You are described as} of a fair mind and large influence in your etate. I therefore address you| in the hope that you may be per suaded from your present course, for you are leading the lower clas the laborers, artisans, mechanics and agriculturists of your state into a step which will cause them great distress. We, whose business it is to study finances, aud are therefore capable of determining such questions, know there is at this tine TOO MUCH MONEY. Millions are now ready in this city to be loaned on call, with good collateral such as government bonds, where it is really needed, at remunerative rates. Your methods are such as to frighten all money M sp te at lenders (for nothing is so easily| scribe millions of meney at presiden- | er scared as money.) No one can tell| tial elections for their cause. which a outlay by agitations is constantly in creased. {n talking with Mr Hanna recently he said he would need twenty five millions of dollars from our city before tbe polls closed in November, caused by such men as} you and Mr. Bryav, but we think that if treble the amount is really neeled our generous people will supply it to keep the ignorant peo ple from committing political sui cide. Everyone at the last meeting when Mr. Hanna was here agreed to stand by him. Our newspapers are loyal to the peeple; they are terribly mad, however,at Mr. Bryan for his speech at Madison Square garden, and we should net be eurprised if some of them indulged in violent language | { Mr. Bryau speak here again = Mr. | Hanna has seen some of the most what laws your candidate (if elected) may suggest; while even now the} laws are all egainst our people. We are forced to loan money at such rates as we can get. If we cannot get 10 per cent we take 9; if we can not get 9 we take 8 and in peaceful times even lower, and it 1s difficult even then to keep our money at work. But what do your working- men eay? If they cannot get a dollar a day they refuse to work, while they ought to take 75 cents or even 50 cents so that we may keep them at work. You ought to teach them that $1 per day on 2 GOLD basis is enormeus pay in this country; no gold country pays more than 50 eents for labor, while here living is | the cheapest of all countries, provid | ing the lower classes will live as | they should live. They are really | e b D; el it h a a | if necessary, and are perfectly will- ing to trust you without fear. Mr. Hanna in many cases does not allow workingmen avoid it as a general fool.
