CEORCUNS ARE
FOR MR. BRYAN.
The Democratic Convention Prac
tically Solid for Him.
400 DELEGATES HARMONIOUS.
Chicago Platform Indorsed—Ticket
Named With noContest. Dele
gates Were Instructed.
Atlanta, June 14. —Georgia’s
delegation to the Kansas City con
vention, which was chosen in the
state democratic convention today
was instructed to cast its vote for
HOll. W. J. Bryan as the presiden
tial nominee of tlie democratic
party.
There was considerable enthus
iasm at the mention of the Ne
braskan’s name and the democratic
party in Georgia showed itself to
be a unit for his selection.
The convention with 400 mem
bers present was a harmonious one.
It was called to order by Chairman
Fleming dußignon, of the state
democratic executive committee, at
10 o’clock, and only a few hours j
was required to nominate a state 1
ticket, select four delegates-at- i
large to the natinal convention,
adopt a platform and adjourn.
The following are the delegates
from the state-at-large to the Kan
sas City convention: Boykin
Wright, of Augusta; J.J. Spalding,
of Atlanta; Wylie B. Burnett, of
Athens, and Lewis F. Garrard, of
Columbus.
The galleries of the hall of rep
resentatives were filled with spec
tators when the convention met.!
After being called to order by j
Chairman dußignon Hon. E. T. j
Brown, uf Atlanta, was elected tem
porary chairman.
He addressed the convention
briefly. Permanent organization
was then effected with Mr. dußig
non as permanent chairman. In
addressing the convention he con
gratulated the party on its unity
as a state organization and said its
power was greater this year than
ever before.
Committees on credentials and
platform and resolutions were
named. There being no contests
from any county on the seating of
delegations the credentials commit
tee had no business before it. The
resolutions committee retired to
formulate the platform.
THE TICKET.
During its absence the following
state ticket was nominated:
For Governor —Allen D. Cand
ler.
For Secretary of State —Phil
Cook.
For Attorney-General—Jos. M.
Terrell.
For Comptroller-General—Win.

For Commissioner of Agricul

been sent to the convention in
stiucted by the state primary held
in May.
The election of the foregoing
ticket will take place in October,
The convention also named August
Dupont and Fulton Colville pres
idential electors from the state-at
large.
THE PLATFORM
which the convention adopted in
dorsed the Chicago platform of
1896 and declared against the na
tional policies of the republican
party. It indorses the present state
administration and congratulates
the people of the state on the
school system of Georgia. An
amendment to the federal constitu
tion for the election of United
States senators by the people was
demanded. The construction of
the Nicaraguan canal was advo
cated. The gold standard was de
nounced. The repeal of the war
revenue tax act was demanded.
Trusts were condemned and de
nounced as unlawful combinations
and legislation was demanded look
i ing to the prevention of such a
; utilization of capital. Tariff for
revenue only was advocated and
the repeal of the present tariff act
1 was demanded. The platform holds
that since it is not practical to ap
ply the constitution of the United
States to the people of another na
tion the imperialistic policy of the
republican party is contrary to the
theory of our government. The
party declares its opposition to a
large standing army. Republican
policy regarding the Porto Rican
tariff act was condemned. The
platform favors expansion by all
reasonable and practicable means,
but denies that the present policy
regarding the acquisition of for
eign territory is subservient to this
end. The platform goes on to say
that foreign trade expansion is bet
ter promoted by the arts of peace
and friendly relations than by war.
The acts of bravery and gallantry
of the soldiers and sailors of the
United States are commended. The
repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on
state banks of issue is demanded.
After a ringing indorsement of W.
J. Bryan and the instruction of
delegates to the national conven
tion, the platform concludes by ex
tending to all voters, irrespective
of past party affiliations, an invi
tation to join the democratic party.
Vice-Chairman Brown read a let
ter from National Chairman Jones
in which the latter urged the state
not to select any Members to the
electoral college concerning whom
there mav be the least doubt as to
their eligibility, in order to pre
vent any contusion when the elec
toral college meets.

FIGHT OVER THE PLATFORM.
The fight in the platform com
mittee over the question of placing
a local option plank in the plat
form was hotly contested to a fin
ish. It looked fora while as though
the friends of the measure would
carry their point, but Judge Bart
lett called Judge Hamilton Mc-
Whorter to the chair, took the
floor and made a vigorous speech
against taking any action on the
question at this time, stating his
reasons so clearly and cogently
that he carried a majority of the
committee with him. The vote
on Mr. Howard’s resolution stood
9 to 13.
Richest Man in Town-
Lincoln, Neb. June 14. —Accord-
ing to the books just turned in by
the city assessors the past year has
been a prosperous one for Mr.
Bryan, and he is now, in the mat
ter of personal property, easily the
richest man in Lincoln.
Last year Mr. Bryan’s report
showed $2,500 in the bank and
other personality, bringing up the
total to $2,980. This year the to
tal is 4,560, which includes $3,900
in the bank and to other credits.
In Nebraska a printed schedule
is sent to each man and he is asked
to fill it out and swear to the truth

ernor Moore, who has heretofore
paid the largest amount of personal
taxes in the city, ranks second,

