SHIVELY’S VOTE.
Indiai-apolis, Ind., June 25.—At the In-
diana state Democratic convention yes-
terday, Ithie Hon. B. F. Shively of St.
Joseph county, who w-as nominated for
governor, received 1646 votes out of a
total of 1747, -ex-Congr-esinian Cooper, the
candidate of ihe sound money element, re-
ceived the remaining 101 votes.
THE WEST FOR McKINLEY.
'Canton, O., June 25.—Gov. McKinley
is daily receiving 'aissuruniceis from Colo-
rado and other western -state's' of the
hearty support of the people, land a-s-sur-
anceis that there is no disaffection in that
territory on account of the financial
plank.
NEW MEXICO POPULISTS.
Albuquerque, N. M., June 25.—The
Poipulist territorial convention elected the
following delegates to the national, con-
vention: M. P. Stamm, Thomas F.
Kelaher, Albuquerque; N. M.; N. M. Mil-
ligan, T. B. .Mills, Las- Vegas; Peter
Mackie, Santa F-e; W. A. Robinson, Lin-
coln. Alternates: W. W. McClellan, W.
-S. Skinner, Albuquerque; Juan Jos-e Her-
rera, M. H. Morris, Las Vegas; P. B.
(Continued on Third Page.)
If there is any political fusion in Texas
this year, it is most apt to be between the
advocates of sound money in opposition
•to free silver. Such a fusion would be
entirely logical, -and represent a principle
rather than a scramble for office.
There is a prospect of a split in the A.
P. A. parly, one faction favoring and the
other opposing the election of McKinley.
A split on -any other than the money issue
is not now in order.

SUNDAY TRIBUNE.
Each purchaser of The Sunday Tribune
will receive a copy of the Saturday even-
ing edition.
Nothing from the Saturday evening edi-
il°n is repeated in the Sunday edition.
Hence Sunday purchasers, who are not
Tegular readers, would miss much inter-
esting news, For their benefit the Satur-
day evening edition is inserted.
Regular readers receive both papers and
so do not need to have Saturday evening’s
news repeated.
AVi.ll the bosses be able to arrange the
senatorial matter as amicably -and har-
moniously as they did -the delegate alt
large business by electing all the aspir-
ants? Only two senators from Texas are
entitled to seats in the senate chamber,
of course, but they might -take time about,
just as.-the “big eight” to Chicago must
do.
NEW YORK PLATFORM.
Saratoga, N. Y., June 25—The Demo-
cratic convenition yesterday afternoon

form and electing D. IB. Hill, Edward
Murphy, -Ros-well P. Flower and Frederic
R. Coudert delegates at large to Chi-
cago. The platform .provides:

Gladness Comes
I X. 7ith a better understanding’ of the
. » » transient nature of the many phys-
ical ills which vanish before proper ef-
forts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts—
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis-
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative. Syrup of Figs, prompt-
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
ficial effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep-
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa-
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
Used and gives most general satisfaction.

