To Mr.. William Jennings Bryan
Headquarters Democratic Party, Chi
cago We. the undersigned members of
the International Agricultural Congress,
convened at Budapest, wish you success
in your struggle against the domination
of the creditor class, which during the
past twenty-three years has secured,
both in America and Europe, monetary
legislation destructive of the prosperity
of your farmers and others.
Should you be victorious in Novem-
Der, we pledge ourselves to spare no eff
fort to bring immediate pressure upon
our respective governments to CO.
operate with the government of your
great nation In restoring silver to the
worlds currency.
We believe that, failing such restoaa-
ton, the gold premium throughout all |
Asia and South America will continue
to rob the farmer equally of America
and Europe of all rewards for his toll |
and that your election may avert from
Europe serious agrarian and social
troubles now pending.

of the democratic state committee called
for tomorrow night is causing much
discussion and speculation tonight
Chairman Danforth said today that this
meeting would simply be to elect sue
cessor in w. F. Sheehan as national
mmitteeman and to attend to the de-
tails of the campaign. 1t is rumored,
however, that Senator Coffey of King s
county will voice the sentiments of the
silver men on the ticket and ask the
ommittee to use the power delegated
it by the state convention and name a
new candidate for governor.
John Boyd Thatcher has not yet de-
clined or accepted, but it is understood
he will act in the matter as the commit
tee desires. 1t is because of this serious
situation that Senator Hill is expected
in the city tomorrow to take charge of
affairs and watch the meeting. 1t is
generally believed the state organization
represented by Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Shee-
han hold a majority of the committee
In their grasp, and thesefore that the sill
verites will be defeated.

ORIGIN or THE STRIKE,
Agreement TO Work for s3 II Day I'm
tii silver IL S3 Cents.

Leadville, Sept. 2I.-The miners
strike, of which last nights lawlessnes
is the outcome, began three months ago
yesterday, when at II o'clock at night
the men In two or three of the leading
mines walked out. The union scale of
wages In Leadville was So for everybody
but In 1903 when the price of silver
dropped below 90 cents an ounce, an
agreement was made that $2.so should
be accepted for some classes of work
until silver should return to SO cents.
This agreement the miners declared af-
terward was unfair, as many of the
mines paid large dividends. 1t was to
enforce the original scale of So that the
men struck. About 5000 men are In
volved.
Within the last two weeks several of
the mines have resumed work and last
week the daily output was 1900 tons as
against 1000 before the strike

THOSE sASkE :, CIRCULARS.

Among the .nnumeFable fakes ard fcrg-
cries which have been put forward from
time 10 time BY The PopuIistic press, the
so-eailed bankers circulars are among
the most Incredibly silly. THAI there are
people who SIN believe that such circu-
lars really were issued and sent out for
the purpose stated. Is shown by the fact
that every once In a while one or the
other OF these aelecsao.e pieces OF clumsy
forgery Is reproduced with glazing head
lines and appropriate comments by some
Of the small fry Popuiistic newspapers.
which certainly musi have considerable
confidence in the gllllibility OF their read

Ii Is somewhat 10 Mr.. Bryan's credit
that he has RETAINED from the attempt TO

cries OF which these bankers circulars"
are easily the crudest The certainty OF
