being nearly unanimous. A few mid­
dle-road men held out against it, but it
availed nothing.
When it came to endorsing Sewall for
vice president however, there was a
general kick, and Tom Watson, of Geor­
gia received the nomination. The ob­
jections to Sewall are that he is a bank­
er, a millionaire, and lias a monopoly of
ship building in the east—in fact that
he is entirely in sympathy with plutoc­
racy, and a promoter of trusts, all of
which objections seem well grounded.
It is reported that Bryan will not ac­
cept the populist nomination since the
populists did not endorse Sewall, though
There was a large crowd here Satur­
day to witness the balloon ascension,
mure people being present than at the
4th of July celebration, and perhaps
more than were ever present at one time
in Tillamook oil any previous occasion
The weather was line, though some­
what cloudy, an«! the only difficulty was
that the wind was rather strong, so the
ascension came off late in the evening.
Mr. Geo. Weston, who made the as­
cension, did everything that lie prom­
ised and nobody was of the opinion lie
was a fakir after the ascension.
He
went up about 2000 feet, hanging to the
bar by his hands, without the aid of
it is thought the matter will be patched
up by the national committees of the
democrats and populists.
Sewall may be withdrawn, or the elec­
toral vote may be divided by states ac­
cording to which are strongest, demo­
crats or populists, with the understand­
ing that all the electoral votes go to the
same man after election.
There is h I so some understanding
about dividing the spoils in case of suc­
cess—it being quite apparent that Teller
will be made secretary of (lie treasury
in case the combination wins.
The silver convention, composed
mostly of republicans, which met about
the same time endorsed Bryan.
A It hough t here are a few deflections,
the combination seems to be very for­
midable, and may make a very close
contest unless the two national commit­
tees get to quarreling over the spoils.
It seems however that those demo­
crats and populi«ts who have been talk­
ing free silver so loud should be capable
of coming to a fair understanding if
they are sincere, ami they surely need
not expect much assistance of freesilvei I
republicans unless they do.
If they
1 don’t pull together in this instance, they
I should ever after liobl their peace.
The populists are chumps if they let
the democrats «wallow them up entirely
and they surely will not let the demo-
I erats name all the candidates, take all
the «poils, and completely knock out the
populist organization.
The populist«
did right in substituting Watson for
Sewall and making other demands.

It seems that both the democrat and

are men of no particular note or ability,

of money to put in the banks, the banks
would not hesitate to loan it out. How
can they loan money when they haven’t
