Democratic Convention on the race
question was received with great in
terest by Democratic mem bers of Con-.
gress in Washington. Talks with
them indicated that they thought the
Maryland Democracy had paved the
way for a clear delineation of the
whole problem and that it would be
fruitful of important results. The
opinion is expressed that other Demo
cratic State conventions, to be held
either this year or next, will follow
the example set by the Maryland Con-
vention. It has been apparent for
some time that the race issue is to be
an important one in the next national
campaign. The action of the Mary
land Convention is regarded as en-
phasizing its Importance. Following,
the declaration of the Maryland Con-
vention will come to the fight in Con-
gress next winter. Democratic lead
ers have asserted recently that the
republicans must be brought out on
the issue. The case is to be put
plainly. The question to Republicans
on both floors of Congress will be !:
Doe you intend to stand by the Presi-
dents policy on this subject or do you
purpose to repudiate it? There can
be no avoidance of the issue.
The Chinese Minister has called at

eight were severely injured.

THE SILVER ISSUE.
Noted Authority Talks on Report .
International Commission.


Noted Authority Talks on Report Of
international Commission.
Discussing the report Of the United
States commission on international
exchange and the agreement to fix the
ratio between gold and silver at 80 To
l as recited in the commissions re
port released on Monday last, Daniel
Guggenheim, who has applied himself
assiduously to the question as any au-
thority in the world, said, in an inte--
lew in the Salt Lake Tribune, that
the ratio will undoubtedly be of i'm
mense benefit to the people through
out the world.
'"The great effort" he continued, sis
to regulate the production of silver.
A ratio might be fixed which would
adance the price to 81 per ounce. but
that would result in a tremendous pro-
duction and the price could not I've
maintained. The solution is price
based upon the actual value of silver
upon the legitimate demand for it,
both as a money and as a metal. Sucn
a price will not beget an over produc-
tion. and consequently such price for
the metal can be maintained. Is it not
better for the owner Of a silver mine
to have a ratio that would be perma-
nent than one out of which great
deal Of money could be made in a
short time, but which cannot last, be-
cause of an over production?
"The ratio of 80 to l will not cause
an over production, and yet it will
enable some mines now idle to oper-
ate profitably. An advantage that will
accrue to mine owners is that they
will be able before they open to es5i-
mate just what they will get for their
silver They can figure. also just how
much their gold will bring, and with
the price of these two metals immu-
table, the mine owner can get pretty
close estimate of just what his opera
ton of his mines will yield.
Will q uACu I6tlO tucTO Will U0 =
greater demand for silver. There is
always a staple demand for an article
whose actual value is known. The ma
tions, presume, when they adopt this
ratio, will enter into an agreement
to stop buying when the demand sends
the metal beyond the price fixed by the
ratio. There will doubtless be an in
ternational understanding which will
prevent the mints of the nations be-
ing competitors against each other.
Thus when France needs a certain
amount of silver to coin the other ma
tions will be advised and will arrange
matters in such a way that there shall
be no extraordinary demands to meet.
This will insure steady demand for
the metal and will eliminate the ele-
ment of uncertainty. 1t will have a
tendency to make mining more indus
trial in it's character and not SO much
of a speculation.
