Special to the ICxDress.

Indianapolis, (Sept. 7.—Governor Mattheiwts (does not .propose that any Detmoorairs shall 'dodlge 'the silver issue thi.s year. Same of the strongest leaders off the In-d'itana Democracy imade a hard fight for sound 'money 'before the stale convention 'and since then have been taking their time about thinking 'it over Among the»m are .(Hon. A. G. Smith, exatt'orney general Hon. John W. Kern, State seila tor, -and -H'on. John E. McCullougb, ex-'mei.T.toer of the legislature. A ifttvv (days ago, as the s'tory goes, the governqir •oaHed on Chairman Ho't, of the state 'oommiittee, and demanded to .know why these imen were not participating in the iciaimipali'gm. Mr. Holt did not know anid the tooraferen-ce ended: thus unsatisfactorily.

The governor then called John Roehford, (dhafirman o(f 't'he Po poor a tic county committee, -to his office and .wanted to know whiaK: ISI.ni'th., Kann and MtaGu1.lough .'were doing in the campaign. Mr. Rochiford haid- not .heard of 'them doing anything. The governor then stated' that 'it wlas Itl/me all Ithese men who (had been identified w-Jth the gold side of the ftght were showing their co !ors. Mr. RoidMoUd sai'd 'that 'he had verbal £lssuramoes from each that he would support the ticket as 'he also had froim Mr. W. R. 'Myers, ex-secretary of state,who haid also paifji'cOpated conspicuously in the gold side of 't'he flight to-eifore the convention. 'VMIyens 'its all rliigh't," said the governor. "He appeared on the same platforms with 'me and talked at the raiiiifiicait'iom meetinig." But the governor was not satisfied with any ward oif mouith from iSimith-, Kern and IMIcOuJlough. He wanted to 'hear them talk out loud and in pulblic beifore he wouidi be assured of their loyalty. He did not think 'that they were .needed .particularly in ithe oamipa'lgn as there was plenty oif others Uo make speeches and carry on the fligh't if or sii.lv eir, tout these were men who had (been honored tby the party .'in- the paist and all loyal silver men•-wanted 'to knaw where they siocd in the 'filgh't as a matter for future relftftence.

As a result of the iconlffiren.ee Mr. -R'O'Ohiford has not'ilfi&d Messrs. Smith, Ker.n and 'MtaCullough that he expects to have a pmblic imeating addressed by the'm In this city iwi'thin the next couple of weeks and desires to know iLf they wtilil he prepared to apeak on that occaeion. The date If or tihe meeting has not ibeen set and Mr. Rochford does not yet know whether the gentlemen named have time ito devote to the preparation of speeches.

BRYAN'S HOME CITY.

A Lincoln Resident Sitys the Town Will Go Heavily for AIcKiiiley.

Special The ExDress.

Indianapolis, Sept. 7.—A story ,ha3 'been in circulation here to .the effeot that the members of Bryan's church dn Lincoln are largely opposed to him and an inquiry upon (this subject was made of one of the best known business men of Lincoln. His reply indicates tha-On Lincoln people have mot been in any wise taken off their feet by the sudden elevation of the young 'lawyer. He says: "I have had an acquaintance of seventeen years standing w.ith the people of Lincoln and feel that I know the personnel of the membership of the •Presbyterian. Church of the city wit'h which Mr. Bryan affiliated. I personally know a large number of the members of the church, including many sound imoney Democrats, who could not be •induced by any possible means to vote for Bryan. The church has in its membership some of the most prominent and active sound money (Democrats in the state. Of course there may he, and iprobably are, a number of Democrats in the church who will vote for Bryan. A very large majority of the church people her® ore for McKinley. This would especially apply to Bryan's church, In my judgment. '"Ail'l this mtece.llaneus talk you hear about Bryan sweeping this county, congressional district and state away from the Republican column Is simple rot, and there Is nothing in It. You can .put this state down, particularly Bryan's home city, county and congressional district as going the way they always have gone, and with a strong probability of doing a little better than they have done before. There is no liveHi er political towns in the United States •than Lincoln, and 4t is thoroughly Republican. You see countless numbers of McKinley buttons and photographs alt over the towai, probably three to •where you see one of Bryan, and every Eastern man that comes (here 1s thoroughly impressed with the enthusiasm displayed for the (Republican ticket this fall. Lincoln 4® a. city of colleges, schools and churches, and if there are any people in the country that can be depended on ito vote the Republican picket this fall they are those who have bra-ins enough to study and understand this money question. The opposition we meet with 4S largely among those who are unable to read or too prejudiced -to listen to argument."
