opposed to changing the ratio, because they
have driven down the value of silver bullion
by one bad law, and we are not in favor
Of holding 1t down by another bad law. My
friends, let me give you another reason
for changing the ratio. If the ratio were
changed by International agreement to 80 to
l instead Of 16 to l, what would be the re-
suit? You would have to recon four billion
dollars of silver into dollars twice large,
which would be two billion dollars and that
would mean decrease of one-f fourth of the
metallic money Of the world and raise the
value Of a dollar, and those who own dol
lars would profit by it and everybody who
owed debt would be plunged by 1t, and
that is why the advocates to the 80 to 1
ratio are found among the money owners
and the money changing classes.
Our opponents are so afraid of a 50-cent
dollar, so much afraid of 1t that some-the
employers of labor, some of the manufac-
turers-are going to pay their debts with q
cheap dollar-I am not sure my friend is one
of them-but whenever a dollar gets cheap
he can pay them twice as many dollars Il he
loves them as well after the election as he
does now. If a dollar is only worth 80 cents
1t Is because prices of commodities are twice
as high, and If the manufacturer can get
twice as many silver dollars for his goods as
he does a gold dollar now, now why can't
he pay his employees twice as much so he
won't lose cent.
Mr.. Clough-But he won't do 1t.
Mr.. Bryan-Then you stop telling your en-
ployes you are interested in them just before
election.
Mr.. Clough-I am merely stating the facts
Mr. Bryan-You stating what are the
facts The employer never pays any more
than he has to pay. 1t is only before cam
paigns that he poses as philanthropist and
tries to make his employees vote his way.
Our system will create demand for labor
and that demand for labor will force them
to do what the gentleman says they would
not do of their own accord.
Mr.. Bryan then closed amid applause.

President Cleveland Attacked by
Senator Morgan.
TROY, Ala, Sept. 26.- United States
senator Morgan spoke here this after
noon in the interest of Bryan and Sc
wall, saying in conclusions,
There Is still something to be proud
OF as Democrats. We can appeal to
the financial record of Washington,
Thomas Jefferson and Jackson, three
presidents who approved the coinage Of
gold and silver on equal terms as full
legal tender money; we can appeal to
the fact that the Democratic creed
never contained an expression or hint
OF hostility to either metal; we can ap-
peal to the fact that no Democrat in
congress or out of congress an be
named, who ever antagonized silver be-
fore 1873, when John Sherman, leading
the bankers, took the lead also. of a.
few Democrats from stat IS whose peu-
pie held large amounts OF gove1lWient
bonds
We can appeal to the fact that we
have voted for Seymour, Tilden. Han
cock, and, three times for Cleveland
all New Yorkers-and once for Hora &c
Greeley, New Yorker for the sake Of
peace, harmony and unity in the party
and sometimes at the sacrifice of orr
personal judgment, and that we never
deserted to the enemy If all this dis
proved our Democracy, then we are
not Democrats: we have only been
fools.
Il regret that Mr. Cleveland mfstook
the party to which he devoted himself
with such self-sacrifice, during three
elections, two of them successful. as be-
Ing his sort of a Democratic party. If
is sad thing to contemplate that
great man should be thus BETRAYED into
the presidency for two terms by the
votes Of men who turned out to be
silver lunatics and .perfidious' betray
ers or their supposed chief and master.
1t is not our fault that he made the
mistake of supposing that he was ever
Democrat. 1t is said that he is
man OF noble independence. That is
great trait when it leads one to refuse
offices and honors, but when these have
exhausted the generosity of the people

He TAKES NEWMAN's PLACE
AS THIRD VICE PRESIDENT OF
THE CHICAGO & NORTHWEST
ERN SYSTEM.
CLARK AND SCOTT ALSO GO UP.
Long Line of Promotions Results
From the New Change in
the Management.

The speculation which followed the
resignation of w H. Newman as third
vice president of the Northwestern sys-
TEN was set at rest yesterday by the
announcemnt of the appointment of
his successor
Horace G. Burt, the present general
manager of the road, is the lucky man.
The announcement was made yester-
day by President Marvin Hughitt the
appointment taking effect Oct. 1. Vice
President Burt's headquarters will be
in Chicago. The selection of Mr.. Burt
has caused a great surprise In their
speculations no one has suggested the
name OF the present general manager
for the vacancy. 1t was thought that
Mr.. Burt was far too valuable a man
to spare from his present post, but it
seems that he has been such a success
as general manager that he is needed
10 NIL still higher post. Mr. Burt
mas been general manager Of the
Omaha Tor comparatively brief time
but he has made an excellent record
he succeeded Edwin W. Winter. who
became president of the Northern Pa
chic, and prior to his coming to St
Paul was general manager of the Ere
mont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley. His
progress during the past year has been
of the sky rocket order, but it is the
legitimate reward of thorough eff
cheney
The elevation of Mr.. Burt creates a.
vacancy in the post of general man
ager, but this contingency has been
provided for by the appointment of w.
A. Scott to that post. For several
years Mr.. Scott has been general super
intendent of the Omaha, and a more
popular official never breathed. He has
earned the post through a long and
faithful service with the road. The post
OF general superintendent will be
merged into that Of the general man
ager, and Mr.. Scott will assume the
latter title.
Another man whom everyone is thor
oughly glad to see go up is James I.
Clark, who will hereafter be known as
general traffic manager Mr. Clark
While genral freight agent made an
enviable record, and in his new duties
he will have entire supervision over
both the passenger and freight traffic.
w. II. Stannet, formerly assistant to
President Hughitt, becomes auditor of
expenditures.
The policy of the Northwestern sys-
tenn Is very clearly shown in these
changes. 1t shows the influence which
Mr.. Newman had over the affairs Of
the road when he was third vice presi-
dent. In each case mentioned above
capable official has been elevated
from the position he occupied to a
higher post of responsibility, thus
bringing to their doors a reward Of
merit. Many roads dislike to change
an official who is a success in the po-
sition he may chance to occupy, but
the Northwestern believes in the pro-
motion of the faithful. This is the
same system which Mr. Newman has
pledged to introduce on the Great
Northern system
In losing Mr.. Burt st. Paul is de-
prived of very popular citizen, but
st. PauPs loss is Chicago's gain For
tunately Mr.. Clark's headquarters will
continue to be in this city.
