COMMENTS ON FIR. CLEyELAND,s
LETTER,

Mr. Cleveland is probably the only in
teilSent political observer of the hour
who has any doubt that the Chicago con-
yention will advocate and approve the
free, unlimited and independent coinage
OF silver.-Chicago Times-Herald.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-06-21

President Cleveland does not relish
the prospect for a battle between his
party and the opposition upon the finan-
cial issue. Stirred by the victory for
sound money at st. Louis he appeals
pathedcally to the anti-silver Democrats
TO arouse themselves and prevent the
listic suicide at Chicago.-Pittsburg Dis
patch.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-06-21

But the cheapest of all the cheap ut
terances in Mr.. Clevelands latest is this:
ut is a time for consultation and com
parison of views and those Democrats
who believe in the cause of sound money
should there Qn Chicago be heard and be
constantly in evidence
This is the first time in the history of
our country that a man occupying the
White House has stopped to issue a
formal call for BOOSTERS" to attend a
convention and bolster up a bad cause

Despite the indications thai the free
silver Democrats will have a large major
ity of the delegates at the Chicago con-

He urges Democrats who share his views
on the money question to make their in
