Mr., William J, Bryan
writes from Lincoln Neb.,
to the editor of the New
York Journal as fol-
lows;
| might reply to your in
quiry by saying that there is
now entire harmony within
the Democratic party, The
members of the party were
never more united in purpose
nor more Jealous than at the
present time. Neither IS
there lack Of harmony among
the boiling Democrats.
They seem just as deter
mined to carry out kepubl1-
can polices as they were dur
ing the campaign. If, how
ever, you mean by your ques-
ton to ask whether there is
any common ground IL p o n
which the two Democratic
organizations can meet, l
answer no.
Webster dehl2s a party
as a number of persons united
in opinion and aiming to in
fluence or control the action
of the community. Agree
nent in opinion is the essen.
tlal thing IN a party. No
photographer has yet defined
a party to be a union of two
hostile factions, each deter
mined by the question which
is paramount in the minds Of
the poole.
The regular Democrats in
their last National conven-
tionoadeclared the money ques
ton to be the paramount is
sue. The boiling Democrats
both in their minority report
at Chicago and in their plat
form at indianapolis, recog.
nl2ed the money question to
be the paramount issue.
The regular Democrats an.
nounced their unalterable
opposition to recommendation,
describing it as an I'M Ameri-
can and anti-American 6nan-
cial policy, They demanded
the restoration of the free
and unlimited coinage Of
both gold and silver at the
paesent legal ratio of 16t to /.
without the aid or consent
of any other nation. They
declared that the silver dol
lar should be a legal tender
equally with gold for all
debts, public and private,
and insisted that the Govern
ment should retain the right
to rcdaem coin Ohl,votionS ia

means a preservation of ex-
listing conditions. In other
words, harmony between the
regular Democrats and the
boilers means the maintenance
of the gold standard as long
as that harmony lasts.
Not only does harmony
mean the temporary main
teanance of the gold standard
but it gives to the gold Dem
ocrats a party standing
which will make them more
potent for evil in the next
contest. Much of the harm
they did in 1896 grew out Of
the fact that they used the
Democratic name for t h e
purpose OF deception.
II the boiling organization
is left alone, it will be power
less to deceive by the time
we enter upon another nation
al contest, If, however, the
two organizations patch up a
temporary peace, the dis
tlnctiOn between them will
become to some eXteut OBJ
liberated, and the same fraud
can be perpetrated in 1900
which was perpetrated in
1896.
The regular Democrats
have everything to lose and
nothing to gain by making
concessions to those who de-
sire to use the Democratic
name without supporting the
Democratic principles.
l have only spoken of the
difference which exists upon
the money question. Next
to the money question in i'm
portance is the question of
trusts. Many of the gold
Democrats are so tied up
with the trusts and monopo-
lies Of the country that even
if they were with us they
would be on embarrassment
rather than an aid to the po-
sltion taken by the regular
Democrats upon the money
question, aud the question of
trusts is in harmony with the
doctrine that the Govern
ment should guarntee equal
rights to all and special
privileges to none, and 1t will
not contribute to the ultl-
mate success Of the party to
attempt to conciliate those
whose instincts or business
connections lead them to re-
pudiate the fundamental
Democratic principle, name
", equally before the law.

