Questions for Mi. Bryan.

lot bryan.
Among the questions propounded to
Bryan by tho New Cork World. and to
which he has not replied one word. are
the following:
Is IL not q fact worth consideration In
proposing a descent to the silver stand
ard that the thirty-nine old-style life in
surance companies alone doing business
in this state last year had in force here
nearly 20000 900 policies, insurlng over s, 600,
00e. 600? The assessment companies and
various benevolent orders have a vast
amount more. Would Il not be an injury
and wrong 70 the beneactaries OF these
policies-the widows and orphans whom a
provident love had sought to protect-to
compel them 10 receive IN payment de-
preclated money!
The rise In prices which you predict az
q result OF free coinage would. OF course,
mean an increase In The cost OF living 60
all the people-to wage-earners. salaried
men and the whole body OF consumers. DO
you know Of any case In which a rise in
wages or salaries has been parallel with
the rise In prices? Is there any way %
render It certain. or even probable. that
the wage-earners VIII be compensated Tor
the increased cost OF living?
You attribute the decline IN silver "a
the demonstration OF the silver dollar
in 1873. though that dollar was not then
coined in any considerable numbers and
was not In circulation at all, owing TO the
fact that silver bullion was worth more II
the market than at the mint Do you not
consider that the increase In the world 5
silver production from 81. 600 ounces In
1ST2 10 165. 900. 600 ounces in 1885 had some
thing TO DO In causing this decline, even
though gold. the standard money OF al
the great commercial nations. and the
most sought after OF money metals. has
also increased it's yield meanwhile7
You speak OF the 'criIne against silver
involved In suspending the coinage OF nom
circulating dollars. Has your attention
been called TO the fact that the govern
rnent coined only 296 600 silver dollars IN
1873. but that from January ! 20 June 90
OF this year II coined T.50o,4l2 or sos, ssi

EDITOR DANA'S ADVICE.
Democrats Should Vote for McKin-
ley and Not Sacrifice Prin-
ciple to Party.
New York Sun: The political reasons
for not putting up an honest-money cam
didate this year on genuinely Demo-
cratic platform are strong and obvious.
The nomination of another Democratic
candidate would contribute to the per-
sonal comfort of Democrats who are re-
luctant to vote for Mr.. Mckinley, but
it would accomplish nothing else. :. And
this method of voting for principle only
would surely imperil the result in many
u close state.
Better far to vote for principle in
q way that will count. /.

many years, make commercial confidence

nitely postpone revival of good times.
Under these circumstances the Argus

To Attempt the Impossible.
Staunton (Va) News: A law de-
claring that wheat, regardless of the
surplus on the markets or the demand
for it, should sell the year round at 81
per bushel and that corn and oats,
should always sell at the same figure
as wheat, would be just as sensible as
free coinage of silver law and would
be just as easy to carry into effect. The
gist of the whole matter is that to at
