 power is such that whenever it can bribe or terrify h man into the support of tho gold standard 1t can silence his opposition to banks of issue.
 Whether the silver question will play an important part in the next campaign Is question which cannot now be deter mined The gold standard Is not yet com plete. It remains yet to make silver re. deemabie in gold and limit its legal tender qualities. The Republican party has these further steps in contemplation. We can not abandon the Democratic position until we are ready to accept the Republican position until we are sure that the worlds supply of gold Is sufficient to fur nish all the nations with enough primary money. As the influence of our nation, if cast on the side of the yellow metal, would tend to hasten a universal gold standard, We cannot afford to join in the crusade against silver until the world is ready to do without 1t as money metal.
 '.The Kansas City, platform covered a number of other important questions, among them the dangerous and tyranical system known as government by injunc- ton. This judicial abuse Is growing more and more threatening to liberty, and no ene can say at what moment some judge may so shamefuiiy exceed his authority as to make the settlement of the question Imperative f+
 "The Kansas City platform Is. sound throughout because 1t applied Democratic principles to the conditions then exist ing. These principles are still Democratic and we must apply them to present and future conditions. The line between the Republican party and the Democratic party is the line between plutocracy and democracy, and we cannot afford to oo- literate that line or to make 1t less dis tinct If We abandon the Kansas City platform we shall lose the support of the plain people without gaining the support of those who are opposed to the plat form. We may deserve to win, and still lose, but 1t remains true that to deserve success Is the surest road to victory. Those who boast of their willingness to do anything to win are unsafe pilots, be- cause they throw away the compass when they discard Democratic principles. The party now stands for positive principles and definite policies. If the the party Is right, as I believe 1t Is, we can con> fdently expect vindication, and we can better afford to wait for that vindication than prove recreant to the trust reposed in the party by more than six million voters Very truly yours.

Manchester Market.

Manchester, September 15-Business m this market has been for week over sbaaowed by the news regarding presi- dent Mckinley. The feeling of gloom mas been widespread from the day or the a'- tack. rendering ordinary transactiohs nearly impossible.
 Tbroughout last week the cloth market was characterized by lack of animation and by complaints of general dinicuisy attaching to business. There was some Ill., nuiry for India, but recently many oroers hayeib been impossible, although some nave heen booked. The opinion Is general however, that the present is not favor able time for operating. especially as stocks on the other side are large.
 There were occasionally unimportant transactions with China during the week and there was demand from South Amer lea and the smaller eastern outlets but the home trade was apparently hfeless.
 Yarns were generally unsatisfactory'al- though there was slight increase m buying.

Tn letter to George W. Harris, presi- dent of the Bryan Travelling Mems Club, of St. Louis, W. J. Bryan outlines what he believes will be the leading political issues of 1904. Mir Bryan insists the silver question is not settled; that the fight against trusts must continue, to- gether with opposition to government by injunction" and finally that the Kansas City platform bids fair to be as sound a declaration of Democratic principles three years hence as at the time 1t was adopted. The letter, which Is in answer to one requesting suggestions, begins by advising the club to change It's name from Bryan" to Democratic" and con- tinues:
 Conditions make issues; parties must meet issues as they arise. The tariff question occupied the largest share of public attention in 1s92-the Mckinley law being the irritating cause. Before 1896 rolled around, however. MT. Cleve- land and his Republican and gold Dem ocratic associates had forced the tariff question into the background and created conditions which made the money ques- ton paramount. The Democratic party was compelled to meet that issue, and it met 1t fairly and honestly.
 Between 1896 and 1900, the Republican party, by It's inaction on the trust ques- ton and by its un-American action on the Philippine question, compelled a con- sideration of individualism. which was attacked by private monopoly. and of the fundamental pinciples of government, which were attacked by imperialism The tariff question was not settled in 1896, when 1t gave way to the money question; neither was the money question settled in 1900, when imperialism and monopoly took precedence as it's position on the tariff question. -
 ''No one is able to say what new issues may arise between now and 1904; neither can any one say what relations the var ious issues may bear to each other. It seems probable that imperialism will again be prominent, and probably para mount, for the Republican party shows no disposition to abandon colonialism without repudiating all that we have been taught to regard as Democratic in gov ernment
 ''The trusts are increasing in number and magnitude, and we must resolutely oppose them or forfeit the confidence of the common, people.
 'The Republican party Is determined to retire greenbacks and substitute bank notes to be issued by the banks for their own profit and controlled by them for their own advantage. The paper-money is- sue Is entirely separate and distinct from the silver question, and yet it is a sig, nihcant fact that those who declare the silver question dead have nothing to say about the irreconcilable conflict between government paper money and natIona, bank notes. The influence of the money

Berlin Bourse.

Berlin. September 15 -- The announce ment of the death of MT. Mckinley did not exercise any depressing influence mon the German bourses,i it being believed that MT. Roosevelt would pursue the same policy as his predecessor, and also that the efforts of New York financiers to prevent a crush would succeed The Der lin bourse, however, suffered independent ly of the death of MT. Mckinley from variety of untoward events. The week began with the announcement that the Allegemine Kleinbahn Gesellsehaft would lose half it's capital through recent finan- cial troubles. Later came the announce ment that the Mecklenburg Streilitz Hy- pothken Bank would lose half its capital owing to the difficulties of last spring Next care the statement that the report of the Investigating committee regarding the affairs of the Pomeranian Hypothken Bank would be much more unfavorable than had been expected.
 Yesterday brought a run on herHetl- bronne Gewerbe Bank, causing suspen- sion. The same day witnessed also a re- duction by the rolled wire syndicate of 10 marks per ton in the price of wire and . reduction by the wire nail syndicate of marks per metric hundredweight.
 Numerous, annual reports were pub hshed showing very disappointing results. Moreover. the reports from industrial centcrs continued gloomy A number of hrst-class firms at Remscheid. the great hardware center, are in difficulties. Some factories there have reduced wages 1C per cent and many workmen have been discharged.

With the second shock, however, the whole course of the inside support, pow erful but secret. that had been holding up the market, must be gone over again in order to prevent a severe decline which the big interests would not warrant at this juncture One thing is considered certain, the death of MT.

Consequently, discount rates are dropping materially, per cent being asked on "- months bills and 3 per cent for longer neriods. Even at these rates, the holders of bills hesitate in the hope of further rise.

yETOES RESOLUTION.

Mayor Thompson this afternoon
vetoed the resolution OF Councilman
Thomas, introduced and passed by the
City Council at Its last meeting. pro-
hibting the issuance Of any more liquor
Licenses. The Mayors action in this
case is based upon the city attorneys
report on the question, which is to the
effect that a resolution OF the Coun-
ell cannot repeal or affect q city or
dinance.
The other matter Is the city lighting
contract with the Utah Light and Pow
err company. His honor disapproves the
contract. First, because he thinks the
three-year term is too long; second. he
holds that the language. from dusk
TILL dawn is not specific enough. He
will recommend that It read from one
half hour before dusk until one-half
hour after dawn. Mr.. Thompson also
objects to the moonlight schedule.
