can insidious attempt is made
to create a prejudice against the
advocates Of q safe and sound
currency by the insinuation,
more or less directly made, that
they belong to financial and bust
ness classes, and are therefore not
only out Of sympathy with the
common people Of the land, but
for selfish and wicked purposes
are willing to sacrifice the inter
ests of those outside their circle.
aIt is a time for the American
people to reason together as mem
bers Of a great nation which can
promise them a continuance Of
protection and safety only 50 long
as it's solvency is unsupported, its
honor unsullied and the sound
ness Of it's money unquestioned.
"The discredit or depreciation
in .the financial centers Of any
form Of money in the hands of
the people is a signal Of immedi-
ate loss everywhere.
eff reckless discomfort and
wild experiment should sweep
our currency from its safe sup
port, the most defenseless Of all
who suffer in that time Of distress
and national discredit will be the
poor, as they reckon the loss in
their scanty support, and the
laborer or workingman as he sees
the money he has received from
his toll shrink and shrivel in his
hand when he tenders it for the,
r-ecessaries Of the humble home"

John S. Green Of louisville
wrote to the former President in
quiring il he has changed his
views on the financial question
al expressed in his letter to Chi
cago business men on April 13,
1895.
Mr. Cleveland's reply to Mr..
Green is as follows:
"Buzzard's Bay, Oct. 4, 1900.
John S. Green, Esq. Dear Sir: I
have received your letter, inclos-
ing q copy Of my letter written
more than five years ago to the
business men Of Chicago. T had
not seen it in a long time, but it
seems to me I could not state the
case better at this time If I
should try. I have not changed
my opinion as therein expressed
In the least. Yours truly,
"Grover Cleveland"
The letter was written Eve
years ago to William T. Baker,
George N. Smith, John o. Roche,
T. w. Harvey, David Kelly and
Harry s. Robbins, in response to
an invitation to visit Chicago in
the interest of sound money.

he never will say, he has aban-
doned it. He would not abandon
it at Kansas City.
I'll have said lIr. Bryan is an
honest, il not a practical, man.
What he says he believes he can
do, and will never falter in his
attempt to do it.
NHe is a dreamy idealist. He
talks and acts and believes, If
he Were President, by a wave OF
his magic wand, as 'twere, he
can make a desert blossom; that
he can do away with want and
misery, and make all his sub
jects prosperous and happy. In
other words, that he is possessed
Of the mysterious power that can
make the world IN Utopia, il you
give him a chance.
such a man is a delightful
companion, an estimable mem
Der of society, but a wild bull in

dangerous to the safety Of the
crockery than such would be to
the safety Of the State, if en-
trusted with the management Of
affairs.
"The country is prosperous;
money is plenty and good; inter-
est has dropped to 5 per cent; the
market Of u abundant crops has
furnished the money to discharge
old mortgages and build new
homes; labor finds employment in
Y State, and the laborer fixes
the wages. Why should you de-
sire q change, unless 1t be for
the betterP And that better

PROMINENT GERMAN
HOPES FOR BRYAN's DEFEAT

Louis Windmuller, the New York
merchant, who in previous cam
paigns has been recognized as the
exponent of the views OF a large
number Of citizens Of German de-
scent and who up to the disruption
of the Democratic party by Bryan
was q prominent gold Democrat and
a contributor to the literature for
former campaigns, has announced
that his views regarding the fitness
Of the two presidential candidates
have in no wise changed from those
he entertained in 1896.

said Mr.. Windmuller. II voted for
Mr.. Mckinley, believing lnat to vote
for third party candidates was to
throw away a vote. I can say now
that have never been sorry for
making the choice I did then. T be-
lieve now as I did then that Bryan's
election would be national calami-

Of the currency, and the Democrae.c
managers may boast all they want
to-, but the fact is that a vast ma
jority Of the German-born voters
regard this question as the para
mount one, beside which imperial
ISM so-called, cuts no figure. The
trust question is hardly worth talk
ing about for the reason that both
parties have concluded that trusts
are bad things. l regard MI. Schurz
as deluded respecting the Philip
pines. The Philippine question is SO
much on his mind that it has pre-
cluded him from looking impartial
ly at the situation in its entirety.
His judgment, in fact, seems to have
been completely overloaded by it.
II consider Mr.. Bryan a danger
u man for the reason that he seeks
to arouse class hatred and panders
to socialistic and populistic tenden-
cies. He should not be elected, and
tits the duty of every business man,
every working man and of all who

