FAIR PROPOSITION,

Among other interesting political Cos
sip, we read in the New York corrcspon-
denco Of the st, Louis Republic that:
"The labor leaders are talking nov about
holding monster mass meeting in
Union Square and inviting Bryan and
Mckinley to participate in a joint }ebate
for the satisfaction Of the workin1muu ci
this city" 1t is to be hoped thia propo-
sition viii be carried out. Their is no
good reason why th3 candidates should
not appear together before great audi
