John M. Wright, Former Citizen
of this place, Bolts.
The Following is an Article Written by
him to the Editor OF the San
Francisco Examiner.

Sir:-On recent occasion | said:
"When we reflect that in the domain OF
diplomacy the simple writing OF a let
ter by an American president TO all
American congress resulted in the m-
mediate surrender OF cherished and
Wanted policy Ly the proudcst and
most aggressive nation on earth, it is
no longer difficult to believe that in the
world OF finance the power OF this ma tion
is equally understood and feared. The
United States and not England should
De and will he the worlds arbiler in
finance and in business az we'll as in
war"
Until the late republican convention
| believe this proud consunlmatiOn
would be wrought by the republican
party through the establishment of m
dependent blmriallism as the corner
stone OF our financial policy. But that
belief has been shattered by the un-
expected declaration OF the party in
convention assembled, for the abjeCt
surrender d our Independence a
declaration which has awakened in the
minds OF thoughtful men the question
whether financial independence is not
quite as important as political indie
pendence, and whether the one can GER
tainly be maintained without the other.
cannot follow the party in this step
and | must mistake my countrymen il
more than small minority will he
found to approve such a course.
shall vote for Mr.. Bryan. | be-
lieve the tangles caused by the action
OF the populist convention at st. Louis
will be untangled in time and that Mr..
Bryan will be overwhelmingly elected.
The movement, in my opinion, is
best described by the name OF "new
democracy" think it means that the
people generally have determined to
reassert and exercise in their own way
the power which OF late years has been
Welded by the "bOss,s" alone, ami lex
pect to see "landslde" in the drec-
tion OF Bryan. In ancient times it used
TO he said, make way ior the repre-
