Cyrus B. Wat son, Democratic candidate for Governor. TO HELP McKIKLEY. It has not been announced what position President Cleveland and his official advisers will pursue in refer renc 5 to supporting or opposing the ticket ' nominated at Chicago, but it mav be pretty safely assumed that whether 4t meet witn open opposi tion or not it will not meet with any countenance or encouragement from Washington. There are rumors to the effect that Mr. Cleveland wil shortly write a letter1 expressive of his views and that In, that letter he will favor the calling of a convention and the nomination of an opposition ticket. There is probably some foundation for this, but whether he write, such a letter as this may de pend upon the response that come in to the , third ticket call. If they be such as to give "reason to believe that the convention would not prove a fizzle as to numbers and the prom inence of thosewho would attend it, he may write the letter. But no letter is necessary to indi cate the feeling of Mr. Cleveland as to the Chicago platform and ticket for that has been pretty well fore shadowed by the utterances of those who come close enough to him to know his sentiments. Secretary Herbert did not hesitate to declare when asked what he would do that he would not support the ticket, and went so far as to , characterfze the platform as a Populistic one. As sistant Secretary oP'the ' Treasury, Hamlin, who went as one of the "sound money" missionaries to Chi cago, said on his return to Washing ton'that there would be "no politics" in the next campaign, that "all pa triots should unite," &c, which meant that no Democrat is in fealty bound by the action of the Chicago Convention. The significance in this is that it was said by a high official after he had met and conversed with Secretary Carlisle, and the President. Comptroller Eckels, who also stands in pretty high feather at Washington and was one of the most mouthy of the so called "sound money" mission aries at Chicago, is one of the most zealous and loquacious promoters of the movement for another conven tion and for a third ticket. He em phasizes the importance of defeat- ing the ticket nominated at Chicago uy predicting "rum and disaster" if it uc cictiea. ah tnese men are so devoted to the President, so tied to him that they would never have ex pressed themselves as they have if they had any doubt that in doing so they voiced his sentiments, so that from the developments so far - 1 . r we ining 11 pretty saie to assume tnat Mr. Cleveland, bis official ad visers and the dependents who take their cue from him and them will not support the ticket nominated at Chicago, but in preference will give their indirect aid to McKinley. Of course they haven't the shadow of a hope of electing a gold Demo crat to the Presidency if one should be nominated, for they- would have to depend altogether on the votes of men who call themselves Democrats, as they Ao. They couldn't draw from the Republican party, for the Republican gold men are pretty well satisfied with the St. Louis platform, since they were permitted to have a hand in the making of It, They con sider it a gold ".platform, have got Mr. Hanna and his '- protege, Mcr Kinley, where they wanted them, and have no occasion to go outside of the Republican party to fight for gold. This being so the only effect of another so called Democratic ticket would be to give the gold Democrats who would , vote it a chance to throw their votes away, to divide the Democrats and to that extent help elect McKinley, whom the favorers of this movement would much rather see in the presidential chair than Bryan. We are not disposed to overlook the fact that Mr.Cleveland and those who stand close to him and are more or less under his influence feel very much chagrined at the outcome of the convention not only for adopting a free silver platform, but in nomi nating a ticket without asking the consent of the gold men who went there to tell it what to do, but also for refusing to endorse the Adminis tration but neither of these is a suf ficient cause for sulking and fighting the party after they had gone into the convention and used all the re- . . 1 . ' j. .. sources witnin cneir commanu iu carry it their way. If they had suc ceeded and silver Democrats did as- they are now doing and propose to do,- they would pronounce the silver sulkers very dis loyal to the party. For months they knew that the silver men would have a majority in that convention, and that a free silver platform would be adopted, but they planned to ob struct further progress, prevent the nomination of a candidate, and thus render abortive the efforts of the free silver men. tire the convention out and force it to adopt some com promise acceptable to them. They voted on the platform and when their plans failed and they saw they could not prevent the nomination of a ticket, most of them refused to vote for President and Vice Presi dential candidates. Knowing all this as they did, they should either not have gone into that, convention, or they should have acquiesced in the result, loyally if not cheerfully. If they could, when they failed to dictate the platform, they would have forced the silver men to secede, and then they would have claimed to be the regular convention and would have adopted a gold platform ahd nominated a ticket. But the silver men'caught on to their game and blocked it. When they talk about a third ticket now tbey are simply saying what they had in view then in the event the conven tion went against them. If they nominate a ticket they may show their ' spite against the Chicago ticket, but that's all, for the ticket they put out will not receive votes enough to make them worth count ing. There are thousands of Demo crats who whether they approve of all that is in the Chicago platform or not, will not endorse that kind o party disloyalty . and knifing and will not lend themselves to the elec tion of McKinley and the restora tion of the Republican party to power, with all that implies. MIBOS MEHTI05. Senator Butler has been playing a very foxy game and he thinks he has been playing a shrewd