BRYAN'S QUESTIONS.

In 1896 the Republican party prom
ised TO promote international bimetal-
lism and Mr.. Mckinley. in his letter of
acceptaI ce, pledged himself to carry
out that promise. If the gold standard
has been Il benefit to the United States,
why should the Republican party try
to abandon it and substitute the double
standard by international agreement
As soon as Mr.. Mckinley was elected
he asked Congress for authority to ap-
point q commission to visit Europe and
secure the aid of the leading CONNER
cial nations of Europe in abandoning
the gold standard. If the gold stand
ard is n blessing why did Mr.. McKin-
ley send Il commission to Europe TO get
rid of it?
y Republican Congress, by an almost
unanimous vote, appropriated 100000
to pay the expenses of the monetary
commission. If the gold standard is
the standard of civilization, why did
the Republican party spend 100000 in
trying to get rid of it?
The French government expressed Il
Willingness to restore bimetallsm by
international agreement and joined our
commissioners in asking ilngland's CO.
operation. If the gold standard has
been a blessing to France why is
France willing to abandon its gold
standard and substitute international
bimetallism?
Within
reilhstag has adopted a resolution de-
claring in favor of international bimet-
allism. If the gold standard has been
Il blessing to Germany why was the
popular branch of the German assem-
bly, willing to abandon the gold stand
ard and substitute international bimet-
allism?
The gold standard has been indorsed
by bankers, hnanciers and chambers
of commerce, but it had never been in
dorsed by the producers of wealth in
any nation in the world. Will the Re
publicans say that the producers of
wealth do not know what is good for
them, or should only financiers be con-
suited in monetary legislation?
The monetary commission remained
III England for three months. and the
press dispatches reported that the COM
missiOners We're confident of obtaining
some concession from England. On
the 22d day of last September the bank
ers of London Joined in unanimous pro-
test against bimetallism, and the En-
glish government has now refused to
make the concession for which our
commissioners asked. Does this not
support our contention that the gold
standard is advocated by the capital
istic classes of the world?
The Republican party, in its plat
form of 1896, after pledging itself to
international bimetallism, declared that
the gold standard must be maintained
until the leading commercial nations
joined in international bimetallism. Is
1t well to thus allow the leading COM
mercial nations of Europe to dictate
the financial policy of the United

That Vote of WCoufideuce.W


If the Republican administration an
ticipated a vote of confidence, the re-
cent election must have proved Sc
we're disappointment.
Last year Mckinley had the magnifi-
cent plurality of 26S,574 votes in the
State of New York. This year the En-
pire State went Democratic by a plu-
rality of 53,24S. a change of 175,000
votes shows what the people of the
State of New York think of the Repub-
lican administration. New York City
has reversed a plurality of $1,000 for
Mckinley to a Democratic plurality of
100000. Republican measures are evi-
IDENTIFY not popular in the State of New
York. nor are they approved by the
citizen. of the greater city of New
York.
However, Ohio ought to have proved
loyal to the party which sent her hon
ored son, Mckinley, to Washington
as President of the United States. But,
alas for the hopes of the grand old Par
~! the Buckeye State has reduced her
Republican majority from $4,000 in
1896 to 10000 in 1897, and Hanna, who
stands as the representative of McKin-
ley, has an excellent chance of remain
ing at home as Il private citizen instead
Of re-entering the United States Sen
ate.
There is no necessity of referring to
Kentucky, Virginia or Nebraska. 1t
would be cruel to harrow up the feel
ings of Republicans by calling atten-
ton to the disasters which have be-
fallen their party in those States. Tar
lift reform" monetary reform" I'm
ion Pacific reform" Cuban reform" :"
have been weighed in the balance and

is doomed to inevitable defeat in 1900.
