Encouraging Signs.

III per C0uG. Ill Gu6 Dl Oh 1OIlONlAS IL
Kenosha county since July l. Careful
observers make this statement after
talking with farmers and business men
from all parts O. the country. At the
time Of the silver convention there was
here as elsewhere an outbreak of the
silver craze. The craze subsidized as
swiftly as it had grown, and the tide
of popular sentiment has set in now
even stronger in the opposite direction.
The same report is heard from other
parts of the state. The Wisconsin
National bank sent out some ninety
circular letters to its correspondents in
all parts of Wisconsin, requesting direct
and reliable information on the sub
-ject Replies have already been re-
ceiVed from forty -three of these cor
respondents, located in every part of
the state, and without exception they
declare that the silver sentiment
reached high tide shortly after the
democratic convention and is now re-
ceding with greater rapidity than it
came up.
One correspondent declares that had
the election been held three weeks ago
the silverites would have carried
everything before them on the silver
issue, but that literature has been
freely circulated among the people
since, that there are now six gold men
to each silverite, and by November the
ratio will be "16 to l." This report
comes from Mineral Point.
Beloit declares that the vote for Nc
Kinley and sound money will exceed
that given to any candidate at any
previous election. ManitoWoc writes
that the silverites are not numerous
and are losing every day as the work
of education goes on and the people
become informed on the subject.
The correspondent at Berlin writes
that the people there are anxious for
information on the subject; they were
crazed by the work of the Chicago
convention, then came the awakening,
and now as the work of enlightenment
goes on they are getting in shape to
poll the largest vote ever cast there in
favor of honest money.
At Sheboygan the honest money
sentiment is gaining every day, and
the correspondent predicts that She
boygan will roll up a majority for Nc
Kinley.
At Chiffon the farmers are enthusi-
astic advocates of sound money.
At La Crosse the old wheel horses
of the democratic party are openly ad-
vocating the election of Mckinley, not
Withstanding their objection to his tariff
sentiments.
At Oshkosh the silver movement is
absolutely dead, and some of the men
who were the loudest shouters in its
favor are now advocating a gold
standard.
A correspondent at Beaver Dam who
declares he is a Cleveland democrat
predicts that Mckinley will sweep the
city and surrounding towns.
Boscobel predicts a very heavy re-
publican vote.
Ashland declares that the silver SEN
timent is rapidly disappearing and that
there is rapidly growing sentiment in
favor of Mckinley.
A poll of Green Bay shows it to be
almost solid for sound money. This is
the story told in the letters from all
parts of the state from observations
made by careful, conservative business
men, who are unused to the ways and
snares of the politicians, whose policy
is to claim everything up to the very
hour of defeat.

ALL men who advocate free silver
are not cranks, but every crank and
disturber in the country has this year
planted both feet on the free silver
plank of the demo-populist party.

THE organization Of republican

The newspapers that advise farmers
to vote for free silver and be made
rich, this year, are the ones who adj
vised them four years ago to vote for
free trade and be made rich. Riches
that resemble the free trade sort are
not in great demand.

THE address of the gold democrats
to the members of their party is sound,
logical, convincing. 1t shows how far
these popocrats have departed from
the teachings of the great democrats
of the present and of the past. 1t
shows that the platform adopted at
Chicago has no right to be called dem
ocratic. 1t shows that the populists
and not the democrats were at the
head of affairs in Chicago. 1t shows
that the foundation ideas of the demo-
cratic party have been thrust aside and
that the Chicago candidate and plat
form cannot be consistently supported
by any of the democrats who think and
who are familiar with the party's his
tory and principles. As well might the
prohibition party declare for free
whisky and beer and then appeal to
he prohibitionists to support it.
