The Wilkesbarre Pa. Leader thinks
the bait thrown out by Mckinley in
his letter OF accepts nee to catch the
silver men is not of a kind that will
attract; that they will naturally say,
and with truth, that as the only dif-
ference between NICK inley and Bryan
on the silver question Is, that one
favors the sanction Of foreign nations,
while the other believes In beginning
reform at home, the sentiments OF
Bryan come closer to the American
idea than those OF Mckinley.
