"This rain il about over" said the

How am 1 abb to do it, Well, It's
like this: When it's going to rain the
brake-handle becomes stacky almost q
day before. The=notorman win first
notice it fully 20 hours before the storm
arrives. You can Just barely notice it
then, but the sickness will increase
until it will be almost impossible to get
a decent grip without tearing the hesh
on your hands. Now, on Friday night,
I began to feel that sticky business, and

hind me that it was going to rain. The
sky was clear, and after he glanced
around he said that was away Of. ]

In an open letter Oct. lot, id.
dressed to Major Mckinley tho New
York World practically coucedes
the election Of Mr.. Bryan. The Only
hops remaining to the Rspnblioans,
says the World, is for MoKinisy to
assume q hostile attitude toward
the trusts and monopoliss; but -
this alternative ID, in the vert m.
ture'of, things an imposaibls one,
the qualification is immaeerial. 81
beneath the noise and smoke
ofethe campaign, !" says the organ
of Republicanism. ,.'the quiet. steady
progress of fusion recorded from
time 70 time in paragraph hidden
among columns Of speeches haa
attracted attention. Yet it nov
presents a very different aspect from
that Of a few weeks ago. Then Re
publican hops was high on sccount
ofsDemocratic and Populist dissep-
sions:: Now that hope has dNin-
died to = few faint aud fading g1im-
mers from q few States that are
normally Democratic BY large ma
jorities. li., l5ses s,.3s !.
Fusion has, to Z reasonable Ger.
tainty, added Alabama, Kansas,
Nebraska, North Carolina and Ten
nessee so electoral yotes-to the
46 electoral votes Of Arkansas, Col
orado, idaho, Mississippi, Montana,
South Carolina, Utah, Washington
aud Wyoming that were already
assumed to be reasonably safe for
silver. It has, presumably, given
10000 Populist votes in Illinois,
$4,000 in Indiana. 10000 in Iowa,
10000 in Kentucky, 10000 in
Missouri, $4,000 in Virginia, and
$1,000 .in'Minnesota towards max
ing good the losses from the defec-
ton Of sound money Democrats
and toward swelling the accession
of free silver Republicans.
"In brief, fusion has made it nee
essary that there shall be enormous
Democratic objections from the free
silver ticket if Mr.. Mckinley is to
have even a respectable majority of
the electoral votes. For even if he
gets every state east Of the Miseis-
sippi and north of the Ohio and the
Potomac, which includes Delaware
and Maryland, and gets West Vir-
ginia, also, he still needs two votes
to make the necessary majority.
Suppose Mr.. Mckinley" adds
the World, as an after thought, "gets
only enough States to just elect
him, and those States all in one
section of the country, what will
be the net result of the election?
The silver heresay will have carried
10 or a dozen moro States than did
Mr.. Harrison in 1892. It will con
troll the machine of national po-
litical party. 1t will be intrenched
as never before. It will organize
Immediately for the Congressional
election two years hence. and for the
Presidency two years after that"

MKINLEY AND THE PEOPLE.

Major McKinley'S personal popular
ity is unique and wonderful if not IN
accountable. OF course he represents
more than any other individual a gov
ernmental policy for which the people
have already resolved, a policy diamet-
rically opposed TO the existing one I'M
der which so much Of calamity has
come 10 this country. Still there Is
that about him. in him or Of him which
IN some way draws the masses TO him.
Down in York county. Pennsylvania,
the rules OF the Republican party give
the voters q chance TO say at the prim-
aries Just what they think Of the rival

fight like the one that is now going on
The rank and file voted. last Satur-
day. for presidential candidates. Clti-
zens who mind their own affairs count

The result was a revelation. Returns

WOULD NOT BE DUMPED.

