WHY NOT SUPPORT MKINLEYf

I'VE cannot" some Free Traders are saying
"vote for Mckinley, because we do not believe
"in Protection. OF course we cannot vote for
Bryan because his election would imperil
'thc honor and integrity Of the Nation. SO
unless n sound money Democrat is nominated
''we shall not vote at all That Is the argu
mcnt Of those who are asking for the nonna
ton OF third ticket. Let us see what, re-
duccd to its elementary terms 1t means.
They say that Bryan's success would threat
on the Nation with dishonor and ruin That
is quite true. But. taking their own EXTREMIST
view of him, would McKinlcy's success mean
that, or anything like it? Assuredly not. They
never dream of saying that. At worst, 1t
would mean a return to policy which has
been practised by the Nation throughout the
major part of its history. and policy which
Is perfectly honest and honorable.
These gentlemen, on second thought, must
see that In such n course they would run the
risk Of actual ruin to the Nation, rather than
vote for n man from whom they differ on
mere matter Of party policy. They would see
the Republic plunged into the abyss Of repuda
ton. rather than vote for a man who adheres
to the policy Of Washington, Madison, Lin
coin and Grant. They would imper the Ma
ton rather than hold one item Of their party
creed in allegiance They would subordinate Il
question of National morality to one Of party
policy.
That would not be patriotism. Nor Is 1t to
be believed that any considerable number of
honest-money Democrats will pursue such
course. After the chagrin and exasperaton
caused by the Chicago Convention madness
wears off. they will see and accept the logic OF
the situation. They will see that in crisis
such as this he who is not for the right Is
against It, 1t is not enough that man shall
refrain from voting for the Anarchist ticket
He must vote against It, and he can vote
against it effectively only by voting for Nc
Kinley and Hobart.

AT LAST.

II has taken Ncw-York a long time to learn
the lesson that its waste and refuse are valu-
able and may be turned into a source of revc-
nue. Year after year we have gone on blind
" dumping the stuff into the sea, not only
throwing away millions Of dollars, but running
the risk of filling up important channels In the
harbor and actually bcfoulns our unrivallcd
ocean beaches, so that ut times they have been

TWO WAYS.

The United States has outstanding over $3.50
600, 900 of notes, every dollar of which repre-
sents 100 cents of value received by the Gov
eminent There are two plans proposed for
dealing with those notes which the Treasury
is under obligations to redeem. One Is pro-
posed by the party which Is running William
J. Bryan for President. 1t is as follows:
1--WE are opposed to the policy and practice
of surrendering to the holders of the oblign-
tiOns OF the United states the option reserved
such obligations in either silver or gold
cOin.'
This plan provides that the Treasury may
nav off 100 cents of obligation with n piece Of
metal which is worth only % cents 1t means
that the Treasury may drive gold TO premium
by refusing to pay it out, and then, after nav
Ing cheated creditors out of half their claims.
may enrich favortes by exercising the option
of redeeming their holdings in gold. Here Is
the plan outlined by the Republicans, who nom
mated William Mckinley
"AII our silver and paper currency must he
maintained at parity with gold. and we fa-
vOr all measures designed to maintain In
vioInbIe the obligations of the United states
and all our money. whether coin or paper.
Mt the present sta dar I'd, the standard OF the
most enlightened nations of the earth"
That is the policy of equal justice to every
creditor of the Government. the policy of keep
ing every dollar In circulation good for 1OO
cents everywhere, and having no gold huctua-
tons to disturb the value of each acre OF land
and bushel of wheat in the market. Every
man of sound sense and honesty knows that
the Mckinley way is the right way.

MONEY AND BT.S!\ESS.

The last week has been one OF unusual de-

railroad stocks fell from $41 G6 week ago TO

of course. that some securities have allen far

that these stocks have not been depressed
mainly by foreign selling. though some of them
have been I'm part Nor has there been any radi-
cal change In public opinion about their value.
The revolutionary utterancc OF the Chicago Con-
vcntion gave an opportunity To bearish specula-

experience teaches that even the best stocks
