We are in receipt OF II letter froc
Harvey Fisk & Son, dealers inselectet
securities, No. 24 Nassau Street. New
York, asking what position this papc
| has decided to take in regard t.
National politics for this campaign
They state that they @arc led to make
this inquiry on account OF the change
Of attitude Of many OF our leading
newspapers, an example of which vii
be found; in the Now York Sun. il
their leading editorial of July 10th, ;
copy OF which we enclose The.
also want II copy OF The issue OF the
INDEPENDENT in which our position
in this fight was announced.
In compliance with their request
we will forward to their address 1
copyof the last issue of the WEEKLY
INDEPENDENT, containing the an
nouncement of our position and the
big American eagle whose screams
for Bryan and Scwall and tho free
coinage OF silver ut the ratio o: lG to
l will penetrate the benighed minds
OF tho money grabbeB of New York
before this campaign is over.
Tho editorial from the New York
Sun, spoken OF above, is valuable i'll
this neck OF the woods only for the
following pen picture it contains Of
Grover Cleveland. the apostle Of the
Sound money" views held by the mil
lionaircs OF the East:
Since the war while the Democrat
&c purity was being built up again i'll
the North. the South, where lay the
Democracy's main strength, made no
sign OF desire for a new departure.
1t accepted willingly rs its candi-
dates that pure disciple of the Demo-
cratic faith, Samuel j. Tilden of New
York, Winfield Scott Hancock OF
Pennsylvania, pretending to nothing
but party orthodoxy, and Grover
Cleveland, M unknown quantity, but,
like Tilden, coming from the conser-
vative State OF New York. But the
seeds OF socialistic revolution were in
the South all the time, and, bv a sim
gular fatality, the first man to obtain
possession Of the Presidents office in
the Democratic name both weakened
Democratic sentiment and famed
populism's destructive flame. \ pO-
litical freak, Of alien instincts, with.
out conception of party government.
and aiming mt personalgovernment
only, he destroyed the idea Of party,
c0herency and allegiance To tradition,
headed and inspired. in the mad cru
sadc OF 1892 against capitals iron
heel and against the rich lis robbers of
the poor. tho greatest socialistic dem
onstra:Ion yet recorded, made. by his
laundering and classifying, the nation.
al monetary standard hateful in the
eyes OF every wavcrer, and actually
proposed the Populistic income tax
now openly made Il plank in the
Democratic platform
as the Sun is now supporting the
financial policy OF this political
freak, Of alien instincts" it should not
sa cruelty roast him on its gndiron.
Grover should never cease to pray
for delivcrancc from the tender mcr-
cies Of his new found friends.

MoREToN FREwEN, the English
writer, proved himself quite a prophet
when he wrote the following, two
months before the panic of 1898;
"Should the United States open Its
mints to both metals, silver would be
rehabilitated, the world over; on the
other hand, az abrupt suspension of all
purchases would precipitate that panic
which seems to be impending every
where over the world Of finance" He
was a clear sighted man, evidently.
To-day, he asserts that the United
States, without the consent Of any for
eign nation, could rehabilltate silver
with benefit.
