A SAFE NAN.

In reading the speeches OF the Demo-
cratic Presidential candidate ii is i'm
possible not to be struck with the con-
trast between his attitude toward OPP
moments and that Of the latter towards
him. In Mr.. Brysn's Kansas City
speech he said
at is not q campaign in which we use
bitter words. / have every respect for
the opinion Of those who differ from Us.
There are men, there are great men,
there are good men. who do not agree to
the restoration OF silver. Let us not
speak Of them in terms Of ~denuncistion. ="
Not only has Mr.. Bryan refrained from
the slightest indulgence in abuse or de-
nunciation, but he has placed his CAM
paigu on the high ground Of reason and
patriotism. He has not attacked the
motives Of his opponents nor appealed to
thoughtless prejudice. Nor has he taken
the tone of partisan TRADE. but, on the
contrary. in many speeches has contented
himself with urging the people to study
the leading Issue of the campaign and
vote according to intelligent conviction.
The appeal to reason, intelligence and
patriotism, says the st. Louis Republic,
is not made by leaders who wish to TO
ment revolution and disorder. Anar.
chists do not urge charity towards oppo.
nents. The enemies of society and or
derby government do not commend ra-
tionsl Judgment on political issues.
1t is impossible to read the u%tterances
of William J. Bryan and to study his
conduct and character without q pro-
found belief in the t~horoughness Of his
knowledge Of the science of government.
the honesty of his purposes and his earn.
est patriotism. He is a young man who
can be trusted.

The Tribune had q cali yesterday from
q Wall street broker and banker. who is
a silverite through and through. lie SAID
in explanation that the crash oil lS90
caused him to make q thorough study OF
the Question. and bis conclusionwss ire
sissible that there is no safety for the
country without silver rehabilitation.
He was asked the question, "How much
has the Stock Exchange of New York
made in the last five years." His an
swer wss, "Wby. the stock Exchange
as q rule does not deal in anything legit-
innate. They deal in cyclones, in earth
quskes, in ~droughts and floods; they
deal in the deaths Of kings and million
aires; their capital is the worlds mistor-
tunes" What he meant was that they
stood all the time ready to take adyan-
tage Of any accident or calamity through
which to bull or bear stocks. The sud
den and unexpected death OF q man like
Jaw Could would be a little harvest to
them. They would Immediately go to
the market and sell short on all the secu'
rites in which Gould might be inter
ested, knowing that within three days
the people would come to their senses
and realize that when one man falls out
of the ranks there is always another man
to take his place. So when a tornado
strikes a city like the last one that struck
st. Louis, that is Q signal to them that
any securities in which that city is inter.
ested, must be jumped upon, and. that

thousand people were killed. there were

little property was destroyed, the wound
OF it would be healed and the scar brush.
ed away before the next payment of in.
terest came due. And those will be the
very men who will begin to bull silver in
case of Mr.. Bryan's election. In other
words, their principle is, not to get left.
When they can work upon the fears, or
the ignorance, or the want of quick sa-
gscity on the part of the people, they
pray for . main chance all the time, and
how they succeed can be judged by an
other statement Of this same gentleman
that within sight almost Of his Office on

tion cause a panic to convulse this coun
