True Democracy. Washington Post. ' ' r The Post has repeatedly shown that the Chicago Convention was not only Demo cratic, bnt probably the -most Democratic of all the national gatherings that have ever taken place under the auspices of that or any other 'party in Hhef United States. The Chicago platform is not the Pop ulist creed is not what Peffer and Samp son and Lease have been putting forth. The one feature of that platform which Eastern Democrats denounce; the one issue which it raises in such shape as to effect something like a realignment of parties; the isuue so important that all others are rapidly disappearing, is the declaration for free coinage. This is not Populism, but Democracy. The Demo cratic Party has been a free coinage party ever since that issue appeared in the poli tical arena. Where is the Democratic State that is not for free coinage? When did a majority of the Democrats in Con gress ever omit an opportunity to vote for free coinage? And who will assert that the victory won by the free coinage wing of the party was not the result of .a long, open, bold fight, in which the victors had the disadvantage of opposing a Demo cratic administration? The New York Sun's Picture of Dr. Mott. Our esteemed contemporar', the Spring field Union, adorns itself and makes west ern Massachusetts happy with a portrait of the Hon. Jonah Jeremiah Mott, Chair man of the Silver party and the only North Carolinian of the nineteenth century who was born not merely with a silver spoon but with a silver trumpet and popgun in his mouth. There be is, in the picture, good enough to melt up and recoin, mild, melancholy, bearded like a pard, but a re flective pard, a pard with views. The high, transparent forehead gleams with an almost unearthly pallor. The gloom of those pensive eyes is deeper than the ocean. The hand is stretched out to greet the delegates who do not come, and to .grasp the future with a tragic clasp. It is related of this excellent Tar Heel philo pher that on one occasion, in a lonely field in his native State, he met a bull of the most ferocious kind, a bull with a record of casualties as long as a Pup platform. The bull charged at once, and in deadly style. Dr. Mott gazed into those inflamed taurine orbs with his own in-ffably sad and gentle eyes. "Friend,' hp said fo the bull, "before you go an f nt ' in t I wish t.. iive you luy views on the Cum- f 1873 " The bull gaZ'-d into those hhm. est evx. began to weep bitterly, ran away at ful; speed to Raleigh, and then commi'ted sui -de in a china shop. It was a pity, for if he had lived be would certainly have been converted to Dr. Mott's opinions. The Succession of Altgeld. New York Sun. Thousands of hands are raised in holy horror at Governor Altgeld of Illinois, the ruling man at the National Convention of the Democratic party. Yet Altgeld, the friend of Anarchists, the coddler of riot, the rampant free silverite, is but the legi timate and, as all must see no-.v, the in evitable successor of the Democratic boss of four years ago, Grover Cleveland, who, standing in Madison Square Garden in this city, exfctnded his campaign blessing to the murderers of Homestead. The torch raised by Cleveland is now in Alt geld's hands, blazing harder, but the same. It could not have been supposed at the time that such an atrocious bid for votes could be made in a Presidential contest without trouble resulting from it. In one respect Altgeld is a less danger ous man than Cleveland, for the reason that he is honest and works for his ends straigfit and openly; but Altgeld is a very dangerous man all the same. Free silver is not the whole of the Altgeld programme. Mr. Bryan condensed a great deal of solid Democracy in the following remark taken from his speech at Sedalia, 111.: "I don't want any man to vote for me be cause he thinks if I am elected I will help him to put his hand in somebody else's pocket. All I expect to do is to prevent somebody else from putting his hand into your pocket." Mr. Bryan is not indulging in any personalities in this campaign and consequently this remark had no direct reference to Mr. McKinley, but if Mr. Mo Kinley had been there he doubtless would have felt the force of it. City, Ordinance. At a meeting of the Board of Alermen held July 23d, 1896, the following Ordinance was adopted, to take effect on and after this date : It shall be unlawful for any person or per sons to ride a Bicycle on the board-walk from Liberty Point to the Mclntyre' building; or, on the board-walks leading to Eooles bridge.
