SILVE They Will Not Oppose High Protective Duties Should the Republicans Carry the Election. WasnINGToN, Sept. 28.—A silver sen- ator, whose name is not given, is cuoted as saying that if McKinley is senate elected the silver forces of the not a the next session obstruct age of a tariff or other bill nise additional revenue, and to note the reasons which it is claimed would influence the silver men in the senate to take the line of action indicated. For the will the pas tended to it is interesting silver men in congress to oppose tariff | legislation in the event of McKinley's election would, it is argued, still give the protectioni an opportunity to continue their fight on the same line and prevent a square issue on silver alone, It will be the purpose of the silver men who say that neither under a high tariff nor a low tariff alone can good times be restored, to have this fact demonstrated. The publicans will be told to goahead with their tariff bill, and if they have a ma- jority in the senate they can pass it. The silver men will want to demon- strate before the next national cam- paign, in case they are defeated th year, that neither under a low tariff with the gold standard nor under a high tariff with the gold standard can there be prosperity. The silver repub- licans who bolted the St. Louis con- vention will take the view that it will be necessary, in order to prove what they have d, to have some tariff leg- islation.
