WHY

While silver for weeks has been dron.

from about 40 cents an oLnce to less than

De-snufted-out lights of the free-silver
neresy nave been examining a variety of
pressing notions down the throats of
farmers. to call attention to the PRACTICAL
~ simultaneous rise in wheat and drop
in silver.
PROBABLY the free-silver folk will say in
regard to the remarkable rise in wheat
ABOUT Ill cents bushel in a month.
What did we tell you: It's as clear as

ITS price TO 81 %?
WI: bryan contention has been that it
was inip"sSlble for wheat to rise as long
as the gold standard prevailed. ME-
BRYAN Knew as well as any of us that
ne was lying when he said that. What
does he say about it now. His silence
on the subject is most expansive. Posi-

considering that this has been one of

again just why wheat has advanced.
Ii is all summed up in this: The crops

total decrease for the world, according to

explain to everyone except chuckle-head-
ed idiots why wheat has risen.
No Manipulation.
There has been no manipulation about
1t. In fact. the spectators have been
positively dazed at the advance. An
other thing which has indirectly made
wheat rise is the fact that the export
demand has been so heavy that
1t has been found impossible q

The explanation of the decline in silver
wheat. Soon after Bryan's nominatioa
the free-silver shouters kicked I'D suck
a rumpus that spectators both here and
abroad thought there was some chance
OF his success. and silver advanced On
speculative buying to about 20 cents an
ounce. 1t was not long, however, before
the holders became convinced that Bry-
ans chances of success were hopeless,
and they at once began to get rid OF
their loads. Consequently as more and
more holders of silver saw that they
had paid good price for white ele-
phant. and sickened of their bargain.
the price of silver gradually sank until
today it is quoted at 64a cents an ounce.
This is considerably lower than it was
early last summer. when it was thought
improbable that the Democratic party
would come out flat-footed for the free
coinage of silver
The day will come when Mr.. Bryan
and his ilk will learn that natural causes
alone govern the prices of all products.-

Mckinley to the Wool Growers.

Major Mckinley made a telling
speech yesterday 10 the wool growers
of Ohio. 1t elected enthusiastic ap-
plause. and the sturdy wool growers
went home with unbOunded conf
dence in William Mckinley as the
great champion of the peoples cause.
and with an increased determination
to place him in the executive chair
where he can do the most good for
the people and the nation.
William Mckinley has established II
permanent reputation for effective
campaign oratOry. His set speeches
nave always ranked high for excel
lence in both matter and manner. but
he has shown himself in this cam
paign capable of a versatility and IA
cility of popular eloquence rarely
equaled and never surpassed. While
covering a wide field of discussion.
taking up in turn every phase of the
difficult and complicated issues now
before the country. he has employed
style of utterance and argument of
such transparent simplicity as to en-
gage the attention and enlist the SYM
pathieS and convictions of his hearers.
His opponents have not been able TO
find a single flaw in his armOr He is
clad in the impenetrahle steel of an
honest cause and Il noble purpose.
This was especially eXemplified in
his eloquent and effective speech of
yesterday. The assembled farmers
will not soon forget these ringing
words:
1T was said that if we opened mp this
country to the free use of the wool of
the world the farmers would be bene.

benefit you know better than | can

free silver is the panacea for all Your
ills And You have the same money IL

got as much of it rs You had then
AS free wool degraded your industry
so free silver will degrade your mon

pose to be fieeced further by loss OF
