When it is considered that in the
estimation of the plutocratic press
the free silver question has long
been regarded as a dead issue and
Mr.. Bryan as a leader without a
following, the dust it is kicking up
over Mr.. Bryan's reported aban-
donment of the free silver idea is
decidedly entertaining. The re-
port is absurd to any one at all
familiar with Mr.. Bryan's position
on the money question. Yet his
published denial was necessary,
perhaps, to neutralize the effect
upon public opinion of the jubila-
tions of newspapers that are much
more at home with diatribes, when
they discuss Mr.. Bryan, than with
the financial doctrines they pretend
to criticise.-Chicago Public.

asking many questions.

iJ
The Republicans are trying to
make the campaign on national
issues and endeavoring to dodge
State issues. 1t is presumed,
therefore, that the honorable Sec
retary of the Treasury will con-
fine his speeches to national issues
OF finance and taxation. In that
case suppose some good farmer
should invite him to answer these
questions:
Is it just to continue taxing the
people S50,0O0,000 year in excess
of the needs of the government?
Would it not be better as well as
more equitable to leave the money
not required for the expenses Of
the government in the pockets of
the people who earn it, rather than
to deposit it in favored banks
without interest? Why should not
Congress at the coming session re-
peal OF reduce the duties on steel
and other trust-made products that
are manufactured cheaper here
than they can be abroad, and are
actually sold in foreign markets at
prices lower than to our own con-
sumers? When will the Republi-
cans repeal or reduce duties that
are no longer needed for either
revenue or protection, but that, in
the language of the Iowa Republic
cans, "shelter monopoly" Does
the Secretary think the "day after
never" a satisfactory date? Or is
it his opinion that the time and the
character of tariff revision should
be fixed by the monopolies that
benefit by the duties?
Candid answers to those ques-
tions without quibbling or shuffling
will open the eyes of thousands OF
voters in this election. Let us
have them.

While Senator Hanna was in
Chicago in attendance upon the
conference of the National Civic
Federation, he learned of the ON
inous closing down of factories
that has already begun in Ohio.
One of the closers-down, an Ohio
manufacturing friend of his, un-
folded the news to him. Natural
ly enough Mr.. Hanna was indig-
nant. Had he not been telling the
working people of Ohio that in
dustrial disaster will not come so
long as he and his party friends
are kept in office? And here were
Ohio captains of industry reck-
lessly bringing on industrial dis
aster in the very middle of an
Ohio campaign, where so much de-
pends upon fooling enough of the
people yet little longer. In his
indignation Mr.. Hanna turned up
on his friend, and not without some
bitterness of tone, pungently asked
him: "Why couldn't you have
waited until after election? Don't
you realize that | have some in
terest in Ohio myself just now?"

deal of a confidence man in poll

"Then suddenly little Mr.. Knox,

the biggest combinations and made
a speech in which he pointed his
finger straight at the weak point in

Knox went on a vacation and gave

half dozen money brokers do a bust

TOURISTS AND THEIR MONEY.
The Amount Left by Them In Mexico
IL Said to he Very
Great.

Every year tourist travel to this
country grows in volume, and the
season tends to begin earlier. Just
how much money tourists leave in
the country it is impossible to say
with any approach to exactitude, but
1t must be great, says the Mexican
Herald. This money is just so much
clear gain to the country, and serves
to increase the prevailing prosper
ity, for if the great sums sent hero
by investors make business good and
oil the machinery of trade and
finance, the smaller amounts brought
by travellers, swelling into a very re-
spectacle aggregate, stimulate trade,
give profits to the hotel keepers,
transportation companies, and a
small army of people who thrive DUR
Ing the tourist season. 1t is said that
Italian cities take in from European
and American tourist travel $60,O0O,-
900 a year. This seems exaggerated,
but VIGOROUSLY many famous old
cities are kept alive by the money
spent by sightseers. Those ancient
cities, filled with monuments of art
and enjoying relatively mild winter
climate, keenly realize the need of
preserving every bit of antiquity, for
n, one may destroy a noteworthy
facade without permission from the
authorities, nor may works of art go
out of the country if the government
decides in the negative. Switzerland
with its literally thousands Of hotels,
big and little, exists on tourist travel,
and curious enough has to buy a
large part Of the food the travellers
consume from Belgium, Denmark,
etc. Yet Switzerland makes hand
some profit, for Swiss thrift is pro-
