and presidential candidate.
Aix hope of ever finding the 58 min
ers alive, who were entombed in the
Tia Snaft, at Pittston, Pa , on June
2-S, has lieen abandoned. The effort to
recover their bodies, howiver is being
pushed as rapidly as posiible.
Ax appalling railroad accident oc
curred Sunday evening at Logan, Iowa,
on the Chicago and Northwestern road,
35 miles east of Omaha, whereby 31
jrsons were killed and 38 injured.
The passenger train of fifteen cliches
was run into by a fast freight and all of
the coaches of the passenger train were
ditched. The conductor of the freight
claims to have had the right of way.
The gavel used by Chairman Harrity
at Chicago was presented by Ossian
Guthrie, of Chicago, and was made
from oak timber taken from old
Tor. Dearborn. The block house from
which timber was taken survived the
great Chicago fire, and was purchased by
Mr. Guthrie and other philanthropic
citizens and re-erected in South Park,
Chicago, as a reminder of the city's
frontier days.
A rASEENGER train on the Lehigh Val
ley railroad, between White Haven and
Hazleton, Fa., ran into a cow on Mon
day afternoon, and the engine and three
cars toppli d over the edge of a high
embankment. Engineer William Doude
received injuries from which he died
6hortly afterwards. Barney Mooney, the
fireman, was serionsly injured, and
more than a score of passengers were
badly hurt. Several of these will die.
Senators Hill, Murphy, Gorman,
Brice and Smith will support Bryan and
Sewall and Tammany will be in line for
the success of the Democracy the same
as it has always been during its long
career. All of the gentlemen mentioned,
a& well as the Tammanyites, rightfully
believe that the success of the Democrat
ic ticket is the best thing for the coun
try now and is preferable to the election
of McKinley and Hobart and a return to
the policy of protection.
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, who was
elected chairman of the Democratic na
tional executive committee, left Chica
go for Washington on Monday, and will
announce from there the executive com
mittee of the national committee, which
will have charge of the campaign
The time and place for the formal noti
fication of the Democratic presidential
and vice presidential candidates has not
yet been detei mined, but will be in
few days. It is stated that personally
Mr. Bryan prefers New York city, and it
it is probably in the second week in Au
gust.
The Democratic national conventioo
which met at Chicago last week, on
Thursday, adopted a platform favoring
free silver at 16 to 1, on Friday nomin
inated William Jennings Bryan, of Ne
braska, as its oandidate for president,
and on Saturday nominated Arthur Se
wall, of Maine, for Vice President,
It is well known to the readers of the
! kef-man that the financial plank is not
what we could have wished for. As
Democrat, however, we bow, for the
time being, to the will of the majority
and accept the candidates of the Demo
cratic convention. In an other portion
of our paper will be found the full text
of the Democratic platform.
. In Minnesota over one hundred Re
publican weekly newsp ipers and several
dalies have bolted tb.-ir party. Only a
few days ago many of the leading Re
publicans of that state including Con
gressman Charles A. Towne, of Duluth,
whose speech in congress last winter
electrified the whole country; the Hon.
John Lind, ex-congressman from the
Second District, the Hon. Frank A.
Day, Lieutenant governor; the Hon.
Frank M. Nye, the late Bill Nye's broth
er, and hundreds of others leading Re
publicans, including many state senators
and members of the legislature joined
in signing a manifesto renouncing all
allegiance to the Republican party.
Such defections in Republican strong
holds will certainly result in the defeat
of the Republican national ticket.
The Republican newspapers are now
publishing columns of stuff relative to
what McKinley will do for the business
interests in this country if elected, all of
which is mere rot, and will catch none
but the most gullible. Even should
McKinley be elected he will be the
merest figurehead. Neither he nor his
party will be able to bring about the en
actment of a single law without the con
curence of the United States senate,
which body they do not control, neither
will they be able to control it for some
years to come. When congress recon
venes, next December, the senate will
contain thirty-nine Democrats thirty
nine Republicans eleven Populists and
unattached silver men. Any change
from these figures will be iu the direc
tion of a reduction of a Republican and
an increase in the silver strength, for it
is probable that those senators from the
silver mining 6tates who refused to bolt
at St. Louis, such as Brown, of Utah,
and Carter and Mantle, of Montana,
will be forced by their constituents to
follow the lead of Teller. Republican
control of the senate therefore, is a thing
pf the past.

