proved equal to every emergency which has arisen in the past, and I am confident that in the present emergency there will be no antagonism between the various regiments of the one great army which is marching to repel an invasion more dan- gerous to our welfare than an army with banners _ Acknowledging with gratitude your ex- pressions of confidence and good will, I am, very truly yours. W. JUBRYAN. CHAIRMAN DOUD DBPOSBD. Silver Friendly \Vith the Republicans. WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-—A telegram has been received at the headquarters of the National Sliver party from Chairman Stevens dated Chicago, in which he re- quested the secretary to immediately no- tify Mr. M. F. Doud of St. Louis, nation- al committeeman cf the Silver party for Missouri, that he was removed from his office and that the executive committee there, headed by Mr. J. D. Clarkson, be recognized as the head of the Silver party for that state. This was not entirely unexpected at the Washington headquarters, as trouble has been brewing for some time, owing. it is said at the Silver headquarters here, tothe constant rumors that Doud was too friend- ly with the Republicans and was attempt- ing to merge the Silver party into the Re- publican party. Chairman Stevens in his telegram stated that Mr. Doud was attempting to run an independent election, and for that reason he should be removed and the Clarkson wing recognized. Mr. Albert P. Taylor, assistant secretary of headquarters in Washington, immediately wired Mr. Doud of Chalrman Stevens' action, and also wired Mr. J. D. Clarkson of his recogni- tion as chairman of the Silver party in the state of Missouri. Mr. Taylor states that the trouble origi- nated some time ago, when the executive committee of Missouri formally deposed Doud, but nothing definite was done un- til last Tuesday, when the Clarkson wing was requested to act as the representatives of headquarters during the convention of Democratic and Silver clubs held in St Louis. Chairman Stevens' decision, it is said, is final and will not be recalled. T0 NAME A FULL STATE TICKET, All Arrangements Made For the Connecti- . cut Gold Democrats’ Convention.

Cary of Ridgcfield, Colonel H. Holton Wood of Derby and ex-Mayor Os- good of Norwich. Lewis Sperry, ex-con- gressman, will be nominated for congress- man in the First district, and the other district nominees will probably be George M. Gunn of Milford,, Hon. David A. Welles of Norwich and Charles A. Can- field of Bridgeport. The temporary chairman of the conven- tion will he ex-Governor Thomas M. Waller of New London, and he will also probably be made permanent chairman. Colonel H. Holton Wood of Derby will be the con- vention’s secretary. ' . Connecticut Populisto. NEW HAVEN, Conn, Oct. 5.—The Con- necticut Populists held their state conven- tion in Building Trades hall Saturday and indorsed the state platform of two years ago and after listening to the report of W.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 5.-—The Democrat- ic students of the University of Pennsyl- ‘vania, who are organized under the title of the University Democratic club, held a mass meeting in Houston hall on the col- lege campus yesterday to decide whether they will support Bryan and Sewali or Palmer and Buckner. About 200 mem- bers were present, and after discussion a vote was taken, the result being a victory for the Bryanites. Resolutions were passed pledging the club to actively support Bryan and Sewall, and arrangements were made for a public meeting in the Academy of Music. Sewall “'ell Satisfied. BATH, Me., Oct. 5,—Mr. Arthur Sew- ali, the Democratic candidate for vice president, has returned home from his trip to NewYork with Mr. Bryan. To your representative Mr. Sewall expressed himself as being well satisfied with the political situation throughout the country and believes that everything points to the success of the. Democratic ticket. “The real battleground of the campaign,”.said he, “is just where it has been from the be- ginning, in the central west. Advices from that section are of a most encourag- ing character. ” Sewall Didn't Contribute. NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—-A little bubble industriously circulated by somebody con- nected with Democratic national head-- quarters was ruthlessly punctured yester- day. It was to the effect that Arthur Sewall, Mr. Bryan’s running mate, had made a contribution of $20,000 to the na- tional campaign fund through Treasurer St. John. The latter promptly denied that Candidate Sewall had subscribed that sum or any other sum and said that the story was without any foundation. At Republican Headquarters.

State Senator Hale and J. W. McGavock, two of the five members of the Populist committee, finally agreed to ac- cept the entire Democratic electoral ticket. Hale will withdraw as a candidate for congress in the Fifth district, and both he and McGavock will stump the state for the Democratic ticket. Danforth on the “rotten. NEW YORK Oct. 5. —Chairman Dan- forth, in addition to making a vigorous protest against the use of the title, ”Na- tional Democratic party'” by the sound money Democrats, is also keeping his eye open for colonization schemes, which, he says, are being put up by the Republican national and state committees. Populist Electors Bolt Bryan. DALLAS, Oct. 5.-——Judge Woods, the Populist elector at large, and Mariam M.

ATHENS, Oct. 5.—Insurgentl under firoutes recently fought and killed 50 Turkish soldiers near Grevena. ‘ x"',l Too I‘rOmisingi to be True. It is claimed that. a French engineer. has discovered a process for solidify- ing petroleum to be used as fuel. It is pressed into cakes, and may be stored away like cordwood. It is not affected by heat or cold, and burns ab- solutely without odor or smoke. These cakes can be pressed into any Shape or size, and when set on fire burn very slowly, but with the most intense heat. There is no evaporation or ex- plosive quality about them, and they will burn with very little draft. So concentrated is the heat in them that it is .said that a vessel carrying a thousand tons of this fuel could sail around the world without renewing its stores. The inventor of this ma- terial declares that a ton of it equals thirty tons of coal, and as the esti- mated cost is not over ten dollars a ton, it follows that steel may be man- ufactured at a much less expense than at present. Indeed, five hundred pounds of this fuel at a cost of th0 dollars would melt a. ton of metal. If the claims for this new fuel are sub- stantiated, a reVOlution in manufac- tures is begun, and all persons who have occasion to consume a great amount of fuel will find their expen- ditures greatly decreased. As a household heating material it would be unapproachab’le, while in the man- ufactures and arts its value can as yet scarcely be computed. Surprise 011 Both Sides.

The metaphor that struck our ances- tors as so admirable strikes us still, and we continue to use rthe apt adjec- tive which, first given by Shakes- peare or Milton, sounds as fresh to- day as When originally applied. The “bubble reputation,” the “itch- ing palm,” “the milk of human kind- ness,” the “undiscovered country,” the “green-eyed monster," still our favor- ite-synonyms for fame, covetousness, humanity, eternity and jealousy, are from Shakespeare, who has indeed furnished us with much of our small coin. His adjectives are the most apposite, too, of any in the language. Quoting him, we speak of on “ancient grudge,” of “bated breath,” “this work- ing-day world,” good set terms,” “a foregone conclusion,”- “better days,” “fell purpose,” “even—handed justice,” “golden opinions,” “a. charmed life,” “a towering passion,”- ‘ia round, un— varnished tale," “hairbreadth‘ ’scapes,” and many more common expressions whose list it were but “damn-able iter- ation” to extend. .Velbal phrases of his are also of the most familiar. To “dance attendance,”- Ito “scotch the snake, not kill it,” to “applaud to the 00110,” to “sup with horrors,” to “die in harness,"— “making night hideous,” “a tale unfold,”- to “out-Herod Herod,” to “fool to the top of his bent." to “cudgel one’s brains,” to “speak by the car ,”- are some of the most obvious examples.
