A KEYNOTE
FOR OHIO
Is Sounded on the Silver
Chord
DELEGATES DIFFER ON MEN
BUT AGREE ABSOLUTELY ON
DOCTRINE
A Ticket Nominated and Its Victory
Will Be the Prelude to Bryan's
Election in 1900
Associated Press Special Wire.
COLUMBUS, Ohio.June 30—The Dem
ocratic state convention here today was'
one of the most memorable political oc
casions in the history of Ohio. It was
a convention of unanimity on principles
and of dlfferenceson men, and especially
those who were candidates for places on
the state ticket. In the contest for fa
vorites it was a convention of endur
ance, as the delegates took no recess and
were in session continuously from 10 a.
m. until almost that hour tonight.
It was a free silver convention
throughout. Every candidate whose
name was presented was announced as
orthodox on silver and the silver doc
trine was the cardinal principle for hi*
favorable consideration. While there
were some differences of opinion about
adopting the anti- trust and'the Cuban
resolutions, there was not a dissenting
voice in the convention to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio
of sixteen to one, without the co-opera
tion of any other nation. And the name
of William J. Bryan was mentioned In
some way by every speaker as the only
sure way of bringing out a chorus of ap
plause.
While there was no place on the state
ticket accorded to either the Silver Re
publicans or to the Populists, yet repre
sentatives of both these elements co-op
erated in the convention and informal
fusion was perfected. The Sliver Re
publicans and the Populists are them-
selves responsible for having no repre
sentatives on the ticket, as they would
not ask it and stated that they were
more interested in the platform than In
the offices. Out of 956 votes cast for su
preme Judge, there ware 92 for John J.
Harper, a Silver Republican. R. T
Hough, the favorite for governor, was
slaughtered because of the opposition or
the rural districts to the McLean men
using the larger delegations from Cin
cinnati, Cleveland, Toledo and oth»r
cities to dictate the head' of the ticket.
Those running next were Chapmai ,
Welty and Sorg. Welty'sname was not
presented after his friends learned that
Chapman had been agreed upon as the
compromise candidate. Hough's name
was withdrawn before the balloting be
gan and the name of Sorg was with
drawn before the result of the first bal
lot was announced. Although the Mc-
Lean men had been In conference dur
ing the night and had agreed to go to
Chapman they scattered their vote on
the first ballot and did not concentraU'
on Chapman on their second ballot more
than was necessary to nominate, so as
to dissipate as much as possible the re
port that McLean was naming the state
ticket. It is conceded that the McLean
men had an understanding with Mr.
Chapman and hte managers before the
convention and the vote of the strong
McLean counties for Chapman bears
out the report. In addition to the stats
ticket nominated there Is an implied ar
rangement for John R. McLean for sen
ator with the state candidates as well
as the party organization for him. Still
it is reported that ex-Congressman Paul
J. Sorg will also be in the field for sena
tor. The McLean men did not name
their first favorite for governor or holo
the resolutions as they had fixed them
last night, but these concessions were
made in the interest of harmony. They
wanted nothing in the platform but the
declaration for free silver as the para
mount issue, but they would not vote
againsit anti-trust and Cuban resolu
tions when once presented. And they
claim all the favor and co-op
eration with Mr. Chapman that they
could have with Judge Hough without
entailing prejudice from the rural dis
tricts for having arbitrarily used their
power.
When it became necessary for the Mc-
Lean forces to rally to Chapman on the
second ballot, in order to end the con
test, the solid vote of Highland county,
the home of Waugh, went with the del
egations from Cincinnati, Cleveland,
Toledo and other cities that were strong
ly for whatever McLean wanted.
When the convention was called trfor
der by Chairman W. W. Durbin of the
State Central Committee, he congratu
lated the party on the signs of the times
and the enthusiasm in the party. He
made a speech for free silver. After
prayer by Rev. E. L. Rexford of the
Universalist Church, Hon. Ulrich Sloane
was introduced as temporary chairman.
A SILVER SPEECH
Chairman Ulric Sloan said: ''The peo
ple of Ohio, and, Indeed, of the union,
are to be congratulated upon this large
assemblage, for It is a convention of
representatives of the whole people, the
masses and not the bosses of trusts or
syndicates, or. of the hired tools of the
despotism of Wall and Lombard street's
greed. This convention comes from the
common people and owes its allegiance
alone to them and is not here to record
the edict of any self-constituted "boss"
ruling, not because of distinguished
services to the country as statesmen,
patriot or soldier, nor by force of great
intellectual attainments, but .by the
sheer brute force of wealth.
