    THE SCEANTON TRIBUNE-FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 10, 1806.

' Concluded from Pago 1.
They say that wo are opposing the Na
tional bank currency. It Is true. Thomas
IScnton said that In searching history he
could lind but one parallel to Andrew
Jackson. When Cicero destroyed the con
("piracy of Catiline and saved Rome, he
did for Kome what Jackson did when he
destroyed the bank system and saved
America. We say In our platform that tho
right to coin and issue money Is a func
tion of government. We believe that that
power of sovereignty can no more, with
safety, be delegated to private corpora
tions than the power to enact penal stat
utes or to levy taxation. 11 r. Jefferson,
who was once regarded ns a good Demo
cratic authority, seems to have a differ
ent opinion from the senator from New
York.
TUB FUNCTION OF DANK3.
"They tell us that the Issuance of paper
money is the function of tho banks and
that the government ought to go out of
the banking business. I stand with Jeffer
son and tell them, as he did, that the Is
sue of money Is a function of government,
and that the hanks ought to go out of tho
governing business. (Cheers and laugh
ter). "The senator trom New York asRs about
the consequence of a failure to maintain
parity. My reply is that we cannot couple
the plat.form with a doubt as to our own
sincerity. He says he wants to try this
country to secure an International agree
ment. Why does he not tell us what ho
Is going to do If they full to secure it.
(Applause).
"They have tried for twenty years to
secure international agreement. Why
does ho not tell us what ho Is going to do
If he fulls to eecure It? (Applause). They
have tried fur twenty years to secure an
international ugreemciit for bimetallism,
and those are waiting for It most patient
ly who don't want it ut all. (Applause and
laughter).
"If they ask us why we say more on the
money uuestion than on the. tariff ques
tion, we reply that if protection has slain
Its thousands, the gold standard has sluln
Us tens of thousands. (Cheers).
"Why Is it that within three months
such a change has come over the senti
ment of this country? Three months ago
It was asserted that those who believed
the gold standard would frame a plat
form und nominate and elect a candidate,
and they had good reason for the asser
tion. Because there Is scarcely a state
hero 1oilny asking for a gold standard
that s not within tho absolute control of
the Republican party, llr. .YIcKluley was
nominated at St. I.ouls on a platform
which declures for the maintenance of the
gold standard until It shall be changed
Into bimetallism by International agree
ment. Mr. McKlnley wits the most popu
lar man among the Republicans, and
three months ao everybody In tho Ke
publlcun party prophesied his election.
PERSONAL I'OI'I'LAUITY POWER
LESS. "Why this change? Ah, my frlcr.Js. the
change Is ovldert to anyone who looks
at the matter. 1: Is beeausn no private
chnraotbr, however pure, no personal pop
ularity, however Blent, can protect from
the avenwlns wrath of an Indlgnunt peo
ple, the man who would declare that he is
In favor of foisting thn gold standard on
this people: or who is willing to Biirremler
tho right of nelf-govprnmem and to place
legislative control In the hands of for
eign potentates and power, cannot hope
for nn election to the presidency of tho
United Staes. (Cheets). We go forth,
said tho orator, confluent that we shall
win. "Why? Heeatisc- there is not n spot
of ground upon which the advocates of
the gold stan. laid can meet us.
"You tell us the great titles are In fa
vor of a gold standard. Burn down yonr
cities und leave our firms and your cities
will grow In oreiy city of the- Union.
(Great cheering). We shall declare that
this nation Is sble to legislate lor its
people upon every question without wait
ing for the ronscnt of tiny other nation,
and we thereby expect to carry every
state in this great nation.
THE ISSUE OF 177(1.
"It is the Irsuo of 1770 over again. Our
nncestots, when only three millions, de
clared their Independence of every na
tion on earth. Shall we, when we have
grown to seventy millions, have less cour
age? We shall answer their demand for
the gold standard by saying to them:
'You shall not pi.ss down upon the brow
of labor this ciutvn of thorns. You shall
not crucify mankind upon a cross of
gold.' " (Tremendous cheers).
GREAT DEMONSTRATION.
Then Issued perhaps the most extra
ordinary scene of this extraordinary
convention. As If by the magic touch
of a wand, delegation after delegation
rose In solid phalanx and gave vent to
the most enthusiastic demonstration In
honor of the Nebraskan orator. Every
body stood up, even the eastern ' men,
who at first were disposed to remain
In their seats. Westerners shouted,
waved handkerchiefs, Hags, canes, um
brellas and anything else conspicuous
and portable. Deafening cheers rent
the air, articles of every description
were thrown high above the surging sea
of humanity. The staffs bearing the
names of the states were held aloft with
flags and other things on top and waved
to and fro. When that pastime became
too tame, led by Delegate Wood, of
Texas, nearly all of the Bilver states
and territories and some of the gold
states Joined In the procession bearing
the state poles and marched In triumph
around the floor. Some of the eastern
states kept their sign staffs In their
places and confined their expressions to
standing up and giving a mild cheer as
Individuals.
Mr. Hill required a call of states on
his proposed fin .nclal plank. At 3.15 p.
m. the voting began upon Mr. Hill's
proposed substitute for the free coin
age plank. It resulted: Ayes 303, nays
626. Mr. Hill said he did not desire a
call of states upon his financial amend
ments, but he did desire a vote by states
on the resolutions commending the ad
ministration. The second roll call was
begun at 3.47. The result of the roll call
on the resolution endorsing the admin
istration was anounced: Ayes 357, nays
564, not voting and absent nine. Total.
930.
At 4.37 p. m. the roll of states was
called on the adoption of the platform
as reported by the committee on reso
lutions. The result was announced:
664, not voting and absent, nine. Total,
830.
At 4.47 p. m. the convention took a re
cess until 8 p. m.
THE EVENINQ SESSION.
Nominating Eloquenc Bubbles Over.
The Candidates Named.
The masses of spectators at this even
ing's seslon were even If poslble more
dense, and the excitement more Intense
than at any previous meeting of the
convention, because the crisis of the
nomination speeches, and of balloting
for presidential candidates had arrived.
There was not a vacant seat outside
of the sections for delegates and alter
nates a) 8 o'clock.
The convention was called to order at
8.30 p. ly. by Its presiding officer, Sena
tor Wh te, of California, who Immedlte,
ly hancl'd over the gavel to Represen
tative Richardson, of Tennessee, who
acted tJb president pro tern this even.
Ing ad well as durlnar the momlnc aea.
Ion.
The Chairman Informed h xnnvon.
tkro that the roll of states would bow
x -
be called so that nominations for can
didates for the presidency should be
made. By an agreement entered into
by the friends of the several candi
dates, the chairman added, the nomina
tions and seconding speeches would be
confined to thirty minutes in length,
which time might be eased either when
the nominations were made or when
the state of the speaker was called.
BLAND'S CHAMPION.
Senator Vest, of Missouri, was the
first delegate to ascend the platform,
even before the call of states had got
farther In the alphabetical list than
the state of Arkansas. Mr. Vest spoke
as follows:
Senator Vest said: Revolutions do
not begin with the rich and prosperous.
They represent the protest of those
who are suffering from present condi
tions, and whose demands for relief are
denounced by the beneficiaries of un
just and oppressive legislation.
When a profound sense of wrong,
evolved from years of distress, fastens
upon the public mind In a free country,
nnd the people are determined to have
redri'FS, a lender Is always found who
Is a platform In himself, and to whom
they Instinctively turn as the loyal
exponent of their hopes.
The people are not Iconoclasts, not
false to their convictions.
They followed Jefferson when ho as
sailed the centralizing and monarchial
doctrines of the old Federalists, and
was denounced as a communist and lev
oiler by the wealth and culture of New
England and New York.
