The Issue.



On tbs assumption that the Democratic
convention az Chicago VIII declare Itself in
favor OF free coinage OF silver. and that
the only alternative presented 10 gold
standard Democrats is 20 vote their own or
the Republican national ticket. there is
not the least doubt that a large number OF
them would east their votes for the Re
publiean presidential nominee. provided
hs stood upon a platform which affirmed
IN clear and unmistakabie terms that. our
currency system vas based upon a gold
standard. ami that silver played no part
IN u. except as subsidiary coin for the
smaller transactions Of trade This IS the
true issue before the people OF the United
States: Il Is an issue that the conditions
have made. and IS not the handiwork Of
politicians. ~ Is an issue that vitality af-
feCts the interests Of every man. woman
ant child from Maine TO California. and
because % its overwhelming Importance
it suboralnstes to Itself all political con-
sideTat lions.
