The Populist-Democratic Muddle.
The result of the distinct Pcpulist con
vention which adjourned on Saturday even
ing in St Louis in the same disoider
whioh characterized it for four days ap
pears to be more of a muddle the closer it
is contemplated. And this is without re
ference to the disgruntled feelings 01
about one-third of the delegates oyer the
nonrnation of Bryan.
It is not apparent how the Popilista are
going to materially help the Populist can
didate for President, Mr. W, J. Bryan
without sacrificing their candidate for
Vioe-Preiidert, Mr. Tom Watson, of
Georgia. Or how are they going to push
along their candidate for Vice-Pre«ident
and at the same time give any practical
support to their nominee for President.
These Populists by making such nomina
tion as they did for seoond place on their
ticket decl' -ed their purpose to maintain
their separate party organization Indepen
dent of the othe; Populist convention ro
cently met it Chicago. They can do this
inder existing conditions only by running
separate electors in support cf their nomi
nees. If they do so the regular Popu' ist
vote and the Populist- Democratic vote
will Le cast lor different electors. There
wi.H be Bryan and "Watson electors and
Bryan and Sew; 11 electors, which would
not carry out the scheme intended by
Chairman Jones, of the Bryan National
Committee, in seeking the nomination of
Bryan at St. Loais, which was to unite all
the Populist vote on the Populist-Demo
orati3 candidate nominated at Chicago.
Fusion can be accomplished only by
the Baorifice of either Watson or Sewall
and fusion Is going to do a great deal to
destroy the regular Popn'ist party. If
the Bryan Democrat concede tho Bryan
Populist a division of electors in the dif
ferent States, those electors, if otoaen,
wonld of course vote for Bryan but they
would not vote for Sewall How are
those alleged Democrats who are support
ing the Chicago nominees going to re
gard such a betrayal of the Democrat ic
end of their tioket for the benefit of the
Populist end of ut Mr. Sewall was re
jected by the Populist mob at St. Loais
because he ij a Democrat, while Mr.
Bryan was nominate d because he is and
has been a Populist. On the other hand
the regular Populists by voting for a fusion
ticket would be supporting some electors
who wouid not vote for their candidate
for Vic President, and they wonld be
selling out their oandidate for second place
to help along their candidate for Pres
ident. If all the Populist and Bryan
Democratic votes cannot be got together
on one set of eleotors in the States where
ttey would promise t<? ooas'itute a ma
jority tho St. Lonis fuss must go for noth
ing.
It is no surprise that Mr. Bryan is com
pelled to announce that be doesn't know
whether he will accept or not. We don't
thirk he will formally; but we do not thibk
he will decline. He is at home with tho
crov-d wh'ch composed the St Louis con
vention and he is'as anrious to have its
support as it is willing to give it to him.
It may be expected that effoits will bo
made to get either Sewall or Watson out
of the v. ay. It will not be a very easy job
to get the latter disposed of. He has al
ready sUted his purpose to accept the
nomination, and if Watson dian't accept
there is veiy small prospect that so much
of a Demoorat as Sewall would finally be
substituted. About the only way out,
therefore, is the retirement of Sewall, and
Bryan will probably aid to do that by re
fusing to reluße the regular Populist nom
ination, regardless of the fact that he has
said he oould not accept unless Sewall
were also nominated.
Self-respecting Democrats must contem
plate the situation with some distress.
Thousands of them have already repudiat
ed the ticket end plattorm of the Chicago
convention; the nomination of Bryou and
WaUon at St Louis, combined with (be re
jection of Sewall, will prompt many more
thousands to do so.—Phila Press.
THE situation in Cuba is practically
unchauged. Smallpox and yellow fever
arc decimating he ranks of the Spanish
army, and General Gomez is attempting
to prevent the movement of Spanish
troops t>y blowing up the railroad trains
upon which they travel with dynamite.
The Spanish soldiers have l>een in the
habit of shooting insurgents, women and
children from the car windows, and