McKINLEY
Russell of Massaclniseiffs Adds His Ap-
plause to Others.
C-an-ton, O., June 25.—Gov. McKinley’s
congratulations tod-ay included one from
Theoidore Roosevelt, as follows:
“My Dear Mr. President to Be: As a
rule I do- not like to try prophecy, but I
think it -s-afe to -s'ay New York will give
yon the largest majoitit-y by far that shle
has ever given a presidential candidate'.”
Ex-Congnesisman John E. Russel (Dem.)
of Mlais-sachusetts says: “No man of all
your admiring and loving supporters more
cordially and disiiiteres-tedly congratu-
lates you and the country than I do. I
am your sincere political opponent, but
no less your cordial and sincere friend.”
, ExrSecretla-ry -of the Interior Joh'n W.
Noble writes: “Dear Major: Please ac-
cept. my congra'tailations -and my hope that
you may be elected president. If we m'ay
redeem Missouri at the same -time it will
be additional c-atise for thanks and praise.
The party lilaS justice -wfth it and is
thrice armed.” ' ? ~
INDIANA FOR SILVER.
Indianapolis, Ind,, June 25.—The In-
diana D-emocrats adopted a free silver
platform, instructed -for Matthews and
-sent Daniel W. V-borhees, 'David Turpie
and James McCabe delegates -at large to
Chicago.
Congressman- Bynum, after much dif-
ficulty, made a -spefech' against the. free
silver plank. The resolution, Mr. By-
num said, -was adopted by -the last na-
tiona-1 convent ion by an almos t una-ni-
•mous. vote. An-amendment was offered
to that resolution in the convention to in-
sert the ‘word “free’ before “coinage” of
both gold -and silver. This last amend-
ment, Mr. Bynum ^id, was over'whelm-
in-g-ly defeated-. The 'Subsequent action of
that convention, he continued, in nomi-
nating Grover Gilev-eland, with his well
known views, removed all -doubts as to
the platform. Indiana, with the full
knowledge- of the position of Mr. 'Cleve-
land, indorsed him as a candidate. If
this -was Democracy four years- ago, if
under this banner, inscribed with this
principle, in the hands of a man who- was
never known to capitulate or ask for
terms or cease to wage warfare till vic-
tory was won, we won the -greatest politi-
cal triumphs in 1892, why should -we -turn
our backs upon that resolution now ?
TELLER’S BOOM.
Denver, Colo., June '25.—(Friends of
Senator Henry M. Teller, who have 'been
advocating his candidacy on the silver
ticket for the presidency, are feeling very
much encouraged by the reception which
the boom started in -St. Louis immediately
after the bolt of the western delegates
has had -in the west and south.
It is announced that Teller’s name w-ill
positively be presented to the Chicago
convent-ion, and it is hoped that the
strength he will show on the initial ballot
wiil-1 stampede -the 'Convention to him.
Teller’s nomination' -will come from the
south, where it is claimed he is particu-
larly strong, not only on account of his
record as a silver leader, but also because
of -his vote against .the force bill -and his
-well known -opposiition to the more radical
actions of .the Republican party on the
tariff question.
■Colorado will offer no resolutions and
its delegates will not be particularly con-
spicuous in the convention hall, but it is
proposed -to send -from this state a delega-
tion of citizens which is exipect-ed to at-
tract attention. It is asserted that from
300 to '500 men, includ-ing many of the
wea'ltihiest and best known business men
of the state, with a mammoth brass band
and the famous Leadvill-e drum coips,
wil'l be in Chicago to .shout for free silver
and Henry M. Teller for president. The
friends of Mr. Teller say the indorsement
of the -Populist party is assured for him
-if he is nominated at Chicago.

gation announce that they will bolt the
unit rule imposed upon the delegates by
the stateconvention wh-en-they vote on 'the
platform in Chicago. They argue that
if the national convention does not in-
sist upon the unit rule they will not be
bound by the action of the 'state convan.-
tion,. and point to the fact that the con-
vention failed to' respect the unit rule
made by some -of the counties. Having'set
the example, the majority c-annot object
it ubs -action receives similar treatment in
■the larger convention. The action of the
silver men will take Wisconsin out of the
column of solid gold states ait Chicago.
ttA.V.6, delegates at large to Chicago are
William F. Vilas, E. S. Bragg, J. G.

