4 W0RD TO our DEMOCRATIC
FRIENDS.

f"s"SO~
We suppose that we do not know
enough to follow tho example of
our iHnStrioys contemporaries i'm
chris and otlIev States To bolt the
sFcket nominated at Chicago and
Se9'TovT Major Mckinley for Pres
idcsas, although we arc inclined to
sciicS'e in a gold posicy. With
this acknowledgement, we can still
stand shoulder to shoulder with
the silver eatlfuSiast, and help
light the battles of Democracy and
the people.
Our Democracy rs tire kind that
believes in a party THAT is not tied
down to one idea as TIVE Rcpobli
can party is.
We believe in local ;s6lf govern.
ment, one of the leading policies
of the Democratic party. HAS the
Republican party ever shown adds,

istered. Does not the Republican
party favor a prOhibitory tariff, if
not in their platform, then by their
candidate We say yes. Can. il
be denied Z We ARE opposed to all
Federal interference with our cleo
tions. VNifat is the record of the
Republican party on this question:
Did not the man, who is at the
head Of tihe Republican ticket, adj
vOcate Il law III Congress only n
few sears ago to place our election
machinery ia the hands of Repub-
Lean FedsEak officials Z We say
that Mckinley dad advocate such
a aw,and refer you to the proceed
ings of the 51St Congress for the
truth of our statement.
What party was it that doubled
tina National debt of oun country
IN 1869 J The answer comes back,
IT WAS tho Republican party.
And yet when tho question
comes up as to whether we are to
holt our party on a single issue, we
hear Democrats say we cannot
vote the ticket OH account of the
silver plank in the platform. You
are not willing 70 swallow the sill
yer plank, but you are willing to
Swallow Mckinley and oil the evils
the Republican party would subject
us to. alright friends 60 ahead

which every Democrat should pull

the election. We find great lists

are constrained to- believe that we

FIXING THE VALUE OF WHEAT BY IN
TERNATIONAL AGREEMENT.

The Russian proposition that an In
teFnstionsl agreement be made to reg
ulate the market price Of wheat is
quite as reasonable and quite ss praC
ticsble as the proposition submitted
by the Republicans OF the United
States to regulate the value of silver
bullion by an international agreement.
Russian farmers produce more wheat
than the home demand requires, and
therefore their surplus is exported.
It goes chiefly to Liverpool for diStrl-
button among the people OF Great
Britain end Belgium. Russian wheat
comes directly 10 competition there
with that exporte I to the same market
by American farmers. The average
worlds yearly demand for foreign
wheat is about 200 million bushels.
The average annual wheat production
Of the worlds farmers during the last
ten years has been about 2,l00 million
bushels. It is now little above that
-ssy 1900 million. Russia, India,
Argentina and the United States are
the principal wheat exporting nations,
and the worlds price for this 200 mil.
lion bushels Of foreign demand regu.
lsieS the selling price OF all th- wheat
that is sold In the home markets Of
the exporting countries.

conditions exciting IN the importing
nations. No more whest would be
purchased than is required, according
to such conditions, and when q crop

international price, farmers would
store their grain at home and raise less

demand would more nearly ScoommO.
date themselves to each other on the
line Of the regular price.
But the prospect OF such an Sgree'
ment concerning the price OF wheat ls
about as sure Of being entered into as
the proposed agreement respecting
silver.
