AGERMAN LEADERS, LETTER
Fred Heinz Tells What Bryan Would Do
If Elected President.

Fred Heinz Tells What Bryan Would Do
If Elected President.
Davenport, Aug. Ito the Editor
of the Republican: In a recent article
on 1.-The Menace of Free Silver Coin
age" the New York Journal of Com
merce says:
"The very important interview with
the secretary of the treasury which we
print this morning, shows that long be-
fore Mr. Bryan could become presi,
dent, the moment his election was as.
certained, the public of this country
and of the whole world would conclude
that the United States had repudiated
the single gold standard. If the fear
that silver payments could not be
averted, precipitated the disaster of
1898, the belief that silver payments
would be resorted to as early as pos
sible, would infict a still greater ca
lamity upon the country"
This, it seems to me, is fair state
ment of the case from the business
standpoint.
Suppose Bryan was elected and he
should, as he undoubtedly would. sur
round himself with cabinet advisers
in sympathy with his free silver senti-
ments, what would follow?
Ex-comptroller of the. currency, the
Hon. j. III. Eckels, foreshadowed the
inevitable result when he said, in an
interview recently published in the Chi.
! cago Times Herald:
eff elected president, the public must
be prepared to see Mr.. Bryan as chief
executive, and those associated with
him as cabinet counselors, construe
every law bearing upon the currency
and the powers of the treasury depart
ment in such a manner as to nullify as
best they can its provisions in so fan
as they bear upon the question of the
maintenance of the gold Standard

Fatally slashed by Negro.

st. Joseph, Mo-, Aug. 2s.-An un-
known negro boy probably fatally
slashed Angus Morrison, superintend-
ent of bridges for the Chicago Great
Western railway last night, as he was
hurrying to catchaa train. Morrison's
throat was cut, supposedly with a
razor. He can give no reason for the
assault. unless it is because he acct
dentally brushed against the negro.

England and Chinese.

London, June 1.-THE Chinese situa.
ton, which at the beginning of last week
was merely small cloud on the interna.
tional horizon, now overshadows every
other topic. England, according to most
authorities, save those who control her
foreign policy, is face to face with a crisis
in far eastern affairs, which, though it
may not result in any immediate partition
of China, must determine the part that
England shall play when the partition
eventually occurs. That such an emer-
gency should have arisen at a moment
when England is least able to utilize it,
when almost all her land forces are 5000
miles from home, and when there is a
paramount necessity for keeping an extra
strong fleet in European waters, is de-
plored by all shades Of statesmen and
politicians.
Lord Salisbury stands almost alone
amidst his own party in believing that the
results OF the Boxer" outbreak will be-
neither serious nor permanent.
