n C. Du Val. vtce-president OF the Brooklyn

of the coming campaign said yesterday:

II one of those who organized the Young
Republican Club in Brooklyn in the Garfield
campaign. That club became a power in the
country and did sterling work for Republican
Ism. This Is the time when every man in the
country should ally himself with some strong
organization committed to Republicanism. The
questions involved more than mere partisan
politics. The honor and integrity of the country
at home and abroad have been attacked, and
the platform Of the DemocTatic party in the
coming campaign, in 1896, falls little short
of anarchy and repudiatiOn.
The Republican party is going TO win this
fali. but that is no reason why there should be
laggards in the ranks. We must get together
and make the victory this fall so impressive and
so convincing that the creed Of Bryan VIII be
buried so deep 1t never raise it's head again.
The Republican partv has redeemed It's
pledges to the people and holds out brighter
promises for the future For the people to dis
charge good servant and depOse from power

WILLIAM PENN NIXON. OF CHICAGO. THINKS
THEY UNDERRATE THE IMPORTANCE
OF THE ELECTION

Chicago, June % (specaD-WiIliam Penn
Nixon. publisher of The Inter Ocean:
I think this campaign is of the most i'm
portant in many years, not excepting that Of
1896. The greatest danger to Republicans lies
IN overconhdence, especially among business
men, who are satisfied with the financial laws
and the adoption Of gold the legal standard Of
value. They underrate the importance of the
forthcoming election, and should be aroused to a
roper appreciation of it. Then, a great many
also do not realize the personal popularity Of
Mr.. Bryan. He has remarkable faculty Of
making friends, and in my mind is the most
popular as we'll as the most dangerous man in
the Democratic party. I think, however that
there Is really no doubt about the issue If the
Republicans rouse themselves and make the
fight that ought to be made. The thing that
gives me special confidence in the success of the
Republicans this year is the strong hold Presi-
dent Mckinley has on the affections Of the peo-
pie He not only has their confidence but their
absolute affection. l believe that to-day he is
nearer the rank and file of the party than any
other man has been for years"

Leonard-st, said to a Tribune reporter: Il can
not believe that the reelection Of President Nc
Kinley is uncertain. 1t seems TO me that the
good sense OF the people OF this country will
prevent a return to the adversely which af-
hicted this land before Mr. McKinley's cleo
ton. Mr.. Bryan is to be the Democratic candI-
date again. and his Views have been so thorough
ly discredited by the experience of the last four
years that II would seem to be impossible :or
him to receive many votes he did in 1890.
All his predictions have turned out wrong and
his theories have been disproved by events that
known TO everybody. The gold standard
and prosperity go together. The price OF wheat
goes up while the price OF silver goes down. Tie
