New York, Oct. 3I.-Judge
Gaynor, in a speech teaming with
invective, brought his campaign to
an end this afternoon at the Peo-
pies Forum, in Brooklyn.
The Democratic nominee directed
his shafts at William Randolph
Hearst, and classed MS fight for
the mayoralty in a manner that was
in keeping with the aggressiveess
that has characterized the contest
for votes.
He said in part:
There are some bad people who
have come into this city in recent
years and we've got to get rid Of
them. And I tell you If I get into
office and the district attorney
comes in with me they viii be got
ten rio Of. Well put stripes on
some Of them who have been pictur-
.ng other people in stripes.

4 little later. in repeating his remarks
about the bad people who in recent years
have come into this city. the Judge said:
Some or 'em only ten years from
San Francisco. Just think OF it."

here on nonpartisanship IN municipal
elections. II I had known al that was
going 10 take place meanwhile. I would

THE REHABILITATION OF SILVER

UsINEsS interests and newspapers overt the country especially in the
West are paying more and more attention to the silver question, and
it is NOT unlikely that the neal future will see the silver question
brought up not only a a national but as a International problem which
must be solved. It is the proposition of foreign trade which is awakening the
silver question. Our manufacturers are finding that with silver a mere com
modify in this country and all business with silver countries based upon
disastrous exchange rates. they have reached a stumbling block which can
only be removed by a coinage system not too far at variance with the systems
of the countries with which they are trying to do business. The present quot
ing of silver presents a great inducement to the manufacturer to NOV his
plant 10 the country which uses silver currency, and where a days work
is paid for in less silver dollars than the American workman demands in gold
dollars for a days work.. Then W e will have the spectacle Of the American
nation as n importing rather than an exporting nation.
Along these lines the Salt Lake Telegram apuy says:
I'VE wonder how many Of or rea drs noticed the other day the little in
tervew with P. J. Moran, when they told him that the probability was that
iron would be placed o the free list. In substance, he said: All right.
China has got more COAL and iron than any other country, labor is cheaper than
in any other country and If it gets SO that Americans cannot make iron profit
ably in the United States, they will move their machinery to China; they will
employ Chinese labor, and they will pay it in silver
'se might have added that silver is cheaper by 80 per cent than it was
thirty years ago. which will give manufacturers all the more advantage
lone would thnk that our sharp fnanciers would finally get down to the
pont of reasoning on lines of common sense ant watch the subject in earnest to
see if, after all, a great mistake is lot being made in keeping silver a COM
modify when hf this world treats it only IS money and knows no other money
but silver in the daily transactions Of its people If they keep on fifteen years
longer, al they have been during the last fifteen years, in manipulating the
currency of the world, the generous nations will find they have a gold stand
ard all right and that will be about ALL The worko Of the world will be don by
