The Populist Candidate.
At this late period in the campaign
Mr. Bryan has made up his mind for-
mally to accept the nomination 0f the
Populist party. The appearance of
his letter 6f acceptance, suggests the
conclusion that he has abandoned {any
thought he may have had of the possi-
bility of his election by Democratic
votes and is making a last efi‘ort tolrally
the disorganized Populists to his sup-
port. ;
In the two months and more which
he has taken to write this letter, he
hassucceeded in eliminating from it any
intelligible or intelligent idea except
one, the necessity of fusion among the
various groups that are in favor of
“free silver,” that mystic panacea
which he proclaims with ever increas-
ing obscurity. He does the Populiste
thejustice to say that while some Be-
publicans and many Democrats have
favored cheap money, the Populists
have been unanimous for it from the
first, and are therefore entitled to his
particular consideration. \ .
Mr..Bryan's other nominations may
be regarded as but indorsements of this
leading idea of Populism and-he advises
his friends to set aside their minor dif-
ferences and rally arohnd the silver flag.
It appears that the attemps at fusion
have been less successful than was ex-
pected in many rif- ithe ' Statesandr'i'ther
difficulty of ‘r'econcili ng . the - two -tick‘-‘
ate, with their rival candidates for
Vice Presidents, has not yet been
overcome. Though Mr. Bryan makes
no mention of Watson or Sewall, his
letter may be taken as a plea for ’
an amicable adjustment, and particu-
‘ larly for the pac:fication of Watson. . It
is this only that gives significance to
the letter, which otherwise is remark-
able mainly as an example of the
number of phrases that may be em-
ployed without the expression of one
clear thought.

Extras !
The Sentinel, News and Hour, ran
out Extras this morning. The "grand
old mischief maker" of lenses Place,
broke hisSabbath rest and spent fifty
dollars, it is said, in getting out a Mon-
day day-light edition, to prove that
Light is honest and truthful when he
promises to keep his oath as to enforc-
ing No License, but is a close rival of
his assailant as a prevaricator, as to
school consolidation.

His Maiden civil Case.
In the civil case of Eugene Laflin vs.
John Palmer, Judge Frost has ren-
deredjudgement for the defendant to
recover costs. A notice of an appeal
was allowed, the same to be entered on
or before October 8th, accompanied by
a bond of 3525. Attorney Leo Davis ap-
peared for the defendent, and it was his
maiden case in a civil suit, and quite
naturally he feels highly elated over
the decision. ’_

A few years ago nearly .all newspapers
published, at this season, recrpes for summer
complaints. Now such items are seldom
met with. Publishers have learned that
there is nothing quite as good as Chamber-
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
for these diseases and as it is in general use
everywhere they have quit publishing these
recipes. No one havin a bottle of the
remedy in the house n ‘ fear an attack of
bowel complaint. It can always be depended
upon and is pleasant and safe. For‘ sale by
