they Will do. and in this campaign there
is one great question which OvershadoWs
an others-the money question. on this
question tine two leading parties take
positions entirely antagonistc 10 each
l.a-r The Republican party declares
m its platform that the gold standard
must be- maintained until the leading
f..fH M D rre la en- n
..utrg bimetailism for the gold stand
ar They DO not say that a gold stand
ara &. good. but simply that we must con-
Time ID until other nations help as 10 Sc
cure something which the Republican
t'atform admits TO be better-namely,
5u.t4!.sm.
"Nrw. the Democratic party takes an
entirely different position. Heretofore u
i- been TOO much the custom for both
PARTIES to -lke ambiguous positions, and
q. -tralII. the question. This year they
Dl not do that The Republican party
las declared Tor the maintenance Of the
god standard until other nations come
t. urr relief Tha Democratic party de-
cares its unarered opposition TO a gold
