Kansas City Daily Journal July T.
The following letter was sent to
the national convention of the re-
publican league at Denver in response
to an invitation TO be present:
My DEAR SIR:-Your invitation
comes at i moment when congress Ie-
quires the attention Of her mem bers.
l should be glad to accept it, for we
have entered a troubled time and
We need mutual counsel and support,
but whatever ! am 10 say can be said
only in writing.

ing bitterness or in1aming passions
We need all the powers of forbear-
ance and self-control. Let us give

give no credit to us
On the Edge OF Revolution.
All Europe and all America are in
trouble. Every one admits that the
world stands on the edge of revoiu
tion-soc al and political-but every
one shrinks from it. Neither north
nor south, cast nor west, neither CAPT
talist nor laborer wants to create
caste OF classes, or to spread misery,
oppression or violence. We all see
danger before us. We all want to
avoid it. Our only dispute is about
the path.
To those of us who have had chiefly
in mind the struggle between silver
and gold, this is the question that for
the moment presses hardest. The
single gold standard seems o us to be
working ruin and violence. If it's in
fluence is. TO continue for the future
at the ate of it's action during the
twenty years since the gold standard
took possession of the world, some
generation not very remote will see
in the broad continent of America
only half a dozen overgrown cities
keeping guard over a mass of capital
and lending 1t out to population of
dependent laborers on the mortgage of
their growing crops and handiwork.
Such sights have become common
enough in the worlds history. but
against it we all rebel Rich and poor
alike, republicans, democrats, Popu-
lists, labor, capital, railways, churches
and colleges-all alike, and all in good
faith, dread such a future as that
Nine-tenths of mankind are hostile
to the single gold standard. Our 20,
600, 600 people are unanimous against
it, Most of the great European coun-
tries and their governments are
against it. South America rejects it..
The whole of Asia knows only silver
and India. which contains five-sixths of
the subjects of the British crown, is
as hostile to it as ourselves. Yet the
