THE TWO ISSUES.
Free Silver Plank May Be
Ignored by Bryan.
BUT 1T IS NOT ABANDONED.
Dodge to Catch Voters, Both East
and West.
PROPHECIES OF 1895 PRoVEDFALsB

Brvan's Declaration OF War Four Years
Ago The Plutform Plank on Free
suvrr Stands us rarty Doctrine Re
suits OF Democratic victory Next
Fan Great Business Panic sur. 10
EniIow.
Everybody remembers the story of
the kentucky trapper who set his
trap so as to catch the coon "a comm
or u gOin'.' Tile Kansas City conven-
tion followed this historic example in
celebrating it's platform. 1t declared
opposition to national expansion to be
the paramount issue OF this cam
pagn. but took care to insert very
explicit demand for the immediate
adoption Of the free coinage of silver
at ii to /. Like the Kentucliian' S
trap, this is intended to catch eastern
men. who favor sound money but are
opposed to expansion, and on the
other hand to capture western voters,
who still cling TO free silver. but who
believe thoroughly in retaining the
Philippines. The eastern man is eX-
pected TO think of nothing but the
paramount issue" plank the western
man to have no eyes for anything but
the free silver issue.
This dodge is too transparent to
work. Four years ago William ]. Bry-
an made the following warlike declar-
alton: The Democratic party has
begun a war Of determination against
the gold standard We ask no quar-
ter; we give no quarter We shall
prosecute our warfare until there is
not an American citizen that dareS to
advocate the gold standard"
Now, a wor Of determination can
not stop until the thing warred on is
eX.rr1inated But the gold standard
is most certainly not eXtermnated;
on the contrary, it is stronger than
ever. 1t asks no quarter Of Mr. Bryan
and viii give none. The American
people may be deceived for time,
but The strong common sense, which
is national characteristic, leads
them to see very readily when the
ory is proved fallacious. Mr. Bryan
and the other prophets Of evil four
years ago declared that the gold
standard would cause prices TO fall
money to become scarce, interest rates
to rise, and the mortgage crop to
flourish
The facts, as demonstrated by ex-
perenre since then, are exactly the
opposite. The prices of all farm pro-
ducts and Of all manufactured articles
have risen We have more money in
the United States today than ever be
fore. In place Of being a debtor ma
tiuu. We are now the worlds creditor.
Within year we have taken Rus
sian loan and also a British one. In
tercst rates are lower than ever be-
fore. Mortgages have been paid off
with une&led rapidity, The peo.
pie are contented and prosperous.
In view of this condition, which
gives The lie direct to every assertion
Of the free silveritcs it is no wonder
that Mr Bryan is keeping silent on
that issue, But voters must remem-
ber that TO ignore a thing is not the
same as 10 abandon it, Mr. Bryan and
his party have not abandoned free
silver. They seek to win the presi-
dcncy and the house of representa-
tivcS on the bugaboo Of anti-imperial-
ism A Democratic victory which
would do this would he sure to give
them a majority Of the senate also.

ness. The traction company still con-
tinue to give the borough considerable
trouble over the switch which they put

emily think they can do as they like

passes to the councilnnen. The council
decided to give them five days to pi.t
the switch in proper repair. A COM
plain was also made that the same
