The Democratic party has met in the national convention and nominated again Bryan for the Presidency. For Vice-President it has named Adlai Stevenson, who was Vice-President under Grover Cleveland from 1893 to 1897. The platform not only reiterates the platform of four years ago, on which the party went to defeat, but specifically picks oué the plank calling for the free and unlimited coinagéf silver at the ratio of 16 to one. The convention, howerer, sought to make the chief issue of the campaign so-called " anti-imperialism." Unpartisan observers believe that the Democratic cause is weaker this year than it was four years ago.