They followed Jackson when he took
the United States bank by the throat,
and was proclaimed a tyrant and ruf
linniliy the usurers and money kings.
They followed Lincoln when ho at
tacked the slave power, and declared
that this country could not exist half
slave and half free.
The) great movement for bimetallism
the free nnd unlimited colnuge of sil
ver nnd gold at the ratio of 16 to 1-r
and the restoration of silver to its con
stitutional status. Is
"No sapling chance sown by the foun
tain, Blooming at Beltane, in winter to
fade."
It has come to stay. It Is a protest
against the wrong and outrage of 1X73,
when, without debate, and with the
knowledge of only a few men In con
gress the silver dollar was stricken
from the coinage, and the red despot of
gold made supreme as to all values.
It Is a declaration by tho free men
of America that the United States must
withdraw from the conspiracy which
was formed to destroy one-half the
metallic motley of the world, in order
to establish the slavery of greed and
usury more degrading than the tyran
ny of armed force.
It Is the ptern demand from unre
quited toll, bankrupt enterprise and
ruined homes, for a change In the
money system which for years hus
brought disaster and desolation.
In this crisis of our country nnd
party we must take no step backward
in platform or candidate. We want no
uncertain or doubtful lender. No lag
gard In eace, or dastard In war. No
latter-day silver saint, but a grizzled
a J scarred veteran, who has borne the
heat and burden of the day and whose
breast is marked from edge of sword
and point of lance on a hundred fields.
Twenty years ago the battle for sil
ver was begun in the halls of con
gress by a modest, unpretending brave
man, not an iriillscent nor meteoric
Ftatesman, but of the people nnd from
the people, who has never faltered for
an Instant In the grent struggle. Others
doubted and wavered, some yielded to
blandishment and patronage, and are
now holding otllee under the gold pow
er, others misrepresented their constit
uents nnd have been provided for In
the national infirmary of the present
administration, but Richard Parks
Itland stands now whore he stood then,
the living, breathing embodiment of the
Bilver cause.
He struck with steel point the golden
shield of the money monopolists, ns did
Ivanhoe that of the proud Templar In
the lists at Ashby, nnd has neither
nsked nor given quarter.
Nor Is he a narrow, one-ldened man.
For twenty years In congress he
fought In the front ranks for Democrat
ic principles and policies as taught by
Jefferson.
He stood by the side of Randall and
risked health and life to defeat the
first Force bill. He opposed ably and
earnestly that crowning tariff infamy,
the McKlnley act.nnd ugain was among
the foremost of the opponents of the
last Force bill, which passed the house
but was defeated in the senate.
He Introduced the first free colnnge
measure in congress, and was the au
thor of the Seigniorage bill which pass
ed both houses and was vetoed by
President Cleveland.
If this be an obscure record, where
can be found the enreer of any public
servant that deserves the plaudits Of
his countrymen?
The Democrats of Missouri, who have
passed through the fiery furnace of
Republican proscription seven times
heated, and whose state (lag has al
ways been placed beneath the great
orlllamme of national Democracy.make
no apology or excuse when offering
such a candidate for the presidency.
If you ask, Whence comes our candi
date? we answer, Not from the usurer's
don nor temple of mammon, where the
clink of gold drowns the voice of pa
triotism, but from the farm, the work
shop, the mine from the hearts and
homes of the people.
To reject him Is to put a brand upon
rugged honesty and unwonted courage
and to chill the hearts and hopes of
those who, during all these years, have
waited for this hour of trlumphi To
nominate him Is to make our party
again that of the people, and to insure
success.
Give us Silver Dick, and silver quick,
And we will make McKlnley sick,
In the Ides of next November.
The voice of the Missouri senator
never at any time very robust, was
quite lost In the vast dimensions of the
hall. His mention of Aland's name was
followed by only a very slight demon
stration of applause, not hulf so loud
as the clamor of the delegates fighting
their way Into the convention.