one, but the trouble with Mr: Butler is that he overestimates his1 cunning when he imagines that he can fool everybody He started out early playing for co operation with the Democrats of this State and when fie found hecouldn'i play the game he wanted with them he sidled over to the Republican side and has been feeling the chances of making an advantageous dicker with them. In the meantime his paper shoots darts at Senator Pritch ard. for going back on free silver and jumping on the gold band wagon be hind Hanna and McKinley, and Mr. Butler writes editorials laudatory of Candidate Bryan but denunciatory of the party and convention which nominated him. His pecking at his colleague Pritchard is to make the Populists believe that hs is really sincere in his professions for free silver, and his laudation of Bryan is to make his support easier in the event the convention which meets In St. Louis to-morrow decide to en dorse him. In that case, while Mr. Butler is fighting hard to prevent the endorsement, he cannot consistently oppose him. But if Mr. Butler should make a deal with the Republican managers in this State, can be com ply with the compact and deliver the goods? We don't believe he can, We don't believe he is "a birrer man J than his jhtf ty," or that he can lead the Populists of this State into the Russell camp. He may carry with him some of the aspirants who have their eve on the pie counter, but the honest masses of the people will see through the transparent trickery and hypocrisy that give the lie to the professions of loyalty to them and sincerety in the cause he pretends to advocate. senator Smith, of New Tersev. is wuat tney call a "sound money Democrat, but Senator Smith . . . Democrat all the same, who .on' believe in turoinsr the n - ""'tl UlUCUl over to the Republicans because the emocrauc -National Committee de. dined to let the gold standard men of the H-ast and their representatives from other sections dictate the plat form of the party and name its can- :..' - m m . - ' . aiaates. in tne following extract from a letter to the chairman of the 1 Democratic Committee of CiSsex f county hqtalks sense and talks like a loyal Democrat: While there mav be some difference of opinion in oar ranks on the financial question, I do not oenevs we are more unfortuna e in this respect than our op ponents. In my judgment neither the business men. the waee-wdrkers of the country, nor the Republican party itself has much confidence in Mckinley. His position as a financier is shifting and uncertain His tariff views are destruc tive, if enforced, to national prosperity, and have twice been overwhelmingly re pudiated. He , was nominated by a financial syndicate, and not in response to any popular demand. His election would be a calamity. ; - 1 ; New Jersey Is one of the States which the Republicans were count ing upon carrying on the tariff issue and with that view, to "get a better hold on the State, they nominated Mr. Hobart for Vice President, and since the Chicago platform declared for free silver they have been count ing upon the co-operation of gold standard Democrat. .Senator Smith sees through their game, : says so, and at the same time administers a deserved rebuke to those so called Democrats in high places for the aid and comfort they are giving the sup porters of McKinley. Minnesota is one of the States which the Republican managers had down on their slate, but the latest dispatches from St. Paul : inform us that that the gold men are going to make ?'a hot fight.". When they an nounce their determination to make a hot fight in a State in which they didn't regard it as necessary to make much of a fight, the Inference Is that they have made some unpleas ant discoveries. They find them selves: now confronted by a pros pective solid array of free silver men, who for the time being will lay aside other issues to make a united fight for a change in the monetary system, the demand for which is made not only by Democrats and Populists, but by thousands of Republicans who have heretofore loyally sup ported the Republican party. We have little, doubt that the alliance referred to in the St. Paul dispatch published in our press columns Sun day morning will be effected and this will mean a clear cut issue and a stand up fight between the friends of the double standard, and the sup porters of the single gold standard, as it should be everywhere The Baltimore Sun prides itself on me lace tnat it nas always oeen a paper for the "plain people " Well, the Sun is a rattling good paper, but it is getting so badly tangled up in this gold business that ; the plain people may get to doubting whether it Is really the paper for them. CURRENT COMMENT. The gold democrats might take advantage of Col. Watterson's absence and make him their nomi nee. Then there would-be a march, through the slaughterhouse to an open grave. Washington Rost, Ind. Mr. William Bryan appears to have Mr. Benjamin Harrison's happy faculty of being able to make a good speech at every station be passes on his journeys. He has the advantage of Mr. Harrison, however, in having made at least one . speech that was not forgotten as soon as it - was made. Charleston News & Courier, JJetn. ; -IV'; It is 1 Mr. Hanna's plan to nave the manufacturers of the coun try give their employes "object les sons" on the financial question by reducing wages until the! defeat of the Chicago ticket is assured. That is the old high tariff way of convinc ing workmgmen, and the; manufac turers took quite kindly to it while tbe McKinley law was in operation. IV ew York Journal, Dent. , It is unjust for the bolting Democratic papers and their Repub lican contemporaries to refer to the Democratic Convention as having been a gathering of Socialists be cause unman and Aitgeid were prominent in the gathering. It should be remembered that Altgeld's alleged dominating influence was mostiy on paper, and never material ized, while Tillman was hissed by many delegates and the! audience every time there was an opening to do so. ; Altgeld and Tillman and their Socialistic and Anarchistic ideas were unmistakably condemned.
