business Argument For Mckinley.

Mr. j. Howard Cowpcrthwait.
prominent New York business man,
writes as follows to the New York
Times: 1T is not necessary to prove
that Bryan, If elected, would be able
TO put us on silver basis. The clear
headed man of affairs does not place
in a position of trust an untrustworthy
person, thus relying solely upon the
safeguards surrounding the position.
On the contrary, it is usual to select
trustworthy persons, no matter how
safely guarded the position may be,
and it is hardly reasonable to suppose
that practical men will vote to put into
the position of very highest trust the
man who most certainly desires to dis
honor the position and the country.
when certain of our professional
friends tell us that Bryan could do no
harm, we are reminded of the old
story Of the man who lad to insist that
he actually was arrested. his profess
sional adviser insisting that he could
not be Put business men who recall

Twelve Democrats and Populists voted
against the bill, while 20 voted for it,
thus giving in its support much more
than Il majority of the senate members
of the parties now supporting Mr.. Bry-
an. When the bill went to the house,
the Democratic and Populist support
was even stronger, the vote in that
body standing 203 yeas to 33 nays, the
opposition not being sufficiently strong
to even command yea and nay vote.
Mr.. suffers Appeal.
When it came up for final action in
that body, Representative Sulzer of
New York, one of Mr.. Bryans most
ardent supporters, speaking of the bill
said:
II am in favor of it and shall do all can to
PASS il. Fifty.fye members OF the senate voted
Tor it. and only l3 voted against it. We
will be dcrect to fidelity 70 the Democrats

: The bill is only temporary measure. 1t
will cease to be operative in 1901. The increase

The above is a plain statement re

nryan on Coal ana Wool.

There haze been many inquiries at
Republican national headquarters as to
Mr.. Bryan's record in congress on tariff
legislation. The record Is perfectly
plain and simple. Mr.. Bryan supported
and voted for every free trade bill that
came before congress while he was a
member. In speech on the Wilson
tariff bill Jan. 13, 1894, he opposed the
duty on coal as indcfcnSible. In an
other speech he declared in favor of
free wool ana said flat he did not care
whether free wool would benefit or
hurt the woolgrowers ON Feb. /,
1884, he voted for the Wilson hill. in
