strange that the Mexican leople
like Bryan. He IS trying to lDjure
them ccording to free silver
reasoning. The free silverites
claim that Mexico's cheap dollar
acts in such : way as to protect
Mexican products from outside
competition, and enables Mexico to
produce cheaper than countries
can that pay for labor on the basis
of the gold doller. Now Bryan
says that the free silver coinage
that he is working for in the

Of silver so that it's commercial

lean silver dollar will be worth a
