SILVER TRUST CONSPIRACY
It's Object and Prospective Profit
Stated by an Official.
New York World

Thomas s. Merrill, secretary of the Bi-
metallic League OF the silver States, has let the
cat out of the bag as to the conspiracy of the
silver mine owners to unload their bullion
on the United States Government in q letter
he sent to the Salt Lake Herald. Mr.. Merrill
says in his letter:
.'If Bryan is defeated we must expect to see
silver sold at price that will be given it
simply by Its demand for use in the arts, which
will certainly be not more than 40 cents an
ounce In view of these facts, the owners of
silver-prod properties can afford to con-
tribute at least the additional profits they re-
ceive from their own silver product for one
month to the Bryanite campaign" He closes
with direct appeal to well-known silver-mine
owners, as follows:
81 appeal to Messrs. Mcintyre & Cunning
ham of the Mammoth, Keith q Kearns of the
Silver King, Chisholm aud others of the Gen.
tennial and Eureka, Ryan & Knox of the
Ajax, Packard of the Eureka Hill, Daily of the
DAILY, West, Beck and associates of the Bull
lion-Beck, Farnsworth & Sharp of the Horn
Silver, and the owners of the Sioux,
Ontario (W. r. Hearst, vice -president), and
other silver mines of this State, who can well
afford TO assist in this cause, to figure up
the average monthly silver product from
their mines and multiply the product OF
one month in ounces by GA cents, which is the
additional price sthey will receive for their

REGULARITY SUSTAINED.

The Supreme Court has sustained the
| claim of the ticket headed by Colonel
| Charles L. TAYLOR to be the rightful and
regular Republican ticket in this City.
Thus by the court of last appeal has Re-
publican regularity been maintained. The
controversy over that issue is at an end.
If any who call themselves Republicans
continue in opposition to the ticket headed
by Colonel Taylor they can do so only as
ayowed boilers and foes of the party Or
| ganization.
The history of the controversy Is IA
| miliar to the public. The convention by
which Colonel Taylor and his colleagues
on the ticket were nominated was called
by the Republican County Committee,
and every action taken by it from its
organization to its close was in strict
accordance with party law and precedent.
The title of tie nominees OF the conven-
ton to place on the official ballot as the
Republican candidates was disputed, but
was decided by Registrar Hinton in their
favor. An appeal was taken to the Re-
publican State Central Committee, and
that impartial body of Republican leaders
representing all parts of the State sus-
tanned the ticket with but single dis
senting voice. The Supreme Court was
the only other authority to which the
controversy could be carried, and that
eminent tribunal has now spoken sustain
ing the decree of the Registrar andl con-
tirming that of the Stale Central Commit
lee.
THE CALL can Justly congratulate all
loyal Republicans on this termination of
prolonged and disturbing controversy in
the party. From the first, The CALL
upheld the cause of the regular ticket on
the broad ground that regularity is essen
tial to party discipline, organization and
success. 1t has been clear all along, more
over, to intelligent Republicans that vic
tory could be attained only by harmony
in the ranks and the cordial cooperation
of all members of the party working
together within the organization and in
support of the nominees named by the
regular convention, which represented the
historic continuity of the party in. San
Francisco.
The decision of the Supreme Court puts
an end to all doubts and questions con-
cerning the right of the regular ticket to
stand as the representative of San Fran
cisco Republicanism. The one plain duty
of all Republicans is now to support that
ticket. Loyal hearts can win a sweeping
victory. Democracy is divided and de-
moralized. A united Republican party
has before it an opportunity for an unpre-
cedented success. Let US turn from
party dissensions and go forward. Let us
elect Colonel Taylor, give San Francisco
good government and assure the elect oral
vote of California to Mckinley and Hobart.

DEMoRALIzED DEMOCRACY.

The demoralized condition of the Demo-
cratic party of California is a fit subject
for the thoughtful consideration of all
citizens, no matter to what political or
ganization they may adhere.
That the Democratic party is rent in
twain is due to the fact that an overmas-
tering hunger for possible success led a
bolsterous and numerically powerful fac
ton of the party to indorse theories and
isms foreign not only to the true princi-
Piles of Democracy, but antagonistic to the
fundamental truths of American states
manship.
The shifty temporizers of the Demo-
cratic party, those who were willing to
sacrifice principle and the honest convic-
tions of lifetime for the glittering bau-
BILE of popular campaign motto, stood
stolidly by and watched the old Demo-
cratic party go to ruin by indorsing all the
cranky ideas of the Populistic party, with
few anarchistic and revolutionary senti-
ments added by way of variety.
When the overanxious and not too scru-
pulous advocates OF success at any price"
allowed their party to venture in these
danger GUS regions they were blinded to
the ruin which threatened, and which
men OF finer sensibilities would have rec
ognized beforehand.
The furious demagogues, who, with in
suit and contumeIy, drove from the Chi
cago convention all men who would not
agree with them and Mr.. Bryan on the
financial question, could not foresee
that they were inviting defeat instead of
securing victory. Yet so it is.
They fnd themselves without sufficient
funds to pay the legitimate expenses of
the campaign because their former fnan-
ciers and supporters are now arrayed
against them.
The state of the Organized Democratic
party in California illustrates the condi-
tion of that party throughout the country.
Bereft of the brainy, resourceful men of
their party the shouting dem agogues are
everywhere struggling amid financial and
intellectual penury.
The Bryan men are dazed by this turn
of affairs. They are unable to understand
how others should be more obedient to the
ethics OF political life than they. 1t is a
hard lesson and it is being sorely pressed
upon the minds of the Bryanistic min
ions.
The old Democratic ship was somewhat t
weather-worn and storm beaten to be
sure, but it was still seaworthy to con-
siderable degree and with its former vet
eran crew, inspired by the principles which
had perpetuated it's existence for nearly a
century, it had fighting chance in the
Presidential battle now raging. With an
inexperienced pilot at the helm, with raw
lubbers aboard and with compass and
charts cast adrift, there is certainty of
disaster at the close of the voyage. So
far as the genuine Democrats of the ooun-
try are concerned the salvage from the
wreck will not be worth mentioning.
