ADOLPH HIRSH INDORSES MKINLEY.
LIFELONG CLEVELAND DEMOCRAT EX-

Adolph Hirsh, OF the firm Of Heller. Hirsh &

stating that while he has been lifelong Demo-
crat, he wants TO place himself ION record against
the party which has elected since about five years
to espouse the cause of free silver coinage and
other equally dangerous Populistic fallacies''
Among the reasons given by Mr.. Hrsh for leav-
ing the Democratic party are the following:
There is a great deal OF ignorance prevailing
among the masses, and particularly among the
working people and the farmers, concerning the
Importance to these classes OF capital or
money, easily obtained at low rates Of interest,
long confidence in the stability of the Govern
ment and the stability of financial policy in
duceS the capitalist to either loan his money out
at low rates of interest or to invest it in the
various enterprises Springing all over this
try. which could not possibly come into existence
without such outside capital.
The demagogues have prejudiced the minds Of the
masses against Capitalists in their efforts to
popuarize the Is to 1 Authorization.
Just the Democratic party will come
to its senses and purge itself of this fad and
the Populistic element which dominates it, and
chooses banner bearers of conservative disposition
such Grover Cleveland, Whitney and Bissell and
again adopts rational politics expect again join
its ranks. for must say that consider the pro
tective tarin crying injustice to the people OF
this country.

Mr. Ramsay says that he believes the cry of i'm
perialism raised by the Democratic party is a vote
catching device. He says he has studied the issue
Of Imperialism, and finds there Is nothing in It.
while he regards the silver issue as OF great danger
II voted for Mckinley in 1896" said Mr. Ramsay
land I expect to vote for him this year. The
money question is vital. II you elect Bryan on an
anti-expansion issue you also elect him on the
money issue. There is possibility OF this coun-
try becoming an empire in any sense OF the word
but there is possibility of great loss coming upon
this country If a President be elected who is an
tagonistic to the single gold standard OF values.
Il have an influential Democratic friend who Is
now in Europe, who is extremist on the anti
expansion question We canvassed the issue OF
that the only real vital question before the Amer
can people to-day is the same old question or
