CHICAGO. June 12.-The Record this
morning prints the following kilograms
from ST. Louis, under the caption
Talking for Tariff"
ITO the Editor of the Record:-There
is absolutely no possibility of a serious
schism in the party growing out of
whit action will be taken on finance
or other issues. The Republican party,
ever intact because of it's strong basic
principles of humanity and reason,
cannot be affected by individual opin-
ion OH minor passing circumstances.
Soliditied by the nomination of Major
Mckinley, its undertaking course to-
ward an overwhelming victory will not
be altered by sectional disappointment,
even if any such shall arise.
For some time l have thought that
Mr.. Hobart. of New Jersey would be
a. good candidate for vice-president.
He is a successful business man, we'll
known and acceptable to the eastern
Republicans. If the president is
not TO go to New York l think New
Jersey is the best eastern state to
nominate from. With Hobart on the
ticket we could certainly rely upon
New Jersey remaining Republican.
All I have said In favor of Mr.. Hobart
applies with equal force to Henry Clay
Evans, of Tennessee, if it should be
deemed wise to go to the south instead
OF the east for the candidate,
(Signsd) JOHN NJ. THURSTON."
.I think the duration of the conven-
ton Will be about three days. The Re-
publicans will be given a long lease of
power. becau their, principles are
right REDFIELD PROCTOR
POSITIVE.
There has never been a. national
convention in which as thorough an
agreement in every plank in the plat
fdrm will be reached as in the one to
be held in ST Louis on the 18th. The
money plank viii be practically adopted
before the convention is called to
order. ]. NJ. MILLIKEN,

CALIFORNIA; VIEW.
While California is in favor of the
free coinage of silver, it still has in
terests it considers greater, and that
is why it favoTs protection. Our great
est wealth lies in our natural products,
in wool and live stock, and we are as
DESTROYS of extreme and radical pro-
lection as for the free coinage Of sill
yer. AS Republicans we want to fight
out all issues within the party.

WILL RESENT IT.
~
generally conceded that l should ten
der my views in regard to the conven-
ton to be held here next week, but
since you ask it I can only say that il
seems to me that the nomination OF
Mckinley. now a foregone conclusions
is the logical beginning of an effort to
utterly extract the question of finance
from the forthcoming campaign-ar
effort which I believe the people gen
orally wiz resent l cannot see any
other great ground for Mckinley
selection. He is symbolic of the tariff
and his nomination must mean that ths
Republican campaign is to be con
| Quoted with a pleasing haze of doub'
over the money issue. If the Repub4i
cans can stand this kind of campaign
1 am sure that their historic opponent,
will offer no objection to them doing
so. they being secure in the feeling

Governor of Missouri
AGAINST FREE COINAGE
81 think that the Republican ma
tional convention should declar
against the free coinage of silver. Tha
is about all that need be said on tn
financial question. Silver should b
used as it is used now. The conven
ton should take no action that viii
depreciate the value of $500, 000,0 600 O
silver now in circulation. ] believ
that the money question will be super
coded by the question of restoring tn
tariff which will remove the presen
deficit of the revenues and create
balance of trade in our favor. AS 500
as the campaign opens l believe tn
tariff will be pushed in front of tn
| money question.

TRUMBo is TRUE.

ALL DUE TO TARIFF.
"As tariff, reciprocity and the intel
ests of the United States and Amer
cans will be the issues there will be,
my opinion, no effort to confine tt
campaign struggle to any particule
section of the country. The financi;
agitation is the outgrowth of II
operation of the present tariff law. an
tine currency evils will be cured by
. Republican tariff measure. Howeve
the currency or the money duestio
must necessarily be an issue in the can
paign if for no other reason becau.
. it is a fragment of the present 10
tariff evil. PERRY H. HEATH. -
