has written a letter to r. c. Wall. DEM
ocratic national committeeman from WIS
consin. announcing his support OF Bryan
and Sewall. He says that, while he Is
not In perfect harmony with certain
planks in the platform adopted at Chi
cago, he is soundly Democratic, and po-
sitively opposed TO the political ethics
advocated by the supporters of Mckin-
leyism BY the election of the repre-
sentative of the gold-bugs, Mr.. Doe does
not believe that the financial question
would be settled. On the contrary, it
would prolong the trouble. and continue TO
keep our commercial affairs in an un-
satisfactory condition, on the other
hand. If Mr. Bryan Is elected, It will
stop the feverish discussion. or at least
allow those who desire TO invest money
to decide upon their future plans. thus
restoring a business level.
