THE POPULISTS NAME
HON. THOS. E. WATSON
.CONVENTION NOMINATES GEORGIAN
FOR PRESIDENT.
Ncbaraska and Minnesota Delegations
Leave tho Hall?Samuel Wiliiams
for Vice President.
{For president ol' (he United States,
Thomas 10. Watson of Georgia; for
vice president of the United States,
Samuel Williams ol" Indiana.
The foregoing ticket was nominated
on .Friday liy I lie People's j)arty convention,
in session in St. Louis, after
two stormy sessions during which the
Nebraska and (ho Minnesota delegates
boiled because they could not
procure a postponement of the convention
until after the nominal ions
had been made in lite Democratic convention
so that the People's party
might, nominate William J. Brvan for
president if he were defeated at the
.Democratic, convention. The Nebraska
men fought desperately to the
last, and when .lay W. Forester of
(Albany, N. Y.. mounted the platform
to place Watson in nomination they
'withdrew, followed by the Minnesota
delegation, which consisted of one
anan, T. .J. Weighman. If Bryan is
nominated at Denver, the men who
walked out of the convention say that
they will support him to a man.
The downfall of Nebraska came
swiftly in the afternoon and into a
pit thtty themselves had dug the delegation
from Nebraska tambled. They
were filibustering against a nomination
for president when Joe A.
Parker of Louisville begged leave to
ask " a couple of questions" of Nebraska.
Parker desired to know 'whether
the Nebraskans were working for tire
nomination of Bryan. They said
they were not. lie then read from
.Bryan's paper a |>!anl< from the platform
of the Nebraska I'opnlist Stat J
convent ion endorsing Bryan, ami
wanted to know whether IheV stood
by it. 'fhe Nehraskans parried the
question but Barker insisted on a
categorical answer. The Nebraska
delegates finally admitted that they
Javored Bryan. From (hat instant
Bryan's cause in the convention was
lost.
Debate on llie proposal to postpone
the convent ion and the discussion of
the phraseology of the money plank
of the platform consumed the greatvr
part of the day. The discussion of
the money plank was long huj all the
oratory went for naught as the plank
recommended by the resolutions committee
was adopted.
Mr. Watson was not present 1ml
Mr. Williams returned thanks to tho
convention in a brief speech in which
he promised to do all things possible
for the success of the ticket.
At a meeting of the new national
committee das. B. Kerris of Jolict,
111., was elected chairman and day
\\ . Forest of Albany, N. Y.. was
chosen vice president.
The platform, after setting forth
that the governuieni has been controlled
so as to place the rights of
property above the rights of human'ly
and that linancial combinations
have everted 'no much power over
congress, ?ji\cs the position of ihe
partx on finance as follows;
Money Question.
I he issuing money i.- a function

delegated to corporation-, ,.i individuals.
fhe con -1 i i ut ion gives p, ronm<
s> aione the power to : n? mon.'V
an.l r. v dale the value lliereof. We
therefore demand thai all money
shall be issued b\ the government direct
to the people without Ihe intervention
of banks and b,> a full legal
tender lor all debts, public and private
and in quanlitcs to supply the
necessity of the country. We demand
that postal savings banks be instituted
for Ihe savings of the people."
Alien ownership of public lands is
opposed and lands now held by aliens
or by corporations which have violated
the conditions of their grants
should be restored to the public domain.
Government ownership of railroads
is urged on the ground that that policy
would prevent unjust discriminations;
also tnat in order to perfect
the postal service the government
should own and operate Ihe general
telegraph nn^.telephone systems an:l
P'VV-iue a parcels post.
" "As to thosta trusts and monopolies!
which nro. not. public utilities or natural
monopolies we demand that
those special privileges which they
/ now enjoy and which alone enable
them to exist should be immediately
withdrawn. Corporations being the
creatures of government should ha
subjected to such governmental regulation
and control as will adequately
protect lire public. We. demand tho
taxation of monopolistic privileges
while they remain in private ham
to the extent of (he valuo of the pri
ilege granted.
AVe demand tiial congress slit
| enact a general law uniformly rcg
luting the powers and duties of all i
corpora ted companies doing intc
state business.
"As a aneans of placing all pu
lie questions directly under the coi
jtrol of the people, we demand th
legal provision be made under whi<
the people may exercise the initiate
and referendum and proportiona
representation and direct vote for r
public officers with the right of r
call.
"We believe in the right of tho.<

"wealth belongs to him who creals
it and every dollar taken from labc

and opposes gambling in futures.
On the subject of injunctions th
platform says:
