of a personal character as pure as a woman I doubt not that he will make a great President St Geo Tucker Dem A Democrat of the Old School Judge James Flanagan of Winchester in a private letter he has written ue has some things to say about the Chicago platform and the nominees We take the liberty to quote from mm The Judge has uist returned to his home from a visit to Tennessee He savs I do not know the state of public sentiment here as to the Chicago platform and as to tho nominees of the convention Where I have been in Sumner and Maury counties the rank and tile of the Dsm ocratic party there wiil ardently support the platform and tho nominees the politicians will follow suit This is a peoples ticket and will if the signs do not fail be elected triumph antlv Mr Ilenry Watterson who is stay ing at Geneva Switzerland has allowed himself to be interviewed by a New Yprk Herald representative in which he says of tho ticket nominated at Chicago Personally it is an exceptional ticket Mr Bryan is a most worthy and woll oducated young man with a talent for what passes for oratory He is fervid sincere poor and honest Mr Sowall is a Democrat of long standing and cicdit In anawer to a question for his opinion of tho platform ho said Monstrous It not only means national repudiation and spoliation but is an open door to revolution If the leaders of this movemeut could come into power those of thom who havo any sense of accountability any conception of oiderly government would bo quickly set aside by tho wild ulumeuts behind Iu this way civil war as foreshadowed by tho Chicago out

came those that are there to day thoso that mean tragedy eoriousness and an entirely now life Stern unrelenting and almost fierce aro tho different expressions mingled in this new face There is nothing loft of tho boy orator of the Platte Tho man who has seen hi3 fate has corao and the now face aiits him Tho famous man was just starting out to faco tho mou and women over whom he wants to rule He sat in the galley and this is tho picture that was developed Compare it with tho old time portraits of tho nominee taken only a few weeks ago Years have beon added to the face but they aro not as timo counts thom Rather they aro tho years that aro added to a mans life when he is faced by such a crisis as that which came to William Jennings Bryan in tho ColUcum when ho lought a battle and