CLEVERLY DISGUISE THE FACT-
Senator Chandler Does Some Talk
ing That Is Not Pleasing to Re
publican Brethren.
Washington, June 15, 1900.
The republican pretense that
there is uncertainty about who
will fill the second place on the
McKinley ticket is amusing. Boss
Hanna and Mr. McKinley have
long ago selected the man, but the
secret has been well kept, as they
wish the delegates to the conven
tion to be deluded into the belief
that the nomination is theirs. The
platform that will be adopted by
the Philadelphia convention has
also been written, although the
convention will go through the
farce of appointing a platform com
mittee to prepare it. The platform
WuS written by Postmaster General
Smith, who was chosen for the
task because he was a newspaper
man, but its authors are Boss
Hanna and Mr. McKinley. They
dictated it in the rough to Mr.
Smith, who polished it up. In fact,
the work of the Philadelphia con
vention could easily be done well
inside of three hours, but Hanna
promised in return for that SIOO,-
000 contribution that the conven
tion should sit three days, and the
programme has been arranged on
a three-day basis, not only to give
the Philadelphia a chance to even
up but to try to work up a little
enthusiasm among the delegates.
Senator Chandler,who has a way
of nagging his party and its lead
ers, when the spirit moves him,
has been throwing cold water on
the Hanna McKinley crowd by
pointing out in a published inter
view the danger of republican de
feat this year. Following are some
of Mr. Chandler’s reasons: “We
will be hurt the most by the charges
of extravagance and corruption.
The next danger point's the charge
that the party is bound in chains
by the money power and that its
reins are held by millionaires, and
the third thing to fear is great
losses in the Philippines.” He
pointed out exactly where defeat
might meet the republicans when
he said: “Suppose the war news
next fall is not good, or that there
are labor troubles, or that prosper
ity is threatened. What then?
Illinois, Indiana and even New
York would slip away from us.
It is barely possible that we may
lose those states even without any
succession of untoward events. In
that event, we would lose the elec
tion.” Mr. Chandler is being
roundly abused by the party bosses
for publicly saying what they have
been saying among themselves for
weeks.
The court of claims has taken
the Sampson side of the battle of
Santiago with a vengeance. It de
cided that Sampson commanded
the fleet during the battle and that
the New York was engaged there
in. Under that decision Sampson,
who had no more to do with des
troying the Spanish fleet than the
reader of this, will get $8,335 as
his share of prize money, while
Schley, the man who commanded
the fleet which destroyed the Span
ish ships, gets only about S3OOO.
A sensational statement was
made before the industrial com
mission, now hearing testimony on
matters relating to labor, by Mr.
M. F. Thompson, secretary of the
southern industrial convention of
Huntsville, Ala., and a bitter op
ponent of labor unions, who said:
“Labor organizations are today the
greatest menace to this govern
ment that exists inside or outside
the pale of our national domain.
Their influence for disruption and
disorganization of society is far
more dangerous to the perpetua
tion of our government in its purity
and power than would be the hos
tile array on our borders of the
armies of the entire world com
j billed. “That is probably the most
I extreme opinion of its kind ever
publicly uttered in this country.
It was listened to by some of the
labor leaders, who intend tp an
swer it in their testimony before
the commission.
Col. George C. Gorham, a life
long republican and for years sec
! retary of the senate, expresses the
opinion that Mr. McKinlev would
bi defeated if every democrat in
; the United States refrained from
voting next November. Speaking
of the political outlook, he said:
“My correspondence is extensive,
representative and frequent with
all sections of the country, and I

pounds, now I weigh 140. My husband
and friends all thought that I would die,
but to-day I am a well woman. ”
Mrs. Barham’s experience is not singu
lar. Thousands have given similarly
strong and convincing testimony. There
are no other medicines in the world that
have such a long and continuous record
of cures.
There are no other medicines “just as
good’’ or “just the same” as Doctor
Pierce’s. Like all valuable things these
medicines are sometimes imitated. Don’t
be imposed upon. See that you get what
you ask for.
If you have any doubt as to the nature
of your ailment write fully, giving your

will tell you, absolutely free of charge,
what to do to get well.
Mr. McKinley, would not carry
half a dozen states. Let's see.
Yes, he would carry Rhode Island,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire
and Vermont. I feel certain he
would get those states. Maine,
though, would be doubtful. Now,
if anybody can tell me what other
states Mr. McKinley is sure to car
ry I will be very much obliged. I
have given the complete list of
safe republican states at this mo
ment. and I don’t know but that
some of these I have placed in the
' f ~Kinlev column will turn up
missing in November. I have been
w ching national campaigns for a
gcx and many years and if the demc*-
crtts can’t sweep the country this
vet r they would better go out of
business and turn the job of fight
ing the republicans over to some
lody else.”
The republicans are so much
alarmed over the outlook for the
congressional elections that they
will maintain campaign commit
tee headquarters in both Washing
ton and Chicago. Duplicating
headquarters will do them no good,
as they cannot destroy the record
made by the republican adminis
tration.
