HUHLEIOli ON SILVER.
St. Louis, Jun 11.-After ths sliver
men left the convention, Andrew P.
Burleigh, of Washington, spoke as fol
lows; "Coming from the only Pacific coast
tale which declared In Its platform
for th maintenance of the present gold
standard and against the free coinage
of illver, I deal re to take your atten
tion for one moment The young stste
of Washington, smaller than many of
her slater states In the Union, yields
first place for patriotic devotion to
the principle of thl government and
loyal allegiance to th tenet of th
Republican party to none. 'Applause.)
We have not come her to Imbibe In-
a pi rat Ion on the money queatlon. We
brought our Inspiration with ua. twen-' Capital was confident and labor plenty-five

now and Just as' fervent as before It j nd bold. The treasury was full, the
made the journey. We believe In the j public revenues ample for the public
single gold standard because we think

ed uiwn our banner, with protection, i
with reciprocity, with sound money j
as defined by this platform, and with
the unanimous choice of th Republl-;
cans of that state for president, Wm. t
McKlnley tat this point the building )
again shook with cheers and Mark
llanna was observed to bow his bead,
flushing with emotion) we shall go to
Republican victory at the poll In
November and with us will go the loyal
people of Montana."
THE SILVER MEN.
St. Louis, June 18. It was well un
derstood among the bolting delegates
that while only one delegate from
Montana, Congressman Hartman, went
out In the bolt, the full delegation wa
In perfect sympathy with the move
ment Including Senators Carter and
Mantle. They bad a difference of opin
ion about the necessity of going bodily
out of th hall, some of them taking
the position that It would be just as
effective for the delegates to remain
In their seats silent and without parti
cipating In the proceedings as It would
to walk out It Is confidently expected
that the Montana delegation will be
found working In perfect harmony with
their bolting colleagues. Counting Sen
ators Carter and Mantle and the four
senators. Teller, Dubois, Cannon and
Pettlgrew, who went out, there are six
of the senators who participated in
the protest against the gold plank.
They constitute almost one-seventh
of the Republcan strength In the sen-;
ate. Their defection reduced the Re-
publican representation In the senate , miserable results of those promises sre
to theirty-elght, and makes one Re- j all about us today. We have no prom
publican vote less than the Democrats. I lues to make. We pledge ourselves only
This of courae depends upon the ex- to that which we believe we can per-
tent to which Carter and Mantle will
Join In the Independent movement. The
liver men regard this as one of the
strongest grounds of vantage occupied
by them. During the afternoon an In
formal conference of dlsaffeoted dele
gates was held at Senator Dubois'
room. The conference was held be
hind closed doors but the proceedings
were given out. The essential feature
was the decision to place Senator Tel
ler In the field as a presidential candi
date. At 4 o'clock It was officially an
nounced to the members of the press
In waiting that the conference could
not give out Its appeal to the people
ufTlll tomorrow. In this appeal it Is
known that the nomination of Senator
Teller will be recommended for presi
dent and a declaration of principles
w ill be made.
There was reference to this day as
being the anniversary of the battle
of Waterloo.
Senators Mantle and Carter, of the
Montana delegation, were outspoken In
the opinion that there was no hope for j
the ticket In the west. It Is the be-;
Ilef of these gentlemen and all others :
who have been consulted from the west !
that there will not be a successful j
Republican elector west of the Missis-
slppl river outside of Iowa and possl
bly Minnesota. These gentlemen be-
lleVe that there will not be a Repub
lican elected south of the Potomac and
Ohio rivers.
THOSE WHO WALKED OUT.

egates who walked out were: Henry

The fact that Senator Pettlgrew,

prise of the day. He said on leaving
the hall that he had formed the deter
mination to Join the movement several
weeks ago, as soon as It became ap