travel more dangerous to the troops than

Q.—Mexico has been a silver standard
coi ntry for four centuries. What is its
present monetary condition? A. It is
on a silver specie basis. Ten banks issue
notes-$25, 4 27.<-*> in The SpJCIC
silver,) reserve to pay them is 30,500,
c». There is $15,000 in silver dol
lars in circulation, and the country has
about $55, c 3,000 of money in use, count
ing in gold and subsidiary silver. The
population is 12, if ;,ooo —$4.50 per capita.
There are no Government notes.
Q.—What has become of the f.3,32'.-
oc 3,0 c i coined by its eleven mints? A
It has been exported as fast as it was
coined, as bullion, to for imports, at
its commercial price as bullion.
Q.— What is a Mexican dollar equal to
in our silver coinage? A. fi.094. It
contains 406.39 grains of fine silver; ours
37 Q 2 £V r hat is it worth in Mexico in gold?
A. Exactly 58 cents when silver is worth
68 cents per ounce, as bullion; and 63
cents for a legal tender—five cents lying
the cost of coinage. It fluctuates from
day to dav as bar silver fluctates 111
j London.
1 O —Then a Mexican silver dollar is
wo*"tli no more iu Mexico than it is anv
vhare else in the world—its market price
PS bullion. A.—Yes, five cents—the cost
of coinage. It has no other fiat value 111
Mexico. . , ,
Q.— Then its practical "free ana un
limited coinage" adds nothing to its ya
lue? A.—Only- the legal tender fiat value
in Mexico of five cents oyer the bu'lion
value. If fiee coined this would disan
appear, and it would only be worth in
Mexico its weight in silver
Q.— What is the cost o' living In the
City «f Mexico? A —About one-foyrlli
more than in New York city -in Mexican
money. Hotel rates are are (5 P«r ,u > -
Cr.bs cost fl 50 per hour. Street car
.'arcs are (>% cents. P ents are higher
than in New York city; board is dearer;
restaurant meals cost more.
Q.— What Is the cost of food? A.—
•'our, 5# cents; sugar, 19 cents; beef,
6'A cents; pork, 8# cents; coffee, 24
cents; tea (cheapest) $1; cheese, 25 cents.
All staples imported cost gold prices 111
addition to duties. _
Q. How much of this Mexican silver
money can a man earn? A. —The street
car companies pay conductors, drivers
aud collectors from 50 cents to fr per
day. The highest wages paid black
smiths is %i 50; bookbinders, $1; carpen
ters, $1 50; engine-drivers, $i so;harnes>
makers, hatters, locksmiths, silversmiths,
plumber* end turners, fi; machinists,
>,l 75; bricklayers, stonecutters, honse
painters, »i 25. Many work for half
these rates. . .
Q.—Then the cost of living is much
higher and wages of craftsmen much
lower than with us? A. —Decidedly. A
craftsman in Mexico receives practically
one-half American wages, aud his living
in the same way as here costs much more.
q —How is it with laborers? A.—
They get to 50 cents per day
in this Mexican silver money.
Q. —And how do they live? A.—"At
less expense than a farm horse in New
England," and not so well, John Bigelow
once remarked. "The laboring classes,
says a Mexican newspaper, "regard them
selves as a plant, which moves by ex
traneous aids only, and has no powey of
volition, and no desire to exercise it if it
had."

The letters received at the Department
of Agiiculture from Secretary Edge, who
is now in Alrska to recuperate his im
paired health, give the gratifying infor
mation that both Mr. and Mrs. Edge
have been much benefited by the"' ex
tensive tour. It is probable that they
will remain in Alaska for another pe.lod
of ten days, after which they will retrace
their journey homewards, traveling by
easy stages, and by way of the Great
Lakes of the Noithwest. The r long
jaunt has demonstrated to them most
fully the vagai les of American tempera