Mr. Comstock, of Rhode Island, com
plained to the chnlr that he had been
almost torn to pieces In forcing his way
In through the force of police. A simi
lar complaint was made by delegates
from New York and Instructions were
given to the scrgeant-at-arms to rem
edy the evil.
OFFICERS POWERLESS.
The chairman and the sergeant-at-arms
appeared to be utterly unable to
cope with the situation, and Mr. Vest
went on with his speech nominating Mr.
Bland. The only part of 4) Is speech
that stirred the crowd was the closing
rhyme:
"Olve us silver Dick,
And silver quick.
And we will make McKlnley sick."
This brought down the house and hats
and flags were waved and a great up
roar made, which lasted for some min
utes. The band came to the help of the
crowd, striking ud "The Rattle Cry of
Freedom." All the silver delegates rose
to their feet, cheered and Indulged In
all the usual manifestations, so that
what at first was but a faint wave of
applause grew Into a tumultuous storm,
Into the thick of which a Bland banner
was carried through the hall with the
motto: "Silver Dick, the people's
choice."
By this time there were three hand
some silver Bland banners unrolled and
carried about with a likeness of the
candidate and the mottoes: "Free sil
ver, free people," "One God, one coun
try, one Bland," "Bland silver's invin
cible, - Irrepressible, Irreproachable
champion."'
The nomination of Bland was sec
onded by David Overmeyer, of Kansas.
BRYAN NOMINATED.
When Georgia was called, Mr. H. T.
Lewis, of that state came to the plat
form and put In nomination W, J.
Byran, of Nebraska, saying that If pub
lic office was a reward for public ser
vice, no man merited such reward more
than he. In the late political contests
Mr. Bryan stood among his peers like
Saul among the Isralltes, head and
shoulders above all the rest. "Honor
htm with the nomination" he said, "and
you will do credit to the party and
earn for yourselves the plaudits of your
constituents and the thanks of poster
ity." A scene which was almost a duplica
tion of that which attended the nomina
tion of island, was enacted, when Mr.
Bryan's name was proposed to tho con
vention. The delegations from Georgia,
North Carolina, Louisiana, Michigan,
South Dakota and Mississippi, rallied
around the spear shaped gridirons
which bear the names of their states
and indicate their positions on the
floor.
Mr. Theodore Klutz, of North Caro
lina, seconded the nomination of Mr.
Bryun. lie spoke of him as that young
glunt of the West, that friend of the
people, that champion of the oppressed;
that apostle and prophet of this great
crusade for financial reform.
Mr. Bryan's nomination was also sec
onded by Mr. George Williams, of
Massachusetts. "We want," he said,
"a young man to wield the sword of an
Indignant people."
Mr. Thomas J. Keman, of Loulsana,
made the seconding speech in favor of
Mr. Bryan.
MATTHEWS NOMINATED.
Senator David Turple, of Indiana,
rose to nominate Governor Matthews,
of that state, but was so Indistinctly
heard that cries of louder were raised
and the chairman explained that the
senator's voice was weak and asked In
dulgence. While the senator was reading his
remarks there was a constant passing
of people to and fro, nlong the aisles.
A voice shouted "nominate Cleveland,"
and cheers for Cleveland, were called for
and given. The senator read on undis
mayed though his voice was Inaud
ible ten feet away from where he stood.
Finally, however, the dlsored became
so great that Mr. Turple appealed to
the chair and sufficient silence was se
cured to-enable him "to name Claude
Matthews and there was a slight de
monstration of applause which was
confined to the Indiana delegation.
MINNIE MURRAY'S DANCE.
