IIbi.rna, Mont, Sept. 10.—United States Senator Carter has written a letter to the Republican State con vention, which meet* to-day, explain ing tha action ot nimself and the four other members of tha Montana dels gatiou to the St Louis convention in reserving tha right of the Republicans of tna State to accopt or reject the financial declaration of the platform there adopted. The Sanator aaya in the letter: "At a Republican I believe fa tha frea coinage of silver and protection to American labor and Amerioan in dustry. I do not believe in free coin age conpled with frea trade, and I do not believe that free coinage, eonpled with free trade, can be successfully established and maintained by our government. The free trade policy will render the establishment of bi metallism an utter Impossibility. The attempt to secure free coloage In con junction with free trade Is an Utopian dream. After looking the whole sit uation over, it will be found that the Republican party haa not declared in favor of the geld standard, but In favor of the restoration of silver. I find in thia particular that it differs from the opposition platform in the matter of method. "I believe that the Republican party in this behalf ia too conservative, but aa between the acceptance of the Re publican party, with its conservative expression on thia subject, and the Chicago platform, with Its free trade, State's rights, free riot and other ob tactionable features, 1 find no room to leaitate. I believe it la the clear and unquestionable duty of the delegates who assemble under and in conformity with tha forms and usages of the Re pnblicen party of this State, ami as delegates representative of other people who reside here, to piece in the field electors favorable to McKin ley and Hobart The party In Mon tana should, in mv opinion, indorse the entire Republican platform, ex cept as to the feature declaring inter national condition precedent to the remonetization of silver. For that UCLiBI BVIVU »lll« t-WM VM/U •UUHIW substitute e declaration for the free coinage of gold and silver, In the name manner aa our state conventions have heretofore declared. “In the future, aa In the past, I shall stand for protection and free coinage. Flrmlv believing that the beet interests of our state end the na tion at large will be subserved by the election of McKinley end Uobert, I ■bell give them my support, notwith standing the national platform does not meet my approval in one particu lar.

Kaiuar Citx, Mo., Kept. It.—Will iam J. lirysn was given an enthusi astic recaption in Kanwte City this morning, end after a etay of three hours, he left for e daylight trip across Missouri. At 7 he spoke briefly to two thousand workingmen In the West bottom*. Two hours later,after breakfast end an informal reception at tba Coats, he made a second and longer speech in the open eir at Elarenth and Orand avenue before a crowd of at least 10,000 people. He eald In part at the bottoms: “home of our opponent* tell us that the thing to do is to open the inilla instead of the mints That remind* me of the man who aaid that bis horse would go all right if he could Just get the wagon started. It is putting the cart before the horse. What use is there for mills unless the people can buy what the mills produce, and how can you start them as long as those who produce the wealth of this coun try, particularly the farmer, are not able to iret enough out of what they raise to pay their taxes and interest? There is no more efTestive wav of de stroying the markets for what the mills produce than to lower the price upon the products the farmer has raised, so that they will bring him not enough to pay him for raising them. ” It was 8:3ft o'clock when he began speaking up town. The jam around the speaking stand was so dense that it was impossioie lor me itryan party to get to it, so he stood up in the tally-ho on which he rode from the Coatea house, and spoke as follow* In part: "Our opponents tail us that we pro pose to change the operation of nat ural law. 1 assert that the advocates of free coinage are the only people in this campaign who base their argu ments cn the fundamental principles of natural law. That law is the law of supply and demand; it is the great law of trade. Now we propose to ap ply that law of supply and demand to the money question, and we say that when you increase the demand for gold by making it the sole standard of values, you raise its price just as you raise the price of anything else by in creasing the demand for it, and that when you raise the price of gold in a gold standard country you lower the price of all products wnlch are meas ured by money. A gold standard then means falling prices, and falling prices means hard times to everybody except the man who owns money or trades in money. “Now, if the money owner has a right to use the ballot to raise the value of the mouev which he owns, why have not all the test of the peo ple the right to use the ballot to keep him from destroying the value of the properly which they own? "Now another proportion. We be lieve not only that the free coinage of silver will raise the value of silver bullion as measured by gold, but we believe that the demand created by the United States will be sufficient to take all our surplus silver and there being no silver on the market which cannot be converted into money at our mints and used in the develop ment of our industries. There will be no silver in the world that can be purchased for less than Si. 2U per ounce. Hut our opponents say; ‘Sup pose we have more money, how are you going to get any of it?’ That, to them, is an argument which answers everything. Let me suggest an argu ment, or rather a question, which you can ask them: 'Suppose you have something to sell, how can you get anything for it until you Unit some body who has money to bur it? Money Is the creature of law. There can be no money until the govern ment provides for that money. If you want more of sny of the products of labor you can go out and bring them Into existence: but if you want more money you cannot go out and create more money, because the law impusea a penally—punishment in the peniten tiary—for anv man who tries to create money. Therefore, my friends, the only way to bring more money into existence is to taue charge of the gov ernment, which is th* only Instru mentality, and by law often the mints and permit the coinage of enough money for the people to do busiuess with “Now I am not permitted to talk to you but a short time nor have 1 strength enough to go through the campaign if I should do otherwise I •s,aai MMU I., laUa IkU asABaH ...... li. „ • u I »luJy It fur youraalva* m, el*** of |K>o|tla ba« the riybt to dnnltli for you -you bat# yot tuilo it ynuraolvaa. lay frl#o4*. lUotobtr Ibat your taleat* *»»• yIran you fur tbo |>rutoa lluu uf your rlybta, aa4 tbaro t* uu bo4y U> whuui you aao aofaly *alru«l yuur totaraava but youraalf ' Aftar tba *|***«ib tba tolly-bo, arilb o louibitoy «*>*»• folluwlay It, wa* 4rlt*« »o lb* 4*yut. waar* Mr Mr,an ao4 yariy bu*r4*4 o traio for tba trip aaroa* M(»« -uri Tba eoa4l4*l* tyub* at a ouoibar of pwiau oluny tbo r*»ui# to »l I nula »bar* b* wo* *ih*4ol*4 fur tbraa Iwaul ayaoabao 4IOn tMyuOiW r*t»» Oft* for MW WUu toot Mtutt, lias, bayt.
