Senator ThurstOn, of Nebraska, Says the

Senator ThurstOn, of Nebraska, Says the
Silver Issue VIII Soon Die Out.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug l2.-"The
currency question will not be the issue
of this campaign after 40 days." This
statement was made by Senator Thurs
ton, of Nebraska, Mt the Coates house
this morning. Mr. Bryan's successful
rival for the United States senate made
this surprising statement, with the ut
most deliberation, in reply to the dues
ton: "How much tariff element, sena-
tor, do the republican managers pro-
pose to put into the campaign" con-
tinuing, he said:
At present the agitation for free silver coin
age is u cloak which will be torn away within
lJ days. The issue then will be law and order
versus lQwlessnessl 1h5 arguments for free
silver will be swallowed up in the unnGSked
effort to tear down the courts and to batter at
tho foundations Of tranquility, the rights
OF property and the supremacy of the
law The tnrin has already been
swallowed up in the free silver
agitation and, in like manner, free silver will
stand aside before tho open contest between
the republican party standing for The suprom-
acy OF the national government, the law and
tho courts, and the forces OF disorder, alarm
ana hate. It will not take ~ days 20 show that
the silver uRtatOrs are the rcyivers OF section
alism and the advocates OF class legislation.
Then, in short paragraphs, the scna-
tor continued:
Mr. Bryan viii not carry Nebraska. lie will
not carry his own state, his own congressional
district, his own town or his own ward

consin They are safe for Mckinley A, De
Laitre's sawmih In Minneapolis ballots were
handed to the men and secret ballot taken.
The result was 50, votes for Mckinley and %
for Bryan.
It is my deliberate opinion that Mr. Bryan
has no strength whatever east OF the Missouri
river The crash OF the free silver bubble will
be ridiculous in It's utter collapse. The Bryan
wave does not now exist as a fact He could
not carry state east OF the Missouri river to-
day.
In 1891 Mr. Bryan carried his congressional
district by 1901 In 1889! he had 10 plurality.
In 1921, after Two joint debates between Mr..
Bryan and myself, one on the tariff and one on
tho currency, on the occasion OF the contest
between us FOR the United States senate, the
republicans elected every Legislative candidate
in the district The mean maiOrltieS were s.

On motion of MIR. Glenn, OF Greeley,
the resolution was tabled j. Il. Lud-
lum, of Wichita, president Of the Order
of Mystic Brotherhood, the anti-pro-
hibition secret society, endeavored to
read a resolution, but it was becoming
apparent that the convention was
likely to get into u wrangle on the
prohibition question, and motion to
refer all further resolutions, without
reading, was carried with q whoop.
The resolution which Mr.. Ludlum in
troduccd but failed to have read, was
as follows:
Whereas, The republican party believes
that the majority should rule and that the pco-
pie should be trusted upon any prOpositionand
when the people appeal TO the republican
party to be heard 1t should be accorded them,
and
Whereas, A large and respected number OF

Resolved That, while we believe in the en-
fOrcement OF all law upon the statute books,
we are yoL in favor Of listening to the demands

At 1880 the convention adjourned