A Boles demonstration was started by
the Iowa delegation, but mnde no pro
gress till two young women dressed In
white In the south gallery stood up and
wildly waving their arms began shriek
ing for Iowa's governor. The Boles
banner was carried to them and be
tween them they managed to wave It
a few tlme9 and then sank back in their
seats exhausted. After a brief rest
one of them rose again and was escorted
to the floor, everybody standing on
chnirs to see the sight and cheerlng.then
laughing ns the enthusiastic lady, es
corted by some male friend with his arm
around herwalst, danced all around the
hall. The name of the author of this
extraordinary demonstration was stated
to be Miss Minnie Murray, of Nashua,
Iowa. She informed a representative
of the United States Press that she was
only twenty-two years old. It was
fifteen minutes after eleven when this
scene collapsed and the fair Iowan and
her ecsort settled down.
The nomination of Mr. Boles was sec
onded by Mr. A. D, Smith, of Minne
sota, who characterized the candidate
as the "Grand old commander of the
Hawkeye state."
BLACKBURN NOMINATED.
Hon. John R. Rea, Kentucky, with a
voice almost as resonant and very
closely resembling that of the senator
he nominated, placed in nomination the
name of Senator Joseph Blackburn, of
Kentucky. He prefaced his remarks
with the pledges that whoever was
nominated Kentucky would give him
her vote. He spoke of his candidate as
"Joe" Blackburn, because to Kentuck
ians ho was "Joe" Blackburn, and that
meant everything. (Cheers.) It was
true he was from the South and he had
been a Confederate soldier, but his can
didacy was not a sectional one.
(Cheers.)
Wheil Ohio was called A. W. Patrick,
of Ohio, took the platform and placed
Mr. John R. McLean In nomination.
When Pennsylvania was called Paul
son was not formally named, but state
ment was made that cholse of state
would be expressed when ballot was
taken.
July 10. At 12.35 the convention ad
journed until 10 a. m. today.
M'KINLEY NOT AGITATED.
He Regards the Democratic Pow Wow
ut Chicago with (.'outplace ucy.
Canton, July 9. The proceedings of
the Chicago convention which came by
special wiro to Major McKinley's resi
dence seemed to be viefred with much
complacency by the Rcpubllcanc an
didate. He apparently found them
neither alarming or disquieting, save
for the thought of the disturbing effect
they mlirht have upon the business of
the country.
GROVER WATCHES THE LINE.
President Does Not Appear to Take
(rent Interest in the Convention.
Buzzard's Bay.July 9. The President
spent a very little time today reading
bulletins from Chicago, but enjoyed
this beautiful daye fishing.
His private secretary accompanied
him. The President does not express
himself either one way or the other on
the deliberations held thus far.
MR. BECK WILL NOT SPEAK.
The Collapse or the Pntt'son Hoom
Nccms Complete.
Chicago, July 9. Mr. Beck, of Penn
sylvania, has Just Informed a represen
tative of the United Press that he will
not deliver the speech he had prepared
to nominate Mr. Pattison.
Pennsylvania, he says, will simply
cast Its vote for Pattison. It would be
Imprudent, he said, in the circum
stances to make a speech in favor of
Mr. Pattison.

Opeued at Washington, D. C.
Washington, July 9. The business
session of the Fifteenth International
Christian Endeavor convention opened
here this morning. President Clark's
annual address and the report of Sec
crease the English societies surrended
the different tents. The presentation of
the prize banners of the greatest growth
In the state societies whtch followed
the addresses In each tent, was a scene
of great enthusiasm. The lucky dele
gations were loudly cheered by the com
peting delegations. For the greatest
proportionate Increase In number of so
cieties for the past twelve months, the
banner passed from Asslnlbola to Scot
land. For the greatest absolute In
crease In Junior sucletles goes from
the banner to Pennsylvania. The Ju

more people were turned back to the
city unable to gain admittance.

SHE KNEW IT ALL.
Was n Telephone Kxprrt, und Re
treated with All Honors of War.
From the New York Herald.
She looked like the embodiment of
spring as she tripped Into an uptown
drug store and asked for the telephone.
She very prettily said she wouldn't
trouble anyone to ring up her connec
tion for her she knew all about It.