The harping bugabOo of a fifty-cent
dollar will seemingly never down. No
fact of history, no experience or logic
weighs for a moment with the gold
bug. He and his journal are joined to
their idol, whether in the simiItude OF
calf, an eagle or a dollar. They
have but one cry, one wall: "All gold
will be driven from the country. AS
a cheap dollar can only come Of infla-
ton, how the driving out of gold is TO
cheaper the remaining currency they
don't explain, but they hold to the IL
logical claim none the less tenaciouslys
If gold left the country in I greater
volume than the supply of silver then
the dollar would appreciate. Upon the
other hand should free coinage result in
dumping all the silver Of the world into
America prices would go down and ex-
ports increase, even maybe 10 the ex-
tent of q panic in Europe. But this
silver flood is all assumption and hum

for to do so would entail loss on those

for 10 do so would entail a loss on those
dumping it
And II is even more absurd to speak
of the silver in use as ornaments. as
pIate. etc, as likely to be dumped Oh
eur markets. Household silver and
ornaments, on which much labor has
been expended IN manufacturing.
would not be melted down, for by so
doing the value conferred by workman
ship would be lost TO the owner. Let
the reader ask himself if il is likely
that silver forks and spoons would be
melted down should the price of silver
bullion be doubled. And as TO the
boards in India so vaguely spoken Of,
IL is as unreasonable to suppose that
this silver would be sent TO our minis
for coinage as to suppose that the melt
ing pot would be the fate Of the SER
vice of our churches, should silver
double in price.
The only silver that gold nations
could possibly send us Is the small
amount of silver they possess as bul-
lion. And this bullion sent Us they
would have 20 silver which they could
exnofs TO silver using countries, and
Great Britain and other gold standard
nations would have to buy from US the
wheat and cotton they have been ac-
eustomed TO buying in silver using
countries and paying for it With exports
of silver obtained from us. or buy our
silver at our mint price of SIS an
ounce and use this silver to purchase
wheat and cotton in silver using eoun-
tries. Thus the demand for our wheat
and cotton and other produce would In
crease and prices rise until the Eng
lish trader saw his advantage IA pay
ing cur mint price for silver and buy
ing with 1t wheat and cotton In silver
using countries rather than pay the
higher prices for our wheat and cotton.
Thus silver would be restored to
parity with gold and receiving higher
prices for our commodities, We would
be able to meet our foreign indebted
ness without exporting gold. AT pres
ent low prices for commodities, exports
OF gold to pay interest charges, etc,
are inevitable. This drain can only
be checked by opening our minis to sill
YER
Opening our minis to silver would not
drive out gold. 1t would give US BIZ
metallism, not silver-monometallism,
whereas pursuit of the present unwlse
course of gold-monometallism will lead
10 the exhaustion of our stock Of gold
and suspension OF gold payments.

THE METBo2IsFs WITH Us.

Five hundred representative men and
women Of the pioneer Protestant
church Of America, for the southwest
conference district of Kansas, meet In
Wichita today, FIVE hundred presiding
elders, pastors, circuit riders, class
leaders and delegates all told. The
writer attended the first conference
ever convened in the Transmissourl.
1t represented the MethOdism of two
territories. and was called the Kansas
Nebraska conference. The presiding
Bishop Of that conference has long
since gone to his reward as have all
the Bishops who were then living save
one, among whom were the superb
and magnetic Simpson, the piOus Nor
ris, the scholarly Jones and the effec-
tive Ames. The most striking figure.
the greatest and most distinctive per-
sonality of that little conference OF
western pioneers, was Colonel "a q.
Chivington. the hero of Sand Creek,
who died but two years since, Mt his
home in Denver, hOnored and respect
cd. despite all his adverSities and VI
cissitudes, forceful to the last. The
siIver-tongued Denis, the persuasive
Mitchell and the unique Davis have all,
also, Joined the ever,swelling ranks of
the silent majority, and their works
do follow them"
Methodism holds well to its primitive
enunciations and beliefs. The spirit
and faith of its Wesleys, its Cokes and
Asburys, still sway its now nearly four
millions OF communicates, in every
land beneath every sun. Its method
lied Episcopacy is just such mingling
of apostolic dictum and Of Republican
rule as renders peculiarly acceptable
70 the liberty loving Americans who
would be followers Of the "meek and
lowly" Nazarene.
For almost an entire week the homes
of Wichita will be the homes of these
ministers and delegates of the confer'
ence. That they will be welcomed in
the spirit of the Master, and their stay
rendered as enjoyable as willing hearts
and abundant boards can make it there
is not the least doubt
