Hon. Thomas E. atsoo lias landed with both feet upon the back of Chairman Marion Butler, of North Carolina. There is a thuddy quiver in the jump which Mr. Watson lias made upon the national committee which comes with telling force. He raises an emphatic proles says the Constitution, against the intention of Chairman Butler not to notify him nor to let Mr. Bry an know of what was done at St. Louis. Mr. Wats in states that it is humiliating both to the party and tohimse f to let the campaign go on in this unheard-of manner. Following is a ringing editorial which will appear today wuh Mr. Watson’s signature attached in The People’s I’arty Paper : "The Washington Post quotes Senator Marion Butler, our na tional chairman, as saying that Messrs. Bryan and Watson will not be notified of their nomina tions; that it has never been the custom of our party to notifiy its nominees, snd that Generals Wea ver and Field were not notified in 1892. “This is the second time that Chairman Butler has been quoted to the same effect, and we, there ’foie, presume he has spoken as re p >rted. “If Senator Butler "ill hunt up any populist paper containing an account of the national conven tion of 1892 (the first our p«rty e er had) he will find the speeches of acceptance made by General James B. Weaver, nominee for president, and General James G. Field, nom'nee for vice president. “They were both notified of their nominations and made speeches of acceptance to the con vention itself. “In The National Watchman of July 16, 1592, Senator Butler will find these speeches. “If nominees are not notified in person or by letter and do not re spond by speech or letter, how is the party to know whether the nominees accept the nomination and indorse the platform? ‘lf the national convention at Louis did not mean that Messrs. Bryan and Watson should be notified, why was a committee appointed to notify them? “M hy does Senator Allen, chair of that committee, refuse to do what the convention instructed him to do? “Is he afraid Mr. Bryan will re Pudiate our support? “If so, our party’ has a right to kllr ->w that fact. -Mr. Bryan is ashamed of the •My little boy 2 years of age, was taken very ill with bloody flux.

He can not carry his own state without our help, and if he is ashamed of our help, he is not the man our peop'e have taken him to be. ‘‘Let us have no dodging. Let the committee do its duty and notify Mr. Bryan. ‘‘lt is humiliating both 'o the party and to its other nominee. Mr. Watson, to let the campaign goon in this un-heard-of manner.” TO NOTIFY BRYAN. Ihe populist are also beginning to agitate the question of notify ing Bryan of his nomination. The so lowing editorial appears in The People’s Party Paper: “tVe regret to say that up to this time Mr. Bryan has not been notified ihat two million voters have honored him by nominating him as their candidate for presi dent. “Just whose fault it is, we are not at this time prepared to say, but that it is clearly the fault of some one there is not a shadow of a doubt in the hearts of the rank and file of the two million voters. We have every reason to hope that Chairman Butler will give this matter his early considera tion. “If the committee on notifica tion fails to do its duty, by all means appoint a committed that wi'l. It is too humiliating to think that the populists of this country are afruid ty no'ify the man they have honored, especially when ev ery effort was made by the rep resentatives of Mr. Bryan to get tbe nomination. From the letters received st this office it is evident that the voters who compose the pcpulist party want to know if Mi Bryan appreciates their ac tion. We would gladly honcr him, and co-operate for the cause of silver, but silver is not all there is in this life; we have some pride, and it will not allow American citizens to throw their pearls to one who is ready to turn and rend them.” Peary Finds Lots of ice. St. John’s, N. F., Aug. 27. Lieut. Peary’s par'y reached Turnavick, Labrador, July 20. af ter a quick run from Sydney.

Peary reported seeing a large amount of ice and numero s ice bergs along the coast. He is cer tain to find a worse condition fuither North. Many people here believe he will have much trouble from ice in crossing Melville Bay. Bryan Pays a Reward- Pittsburg. Aug. 27.— County Chairman Joseph Howley yes'er day received a letter from William j. Bryan, dated at Upper Red Hook, N. Y. The candidate wrote : “We have received the ring which Mrs. Bryan lost in Pitts burp, and I ".close »10. the cost of the ring, as a reward Io the finder.” ... The $lO was m one bill. Mr. Bryan concluded by saying that he hoped to meet Mr Howley again in person at the Democratic S*ate League at Erie on Wednes day. SENT IT TO HIS MOTHER IN GERMANY.
