The Republican party will disclaim
against trusts, now that trusts have be-
come 80 numerous aud unpopular that
II is becoming n political necessity for
them 10 do 50. The men who oppose
the gold combination aud the trusts are
undoubtedly Church members, and as
such have no objection to retaining the
eighth commandment, Thou shalt not
steal IN it, place in the Bible, nor 10
the preachers continuing to dcnounce
theft and sins in general, but their con-
tribuiions would be Withdrawn ut once
II the particular ,heils that they COM
nit were pointed out and denounced
and the congregations admonishcd that
/ was necessary for their salvation to
prevent them from further stealing aud
inform them how to do 1t. So Il is
with trusts. They care no more for
defamation against trusts than they do
for the commandment a.. hon shalt not
steal, " OF for the denunciaiion Of sins
in general so long as no specific meas
ures are proposed that will interfere
with the trusts.
The gold standard under which Il C
money volume shrinks as il is extended
over rev territory, causing the worlds
price level to constantly fail, Is the ia
Their Of the trusts IN general. The re-
publican party will denouncc trusts in
general terms, but they will nominate
i0E Office men acceptable TO the gold
trust, and the gold trust will contrib
ute FINDS to secure the election Of fs
candidates. A high tariff fosters trusts
and robs the people, yet the Republi.
can parry will denounce trusts and at
the same time pledge itsNli to perpctu-
ate trust breeding tariff. Railway

That effort met with failure ~ II should

party cannot afford to make any one
issue paramount, MS one class Of Dem

and freedom from trusts the most i'm.
portant issue; with another class, in
the great laborius districts, government
by injunction will force aside all other
issues, and others will regatI imperial

be true tn a measure, for all these are
important questions and must be met
but that Is no reason why the party's
position on silver, so positively affirmed
by the Chicago platform, should be

ratio. which silence IN this point would