"In these respects what a contrast it
offers to the late convention at Toledo.
I do not say that the late Republican
convention at Toledo, for that conven
tion was not called, organized or con
trolled along the- lines of what the fath
LOS ANGELES, THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 1, 1897 p er f Qf»
ci's of the Republican party taught, but
merely to obey the mandates and do the
will of Mark Hanna, ruling by a veri
tably brute force, as did any robber
barron of the middle ages. Assembled
at Toledo were men, all bearing the ear
tag of either Hanna or Foraker, rival
bosses, and representing the victory for
one or the other such bosses in every
county of the state. And such body
hypocritically assumed to be actlng.for
the country's welfare. The contests at
the Democratic primaries, where there
could have been said to be a contest,
were friendly rivalry as to candidates
for governor. They were not as to which
boss should be enthroned.
"It is expected that your temporary
chairman shall strike the key note of
the coming campaign. Well, that key
note shall be sounded on a silver chord.
It will be no new note, but a prolonga
tion of that sounded by the national
convention at Chicago last summer and
one that has grown In power and volume
since carried in a grand diapason of
over six million voices to the polls last
November. There may be some in this
convention, though I doubt it, who
hoped that the silver note was silenced.
There were many in the land who imme
diately after last November election
hoped and believed so, but to all such
Republicans, McKinley Democrats or
followers of the- dudes and dotards who
met at Indianapolis the renewal of the
slogan of free silver, arid In Kentucky,
will be a warning that the fiery cross is
speeding over mountain and valley,
over hill and dale, over field and forest,
summoning the silver clansmen to fight
the great battle for the people and re
ceiving no weak or uncertain response,
Who doubts that the rich men are des
pots, who that looks calmly ahead but
knows that unless prevailing conditions
are soon changed the poor will become
'banditti?' Five millions of men are
begging for leave to toil All classes
cry to the McKinley administration for
bread and are offered a stdne.
"The people ask for money and Char
ley Grosvenor pitches them a sugar beet.
"The panacea for all the Ills attempted
to be'applied by the present administra
tion is higher taxes. The duties provided
for in the Dingley bill are laid expressly
for the so-called protection of certain
industries which must be so favored be
cause of an ante-election contract to
that effect made by Mark Hanna for
a valuable consideration. It is a bill such
as James G. Blame denounced as not
designed to furnish a market for a bar
rel of flour or a pound of pork. The fea
tures of the bill, if sufficient—as Is
claimed for it —to increase our revenue
do not disclose the elements which will
bring prosperity generally to the coun
try and the bill furnishes no remedy to
put a Stop to the raids on the gold re
serve whenever it may suit the policy or
greed of the Pierpont Morgans or the
Rothschilds to make them.
"The Democratic party believes there
is a remedy for the present ills. It is
the restoration by law to its ancient con
stitutional and lawful place alongside
gold of the silver dollar, with free and
unlimited coinage for both at the ratio
of 16 to 1, and both endowed with the
full legal tender pwer In payment of
all dtbfs public and private. With such
legislation accomplished, national bi
metallism will soon follow, and the peo
ples of the earth will be free from the
tyranny of a selfish money oligarchy.
"All other questions sink into Insig
nificance compared with that of the res
toration of the 'dollar of the daddies.'
Let that be our war cry and make that
the end and aim of our warfare.
"Victory thus won will be but the
prelude to the muoh greater victory we
shall win when, In 1900. under the lead
ership of William J. Bryan, we shall
sink the golden idol in the sea of eter
nal obscurity, harmless for evermore."
The Committee on Rules and Order of
Business referred the question of leav
ing the vacancy on the State tick
et to be filled by the Statf League of Sil
ver Republicans back ',0 the conven
tion without recommend itlon.
The-report of the Cred ?ntialsCommlt
tee was adopted and tbi temporary or

vigor, after which the convention, at 9
p. m.. adjourned, after' being ir« session
continuously for eleven hours.
The Silver Republicans held a confer
ence tonight and expressed great indig
nation. They said it was true 1 they had
announced that they did not want a
place on the state ticket, but the an
nouncement was not made until they
were told that they could 1 not have it.
They nominated a separate ticket. The
Populists also announced that they
would hold a state convention and nom
inate a separate ticket. The Prohibi
tionists will have two separate tickets,
so there will be at least six state tickets
In the field.