"Give me No. 999 Ninety-sixth street,
please," she murmured. Then she
hung up the receiver and made an ex
amination of a sample of silk she had
been carrying In her purse.
The Inspection had been quite com
pleted and the unappreciated person
at No. 999 hadn't responded to the wire.
Then the rang again and, after a few
seconds, said:
"I want that number I asked for.
Oh, yes, I did. No. 999 Ninety-sixth
street."
Then she again carefully hung up the
receiver and tried to look unconcerned.
The clerks were beginning to look In
terested, and when she finally twisted
the crank again there was an Inaudi
ble titter from the clerks.
She said: "I haven't got my number
yet." She looked very much vexed as
she again hung the receiver on the
hook nnd began drumming on the table.
One of the clerks volunteered to get tho
number for her, but she had grown
frigid and declared that she needed no
assistance. When she rang the bell
again It was the signal for another
smothered laugh on the part of the
force of the store.
"No, I didn't get them yet,"5 she said,
and her voice sounded very sweet, In
deed. "Oh, there they are. Is this the
? Is Mr. there? Yes, if you
please." A pause. "Oh, how do you do,
Charley? I wanted to call you up be
fore you got away. Can't go tonight.
Yes, so am I, but I will explain when I
see you. Good-bye."
Then she tripped up to the counter,
laid down 15 cents and walked out.
And a clerk who went to the telephone
learned that the shrewd young woman
had been talking to herself only. She
must have got tired of waiting, and
taken that method of escaping a laugh.
A STOUY FltUM TEXAS.
How Sinurt a Hen Can Be in That
State.
From the Philadelphia Times.
J. C. Wheaton of Texas, ha9 some
very fine breeds of chickens which he
raises for market While most of his
poultry Is all of the darker breeds, he
recently Imported a fine pair of white
Brahmas, which in due course present
ed him with sixteen chicks. Last week
those little fellows were good flying size
and were ready prey for hawks, their
white feathers gleaming In the sun and
making them visible from afar. In
fact. In spite of Wheaton's efforts, the
hawks made away with six of tho
young P.rahmas.
One morning, however, after the re
maining ten had been duly accounted
for the night before, Wheaton was sur
prised, on going to the poultry yard, to
see not one single white chicken. The
Brahma cock and hen were there all
right enough, but instead of their own
snowy little ones ten bedraggled, cast
off looking black chicks peeped at their
heels. For a long time Wheaton could
not Imagine what was the matter, but,
by and by, concluded that the little
Brahmas had gotten In the soot box
by accident, and that they were still on
hand, though somewhat discolored.
That night, however, he discovered
that what he had attributed to error
had been done deliberately and with
wise Intent. Before the old Brahma
would let her little ones tuck In for the
night she made them dip and sputter
in the big chicken trough by the well.
This done she led the way to an old
stove pipe under the woodshed, and
made every last chick of them pass
through the pipe, wiping oft the soot
as he went. Of course, it stuck to their
wet feathers, and the little fellows
came out perfect black-a-moors. The
old hen circumvented the hawks, how
ever. Her little brood runs about as

PRESIDENTIAL YEAltS.
From Dow-Jones Co.'s Circular.
There Is a theory that presidential elec
tions have a disturbing effect upon busi
ness In the yearn In which such elec
tions are held. An examination of tho
records of Imports and exports, bank re
turns and pig Iron production does not
bear out this view. Loans by national
banks were larger In JS72 than In 1871; a
trifle smaller In 1876 than In 1875; much
larger In 18W than In 1879; rather less In
1884 than In 1S79; rather less In 1884 than In
1883; larger in 1802 than 1891. Pig Iron con
sumption docreased compared with the
preceding years In 1876, 1884, 188S and 1892,
but the production was larger In most
presidential years than In years preced
ing. Exports and Imports equalled or ex
ceeded those of the contrasting years In
four out of sux presidential petiods.