State Factory Inspector Campbe' 1 is
preparing a bill for the next legislature
which he thinks will mateilally assist
the enforcement of the compulsory edu
cational law. At present there promises
to be some little trouble in getting the
new educational law into practical work
ing order this fall, but this is only
natural with a new measure, and Mr.
Campbell proposes to have such amend
ments made to both school and factory
laws next winter as shall make the laws
hereafter of mutual bereft*. He proposes
to have children applying for work here
after not only present cei tificites from
their parents, stating that they are of
the full age required by Pennsy.vania
laws, but also to have them present cer
tificates from their teachers showing that
they have attended school for at least the
minimugi time required by law. Mr.
Campbell has jv«t returned from a brief
visit to McKinley.
A PENNSYLVANIA Democrat who ad
vocates free silver coinage is in a strange
position. He must repudiate the State
platform of his pai iy which declares em
phatically for sound mouey. Under such
circumstances the best compromise he
can make is to vote the Republican ticket.
The Pops.
Thursday, the delegates killed time
talk'ng, but towards evening the Bryan
men scored a decisive victoiy over the
"Middle of the Road" men by electing
Senator Allen of Nebraska, for perma
nent chairman, o\er Campion of Maine
vote 758 to 541.
Friday evening the convention nomi
nated Thomas E. Wa' >n of Georgia, for
Vice President; and 011 Saturday TV in. J.
Bryan for President. Bryan sent word to
wlthdiaw his name if Sewell were not
nominated for Vice President, but the
convention went ahead and nominated
him by a vote of 1,042 to 321. The Texas
delegation and others met after the con
vention adjourned and a resolution was
oFered by Judge Wood of Texas, as fol
lows:
"In case William J. Bryan does not ac
cept the nomination 011 the platform with
Tom Watson Inside of thi. .y days, the j
Hon. S. T. Norton be declared the nomi
nee of the People's party of the United
States."
A committee was appointed consisting
of a delegate from each state present for
the purpose of drawing up a statement
showing the public the position taken by
the "middle of the roaders." Eighteen
states responded and named a member of
this committee. "Stump" Asliby of Tex
as, presided and Sheridan Webster of
Missouri, was secretary of the meeting.
Without adopting the re: ilution an ad
journment was taken until 7 that even
ing.
"Cyclone" Davis, who was seen by a
representative of the United Press whib
the meeting was in progre. s, and asked
as to whether Texas would support Bryan
and Wat 011 if they would stand on the
Populist platform, most emphatically de
clared that they would get the suppo. 1 of
not only the state of Texas, but ot all the
southern Populists, especially if Bryan
would accept Mr. Watson as a running
mate.
The National Silver Party in conven
tion in St Louis, last week, nominated

Death of Col. Sullivan.
Sunday 'ast about u o cio"'c leat>
came -o Co'. John M. S'lllivan of '.Lis

usual and attended the meeting o* h.s
Bible Class '"n the Presbyterian Chi'-ch.
This Bible Class he has been the teacher
of for some years past. After the ex«" -
cises of the class were over he returned
to his home and sat dowu ou lis pore. ~
the place where our citizens have so often
seen him. No one saw his final struggle
with death except a young man who hap
pened to pass in front of his residence at
at the time. He heard a noise on the
porch and looking up saw Col. Sullivan
rise, and, with extended arms, fall upon
the porch.
He had his bible iu his hand aud aho