It has been f-aid that Wm. Jennings
Bryan, of yebnka, "won fame in an
hour" by his address on the tariff in
congress in March, 1S12, but his race
for fame bgn 12 years prior to that
due, for he was a stiun-nt of political
economy at a very early age and vs on
the stump before he was old enough to
vote
Wm Jennings Bryan was born in St-
lem. Marion cunuty, Illiuois, March 1.',
1800. In 1S77 lie entered Illinois col
lege, and giaduateti as valedictorian in
1SS1. For the next two vears he attend
ed the Union Lw collet, Chicago,
studying in the ollice of Lyman Trum
bull. After graduation he began prac
tice at Jacksonville.
In 18S7 he removed ti Lincoln, Ne
braska, and became a member of the
law firm of Talbot Sc Bryan. He was
elected to congress in the First Nebraska
district in 1S00 over W. J. Connell, of
Omaha, and was re-elected in lS'.'2over
Allen W. Field, of Lincoln. In these
successful campaigus Mr. Bryan won
national fame as an orator. In 1804
Mr. Bryan declined a third nomination.
and was noni inated by the Democratic
state convention frr United States sen
ator by the unanimous vote of the con
vention. The Republicans, however,
had a majority in the legislature, and
Bryan was defeated.
He first appeared in the political arena
of Nebraska in the campaign of 18SS
when he stumped the first district for
J.,SerIiog Morton, nominee for con
gress. The same year he declined a
nomination for lieutenant governor.
Mr. Bryan livts well in a commodious
dwelling in a fashionable part of Lin
coln. His family consists of Mrs. Bry
an; Ruth, aged 11; Wm. J. jr., aged 6,
and Grace, aged 5.
Mr. Bryan is a smooth faced, clean
cut, handsome man, a fine speaker and
a ready debater. In appearance he re
sembles the great Pennsylvania com
moner, Samuel J. Randall. He is an
ardent single taxer.
Mrs. Bryan has also been admitted to
the bar and she is in more senses than
wives usually are a helpmeet to her hus
band. Arthur Sewall, the Democratic nom
inee for vice president, was born in
Bath, Me., his present place of resi
dence, on November 25, 1835. He is
at present the senior member of the ex
tensive shipbuilding firm of Arthur Se
wall fc Co. Mr.Sewall was, for a num
ber of years, president of the Maine Cen
tral railway, and the Portland, Mt.
Desert & Machias steam boat company.
He is a director in several other rail
road lines and president of a national
bank. In brief, Mr. Sewall is one of the
most prominent business men in New
England. He springs - from a pioneer
family of Maine. For some years he
has been an advocate of free coinage.
He has been the Maine memlier of the
Democratic national committee contin
uously since 1SS4.

Senator Jones, of Arkansas, express
es the enthusiastic belief that the Chi
cago ticket will win in November. He
says: "The convention has declared
for free silver and a tariff for revenue
only, and there is no question of our
victory. By adopting a eixteeu to one
platform we absorb the Populist party
and will carry all of heir states, I think,
except possibly Kansas, which has a ten
dency to break into the Republican col
umn again. However, this has never
been counted as a Populist state, and
with the bolting Republican states in the
West, which have never been tallied as
Democratic, I cannot for the life of
me see where we have anything to fear
from McKinley and Hobart."
The Platform.
