In sending their forces to China
the powers proposed first OF all. TO de

this aim has been attained. II Is now

Penetrated with the spirit which in

points, which Il submits as a basis for

INDIANAPOLIS. Oct s.-The execu-
tive COMMITTEES Of the Gold Democratic
party tonight issued a long address to
the members of the party.
The address attacks Bryan bitterly
and insists that silver Is the issue. The
address concludes:
Mr.. Bryan seeks power by an appeal
to the anti-expansion and antitrust
sentiment Of the people The difficult
ties Of our external policy were unfore-
seen as their solution IS at present un-
revealed. The evil nf the trusts has
no party parentage and win be reme-
,diel b. the combined intelligence Of our
parties. -
without minimizing the perils of
either, We affirm that no greater evil
can tefall our government than the
Impairment Of its vigor. the iestrue-
tlon Of aur credit ard the ruin of our
Industries which Mr. Bryan is specially
pledged to effect II he gets into power.
Therefore we appeal to our coun-
'trvmen again t. avert disaster from
their country by his defeat"
