ASSISTANT SECRETARY HAMLIN
Position of the Administration
sound Money Men

Washington, July 1.-THE Evening Star
today says Assistant Secretary Of Treas
lry HamLn made snort statement this
afternoon IN explanation OF his position
regarding the democratic platform ami
nominations. Inasmuch as Hamlln rep
Resented the administration forces at chi
caso, and had been IN frequent conSulta-
tIou with Secretary Carlisle over the Do
ltIcal situation since the aljournm-n, OIL,
tae convention, the statement made By
him today will undoubtedly be accepted
oy many as a semi-Ottl ..aI declaration OF
the position Of the sound money men OF
the administration.
This impression - further strengthened
BY belief that Hammond Ham!in would
spend several days al Marion. near Gray
Babies, on his way back TO Wash. nSt0u
from Chicago. The statement referred 10
IS as follows.
No political issue IL involved in the
coming election. The question 10 De- L.
t4Irl IL Tar deeper and more vital. The
perpetG.ty OF o'L-la- as :. ms has
orth threatened, and every loyal citizen
should ally himself against the forces
when controlled the Chicago convention
forces OF lawlessnrss which are inrousist-
snt with the maintenance Of the republic
Heacrtorth there should be no repuhu-
cans. no democrats. bur a union OF loyal
citizens against the combined forces OF
population ami DISORDER. When once this
dangerous element has been stamped or.t
at the polls BY an indignant people W.
can again divide and discuss those u0lit-
!ca4 question which for generations. have
Kept alive the two grea. political par.
ties"
