WOULD MAKE SILVER ISSUE.
Republicans Would Sidetrack AL
Other Matters.

Canton o. July 1.-THE campaign OF
1900 in Canton will not be duplicate
of the campaign of 1896 President Mchin-
lev will not make speeches to delegates
who may visit Canton. even II he should
remain here all the time.
He says that four years ago ne was u
private citizen and the candidate OF ms
party and felt justified In taking an active
part in the campaign. Now he Is presi-
dent and feels that he should give his at
tention to the many questions or govern
ment He will not make speeches from
the front porch to visiting delegations.
Postmaster General Smith. when asked
today along what lines he expected the
campaign TO be fought. said:
Money Wanted as the Issue.
"I think the contest will settle down
to virtually two issues, one of these. prob
ably the chief one. Will be the currency
question. The democratic convention had
made 1t so. They refused to accept the
verdict of four years ago. They have pro-
claimed their stand for silver and the
battle of four years ago on that question
will have to be fought over. There Is
no such issue as Imperialism. That is
a fiction. There can be no Imperialism In
a free country. But the question of up
holding and strengthening the govern
ment in dealing with the issues growing
out of the war and in administering the
new people brought under our care ana
protection is an important issue and will
figure conspicuously in the campaign
Trusts a Business Question.
ITO what extent will the trust question
enter into the campaign
mot TO great extent: In my opinion,
that is a business question rather than
a political issue and the republican party
has declared in favor of such legislation
as will correct any evils that may exist
and control harmful combinations as
clearly and as forcibly as any party can
In honesty and fairness"
"Do you think the Chinese question will
enter into the campaign
mo. do not; It cannot be an issue.
The government is doing no more than
any government must do to protect its
people We have emphatically and con-
tinuously disclaimed any intention to do
anything else. The note of the state de-
partment bearing on this subject has been
well received by the people of this country
and by the representatives of the pow
ers."
