I am familiar'with work of the national committee for'the pant JB years, and I defy anyone to cite on instance In which prejudice entered Into ot a contest. The contests are'sottled, so far as the committee. Is absolutely on the of the case; the only, consideration being- the regularity or IrreRUlartty ot the proceeding? which namo'a the delegation.

"What do you found that belief upon?" tiie "Faith in human lu itl the good oC ATiicrlcans ot the standing that ii're mode- to national contentions.

Without cuuilyv.ing 1 the sit- will say these aJ- -victories have been made such Jjy-'tiie 'newspapers.

Neither have I seen nny delegate quoted dcter- mincd to.bolt in case the platform or candidates' do not suit him, lind both -the republican und democratic would declare for sound'money so unequivocally that that''''issue would be practically eliminated from the campaign.

It does not seem so sure now that the Louis convention will not make some recognition of bimetallism as a distinct possibility which will be the nature of a Rtr'addle. No one has heard of any talk of a bolt from the St. Louis convention, and the the cnse with the Chicago 'convention.
