greatly surprised at the action of the

New York Journal.)

While the Presidents message covers
questions which excite most interest are
the money question, the trust question
and the Philippine question AS | expect
to comment on the trusts more at length
in short time, shall confne my
self at this time to the first and last
questions mentioned. =
The President has placed the money
question first in order, and the Republi-
can Congress, by taking the matter up az
the very beginning of the session. indi-
cate that they regard it as first in inn
p0rtance.
Certainly the money question cannot
be dead when in legislation it takes
precedence over a question involving the
principles of our government and the
rights of millions of people with whom
we are at war.
If the Presidents message can be ac-
cepted as representing the sentiment of
his party, the Republicans have now
dropped the mask of international BIZ
metallism and have, adopted the Wall
Street ideas of finance without limita-
ton or qualification. Most of the advo-
Gates of bimetallism believed the Re-
publican platform promise of interna-
tional bimetallism to be delusion and a
snare, and for this reason a large number
of sincere bimetallists left the Republi-
can party in 90 and have not returned.
A HOPE" FOR THE WEST.
On the 9th of June, just before the
meeting of the last Republican Ma
tional Convention, the Chicago Times
Herald, whose editor has been conspicu.

tanned the following editorial:

selves If their plains and valleys were
not rich and inviting?
Has not covetousness always resort
cd to some plausible pretext for the
employment of force!
The President insists that we could
not protect them from outside interior
ence without involving our Government
in great danger. Have we not protect
ed the republics of Central and South
America from outside interference?
We must deal with the Philippine
question according to American princi-
pies or cease to be a moral factor in
the progress of the world.

agreement is shifty and futile. 1t de-
ceives nobody, because everybody knows
first, that there is not the slightest pos
sibility of an international agreement at
any ratio; and, second, that if such an
agreement were formally entered into,
no government could be bound to abide
by it day longer than its own industrial
and commercial interests would appear
to warrant it."
After the convention had adopted a
platform pledging the Republican party
to promote an international agreement for
the restoration of the free coinage of
silver the Times-H Herald said:
''Thc qualifying words used by the
committee pledging the party to endeavor
to promote an international agreement
are intended to strengthen the platform
from the political point of view, without
in any way weakening it as a frank
and fearless declaration for the gold
standard. AS it is and has been the
Republican policy to promote interna-
national bimetallism, and as such BIZ
metallism is earnestly desired by almost
every one in the country of both parties,
nothing is lost and something is gained
by giving the Western Republicans ray
