The Populist convention wound up
their labovr in St. Louis Saturday
afternoon by nominating for Presi
dent Wra. J. Bryan, of Nebraska.
The o: der of nanpog the candidates
had been reserved and the Vice Pres
idential candidate had been nomi-
natedfirst. .Thog K Watson, of
Georgia, wes named for this office.
Notwithstanding the fact tbat Mr.
Bryao had sent a telegram to Senator
Jones, chairman of the Democratic
national committee, saying he could
rot accept the Populist nomination
un'ess Bewail was nominated also,
the Populist went ahead and nomi
nates the JNeorastan aimoet without
opposition and amid great enthusi
asm. 7
Mr. Bryan was placed in nomina
tion by Gen. J. B. Weaver, of Iowa,
President ial candidate on the People's
party ticket four years ago. Mr.
Weaver said:
VMr. Chairman. I ariBe before you
this morning, in mT judgment, facing
the most critical period that has ever
occurred in the Populist party. If
you have all read the papers this
morning you have read the manly
dispatch from the Democratic nomi
nee for the presidency, tne uon.
William J Bryan. (Applause.) No
man could have done less and be a
man. Ilia manly attitude concerning
the action of this convention, we
must all respect, and every member
of it. and every person who re ids the
proceedings of this convention must
do the same. But, my fellow citi
zens, this question has reached a
point where neither Mr.: Bryan.nor
his personal mends have any right
whatever to say as to what the action
of this convention shall be. ' (Cheers.)
This is a greater question than
the personality of its candidates,
and I, as an individual, tell you tbat
that is the fact. Alter your action
last night, after I had read the tele
grams from Mr. Bryan, I utterly re
fused, and I here and now utterly re
fuse to confer either with Mr. Bryan
or Mr. Jonei as to who shall be the
nominee of this convention. (Loud
applause) That is a matter that we
have a riant to determine lor our
selves. It is the relief of 70.000,000
people that is at stake. Now then I
am here to do but one thing and to
ask the consideration and attention
of this convention to tbat one thin?.
We have constantly ursd, through
good and through evil report, that
our principles were more important
than party associations: were above
all considerations of private fortunes
or the petty and feverish ambitions
of men. we have thus far suited
our action to our words. This coun
try has recently witnessed a new
Pentecost and received another bap
tism of fire. The recent convention
at Chicago pounded a bugle call for
union which can neither be mis
understood, nor go unheeded. In
its patriotic Utterances and action, it
swept away all middle grounds and
opened the road to a formidable, or
ganic alliance. They cot only made
union possible, thane heaven, thev
have rendered it inevitable. , Krom

Th Prealdent of the Staadard Oil
psny and Hla Bride,
President Henry H Rogers of the
Standard Oil company, who married
Mrs. Emelle A. Randel a few days ago
is said to have acquired a fortune of
$65,000,000 by transactions In oiL The
bridegroom Is 63, years old, but his well
preserved physique and vigorona bnoy
ancy of manner seem to take nearly a
quarter century from his age.
Mr. IkOgers was born at Fairbaven,
CJonn., and his first wife wa-also a na
tive of that town. When she died, three
years ago, Mr. Rogers gave $300,000 for
the building of a church to her memory
at Fairhaven. .-, ' .r
He is looked up to as the presiding
genius of the Connecticut village. Hit
$1,000,000 country place there is one of
the finest in New England, and his an
nual expenditures there are lavish. Al
though far richer than many of the mil
lionaires whose names are synonyms for
wealth, M Rogers is singularly retir
ing and free from vulgar display. For
this reason his fame as a multimillion
aire is comparatively align t, except
among the persons who have benefited
by his charities.
These charities are not accompanied
by brass band attachment, and few of
them creep into the newspapers, for
which reason the public has no idea of
their extent
Mr. Rogers is said to have started his
business career as driver of a grocery
wagon. Ilia rise in me ana tne popular
ity and respect he commands now in
business circles are matters of New York
history.
Mrs. Randel, his bnde, is 45. She
married Lucius R. Hart 25 years ago,
and lived with him for 20 years. At the
end of that time, suspecting bis fidel
ity, she set detectives to watch him, and

QUEER SOCIETIES.
ertlaent Query About Silver. .
A writer in the Washington Post .
asks a mumber of questions which
our goldite friends may ponder over
and answer at their leisure. He asks: J'
First. If by opening our mints to :
silver we will drop to a silver btsis,
have a 52 cents dollar, that the. dollar
will be worth no more than the sub
stance out of which it will be made;
tbat is tbat the substance will be '
worth no more when coined than be
fore. How is the owner of the sub
stance .(the silver barons) to be ben
efited? How are they to make 43
cents by the operation? , . -
: Second. If the dollar will be worth
48 cents more than the substance out
of which it is made, how are we to
have a depreciated currency?
Third. If to open our mints to
silver will Mexicanize our people,
will not the adoption or continuation
of. the gold standard Italianize,
Anstrianize, or Egyptanize our
people? - --- -- -. .... .
Are the conditions of Mexican la
borers worse than the conditions of
laborers in the countries above
named, where, in some instances
(notably in Scicfly). the children are
sold into bondage, and labor is paid
for in stale bread and sour beer?
Fourth. Is there any danger of a
deluge of foreign silver in the face of
the following fects and figures:
Production of silver coin
age value. . . ...... . $209,000,000
Production of United
States and Mexico. ... 135,000,000
Production outside of
United States and Mex
ico... ......... 74,000,000
Coinage outside of the
United States and
Mexico . 98,000,000
Add $30,000,000 for manufacturing
purposes and we find that they use
$128,000,000 and produce only $74,
000,000, wh.'ch shows a deficit of $58,
000,000, at least, which they must
get from the United States and Mex
ico. Now, if tbey have to trade us
one ounce of gold for sixteen ounces
of silver, instead of one ounce of gold
for thirty ounces of silver, won't we
get the best of the bargain?
J'ifthu. Is it prophetic knowledge
or divine inspiration that has enabled
some writers to delve inW the bow.-ls
of the earth and ascertain the depos
its of minerals therein, and by rea
son of this divine gift they are
enabled to predict to a certainty that
our people are to be drowned in il-ver.

"The Mystic Band of the Great Email
cipator" is the latest secret political
organization to make its appearance in
Kansas. It is confined to negro voters.
It has gripe and signs, and is spreading
in the towns where there is negro popu
latioti. Its membership is said to be
against the election of John J. In galls
to the United States senate because he
advocated the deportation of negroes to
Africa when in the senate.
Probably one of the most unique se
cret sooieties eter organized, consider

V,Tiat costive people need is a natural
laxative like Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
which are powerful without being vio
lent. They move the bowels gradually
and comfortably but surely. You can
regulate the dose one, two or three
" Pellets "exactly as you need. They
strengthen the intestines to do their own
work, so that after their movements have
become regular they keep on naturally
of themselves.
The "Pleasant Pellets" gently stimu
late and invigorate the liver to throw off
biliousness ; and tone up the stomach to
secrete the digestive juices and over
come dyspepsia. The entire digestive,
or alimentary, tract is put in motion in
the regular steady way of nature and
health. This is what makes the " Pleas
ant Pellets" so immensely sunenor to
the numerous purging pills which wrench
and weaken the system. Druggists mav

The-" Pleasant Pellets " are tiny sugar
