According to tho World-Herald Bry- an'n election Is absolutely sure. But n few peoplo In this soctlon nro willing to wnger that ho Is no nearer to tho White llouso than he was four yearB ago. When Bryan Is looking for a quota- nuu (.u.v.u.. always selects ouo from tho writings or saying of somo man who Is dend. He is thus relieved or tno cmunrrassmcnt or an objection rrom mo nutnor. Tho heavy registration all over tho country indicates that while voters aro too busy to stand around the streets talking politics ns thoy did four years ago they think tho preservation of tho prosent prosperity is valuable enough to Induce thorn to take time to vote.

According to tho figures given by the viceroy of India, a rough estlmato of tho cost of tho famine In thnt country would not fall short of J500.000.000.

Mr. Bryan steadfastly refuses to answer the question whether, If elected, ho would pay our coin bonds In silver dollars. But he bad already answered it. Many a time during nnd after the campaign ot 189G he said what he said in his campaign spoech to the business men of Chicago, and which Ib embodied in his book, "Tho First Battle." This Is what he said: And then I propose that we shall say to our foreign creditors that wo Intend to pay our coin obligations In either gold or silver. I propose that we shall say to them: 'Gentlemen, It you conspire to mako that sliver dollar worth less than the gold dol lar, wo Bhall pay you In that silver dollar.' You say that that is repudiation.

Now, as It would bo Inevitable thtt sil ver dollars iould go down to their com mercial value If our mints were opened to their free and unlimited colusgo at thn ratio of 16 to 1, Bryan would at once charge that this unavoidable effect of eco nomic law was tho result of a connplrscy on tho part ot our foreign aud domestic creditors, and then would pay tho interest and principal of our coin bonds in thee depreciated silver dollars. He denies In ad- vanco that that would bo repudiation. Just as tho grcrnbackers denied that it would bo repudiation to pay our bonds In green backs when they wcro worth 40 cents on tho dollar. But here wo have his answer to tho question to which he now declines to glvo response. Ho not only mado that answer In a carefully prepared speoch, hut that there should bo no doubt about the deliberate fixity ot his purpose ho put It in his book, and thero It stands out on pngo D87 of his "First Battle," a perpetual witness to the reckless dishonesty and financial Imbecility of the man who as pires to the presidential offlco mainly for tho purposo of carrying out the policy of natlonn! dishonor. h'VX WITHOUT riui.i,.i.
