Aren't Bryan and his friends making
a great mistake by continuing the dis
eussion of the silver question at this
time? 1t Is nearly four years until the
next presidential election. and the peo-
pie can learn whole lot about silver
and the effect of cheap money upon
wages and savings in four years. They
learned much that Bryan didn't want
them 10 know during the four short
months of the last campaign. 1t is mo-
ticeable that in the states where the
question was most discussed the ma
joritics against Bryan we're heavy or
his majorities were unexpectedly
small.
If the siiYerites will think of the
great amount of work done in the
states west Of Pennsylvania, east of Col
orado and north of tennessee and re-
fleet upon the result of the election.
they will. If they are wise and want to
win in 1900, conclude u drop educa-
tional work and TO proceed on some less
dangerous line. If Bryan and his
friends would stop talking about sill

If our hard times should unfortunately
continue. Bryan might step out few
days before the 1900 election and say:
Il told you So and a majority of the
voters, without having given the mat
ter much thought. might conclude that
perhaps the .crime Of 1873" was re-
sponsible for the lack of prosperity.
But If they study the question for four
whole years they will be certain that
neither silver nor my kind Of cheap
money ever brought prosperity to any
country. though they have often
brought hard times. The wage earn
