Tho Hon. william J. Bryan Is gentle
MAN of leisure. and seems 20 have

says very sensible things The latest
from Air. watson is letter of March
Nh. in which ne pays his respects TO
President Mckinley. We content ourselves
with clipping two extracts, the first OF
which is as follows:
If Mr. Mckinley believes that any con-
siderable number of our people credit the
statement that duties upon foreign goods
comnol the foreigner 10 pay our taxes for
ms. he entirely undcrestmates the polit-
cal intelligence Of the average voter.
Mr. Watson never said a trucr thing.
Tho people have been educated I'm the
matter OF tariff not only by prccopt. hut
by four years OF experience. They un-
derstand the question thoroughly. end
they will not tolerate. if they can help,
another era Of McKinloyism. But the
President knows this without being told.
Here is the other extract:
II there was any clear meaning In the
verdict of last November. il was that
there should be no free and unlimited
coinage Of silver at the old ratio of l5 20 J.
Mr.. Watson is as candid as he IS scnsi-
bic. and ne gives in this little paragraph
another valuable hint to President Nc
Knley. The people ala decide cmphati-
cally against Tree silver. so-cllled inter-
national bimetallism and against all other
questions designed to keep alive the silver
agitation. The business men Of the country
fully realized the fact that ITS great need
was rest from agitation. They voted not
only against free silver. but against the
agitation OF the Question. Let President
Mckinley remember this when he talks
about international bimetarlsm.
