THE ISSUE OF 1000.
cold standard Democrat WIN Have
90 Vote for ~ Republican
Again.

The views of Senator J. X. Jones,
chairman OF the national democratic
executive committee, are simply in
the line of national development.
The great issue before the people OF
any country is that of the greatest in
ternal importance, In the shrinkagc OF
values which have taken place in this
country during the last 20 years the
people have recognized the hand of ad-
verse financial legislation. According
as the currents of money supply were
cut off, paralysis spread into every line
of business, first attacking the produc
tive Industries and the farm. and finally
destroying the prosperity Of cities and
large financial institutions. Spurts OF
prosperity have come to the country be-
tween times. owing to the wonderfully
recuperative character of our country,
but still, in spite Of abundant nature
and intense individual industry, no per
manent prosperity has come.
The political parties which started
out handicapped 10y the leadership of
Wall street on both sides have finally
taken position as to what the remedy
must be. The republican party, after
a period of lodging under the cover of
international agreement has finally
drifted away into the extreme gold
standard policy. The democratic
party, having effectually shaken of
the "od men of the sea-" who were
weighing it down, has declared for a
wholesale and thorough financial re-
| form, which can only be brought about
by n return TO the money OF the cousti-
! tuition. Mountaineering the intrench-
ments of the money power within its
ranks, il succeeded in casting them
out and polling nearly 1000 900 votes,
That such a fight as this should have
been waged. with the result Of attract
ing 50 large a vote, is evidence Of toe
strong a position 10 be surrendered az
The bidding of the enemy. or in con
sequence of bogus issues set up by the
enemy, and is not for ore moment 10 be |
considered. The democratic party, in !
national convention, has declared its |
faith. which has been Endorsed by a |
larger vote than was ever cast for
democratic issue before. When the peo-
pie meet again in national convention
they will meet with fun knowledge of |
their strength and Of the Righteousness
Of their cause, and it j. safe to say that
they will meet the enemy in the cam
paign Of 1900 on the same ground upon
which they were met in 1896, and that
they will win.
Chairman Jones. therefore. in max.
ing the statement which he does, does
not need the gift OF prophecy for 20 de-
claring. because the issues are new SO
fixed as to be beyond the power Of any
man to change them. Those who want
the gold standard will have TO vote for
the republican nominee TO get it, while
the democratic platform will stand as
already written.-Atlsuta Cou,titu-