money. The free silver delegates- are

farm reaffirms the last national platform,

A correspondent asks The Tribune
what is the unit of value? In a general
way it might be said that -labor is the unit
of value, but no definition could be given
u Inch might not be open to controversy.
If he means unit of -currenoy or monetary
uh-it, the Century d-ictionary says: “In
■the United States this is the gold dollar,
having a .standard 'weight of 25.8 grains.
The unit is the pound in the British em-
pire, the franc in France, the mark in
Germany.” Webster merely defines the
monetary unit as “-the dollar in the
United States,” without any distinction
as to the metal comprising the coin.
The pledge contained in the repeal of the
S-herman law, which repeal wais pasised
by a Democratic congress and approved
'by a Demo-cratic president, should be
faithfully Carried out, wherein it was de-
clared -that the efforts' of the government
should be steadily directed to the estab-
lishment of such a safe system of bimetal-
lism as will maint-aiin at all times the
equal power o-f every dollar coined or
issued by the United 'States in the market
and in payment of debts. We believe
that .such bimetaiiSsm, to 'which the na-
tion is solemnly pledged, can only be se-
cured and- permanently maintained
through the concurrent action of -the
leading nations of the world. Neither this
country nor any other country i^eable to
maintain it al-one, and it 'would be folly to
attempt it. Being so convinced, we are
opposed to the free and unlimited coinage
of silver in the absence of co-oper-ation
of other great nations. We dec-fare our
belief that any attempt on the part of the
United .S tates alone to enter upon the ex-
periment of free -silver coin-age -would not
only prove disastrous to our finances, but
would retard or entirely prevent the es-
tablishment of international bimetallism.
Until intema-ti-on'al. co-operation, by
which bimetallism can be secured'—to
wliich end all our efforts as a -government
and as a people should be in good faith
directed—we favor the rigid mainten-
ance oif the present gold standard a» es-
sential to the preservation of our national
credit, -the redemption of our public
pledges and the keeping Inviolate of our
country’s honor. We insist that all our
paper and silver currency shall be kept
absolutely at a parity with gold.
2. The Democratic party has even been
and .still is the bard money party, and it
will preserve that record. lit is opposed
to-legal tender paper money a.s a part of
our permanent financial system, and it
refuses to sanction any paper currency
un-con-verti-ble lint-o coin. The Uni ted States
notes .and -treasury notes, being in fact
debts of the government, should be paid
off, retired and canceled. This .should
and must be done in such a manner as to
cause no contraction of the circulating
money of the country. So long as they
exist, however, and are permitted to cir-
culate as. money, they should be redeem-
able at all times upon demand in the
standard money of the country. The
Democratic party is pledged to the reso-
lute maintenance of the public credit at
a'll times and under all circum'srtjances. It
is, therefore, opposed to the repeal of any
existing statute which- enables the secre-
tary of -the treasury by the issue of bonds
or otherwise, to provide an adequate fund
for the redemption in gold of our paper
obligations whenever neces-siary.
3. AAr-e reiterate our adherence to the
principle of a tariff for revenue only. We
are opposed to- ■government partnership
with protected monopolies, and we deem
that import duties, like other taxes,
should be impartially laid and^their fan-
postion limited to the necessities of the
government economically administered.
Federal taxation -should not be imposed
to 'benefit individual .interests at -the ex-
pense of the general 'welfare. We repu-
diate the doctrine that it is the province
of the government, by the exercise or
abuse of the power of taxation, to build
up one man’s business at t'he expense of
another’s or to impose burdens upon one
class of citizens for the benefit o-f other
classes, and we insist that “no public
taxation except for public purposes” is
the true theory upon which our system of
government is based (apd upon which it
should be honestly and impartially ad-
ministered. Upon this principle of reve-
nue reform the Democratic party takes
no step -backward. AA7e indorse the ■admin-
istration of President Gleveland. and par-
ticularly commend him for bis de-

BLAND THE MAN.
The Texas free silver party at Austin
-declared its 'preferen'ee for “(Silver Dick”
Bland as a presidential n'aminee, and that
distinguished white metall'ist will e-n-ter
the Chicago 00,aven bion with the indorse-
ment o-f Texas silver Democracy as a
lever and support.
If any respect for the tear stained can-
didature o,f 'the gentleman from Colorado,
whose dramatic exit from .the -St. Louis
■oonventio'n was (intended to be so impressr
ive and overpowering, was felt at Austin
the fact was not made manifest.
The South Carolina gentleman with the
pitchfork, who journeyed all the way to
Texas at the invitation of a -part of the
'Dudley committee, to point the way for
Democrats to rehabilitate -silver, had no
voice raised in the Austin convention in
behaif of his presidential aspirations. No
other claims than those of Mr. Hogg and
Mr. Bland (were -considered, and Mr.
Hogg’s -candidacy never got beyond the
suggestive -stage, not even reaching the
dignity of a “second.” Clearly, the con-
vention was for Bland, and properly so.
Mr. Bland is the -author o.f the standard
silver dollar, the original -free coinage ad-
vocate and par excellence bimetall'is't of
several year's experience. He is suffi-
' cien-tly radical to suit the most violent ex-
tremists -and the moss -on his' back is said
to -be o-f a -leiugt-h -tq -challenge the admira-
tion of the most “conservative.”
As the standard bearer of the free sil-
verites Mr. Bland -can hardly fail to a-t-
tract the full support of his party, and if
-he does not prove to be a vigorous and
effective -compaigner his past perform-
ance w-ill be belied. With Goiv. Hogg as
his running mate the ticket would be well
nigh invincible in- Texas, and it might
possibly -carry Missouri, -also. Bland and
Hoi»g, free silver and lights, ‘livers and
lungs 'W’ould he a great rallying cry for
the white metallists and would' give spice
to the presidential -campaign of 1896.

