has adopted. but they are those who
desire the defeat of Mr.. Bryan. and
recognize in it a potent force in the
achievement of that result. But Mr..
Watson declares that his inclinations
run in the opposite direction, and, there
fore, he becomes an instrument, uncOn-
sciously or maliciousIy, in the hands of
his opponents. It may be that he is so
impregnated with .selfishness and SO
absorbed in ambition that he is obliv-
ious of the peril with which he menaces
his party. But in that event there
ought to be some one who could inlu-
ence him to reason to the end that the
danger for which he is responsible may
be averted.

HEWITT FOR M'KTNLEY.
The New York Democrat VIII Vote
for McKinIev.

New York, Sept. LEX Mayor Hew-
lit has not been sWerved in the least
from his intention of voting for McKin-
ley by the nomination of Palmer. He
said to a reporter today:
i announced the day after the adOp-
ton of the Chicago platform before
Bryan was nominated, that I would not
support the ticket, because regarded
the platform as destructive to Ameri-
cand industries and American interests
of all kinds. 1 said then, and I say
now, that shall vote for Mckinley and
Hobart have no sympathy with the
Republican ticket whatever, but I pro-
pose to use it as a club to destroy an
other party, which I think.if success
full, would ruin the government and
consequently destroy the prosperity of
the country.
My advice to every one is to vote for
Mckinley, because he is the best and
NOSE available means of beating Bryan
and his destructive party.
THE third ticket is all right, and I
should vote for it if there was posi-
b1hty OF eIecting it. Both men are good
men. As 1 see the situation now how
ever, shall cast my vote for Mckinley
and thus be sure that ii viii do good. -
Mr.. Hewitt is identified with many
business enterprises here, and, among
others, is president of the New JERSEY
Steel and Iron company.
Asked why so many of the steel and
iron mills were shutting down. Mr.. Hew-
lit answered:
The trouble with business is that
half Of the country wants to destroy the
industries of the other half
The Organizes want to DESTROY can
ital.
Hence capital shrfnks, and people
become afraid to invest
In a word, the present stagnation is
due to the silver craze"
But how do you interpret the shut
ting down of so many iron and steel
mills 2'
Want of orders was the laconic re-
ply
What causes thfs?"

tation with the directors of his bank
says the silver agitation has greatly
scared investors in Europe and caused
an absolute discOntinUance of mortgage
investments in America for the present
The above company has been Ioaning
large sums of money, mainly on farm
lands in the central and northwestern
counties of Minnesota. While these in
vestments have so far been very salts
factory in every respect the directors
have concluded to await further devel-
Opments and to negotiate no new loans
for the present.
Mr.. Jungeblut has been directed to
solicit in the meantime applications for
loans to an extent of S1O0, 000 to be ac-
cepted the day after Mckinley has been
elected, and to continue the negotiation
of loans on an extended basis after said
election, but in the event of Bryan be-
ing elected to enforce the payment of
all maturing loans and to withdraw en-

All loans made by this company are
made payable in United States gold of
the present standard of weight and fine
ness, as has been the practice of nearly
all mortgage banks during recent years.
