Would Legalize Theft.

In his speech last night in response to
the formal notification of his nomination
to the Presidency by the Chicago con-
vention William Jennings Bryan was
dlsappointing-to his adherents and sup
porters who had expected and crayed an
impassioned outburst of "boy o~ratory,"
and to his critics, who had anticipated
nothing but swords, words" and oratori-
cal superficialities. The nominee had
apparently taken the advice Of older
n wiser heads, and as a result he con-
fined himself almost strictly to an argu-
mentative presentation of the free coin
age question from the standpoint of his
party-whatever that is. To this extent
he disarmed his critics-but no further.
There is absolutely nothing new, moth
ing spacious, nothing forcible in ali the
twelve thousand or more words in which
the Chicago nominee has seen fit to
clothe his side of the case. Stripped of
verbiage his argument is simply a de-
tense of the proposition to nullify the
law of supply and demand by setting an
arbitrary price upon silver bullion
through Legislation by Congress. "This,"
says Mr.. Bryan, "is in keeping with
natural laws-not in defiance of them.n
Was ever a deliberate statement more
preposterously false? The whole span of
history from the beginning of the world
Ices not furnish one solitary instance
of the creation of value by legislation.
On the contrary, every attempt at this
form of legislation has proved a signal
failure. The proposition of the Chicago
platform, defended by Bryan, is to fly in
the face of all natural laws and of all
precedent and thus to fix q market price
for silver by artificial law, or legislation.
The thing is as impossible as to move
the planets by act of Congress or Parlia-
ment. "Free coinage" says Bryan, would
raise the bullion price of silver to the
face value of the dollar" 1t would not,
because no form Of legislation can annul
natural law. But ven if it would, the
proposition reeks with rank dishonesty.
1t is a scheme to steal under the cover
of law.
If the people are prepared to support
Mr.. Bryan on this proposition, they are
equally prepared to legalize theft. His
whole argument must stand or fall on
this one proposition-to raise the price
of a commodity by law.
The intelligence and the patriotism of
the country will not accept the Bryan
dogma. They will fight it to the bitter
end, and overthrow and humiliate every
supporter of the proposed fraud.-Morn-
ing Advertiser, Aug. 10.

Pittsburg, Aug. 19.-The fa ctories of
the Plate Glass Pool, known as the
Pittsburg Glass company have been
closed. They are located in Butler,
Ford City, Creighton, Charleroi, and
Irwin, in Western Pennsylvania; Ko.
komo, Alexandria, and Elwood, in
Indiana, and Crystal City Mo. Abner
U. Hazard, secretary of the company,
says:
1--WE have been forced to close our
factories on account of this free silver
agitation. We employ over 5000 hands
directly and many workmen will be
affected indirectly. Immediately after
the declaration of the Chicago con
veution for free silver our business
began to go down hill, especiallyin the
Southern and Western markets, until
about mi week ago we found that there
were virtually no orders coming from
these sections. The little business we
continued doing came from the Eastern
States, north of the Potomac River.
Inquiries we made of u Southern
and Western agents ELECTED the uniform
reply that business men in these sec
tions were afraid to do anything owing
to the free silver agitation, that con.
tracts for building were being annuled
and that there was absolutely no con.
fidence as to the future. We were told
by our agents that no business need be
expected in the Southern and Western
markets until the election and perhaps
non after that, If Bryan were elected.
as we found ourselves with 5000, 900
feet of plate glass in stock, we closed
down our factories last Saturday. At
the present rate Of plate glass consump.
ton, our stock will last six months, and
the shutdown will last almost as long,
unless business conditions better ma
terially."