THE RIGHT COURSE
LARAMIE, Wye, June 30.—While in
this city today Mr. Bryan, who had Just
tead the platform of the platform of the
allied' silver forces ofiOhio,jwasjasked:
"What do you think of the platform?"
Mr. Bryan promptly replied: "The Ohio
Democrats took-exactly the right course.
They indorsed the Chicago platform and
decided the money question to be the
paramount issue. Just as the Chicago
platform did. The reform forces can,'
1 believe, carry Ohio this;fall,i and it is
a consummation devoutly to be wished."

the roads were- looking- for.
SWARMS OF TOURISTS
KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 30—Eight
thousand people, delegates to the Chris
tian Endeavor convention at San Fran
cisco and others taking advantage ol
the cheap excursion rate, literally
swarme dthe union depot today. With
out an exception the trains from the
east were run in four or five sections.
The largest delegation came from New-
Jersey in fourteen seepers. In all about
300 carloads of people have passed
through since yesterday.
Another train hurrying over the Bur
lington at 1 p. m. and carrying 320 pas
senegrs will endeavor to make a record
run. The Santa Fe, Missouri Pacific and
Union Pacific each sent out three or four
sections of every regular train.
At 3 oclock Thursday morning the
Santa Fe will start west its new mail
service train, which it is calculated will
iand eastern mails in Kansas and Col
orado six to nine hours earlier than
heretofore. The train will carry a large
party of railroad officials and newspaper
men on the initial trip.
UNGODLY GAMES
LINCOLN, Neb.,> on board' the Chris
tian Endeavor train, June 30—This del
egation of California excursionists ar
rived at 2 oclock for dinner, which was
followed by a rousing song and praise
service on the station platform.
Considerable commotion was caused
en route from Red Oak, lowa, by four
Chicago school ma'ams who engaged
in a game of cinch. These young women
who are not Chrlsticn Endeavorers, firs',
sotight be consent of the Rev Mr. fHll
lock, whose sole rejoinder was. "Ac",
according to your own conscience."
The fair card players were soon mixed
up in a lively round of cinch, and their
example was promptly followed by other
young people on board, while one elder
ly gentleman in a corner was Indulging
in a game of solitaire. This state of af
fairs was reported to the manager of the
party, who said that any members of
the society found' playing cards would
be stopped immediately.
ON THE ROUTE
Journeys Happily Begun End in Hid
eous Disaster
CHICAGO, June 30.—Three persons
were killed and thirty injured in a rear
end collision on the C. & N. W. Road
early this morning at West Chicago,
thirty miles out. The dead are:
MRS. R. SHIPMAN, Appleton, Wis.
MRS. JOHN GOODING, Austin, Nev.
UNKNOWN TRAMP, riding upon the
front end of the baggage car.
The colliding trains were sections four
and five of the Christian Endeavor spec -
ial sent out in nine sections. Section five
ran into four, which left Chicago fifteen
minutes ahead of it. The latter section
carried the Wisconsin delegates, near
ly five hundred. The shock of the col
lision was terrific. Passengers In the
two rear sleepers of number four were
asleep In their berths when the crash
came. They received no warning and
those not killed outright awoke to find
themselves Jammed In the wreckage.
Engineer Charles Courtney of section
five, who stuck to his post, was one of
the first of the injured removed from the
wreck. Strange to say, the rear sleeper
did not suffer mast, being driven with
such force into the one ahead as to crush
the latter into match-wood. Passengers
in the second sleeper therefore suffered
the most. The scenes during the work
of removing the victims from the wreck
age were heartrending. Four sections
which followed the wrecked trains were
delayed over three hours.
As the road is protected by the block
system and the signals were all In work
ing order the officials are utterly unable
to account for the accident. Until
Courtney sufficiently recovers to ex
plain why he passed the danger signal
the facts cannot be ascertained.
INDIANAPOLIS, June 30.—Train No.
11 on the Vandalia road, which left here
last evening containing a large number
of Christian Endeavorers for San Fran
cisco, collided with No. 6, eastbound from
St. Louis, last night.
R. T. Sherman, mail clerk of No. 6,
and W. P. Coon, baggage master of No.
11, were killed and two others fatally in
jured. Although ordered to meet the
eastbound train at Vandalia, the west
bound train pulled out.