The following is the full text of the
Democratic platform agreed upou by the
cgmmiitee on resolutions by a vote of
23 to 15 and adopted finally by the con
vention. Wo, the Democrats of the United
States, in ualional convention sissembled,
do re.-irlirm our allegiance t thoe
great c?s niial principles of ju-iice - anu
iiberty upou which L-ur iifctiii;ti"v.s art
foJiidM, and which the Dd iw nii p'r
ly has advocated from JeflrrauU'S
time to our own f r e 1 m i-i .- e h
frertlom of the pre?, ficcJuiu
of conscience, the prese rvaiion of per
sonal ri gbls, the equality of alt ciii.eus
before the 1 w and the faiUUui ooserw
ance of constitutional limit mom.
During all these vears the Democratic
.1 .1 1 ..... . .t
oartv nas reseui-iu me leuueucjr
lis'u interests to f ie cent aliz ition of g v-
ernmenlal power, and steadfastly main
tained the integrity of the dual scheme
of governinem established by the found
ers of the republic of republics. Under
its guidance and teactungs tne great
principle of local self government lias
found its best expression iu the mainte
nance of the rights of the states and in
its assertion of the necessity of confining
the general government to the exercise
of the powers gran ted by the constitution
of the United Suus
MONEY HVESTIOS.
Recoguizing that the money question
is paramount to all others at this time,
we invite attention to the fact that the
federal constitution names silver and
gold together as the money of the Uni
ted Slates, aud that the first coinage law
passed by congress under the constitu
tion made the silver dollar the monetary
unit and admitted gold to free coinage i
at a ratio based upon the silver dollar
unit.
We declare that the act of 1S73, de
monetizing silver without the knowledge
or approval of the American people, has
resulted in the appreciation of gold aud
a corresponding fall in the price of com
modities produced by the people; a
heavy increase in the burden of taxa
tion and of all debts, public and private;
the enrichment of the money lending
class at home and abroad; the prostra
tion of industry and impoverishment of
the people.
We are unalterably opposed to mono
metallism which has locked fast. the
prosperity of an industrial people in the
paralysis of hard times Gold mono
metallism is a British policy, and its
adoption has brought other nations into
financial servitude to London. It is not
only un-American, but anti-American,
and it can be fastened ou the United
States only by the stifling of that spirit
of love of liberty which proclaimed our
political independence in 1776 and won
it iu the war of the revolution.
FREE SILVER COINAGE DEMANDED.
We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of both gold and silver at the
present legal ratio of sixteen to one,
without waiting for the aid or consent
of any other nation. We demand that
the standard silver dollar shall be full le
gal tender equally with gold for all debts,
public and private, and we favor such
legisliitiou as will prevent for the future
the demonetization of any kind of legal
tender money by private contract.
We are opposed to the policy and
practice of surrendering to the holders
of the obligations of the United States
the option reserved by law to the gov
ernment of redeeming such obligations
in either silver coin or gold coin.
We are opposed to the issuing of in
terest bearing bonds of the United States
in time of peace, and condemn the
trafficking with banking syndicates,
which, in exchange for bonds and at an
enormous profit to themselves, supply
the federal treasury with gold to main
tain the policy of gold monometallism.
Congress alone has the power to coin
aDd issue money and President Jackson
declared that this power could not be
delegated to corporations or individuals.
We tnerefore demand that the power to
issue notes to circulate as money be ta
ken from the national banks, and that
all paper money shall be issued directly
by the treasury department, be redeem
ed in coin and receivable for all debts
public and private.
We hold that tariff duties should be
levied for purposes of revenue, such du-
duties to be so adjusted as to operate
equally throughout the country and not
aiscnminate between class or section,
and that should be limited by the needs
of the government honestly and econo
mically administered.
MCKINLEY LAW DENOl'NCED.
We denounce as disturbing to busi
ness the Republican threat to restore the
McKinley law which has twice been con
demned by the jieople in natioual elec
tions, and which enacted uader the false
plea of protection to home iudu?try,
proved a prolific breeder of trusts and
monopolies, enriched the few at the ex
pense of the many, restricted trade and
deprived the producers of the great
American staples of access to their nat
ural markets.
