organization, while Michigan votes
are also expected. 1t will further be
noticed that Nebraska is figured in the
silver column and this is because,
while there is contest the silver men
say that the will see that the gold
standard men are not seated. 1t is the
security Ia this preponderance of
votes that makes the silver leaders
confident Of ultimate victory. The
decision upon the abrogatiou Of the
twO-thirds vote on nominations may
be delayed until after temporary and
permanent organization and until just

4 Damaging Confession.

Elk. Secretary Whitney is one OF the
most prominent leaders OF the gold
forces in the Democratic party, bat he
has recently made a statement which
is not calculated 10 strengthen his
cause with men who investigate ques
tionS for themselves rather than ac
cept the platitudes of parties or the
dicta of leaders. Mr.. Whitney says:
From the discussion of the last 20
years it has come to pass that, among
the persons in Europe who are trained
recognized scientists upon monetary
and economic questions, scarcely one
is not, at this moment, advocating the
disability of the joint standard as
the real solution of the monetary diff.
culties OF the world This includes
every professor engaged in teaching or
lecturing on these subjects in the uni
versities of Great Britain. ''Recog-
nized scientists upon monetary sys-
TENS lnd economic questions" and
every professor engaged in teaching
in Great Britain" agree that the real
solution of the money problem lies in
the recognition of the free and un-
limited coinage of silver. The differ
ence between Mr.. Whitney and the
Democratic party is more apparant
than real-merely a question OF expeol-
ency.-Times and Democrat
