MCKINLEY ON SILVER,

The Fresno Republican evidently
believes that Mckinley will pass on
the silver question. For the benefit
OF itself and other Republican papers
mat favor free silver We Ieprint from
the New York Sun an article giving
the record of the Ohio Statesman on
this question. II will be seen from
the article that McKinley's course has
been a webbing one, and that it would
require the penetration "fan N-ray to
enable one TO decide from it how he
Stands. Our opinion that Mckinley
is at heart opposed to free coinage is
based upon the platf ,rm .adpprei a
few weeks ago by he Olio R.puoli
cans, II platform which was undoubt-
eddy inspired by Mckinley. The mon
etary plank of that platform is an or
dinate straddle, but it possesses all
those CHARACTERISTICS that have led
earlier straddles on the same subject
to be construed in favor Of the g,ld
standard. That is, it contains The
S"'N" ~ patty anu DIlltldl-
ism with restrictions." As the Rep
utlIcan has always been an intelli-
gent advocate Of the white metal. if
must Know tn 1t no monetary plank
80 constructed can be construed as
favOring the free coinage OF silver as
UNDERSTOOD by genuine binAtalli-ts.
Its point that Chairman Hariitv of
the Democratic NatiDnal Committee
has d. clared that the nomination #
Mckinley would ALLEVIATE the upp trt
OF the single gold stand Ard eien.nt Of
the East cannot property be adduc-d
as evidence that the Ono man is a BIZ
met"lllst. There are many gold stan
dard R~epuhlicans who demand that
their party shall declare uneQuivurallv
for that standard and these are un-
donbtediy dispn- ed to look upon Ne
kinley with suspicip VI. On he other
hand, the out tnd-ont silver R.pun-
licans scott at the Ohio plank which.
it has been stated, will serve as rhe
model for the monetary plank to be
adopted by he National Convention
BY far the largest number of Rrpub
leans, however are not aversa t. a
straddle, and orr Fresno contemp0r-
arv seems to he slowly but Inevitably
drifting in that direction They con-
slider Mckinley the best candidate be-
cause they helipvp his nomination

OUR nEfENSNS,
Admiral Walker Discusses the Ma
TONS Needs

Washington, Feb. !, Admiral
Walker appeared before the commit
tee on coast derCnsrs and made an en-
haustiye statement on the subject Of
coast dCfenscs from Il naval point Of
view. The admiral stated that while
of course, he advocates the constitute
ton OF Il thoroughly effective naval
force, he fully recognizes the absolute
necessity of land dctCnses. He stated
that without the land dctcusCs our
doCkyards could be destroyed and our
ships pursued into port and aunihi~
lated by Il superior fleet. He also ad~
yocatcs the building of battle ships
rather than harhor defense vessels as
being better adapted for general pur-
poses of attack and defense. In reply
to n question the admiral stated that
were he in charge Of the defense of the
country and had 100000, 600 at his
disposal for that purpose, he would
devote $40, 000. 600 to land dcfcnscs and
$50 goo. 900 To the navy.
