GOOD SIGNS.

When the United States Steel Cor
poration declared that it would not
under any conditions lower the prices
iof Its product despite dull trade and
slack demand, because it had declined
to increase the prices when every
thing was on a boom, The Times Dis
spatch said that the world would wait
with interest the struggle Of even this
\ giant corporation against economic
4 laws. In the ordinary course of trade,
as the price goes down, the Inevitable
effect is TO increase the demand, and SO
y trade revives again. BY holding its
price rigidly in the face OF great fall
ing off in building and railroad con-
strucuon the Steel Corporation
brought about deadlock Now, how
ever, II the prices are reasonably re.
duced the immediate effect ought Il
be a revival OF construction with al

the nomination for the presidency by

choice of his party in this state before

committee to President Roosevelt for
his great service to his country by a

The committee then carried out the
purpose for which it was brought to-
gether by calling the state convention
to meet in Calnegit hall, New York
City on April II, at / o'clock and by
unanimous vote agreeing to recon-
mend former Lieutenant Governor M.
lynn Bruce as temporary chairman Of
the convention.
All the thirty-eight members Of the
committee were present or represent

less than half an hour, The call pro-
vdes that the convention shall elect
four delegates and altcrnates at large
to the national convention, elect a

thirty-nine presidential electors from

The following letter from r. w. y.
Bryan, one of the leaders Of the
democratic party in this city, will be
read with considerable interest by his
democratic friends and with approval
end assent by republicans. The letter
is all the more forcGful and indicates
all the more strongly the intense and
fully recognized strength of the repub-
lican ticket from the fact that in a
democratic harmonizing meeting a
few evenings ago Mr.. Bryan declared
in ringing terms that he was always
IN enemy of fusion, and that had he
been able to bring it about there
would would have been straight
democratic ticket in the field in every
election in the past six years. To
turn from his strong partisan decla-
ration to the following letter is con-
vincing evidence that the republican
city ticket is recognized as invinciblc
by Mr.. Bryan, who Is in a position to
ascertain the sentiment of his demo-
cratic friends. Mr.. Bryans state
ment. which was handed to the Morn
evening, follows:
To NY Fellow Democrats:
think most of you will agree with
me that last night the republicans Of
this city nominated what could well
be called a good ticket. This was ac-
complished largely by reason of the
fusion of the factions in the party OF
course the democrats could if we so
desired nominate a better ticket. It
has occurred to me however to seri-
ously consider whether under present
conditions it would be wise for us to
do so. Good citizens are generally Of