. Until the money question is settled,
we are opposed to any agitation for
further changes in our tariff laws ex
cept such as are necessary to meet the
deficit in revenue caused by the adverse
decision of the supreme court on the in
come tax. But for this decision by the
supreme court, there would be no defi
cit in the revenue under the law passed
by a Democratic oongress in strict pur
suance of the uniform decisions of tha t
court for nearly 100 years, that court
ha ving io that decision sustained con
stitutional objections to its enactment
which had previously been overruled by
the ablest judges who have ever sat on
that bench. We declare that it is the
duty of congress to use all the constitu
tional power which remains after that
decision, or which may come from its
reversal by the court as it may hereafter
be constituted, so that the burdens of
taxation may be equally and imparti
ally laid, to the end that wealth may
bear its due proportion of the expenses
of the government.
TOREIGN PAl'PER LABOR.
We hold that the most erhcien: way
of protecting American labor is to pre
vent the importation of foreign pauper
labor to compete with it in the home
market and that the value of the home
market to our American farmers and
artisans is greatly reduced by a vicious
money system, which depresses the
prices of their products below the cost of
production, and thus deprives them of
the oceans of purchasing the products of
our home manufactures.
The absorption of wealth by the few,
the consolidation of our leading railroad
systems aad the formation cf trus s and
pools require a stricter control by the
federal government of these arteries ot
commerce. e demand the enlarge
ment of the powers of the interstate
commerce commissiom and such re
strictions and guarantees to the control
of railroads as will protect the people
irom robbery ana oppression.
We denounce the proflgate waste of
the money wrung from the people by op
pressive taxation and the lavish appro
priations of receDt Republican congress
es, which have kept taxes high, while
the laborer that pays them is unemploy
ed and the products of the people''
toil are depressed in price till they no
longer repay the cost of production.
SIMPLICITY AND ECONOMY DEMANDED
We demand a return to that simplicity 1

We favor the admission of the territo
ries of New Mexico and Arizonia into
the Union as states aud we favor the 1
early admission of all territories having j
the necessary population and resource to
e ititie them to statehood and, while
they remain territories, we hold that the
o'fcials appointed to administer the gov-
e nment of any territory together with J
the District of Columbia ana Alaska,
should be bona fide residents of the ter
ritory or district in which the duties are
to be performed. The Democratic party :
believes in home rule and that all pub- ;
lie lanas or me unuea Bi&ies s iouia re
appropriated to the establishment of free
homes for American citizens.
We recommend that the territory of
Alaska be era n ted a delegate in conirress
and that the general land and timber !
laws of the United States be extended to
said territory.
We extend our sympathy to the peo
ple of Cuba in their heroic struggle for
liberty and independence.
ADMINISTRATION OF THE CIVIL SERVICE.
We are opposed to life tenure in the
pubic service. We favor appointments
based upon merit, fixed terms of office
and such an administration of the civil
sarvice laws as will afford equal oppor
tunities to all citizens of ascertained fit
ness. We declare it to be the unwritten law
of this republic, established by custom
and usage of 100 years and sanctioned '
by the examples of the greatest and
wisest of those who founded and have '
maintained our government, that no j
man should ls eligible for a third term
of the presidential office.
Tne federal government should care
for and improve the Mississippi river and
other great water ways of the republic,
so as to secure for the interior states easy
and cheap transportation to tide water.
When any water way of the republic is
of sufficient importance to demand aid '
of the government, such aid bhould be
extended upon a definite plan of contin
uous work until nermanent imnrove- 1
ment is secured.
Confiding in the justice of our cause
and the necessity of its success at the
polls we submit the foregoing declara- !
tion of principles and purposes to the
considerate judgment of the American
people. We invite the support of all
citizens who approve them and who de
sire to have them made effective through '
legislation for the relief of the people and
t ie restoration of tro ivtnntrv'a nrncnori. .