Hawaiian Treaty to Remain in Fore*

Associated Press Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, June 30.—As a result
of the rapid work on the tariff bill today
the close of the lons' debate in the senate
and'the final vote on the bill is felt to be
very near at hand. Two of the most
Important provisions, those relating to
the Hawaiian treaty of reciprocity and
the duty on coal, were perfected today,
while 1 another source of much conflict,
the reciprocity section, was matured by
the finance committee and presented to
the senate. Aside from these larger
items, a great many minor ones, whlclf
have caused more or less conflict, were
disposed of. The Hawaiian provision
of the house bill was restored 1 after a
brief debate, and without the formality
of a vote. This had the effect of leaving
the Hawaiian treaty of reciprocity in>full
force and effect.
During the day Turpie of Indiana spoke
in support of the amendment for a two
percent tax on inheritances*. His speech
was notable for its picturesque meta
phors, and the virulence of his denun
ciation, of the pending bill.
Turpie spoke of the statements fre
quently made as to the straits of the
United States treasury, its insolvency
and bankruptcy. Such statements were
unwarranted and tended only to shake
public confidence. Today there was a,
large surplus in the treasury, the last
official statement showing $135,000,000
available cash balance. In sarcastic
tones Turpie declared that the tariff bill
was the Joint product of two parties—one
the party that had come into power last
November; the other the party in office.
One was a mercenary organization, the
other political, and both had entered 1 into
a compact on a tariff bill. Neither
branch had any anxiety as to the treas- ,
ury or the amount of the deficit, except
as it served political ends. Hawaii
must wait, Cuba must wait, pensions
must wait, every interest of legislation
must wait, while these two parties ex
ecuted their plans.
Turpie declared that the bill was
founded on prohibitory lines, to keep out
articles, including revenue, and' in hia
Judgment it could not produce, with all
other sources of revenues, $450,000,000. It
would prove'a blanket too short to cover
the corpus delicti of the annual deficit.
The theory pursued was the fallacious
one, that of raising rates by raised
revenues.
Turpie bitterly arraigned the bill, say
ing that no measure had been presented
making "so large and unprovoked a
spoliation of the world's commerce."
There was compound larceny In nearly
every schedule. One-third of the bill
was a declaration of kar against France,
Germany and the continent of Europe.
We had hopefully looked toward the
trade of South America, but this bill
made it almost a penal offense to carry
on trade with the southern republics.
The senator said the amendment for
an inheritance tax was urged by the
minority in good faith as a means of
raising revenue. It proposed but a small
contribution for the support of th,e gov
ernment. It afforded a means of reach
ing the vast accumulations of wealth
which in time must be touched! by death
and distributed through the channels
or inheritance.
Turpie denounced the protective sys
tem in bitter terms, his unique figures
of speech attracting much attention.
Referring to the enormous bounty to
go to the wool manufacturers" he de
clared that it was not for the interest of
the sheep, out for the wolves in sheep's
clothing who would strip from the babe
in its cradle the articles essential to its
use. We had developed in this country
a new breed of ainmals. "They are the
tariff swine," exclaimed Turpie. "The
high protective tariff ewlne. They are
feeders, with fierce appetltea
and a regard only for the infant indus
try of bristles."
The senator went on to characterize
the rates of the bill as akin to bribery
and rapine, dictated by a "banditti of
syndicates." And yet, he declared, out
of this unclean mass of bribes and gifts
it was expected to distill the pure water
of prosperity. "Ycu might as well ex
pect to enjoy paradise by entering the
domain of the damned."
Turpie spoke about two hours, and re
ceived close attention. He closed with
a reference to the silver question, as
serting that there was no more right
to abandon the free coinage of silver
than to abandon the free coinage of
gold.
When the tariff bill was taken up
Quay of Pennsylvania gave notice of
reconsideration of paragraph 118 (iron
ore), for the purpose of securing further
action on a clause inserting manganese
ore at $1 per ton.
Allison proceeded with the detached
paragraphs passed over. On bleaching
powder the duty was changed from one
quarter of a cent to one cent per pound.
Vest moved to place It on the free list,
and a long debate ensued on the use of
bleach In paper pulp factories. .
The committee provision was agreed
to, 30 to 27. McEnery, Democrat, of
Louisiana, voted with the Republicans
In the affirmative, and Teller and. Mantle '
with the Democrats in the negative.
Butler of North Carolina moved to
place gypsum on the free list. Rejected,
24 to 30. The paragraph was then agreed