I u»»n a bright Sunday morning, with a

B< ,of tlic work lie dehghted so much to
be engaged iu, prsseu away the life of
John McPhorrin Sullivan, one of our old
est and most h'glily respected C'tiz*-us.
.lis r< mains were t?'ceu charge of by the
.nemb *rs of his bible class and on Tues
day last were fol'owed to their resting
place from his old home.
Col. Sullivan wa : born in Butler, Aug.
o, 1822. He would therefore have been
. 4 years of age or. tfc- 9'.h of next month.
His ep**ly cduce'vioi wr.s in the the o! 1
stone Academy w' : ch stood on Jef
erson street, where the large pub'lc
school bu'l i.ig now stn-'ds. From the**
"ie went to j'.Terson Coi'ege, Cannons
burg, Washington county, "a., and grad
uated from th«* sine in 1543, a finished
scl olir, and with t'tc highest honors cf
his c 1". s.
On his retu-n hocie he studied law and
was admitted to the Bar here in Decem
ber, 1845.
But tbe lav had no charms .'or h'in.
I-lis tr.stis ran in the line of le. ers and lit
erature, especially of politx.il .litera. ire,
and consequently w; soon find him at
P—T.sbrrg as the legislative corresjwn
acJi 01 some of the then leading Whig
jo pals of that day. Soon after he bt
.a-ie arsistant clerk of the State Senate;
then chief clerk of the same, then
Deputy Secretrry of the Commonwealth
timing the te.m of Governor Pollock,
(Andrew G. Ci ; ; u,afterwards Goverror,
jeing the chief Secretary;) then he be
rime connected with the S'"te School
department, for a tims, which he .esign
ed to accept the secretaryship of the Re
public n State Cent.al Committee in the
memorable campaign of 1860, resuming
ii the election of Abraham Lincoln as
of the United States. In theae
. ate positions he served for a period in
; 1 of about fifteen rears.
After the lec'Yri of Lincoln he ac
cepted a pos ; tion in the War Department
at Washington, where he remained dur
ing the late war, rendering valuable ser
vice to the Government and her soldiers
f u lug the time of her and their trials.
~-1 1867 he was appointed collector of In
terna 1 Revenue for this, the 23d Pa. dis
t;ict, with offce at Allegheny city, which
office he held for nearly 15 years,perform
ing the arduous duties of the same with
the greatest "delity. Millions of money
passed through his hands, but in this as
•n all the other posts of trust or of profU
he held, not a single error was ever found
or a single complaint ever made.
But it is of the p Ivate life and charar
ter of John M. S-'livan that we should
speak. Of him as a man. From earlv
H<iyhood days we were nlaymates and as
sociates. This friendship lasted throug!
life" Now that he is gone we feel tiia
Ihe viy las' of those with whom we
could meet and talk over the incidents
of early boyhood days has been sudden
ly cut off from us. In this res'iect Mr.
Sullivan was peculiarly interest'ng. His
memo: / of early e\ :nts of persons living
here in boyhood t :- nes, and of their
habits and character, was wonderful; and
he could narrate or to the same in
the most pleasant and cr.tei Laining n.an
ner. He was pure '*l life and thought
and in all our long acquaintance anil 111-
tercou r se with him we never knew hnn
to utter a profane word or an impure ex
pression. He was always bi.ght and
cheerful, a courteous gentleman, always
kind and obliging. Whatever he under
took or became interested in lie entered
upon it v. ith the greatest enthusiasm and
this enthusiasm and energy he had th<
li-.ppy faculty of imparting to ctlier;
It h" been said that the UOOD men do is
oft interred w.tli bones, but in the
life of John M. Sullivan we believe the
gcod acts he did to his fellows, and his
character, will live green in the memory
of all who knew or have heard of him,
while memo;/ lasts.
But he is gone. His bright eye is now
dull. His laughing voice will be heard
no more. The pleasant society of his
company will be 110 longer enjoyed.
His manly form is laid away. He is dead.
"Farewell,
A word which must be and hath been,
A sound which makes us linger, yet,
Farewell."