TlieMjKtfry or a R til road Train.
Washington, July 13. Harry J. Po
cock, for many yea re register of St.
Louis, died suddenly Saturday night on
a train in Ohio, between Athens and
Parkersburg. His remains were left at
the latter city. Mr. Pocock retired ap
parently ia good health. About 11
o'clock deputy United States commis
sioner of pensions, was, awakened by an
agonizing shriek from 'the upper berth
occupied by Pocock. The latter tumbled
from his berth into the aisle and died
soon after. The lower part oc the berth
occupied by Pocock contained two wo
men, who were discovered in the act of
ransacking the dead man's clothes.
They claimed to be relatives of Pocock,
but later admitted this to be false.
They were arrested on the charge of
petit larceny, with the assumption that
they had doped Mr. Pocock for the pur
pose of robbing him. They had $518,
which was supposed to have been taken
from the dead man's clothes.
Crashed Into a Funeral.
Brooklyn, July 12 A crowded Flat
bush avenue trolley car bound for Ber
gen Beach, crashed into a hearse head
ing a funeral procession, opposite the
Willink entrance of Prospect Park this
afternoon. The hearse was smashed,
the coffin was hurled ten feet into the
air, and throw to the sidewalk and bro
ken open. The body rolled half out of
the casket before the eyes of the widow
and other mourners, and the thousands
of people who crowded the park en
trance. The funeral was that of Don Haas, a
sailor of Hoboken, who was drowned in
the Hudson river a few days ago, and
the procession was on its way to Wash
ington cemetery when the accident oc
curred. The undertaker was badly
bruised, and several passengers in the
trolley car were injured.

Washinotos, July .5. It can be
stated by authority that Secretary Her
bert will not support the ticket uoiiii
nated by the Chicago convention.
Assistant Secretary Hamlin of the
treasury department has given out a
short statement this afternoon iu ex
planation of his tositioii with regard in
the. Democratic platform aud nomina
tions. Inasmuch aR Mr. Hamliu tepveented
the administration forces at the Chicago
convention, and as he. has been in fre
quent consultation with Secretary Car
lisle over the political Mtnation Mnce,
the adjournment of the convention, the
statement made by him will undoubt
edly o. accepted by many as a seini-fcfti-cial
declaration of the position of the
sound money men of the administ ra
tion. This impression is further
strengthened by the belief that. Mr.
Hamlin has seen Presiilent Cleveland
since the, adjournment of the conven
tion. He spent several days at Marion,
near Gray Gables, on his way lack to
Washington from Chicago.
The statement referred to is as fol
lows : "No political issue is involved
in the coming election. The question
to he decided is far deeper and more
vital. The perpetuity of the Republi
can institutions has been threatened.
Every loyal citizen should ally himself
against the forces which controlled the
Chicago convention ; forces of lawless
ness, which are. inconsistent with the
maintenance of the republic.
'Henceforth there should tie no Re
publican no Democrat. hut a union
of loyal citizens against the combined
force of repudiation and disorder.
When once this dangerons element has
been stamped out, at the polls by an in
dignant people we can again divide and
discuss those political questions which
for generations have kept alive the two
great political parties."

II arrisburq. Pa., July 13. The
board of pardons still has unow advise
ment the case of John fcurosley. A
special meeting will fcoon be held to
take up this and several other import
ant cases which have been under con
sideration for some time. They will be

lact meeting until the middle of Sep
tember. The greatest interest is attached to
Eardsley's case because of his promi
nence and the character of the crime.
The pretsure for his pardon has been so
great as to cause a general belief that
he will be given his freedom.
The board is said to be disposed to
recommend Bardsley for executive
clemency ; but there is serious doubt
Governor Hastings would approve the
recommendation. If be should indicate
a willingness to pardon the famous em
bezzler, then there ia no doubt of the
board's action.
On the other hand, if the executive
is net favorably disposed to the efforts
to secure Bardslry's release, the appli
cation will be refused
