THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY MORNING-,- AUGUST Ml. 1896.
THE POPULISTS ARE
IN DEAD EARNEST
rbey Will Live Up to the Fusion Under
Proper Conditions.
BUT WATSON MUST BE RECOGNIZED
The Democrat Must Work for the
Southern Oratorical Cyclone or the
, Hoy Orator Will Be Knifed by the
M hiskcrs Coiitingcr.tMr. Sutler's
Opinion of C'ockran.
Washington, Au.fr. 20. "There ap
pears to bo an Intimation of some of
the newspapers that the decision of our
committee with respect to fusion is not
sincere and that we Uo not intend to
live up to It," said Chairman Marlon
Butler of the Populist committee today.
"The statement of last niRlit was made
after a careful consideration of the
whole subject und we mean exactly
what It says. The national executive
committee will not approve any fusion
In any of the states that gives the
Populists simply the state ticket and
the Democrats the whole electoral tick
et. There must be Just as zealous work
done for the candidacy of Mr Watson
as there is for Mr. Bryan and the ef
forts put forth In behalf of Mr. Bryan
muut be as loyal as those exerted for
Mr. Watson. There Is no reuson what
ever why we cannot work In harmony
with the Democratic party In this re
spect for we both have the same head
to our ticket, and are both earnest in
our efforts to secure the free and un
limited coinage of silver. Of course
In those states where the two parties
are pretty evenly divided and where
we can defeat the Republicans and
carry the electoral vote for Bryan only
by merging our Interests, common
sense suggests that we agree upon a
division of the electors. But even In
that case there will be no trading of
votes by the Populists. The statement
lias no unhidden meaning. It is quite
plain."
Senator Butler discussed the speech
of Mr. Bnurke Cockran at some length
this morning and was quite caustic in
some of his comment.1?. "That speech,"
said he, "will be a boomerang. Cock
ran and the gold Democrats are the
allies of the Republicans and Mr. Hanna
in this light. Mr. Hanna Is trying to
switch the financial question and makes
the tariff the Issue. His efforts are as
desperate and fanatical as those of
Cockran nnd the gold Democrats. The
Intelligence of the masses Is so great
that both are doomed to fall. Cockran's
speech is a good background for that
of Mr. Bryan. It has only helped to
emphasize Mr. Bryan's truths In the
minds of the people."
How does Bryan's New York speech
compare with that made by him before
the Chicago convention?" Mr. Butler
was asked.
"The Chicago speech was a master
piece of soul-stirring oratory. Prob
ably no man living could have done
better for that occasion. Tne New York
speech was a masterpiece of convincing
and unanswerable logic. It is almost
impossible to conceive of a speech more
effective and appropriate for that occa
sion." DEATH OF FLORA F1NLAYS0N.

sonally to give anything.

THE SNAKE AT SCHOOL.
A few mornings since a vicinity school
teacher had a lively experience. Soon
after the school was called to order

and upon opening the drawer to the
desk she was horrified to see a large
rattlesnake slowly uncoil and crawl out
upon the top of the de.sk. The young
er children screamed and ran out of
doors, and Fcveral of the older boys
hurriedly looked about for clubs with
which to dispatch the Intruder. The
plucky little teacher at once grasped
the fire poker, and, with a well-directed
blow, killed the reptile. Then she
swooned. The school was dismissed for
the day. How the snake ftucci-eded
In getting into the desk Is still an
unanswered conundrum.

RETURNS AFTER MANY YEARS.
William Chamber, Who Went to
California in 18 1!, Comes Hack.
English Lake, Ind., Aug. 20. A case
almost surpassing credulity has devel
oped here by the return of William
Chambers after an absence of forty
seven years. In the spring of W49
Chambers, then a young man, left his
wife, a bride of fifteen months, and one
child, a babe in the cradle, to seek his
fortune on the Pacific coast. He took
up a claim and letters to his wife told
of the wealth he was accumulating. He
was gone a year when the letters stop
ped. The wife still dung to the hope
that he would return, but months
lapsed Into years and still Chambers
was nbsent.
Flft jen years from the time Cham
bers leit Jti'ltuna Mrs. Chiirib-!rs was
ar j'.a married and live th.ldrm were
h ii:. ni of whom ur.' l'vlui:. Jl'.r sec
o.id lupbar.U'H name wa. W.i'.ki? and he
lived until 1S91. Yesterday Chambers,
aged S9, his figure bowed with the
weight of years, returned home. He
did not expect to find his wife, but It
was to learn her fate and to locate the
whereabouts of the child, who had
grown to manhood, that he left Cali
fornia, where his fortunje had been
made.
Chambers rays that the success on
which he had first calculated did not
materialize. He became fllscouiaged,
nnd fearful that the news of his failure
would be a crushing blow to his wife
he ceased to write her. When the time
came that a fortune was within his
grasp word came that she had died of
a broken heart. He gave up his life to
the pursuit of wealth, hoping that his
fortune would become the Inheritance
of his only son, of whose whereabouts
he was also ignorant. The long-separated
couple will again live together.
