"Tn this campaign the parties come
10 YOU with neir platforms, outlining
what they VIII DO. and I'm this campalgn
there is one great question Wnlch over
ebadovr- an others-tue money question.
ON this question the two leading parties
take u1sfions entirely afagonistic 10
each other Te Republican party de-
elareg In fts platform that the gold stand
ard must be maintained until the Leading
commercial nations join with us ln SUD-
shutting hlmorallism FOR the gold sihho-
ard. They do NOT say that n gold stand
ard IS good but simply that we must con-
tinuo it until other nations help us To
secure something which the Repnohcan
platform admits 10 De hotter-name'y' NJ
mcialIIsm.
Vow. the Democratic party takes an
ortirolv different position Heretofore b.
mas been too much the custom Tor both
partios 10 take ambiguous positions and
10 straddla the question.
"Thi. wear they did not DO that Tho
Ropuhiican uartv has declared for the

other nations come 20 orr relief Tho
Democratic party declares its unalterahle
