MIR. BYNUM'S ADVICE.

/ \ the chairmanship of the national committee of the sound money Democrats, has given tc the members of that organization sound advice the they should follow in this campaign. He points out that all signs lead to the conclusion that unless the fused Slvere and Populist factions are thoroughly beaten this year they will take com pete control of the Democratic party and two years from now will reaffirm the Chicago platform and re- nominate Bryan
 From these premises, which are hardly to be dis puted, MT. Bynum draws the conclusion that it IS the duty of all gold Democrats to assist in utterly de feating the Bryanites, and to do this he declares there is other way than that of supporting the Republican tickets. To give ineffective vote to independent candidates, to refrain from voting at all, would be indirect support to the fiat money fusionists. The only power capable of maintaining sound money in this country, and of completely crushing the hatsts, is that of the Republican party and all who favor honest finance vote for that party and its candidates.
 While the fusion candidates are saying but little of the silver question in this campaign and endeav- oring to lead the public away from it and all other national issues, there abundant evidences that they are still welded to Bryanism, and that if by their evssive trickery they attain any kind of success in the coming elections they will use all the power prestige and influence it gives them to strengthen the silver factions for another disturbing and harass- ! ing campaign the financial issue two years from now.
 The matter is that concerns the largest busi- ness interests of the nation. Upon the stability of our monetary system and the hrmness of our credit as nation depends commercial and industrial prosperity The silver agtations of the past seriously injured almost every form of business in the United States All sections felt the evil effects of the u1- certainty caused in financial circles, and hardly any class of citizens escaped without suffering either direct indirect loss from them. | The complete defeat of the Bryanite fusion is therefore, almost as important now as it was two years ago, and Mir. Bynum is right in advising his colleagues of the gold Democracy that the only way by which that be accomplished is for all sound . money men to vote the Republican ticket this fall | Carnegies project for establishing gun plant to rival Krupps feasible. There is no particular l reason why the German should practically have monopoly and anyhow this talk of peace and dis armament is such papable bluff to indicate that Krupp, unaided, will not be able to supply the de- mand for cannon.
 The idea of establishing a whipping-post is not pleasing, and yet there is other plan by which the wife-beater may be brought to sense of his error He usually beats his wife because she declines to sup port him, and to send him jail is to treat him to good living he is too lazy to earn. | To tamp blast to which there is attached burn ing fuse is a dangerous operation. Nevertheless, workmen will continue to do SO, and to get killed No person the victim desists from tempting fate
