CHANGE IN THE DEMO-
CRATIC PARTY SINCE 1896.
When it is recalled how western
Democrats denounced Tammany
"lour years ago, it may seem passing
s"Ka«ge to some that western Demo-
crats today should be licking Tam-
many's paws. Tammany today is
still Tammany—the most completely
depraved political organization in
America. The Hill Democracy of
the empire state may be bad, but it
is purity itself when compared with
the New York City and Brooklyn
machine that is lubricated and tun
wholly on the spoils system. The
fact that Tammany would seem to
be for Bryan this year should not
be taken without salt by western
Democrats. Tammany Hall De
mocracy's interest lie in New York
City and Brooklyn and it has been
demonstrated, on many former
Occasions, that Tammany don't
care much how the rest of the
country goes politically so New
York City and Brooklyn goes Tain
manyward. We think, that to
western Democrats, the present at
titude of Tammany is such as to
arouse a suspicion that Tammany
was playing the part of a Judas to
the Democratic party. We think a
charge of Hannaism against Tam
many could be much nearer proven
than many such charges fusionists
and Bryan Democrats are making
against the supporters of tbe Barker
and Donnelly ticket. In attempt-
ing to swallow and disorganize the
People's party, the Democratic
party has inserted a wedge that is
dividing it assunder and Bryan is
pounding that wedge like a skilled
rail splitter, and the only hope now
for the future success of the Demo
cralic party is that the wedge will
bounce out at Kansas City. If it
was not for the hastening of the day
when a party of the people
would win in this country, we would
wish the wedge would not bounce
out at Kansas City. Divided the
Democratic party cannot win a na-
tional election with the Republican
party united as it is today. In 1 _
had Bryan Democracy discarded
Sewall and put up Bryan and Wat
son electors, we doubt very much
if McKinley would have won, and
most certainly would not have won
in this campaign, but Mr. Bryan's
plea now to Democracy lo treat
the People's party and silver Re
publicans fairly, comes very much
like the remark the Irishman made
to the young chicken when he heard
it chirp as it slipped down his
throat—"Sorry, my young friend,
but you spake too late." A party
that thinks to win in this campaign
by taking an ultra stand against the
fortign policy of McKinley in deal-
ing with Cuba, Puerto Rico and the
Philippines does not know how to
gage the temper of the American
people. A conservative stand against
President McKinley's foreign policy
would doubtless meet with much
favor, but an ultra stand would only
arouse resentment to the degree of
open hostility. The American

J. R JACOBS WON.
Oklahoma sent two sets of dele
gates to the Kansas City conven
tion. One set of delegates was
headed by J. R. Jacobs of Shawnee
and the other by Jasper Sipes of
Oklahoma City. The two delega-
tions went to the convention for
scalps) but on reaching Kansas
City the Sipes men were willing to
compromise by accepting a one-
half vote of the delegation; but
there was not even a little bit of
compromise in the Jacobs men
The battle was fought out to the
bitter end before the subcommittee
of the national committee, and the
Jacobs men won by a unanimous
vote and Jacobs will be national
committeeman front Oklahoma.
I'he Jacobs men were what are
termed the anti fusion Democrats
in the territory; the Sipes men were
any old thing to win the offices.
L. P. Ross was a very important
factor in winning the fight for his
friend Jacobs, and had to go against
his home delegation to do it. The
majority of the delegates from
Cleveland county were Sipes men.
There is some talk of Ross for can-
didate for delegate to Congress ami
Jacobs' victory at Kansas City may
have the effect of bringing him into
the race, and if the Jacobs men get
behind him he will be a formidable
candidate in the convention. W.
M. Newell was thinking seriously
of entering the race for the nomina-
tion for councilman; but his down-
fall at Kansas City may cause him
to reconsider and keep out of the
contest for the nomination. With
Ross after his scalp in this county
and Jacobs after it in Pott county,
he would more than likely be de
feated in the convention and
Newell don't like defeat.
ill come to a bloodless and sudden
end. Otherwise, the "King's
guard" and the "armed posse" are
already at your door, charged with
the suppression of liberty, the
murder of the helpless, and the
execution of the iron behests of
trusts and syndicates.—Word and
Works.
Pott county Pops no longer recog
nize W. H. French as Territorial
Chairman of the Peoples Party. At
a meeting held in Tecumseh last
Saturday without a jiissenting voice
they decided to recognize T N. Clark
of Oklahoma City as territorial
chairman. They arranged for an-
other meeting of the county central
committee on July 28th, to decide
on time, place and manner of put
ting a county ticket in the field. It
is quite likely that they will put a
ticket in the field by the primary
method of making nominations. In
that county, as in all other counties
in this territory, save in Cleveland
and Greer counties, the People's
party has suffered severely from the
fusion craze that spread over this
country in 1896, and many of the
People's party workers have be-
come discouraged ; but they are
beginning to take on fresh courage
again as they see the fusion senti-
ment die, and with fusion slain
Pottawatomie county will again
take her rank in the People's party
column in this territory.
CROKER TO HILL.
"The fact is that Mr. Bryan does
not want you upon the platform
committee. He wants nothing to
do with you. You are a discredited
politician. You are a sullter. Now,
you try to foist yourself upon Mr.
Bryan. Having begged Bryan in
vain, you come here and beg."
HILL TO CROKER.
"When it comes to harming Mr.
Bryan, that man who does harm is
well known to the country. Your
transparent attitude, sir, is plain to
all. The measure of your sincerity
is an open book."

The volume of money in circula-
tion was never so great, per capita,
as it is today.—Republican National
Platform.
The above is the key that has
unlocked the door of prosperity and
it is the immediate cause of the
boasted prosperity that Republi-
cans love, to dote on so much at
the present time. It is the key that
the People's party has prescribed
for the people to use if they wanted
prosperity in this country—increase
the volume of money in circulation
and you will enhance the price of j
commodities and make times better
The increasing of the
money in circulation by the present
administration would have resulted
in great permanent good to the
country had it not been for the
manner in which they increased it.

A Democratic Congress, after
defeating fifteen free and unlimited
coinage of silver bills, stepped
right into a national campaign of
16 to 1. In view of its past record
for defeating measures in Congress j
that it champions on the stump, can
you figure out just about how many
anti trust bills a Democratic Con-|
gress would have to defeat before it
would consent to pass an anti trust
measure ? In the late Congress a
bill was pending to amend the Con-
stitution so as to enable Congress to
legislate against the trusts, but the
Bryan fellows in Congress, save
five, all voted to kill the measure.
A Democrat on the stump, as a rule,
suffers a great change in his views
on public questions when he enters
congressional halls.