would be adopted. When the senator

MORTON NOMINATED.
St. Louis, June 1. When Depew
wa nominating Morton for president,
and h had reached tb portion of hi
apeech referring to the gold standard,
a voice cried out, "What about the air
ing slaters who walked out of here a
while agoT'( Laughter.) Depew They
have deserted the Republican conven
tion, composed of representatives from
all section of tha United States, and
they walked out because they objected
to the gold standard. 1 wonder how
they will feel when they are at the
gat of the celestial city, where they
will find that It Is under Republican
government (laughter). I wonder how
they will feel when they find, as we're
told by the old apostle, streets paved
With gold (laughter)."
FOR REED.
St. Louis, June 11. The following
brilliant speech wa delivered by Hen
ry Cabot Lodge when be nominated
Reed for president:
Four year ago we met a we meet
now, representative of the Republl-
1 can party. Prosperity was In the land
need. We were at peace with all the
! world and had placed a prudent hand
i on the key of the Pacific. Four short
years have come and gone. Look
about now. The treasury Is empty; our
credit la Impaired. Our revenues are
deficient We meet the public need.
not with Income, but by borrowing at
high rates and pledging the future for
the wants of the present. Buslness'U
paralysed. Confidence bos gone. En-
terprlse has folded Its eagle wings and
mopes and blinks In tbe market place.
Our mills are Idle and our railroads
crippled. Capital hides Itself and labor
Idly walks the street There Is neither
a good day's wage nor a good day's
work. We have met with slight,
abroad and have serious differences
with other nation. The key of the
Pacific has allpped from nervous hand.
Foreign troops have been landed In
this hemisphere. Our own boundaries
have been threatened In Alaska. The
Monroe doctrine has been defended,
but Is not yet vindicated. Tbe people
of a neighboring Island fighting for
freedom, look toward us with Implor
ing eyes, and look In vain. The Amer
ican policy which would protect our
Industries at home and our flag abroad,
has faded and withered away.
Look, then, upon that picture and
upon this,
"Could you on that fair mountain
leave to feed and fatten on this moor?"
But four short Fears have come and
gone, and they have brought thl
change. What has happened? I -will
tell you In a word. The Democratic
party has beentn power. That Is the
answer. Upon us falls the heavy bur
den of binding up these woisnds and
bringing relief to allay this suffering.
The Democrats deceived the people by
j promising them the millenlum. and the
form,
We do our best that Is all; and
in law we savea ine en ion ana bdoi-
Ished slavery, so now In ISM we will
deal with the Democratic legacy of
blunders, bankruptcy and misfortune.
We are gathered here to choose the
next president of the United States.
That we will win In the election no
man doubts, but let us not deceive our
selves with the pleasant fancy that
that campaign is to be an easy one.
It will be a hard battle. It cannot be
otherwise when so much depends upon
the result.
Agalnfct the Republican party rep
resenting fixed American policies,
strength, progress and order, will be
arraigned, not only that organised fail
ure, the Democratic party, but all the
wandering forces of political chaos and
social disorders. It Is not merely the
presidency which is before us as a
prlie. The prosperity of the country,
the protection of our Industries, the
soundness of our currency, and the na
tional credit are all staked on the great
Ixsue to be decided at the polls next
November. On us relies the duty of
rescuing the country from the misery
Into which it has been plunged by
years of Democratic misrule. To drive
the Democrats from power Is the first
step and the highest duty but we shall
triumph In vain. In our turn shall meet
heavy punishment at the hands of the
people If we do not put our victory to
j right uses. Such a crisis as this can-
not be met and dealt with by shouts
1 of enthusiasm. We must face It as
our fathers faced slavery and disun
ion, with a grim determination to win
the battle and take up our responsi
bilities with the same spirit with which
we won that fight. As then, we can
hope to succeed only by the continuous
endeavor and now, as then, everything
depends upon the administration we
place in office. We want a president
who will meet this situation as Lin-
coin met that of 1861, with the chiefs
of the Republicans about him and
j with party and people at his back.
We want a president who on the 5th
day of next March will summon con
gress In extra session and refusing to
make appointments, or to deal with
patronage, will say that all else must
watt until congress sends to him a
tariff which shall put money In the
treasury and wages In the pockets of
the American worklngmen. We want
a president who will protect at all has.

Itor choose to demand and who never
forget that the nation which pay with
honor, borrows with ease. We want a
man who will guard th safety and
dignity of th nation at home and
abroad and Who will alway and con
stantly h firm and strong In dealing
with foreign nations. Instead of sud
denly varying a long course of weak
ness and Indifference with a convulsive
spasm of vigor and patriotism. Above
all we want a man who will lead his
party and act with It and who will not
by senseless quarrol between the
White House and the capltol, reduce
legislation and execution alike to Im
becility and failure. Such Is the man
we want for our great office In these
bitter time when the forces of dis
order are loosed and tha wrecker
with their false lights gathered at the
shore and lure the ship of state upon
the rocks. Such a man, fit for such
deeds, I am now to present to you. He
need no praise from me, for he has
proved his own title to leadership.
From what he la and what he has
done, we know what he can do. For
twenty years In victory and defeat at
the head of great malontles, and of
small majorities alike, he has lead his
party In congress with a power which
no man could dispute and with an abil
ity which never waned. I have seen
him with a maddened opposition storm
ing about him carry through that great
reform which has made the house of