Washington, D. G., June 25.—Senator
Peffer leaves today for home. Before
starting he said, 'concerning the Populist
attitude on -the -presid'enibial question:
“The recent pronunciamen-to of Popu-
list gentlemen at St. Louis urging the
D-emo-cratc party to nominate Mr. Teller
was -in my -opinion an im-pertinence, and
it was treacherous so far -as it 'attempted
to speak for the Populist party as- a
'whole. These gentlemen spoke without
authority from the Populist party, and I
do not believe the party will sustain
them. They had not conferred with the
party -and had been given no commission
to speak for it. Personally I have -a ihigh
(regard for Mr. Teller, hut I have no idea
that the old- party spirit of the Demo-
cratic organization will be so' far re-
formed -as- to bring -about his nomination,
and in any -event I don’t think existing
■conditions warrant a Po-pulist indorse-
ment of the Democratic presidential tick-
et, even though the nominee is for free
silver and the -platform contains a positive
free silver de-caration. I regard the in-
tegrity and perpetuity -of the Populist
party as -essential to carrying out the
plans of reform we have espoused. The
money question is but one of these. While
the Democratic onvention doubtless will
be for free silver, yet it will not be ex-
pressive -of those other great questions of
land tenure -and labor which the Populist
party regard as vital. I had hoped there
might be some -amalgamation of Demo-
crats, -Populists, silver men and all others
in a ne w declaration of -principles, -and, if
need be, a new name, but the -time for
•that has gone by and all that remains is
■for the Populist party to maintain its in-
tegrity by nominating its own Candida-tes
on its own platform.
“Concerning Populist candidates, I per-
sonally favor the-nomination of Gov. Hol-
combe of Nebraska for the first place on
the ticket, and I had considered Nugent
of Texas as the strongest -man for tie
second place up to the time of bis death.
Under the. circumstances, Tom Watson
of Georgia is probably -the most available
-man. 'Tjiis combines the west and south,
the two -sections to -which we look for re-
sults.”

BIMETALLISM.
The Kan's-as Chy igitar takes Mr. Teller
to- -taisk far the deceptions of his speech
before tine committoe on plaltfoirm at St.
Louis, v herein he said -tha t “every politi-
cal economist of Europe, with five or -six
exceptions, is a pronounced and open ad-
vocate of bimetallism.”
The deception complained of is the fail-
ure of Mr. Teller to■ state Ihlait every one
of those European bimetallists looks with
disapproval on the movement in this
country to attempt the’ impossible task
of testering the value of silver without
the aid of any other country. The Star
says: “Every one of them looks upon the
silver p-ariy of America, as a monbme‘t.a.l-
li’c party attempting -to substitute the sin-
gle silver standard of Mexico- for the sin-
gle gold s-tand'ard now in use, and ais an
obstacle instead ot an aid to the i'esto-ra-
ti-on of -the only sort of genuine bimetal-
lism which is possible, namely, bimetal-
lism by inteirn'ational agreement.”
It is true, a-s Mr. Teller claimed, that
the leading economists o-f Europe are in
favor of bimetallism, and it is equally