paign is nearing settlement,
and hardly any noticeable
Improvement of the wretched
times is manifest. The tide
will soon set in strongly
against the Republican par
ty unless the depression of
business is altered. Idleness
and want breed a bitter dis
content which will never be
overcome until there are ami
pie cmployments.
"The foes that America
has to fear are not the sullen
savage Turks nor the insur-
rectionists of Cuba nor the
territory grasping British,
but they are our own patient
and heart-tired people, our
own suffering much promised
people, who, betrayed and
and disheartened. no longer
have faith in their party, and
will turn to any leadership
that offers promise Of better
times, believing that worse
times can never come than
those now existing, It is a
terrible thingto observe pub
lie sentiment adrift and un-
Captalned and the people
sweeping away from their
affection to the old party.
"The young men are growing
up Indifferent to Republican prin-
ciples, with no respect for par
ties Of broken platforms, who
use national and state patronage
in payment Of election contracts.
The political religion of the nation
is falling lower and lower under
insults to intelligence, violation
of law, reckless daring Of unscru-
pulous bosses. There are i'm
measurabl debths Of misfortune
for this nation and state if the
continued use Of corporation and
public money and the dispensa-
ton Of Federal and State patron
age continue to be controlled in
the interest Of ofliceholders to
hold Office for themselves and to
benefit those who desire to keep
government contracts or main
tain particular projections through
the money given by which cleo
tons are decided.
""There will most assuredly
como a day when there will be a
mighty revolt and resistance, re-
sulting in a revolution that will
give birth to new political party,
Laws continual despised and dis
regarded, legislation conceived
for Matchmaking purpose, specu-
lation by public officials in trust
and other stocks, while tariff and

tcrat, Col. Wat Hardin, was
a candidate for Governor of
kentuckv, tVO years ago,
many gold democrats would
not support him because they
! feared that his election would
strengthen the silver cause
and there is no evidence
that the gold Democrats
have lost any of their sensi-
tiveness on this subject.
Is it probable that the sill,
yer Democrats will exert
themselves to give political
position and influence to men
who will use their position
and influence againrt bimet-
allsm in the next great battle?
When | say that political
| Friendship is impossible be-
tween the regular Democrats
and boilers, l do not mean to
say that there is, or ought to
be, any personal hostility
between the members of the
two organizations,
On the other hand, | affirm
that there should be the
broadcast charity and toler-
ance. Republicans a n d
Democrats have in the past
mingled together in society
and in business circles, al
though they have voted
against each other at the
polls. In like manner there
can be the frlendliest rela-
tions between the regular
Democrats and the boilers
l3at there can be no harmonl-
Gus political association be.
tween them.
The regular Democrats
and the boilers now have two
seperate and distinct party
organizations. No matter
which is regarded God and
which as Mammon, no one
can serve both. 1t is as i'm
possible for a person to be-
long to both Democratic or
CARNATIONS as it is for a per-
son to be both a Democrat
and a Republican at the same
time. No Democrat who be-
Ilieves that the gold standard
is a conspiracy formed among
the money changers for the
enslavement Of the producer
of wealth can act with the
gold Democrats, and no gold
Democrat who believes that
the restoration Of silver viii
ruin the country can act with
the regular Democrats,
If any who now believe IN
free coinage hereafter be-
come converted to the gold
standard, it will be an easy
matter for him to transfer
his allegiance to the boiling
organization; if any who now
believe in the gold standard
become convinced Of their err
ror, the way is open for their
return to the regular organi-
cation, but any attempt at
compromise will not only be
futile, but will be disaster

The Democrats who sup.
ported the Chicago platform
are now as firmly in favor OF

money question as they
were during the campaign
If any charge has taken
place, their devotion h a

The adoption Of the gold
standard by Japan and Peru
has increased the strain upon
gold and emphasized the
warnings uttered by the adj
vocates of free silver during
the campaign, There is
nothing to indicate that the

the greenbacks aid Treasury

An attempt has been made
in some quarters to push the
tariff question to the front
but | do not think that this
offer can be successful. The
tariff question is no more i'm,
portant now than it was dur.
ing the campaign, and it was
not important enough then
to keep the gold Democrats
within the fold. To be- sure
some Of the gold Democrats
are criticising the Dingley
bill, but the moment the Re-
publicans turn their atten-
ton TO the money question
all complaining will cease,
and the gold democrats will
be found in the front ranks
fighting shoulder to shoulder
with the Republican leaders,
If the Republicans attempt
any further degradation OF
silver, the gold Democrats
will be their allies. If they
attempt to retire the green
backs and Treasury notes,
directly or indirectly, they
can rely upon the earnest
cooperation Of the gold Dem
ocrats.
Both the regular Demo.
Gratis and the gold Democrats
know that the money ques'
ton will be paramount
in 1900, and it is folly to e&'
