ORDER OF TO-DAY'S PARADE.
ORGANIZATIONS WHICH WILL MAKE UP THE LONG LINE
OF SOUND MONEY MARCHERS


Under bright or leaden sky. in sunshine or rain.
the Sound Money parade In this city to-day 10
expected to be the greatest and grandest polit-
ical demonstration of the kind ever witnessed.
only In the United States OF America, where the
voter Is king and only In New-York in a Presi-
Dental campaign coulc such demonstration
be possible. In the numbers OF It's marching
battalions the great procession OF citizens that
is to pass up Broadway, through Waverley Place
ard up Fffth-a to Fortieth-st. will surpass
the great Sound Money parade OF four years
ago. The best citizenship of the metropolis will
be in the line. In the ranks will be men of
every business that makes the city rich and in
fuential. Promoters of great Industrial enter
prses and heads of large business firms will
march in the ranks with clerks. statesmen and
workmen all moved by the same loyalty to the
principles of their organization
Large the marching host will be. still larger
will be the number of witnesses of the parade.
More than million people, including the par
ents wives and children Of in the ranks
will form the crowds that will watch the parade
from one end OF the route to the other. There
will be plenty of opportunity for everybody in
the city to the parade. on account OF the
length of time 1t takes to march 10000 men
over single route. The parade will start at
10 a. m. ana will continue for ten hours. per-
haps longer.
SEATS FOR THOUSANDS PROVIDED.
Seats for several thousand persons have been
provided on the reviewing stands at Madison
Square, near the Dewey Arch. and there will
be many private stands in Broadway and In
Fifth-ave while the window spaces OF the
buildings along the route will be filled with
spectators but those who may be able to sit
and view the great army OF Republican voters
on the march will be few in number compared
with the spectators who will fill the sidewalks.
The people who stand up TO the parade will
have one advantage persons who sit on
crowded stands. They can go to their homes for
rest when they get tired, and then go back
and sec more of the parade.
The crowds who watch the army pass by will
be able to distinG ush each division. Large and
easily observed banners VIII be carried at the
head Of sections showing plainly TO what group
the marchers are affiliated. There will be no
confusion in location of friends in the ranks.
This feature has been arranged by mutual
agreement. because OF the necessity OF demarka-
tion. By the official order of Grand Marshal
McCook, the rear Of each club will be marked
by banner bearing the name Of the club which
has passed

Sir: l have met numbers OF young men too young
to have voted in 1886 asking the real meaning
Of the silver in the Democratic platform and how
1t could affect them personally If Mr.. Bryan were
elected. and think few remarks may not be in
opportune before election.
Mr.. Bryans pet free silver at the ratio 16 to l
is misleading, because free silver makes any
fixed ratio at once impossible unless this country

ship could reach It, AS the is the basis of our
planetary system. is gold the basis all values

business world look upon the coming election
and make a decision IN way only. Four years

interests Of our country-whether should accept
the silver platform offered by the Democratic party.
with all that it implied, whether we should be
pledged to the gold standard and a sound money