BRYAN'S DEFEAT WILL
PRESERVE NATIONAL HONOR

Edward S. Bragg, soldier,
statesman and lifelong Demo
crat, came out squarely Tor Pres
ldent Mckinley in a speech at the
Pabst Theater, Milwaukee, on
October 18th. he did more. He
exhorted the Gold Democrats, at
whose solicitation he publicly
made known his views, to do like
wise as q step essential to. the
preservation OF national honor.
General Bragg said, among
other things:
1.-THE heart Of this great peo-
pie has always beat loyal to the
government when the war trump
sounded, and has never tolerated,
and will never tolerate, encour-
agement to a public enemy, while

GERMAN PAPER LEAVES
4 BRYAN

The German Tribune, Of Leav-
enworth, Kansas, the only Ger
man paper published in that
State, has left Bryan's standard.
The reasons for the change are
that the Tribune believes in pros
perity and sound money, and
that the cry of imperialism is
false. The Tribune supported
Bryan four years ago. It has O
circulation Of $4,000 weekly all
over the State, and 5000 daily

closed O'Leary's place Of business,
that he would quit the business for
ever, and that as it was the object of
the league to stop the sale Of Liquor,
and not TO get blood he, with Mr..
Waneman, had agreed not to prosecute
O'Leary if he would quit the business.
He believed that O'Leary meant to
keep his promise, and when he re-
ceiyed the letter above referred to, he
simply wrote to O'Leary that he had
better leave the town,~ss that would
be the best way TO ss.tle the matter.
He stated that he 'a. signed the let
ter Jack as O'Leary had told him to
sign that way. He said that he re-
turned the 500 to OLeary last week,
and would have done it ait any time
had 0'Ieary called for it. He stated
that the reason that he asked that
States Attorney Bangs be excluded
from the grand jury room at the time
he was indicted was on account of
bad blood between himself and Bangs,
and that he had not mentioned the
fact that O'Leary had left the 800 at
his house while Bangs was present at
first for that reason, but that he had
intended doing SO later.
States Attorney Bangs began a most
searching cross-examinatiol, when
Mr.. Bosard objected, as he did not wish
his client to say anything that would
incriminate him in connection with
the other indictments. A very lively
tit between the attorneys ensued.

LEADS THE WORLD,
Land Office Statistics Shows that the
State of North Dakota Leads NE
the World.
Great Profit to the Government from the
Fees Of the Various Land
Offices in the State

North Dakota leads the UNITED
States in land Office business. Tn.
report of the secretary of the interior
for the last fiscal year shows that one,
fifth of the entire number Of home
stead entries made in the United States
for the last fiscal year were made il
North Dakota. This shows the ex.
tent to which government land is be
ing taken up in North Dakota ane
goes to explain the large increase III
population shown by the recent cen
sus.
The land Office at Devils Lake fol
the last year did the greatest business
of any Office in the United States. The
receipts for the office for the year were
about $175,0OO. This immense bus
mess lis due largely to the vast immi-
grafton business done by the Great
Northern and the many settlers who
have taken up land along the line in
tie Devils Lake district:
The Minot office also did a big bus
mess, as the country in the Minot re
gion is being largely sought by set
tiers. Bismarck is we'll up on the
list Of business offices, and the receipts
from this Office for the past year were
large, the receipts showing a large ex-
Icass over andit1f S
The report of the secretary also
shows that the business done in land
Offices in North Dakota was profitable
TO the government. The total amount
of netrevenue to the government, over
and above salaries and expenses, from
the land offices in North Dakota for
the past fiscal year was S314,661 81.
This is an excellent showing for the
state.
The report of the secretary and the
figures cited IN it show that the tide
of immigration flowed stronger into
North Dakota than any other state in
the union. The coming year will also
snow an immense volume OF business
in the land Offices OF the state, as
many inquiries are already being re-
ceiyed concerning North Dakota land
and many settlers will take up land
the coming year.
