RESULTS OF BRYAN'S LETTER.

The response by Aguinaldo is prompt
and to the point. Bryan's letter came
out on.y few days ago. and Gen. Mac
Arthur reports the results.

Expansion In Trade.

The rapid growth of our business
with Japan in rails and machinery
during the past four years is an in
dication of what may be accomplished
in that quarter in the future under
proper encouragement. Four years
ago American rails were unknown in
Japan, but at the present they more
than double in quantity the rails
which come from England, which up
to 1896 constituted the chief source
of supply. 1t is believed that Amer
leans have it in their power to prac-
tically control the supply of rails and
railroad material generally with
Japan during the next decade. AS
an Indication, it is cited that the
Carnegie company signed contract
at Kobe for 5000 tons of rails at a
price of $3,2s per ton under the low
est English bid. The men who man
ufacture these rails contribute to the
well being of the farmers whose sup
plies feed and clothe them.-Hard-

not be able 10 foist his free silver is

o. f. Luttrell, cashier Bank OF Brew
ton, Brewton, Ala: at seems to be
the consensus of opinion among the
leading business men that the business
and commercial interests of the coun-

that the election of Bryan would be

"Bryan's election would mean disaster
to business, destruction of public con-

repetition of the scenes of hardships
which filed the land during the last
democratic administration"
o. G. Bournan, Citizens national

the business interests of the country
would be injured less by the election
of President Mckinley than Mr..

IL you lived in London, too, where the
