BRYAN LETTER WHICH

and in this sense we are cffccting a
conquest of Brazil.
Her constitution is modeled after
ours; she has copied from US the fed
eral system of government, which
united local control of local affairs
with national supremacy; her flag, like
ours has a star for each State, and
her school system is being made TO
conform more and more to ours. These
victories. too, cement friendship, in
stead of arousing enmity. Hail to
Jefferson, the worlds schoolmaster,
whose views continue their majestic
march around the earth
But in our own country, as we'll ar
abroad, his principles are triumphing.
He taught that the art of government
is the art OF being honest and each

In one large office move was started
to get up sort of endless chain letter

urge Mr.. Montague to announce his
candidacy. The pressure which will be
brought to bear upon him within the

So far the Ex-Governor is not !ndi-

his legal practice. and was especially
closely occupied on yesterday. But his
friends believe that he will be unable
to resist the appeals that will be made.

but there is another item of news
which has Just come to my attention
President Taft in his Lincoln speech
at New York February IL attributes
present high prices mainly to the in
crease in the production of gold ana
the consequent enlargement OF the
volume of money. This unexpected IN
dorsement of our party's proposition
I'm 1896. when we demanded that mon
ey as the only remedy for falling
prices, is very gratifying. How valu-
able that admission would have peen
to us If 1t had been made during the
campaign of that year, when the Re
publican leaders were denying that
the volume of money had any inllu-
ence on prices, and asserting that II
did not matter whether we had mucn
money or little, provided 1T was all
good.
1--WE mag now consider the quantita-
tive theory OF money established pc
yond dispute and proceed to the con
sideraton of other questions But the
President and his predecessor have ad-
mitted the correctness of the Demo-
cratic position on so many questions
that further argument is hardly
necessary on any subject and we may
now take Judgment against the re
publican party by confession.