says that if the United States were to un

lo This Ketpect —SuipaiAlon of Gold
Payment on Government N<»t«s Would
Affect t'T» ry I'«rsou That Possessed a
Dollar.
•
Q. Whar» are the latest official figures
ol the world's(rold production? A. Iu the
mint director B estimate forlSWi, published
last week
Q. What does this estimate show the
world's present annual gold production to
bef A. »20,000,000. or $17,000,000 more
tfcAS In 1905
Q Compare thU total with previous
yerlodr A The world's average annual
production of gold, between 1870atid l»s0,
was $115,081,500; of silver, $01,857,500;
total, $206,980,000, or les« by $13,000,000 than
thil year's estimated production of gold
alone. As lately as 1884, the world's com
bined production of gold and silver was
leea by $13,000,000 than its present produc
tion of (old alona.
Q. Doe* this $220,000,000 of new gold
ceme freely into circulation? A. It does.
Q How can prove that fact? A. By
the annual coinage statements of the load
lag gold producing and gold importing
nations, all of which ghow a steady in
erea*« By the amount of gold in the
world's great depository banks, which has
laaraased with equal rapidity. These are
perfectly trustworthy signs.
Q. Is it not true that most of the new
•apply Is "cornered" by the Rothschilds?
A- Thero Is not the slightest reason for
supposing such a thing.
Q But if the world's gold supply has
bean increasing so rapidly, and is not
"oornerod," why has it grown harder every
year for our government to maintain its
ewn gold reserve? A Because of tho free
ailver coinage movement in this country.
Q. How can that movement affect our
gold reserve? A. First, by forcing so mush
new silver aud paper money Into circula
tion that nobody pays gold any longer to
tke government. Second, by the threat
that the free coinage purtv will redeem tho
government notes and bonds in silver only,
which eauses holders of the notes to present
them now for gold.
Q. Why should such holders present
their government notes for redemption
now? A. For the same reason that made
people, in the old state bank days, rush in
for redemption the notes of a bank which
was likely to stop payment.
Q. Are there not other nations than our
own whose currency requires a large gold
reserve? A. There are.
Q. What nations, for instance!' A. Ger
many. France, Enplane!
Q. Do not these countries have the suuio
trouble with their gold reserve as our
treasury doesf A. Not in the least. This
gold reserve in each of these three coun
tries is larger than necessary, and is con
stantly increasing.
Q. Why Is their situation »v different
from ours? A. Because there has been no
doubt of the money standard in Germany,
France or England.
Q. But has not the United States always
had especial trouble in getting gold for its
currency? A. It has not.
Q. When did it get gold easily!' A. Be
tween 1884, when tho gold standard was
adopted, and lb6l, when paper money was
substituted and the gold standard aban
doned.
Q. Did gold flow in ruadily at any other
period? A. It did.
Q. When? A. After the resumption of
specie payments by the United States ia
1870, which was accepted by the world as
onr re-adoption of tho gold standard.
Q. What followed that resumption of
Bpeclu payments? A. Within two years,
$174,000, 000 gold was sent to usfroin Kuropa.
i-J But surely this gold did not go into
the treasury? A. More of it than the
treasury needed went in.
y. How do you know that? A. As
early as Sept. 19, IS7U, the secretary of tho
treasury announced that "gold coin,.be
yond the needs of the government, had
accumulated in tho treasury," and au
thorize*! the uso of gold ll regular treas
ury expenditures.
Q Wore those two years a period of
prosperity? A. For this country, a period
of unparalleled prosperity.
Q. How long did this prosperity lust?
A. Until the silver coinage movement) was
again threatening our maintenauce of tha
gold standard.
y. What happened then? A. Gold pay
ments into tho treasury almost ceased,
and gold withdrawals through redeinp
of government notes grew larger.
Q Suppose all tho gold in the treasury
reserve wore to he used up, what would
happen? A. Tho government could not
pay gold coin to the holders of its notes.
Q, What difference would that mako to
a holder of 'a govornment note —say of a
dollar bill—who did not caro to uso gold?
A. His dollar liill would depreciate along
with all other government notes. Since it
no longer could exchange for a dollar in
gold, it would no longer buy what a dollar
in gold would buy.
Q. How would such depreciation show
itself? A. By an artificial and general rise
in prices, without a rise in wages and
salaries.
Q. Has this aver actually happened? A.
During our civil war, when the gold
Standard was abandoned, the government
paper money depreciated to 50 per cent, of
its gold value, the gold premium msa
above 100, and there was a frightful ad
vance In prices.
CJ. Then would suspension of gold pay
ment on government notes injure all holdj
erw of such notes? A Sooner or later, it
would choat every man with a dollar bill
