NEW YORK STATE IS DEMOCRATIC Greater New York city being iv the hands of Tammany Hall, that organization will unite with the National Democracy in the demavd for free silver coinage and it is not within the boun:!s of possibility that the rural republican bimetallists will give votes enough upop a single gold standard platform to place the Siate of New York back in the republican column. “There may be infatuated individ uals who think, in view of the elec tion of last Tuesday in Ohio, Iowa, Kentucky and Nebraska, that the Western republican states can be kept in line if future party platforms shall completely yield to gold anv give up the effort to remonetize silver, but the wiser and safer view is to assume that with the issue & framed the republican party wil! meet with overwhelming political disaster, inflicted by a solid South and a West almost solid, aided by Tsmmany Hall and the free silver democracy of the Empire state. WILL NOT ALLOW DEMONETIZATION “This comes very bear being a country of free voters and our elec- tions come very near being honest transactions, and an _intelligeut people with their yotes freely cast aud honestly counted, will never adopt or submit to the permanent demonetization of silver and the fixed ascendency of the single gold standard prescribed by Evgland. “So the pathway of safety is only one direction. Mr. McKinley was elected only because his platform and his previous utterances promised efforts to secure bimetallism. We lost the United States senate because those promises were not sufficiently in earnest aud were distrusted by many. republican voters. We did not promise to establish bimetallism if we could, believing it to be a bad thing, but because we believed it to be a good thing DOOMED TO PARTY ANNIHILATION. “If we now farthteeely~ebendon the pursuit of that good thing we] pleasure to add his name to the | Cuban Repubtic, should the war be doom ourselyes to politica! anvihila- tion. “So there is no course open to us but to bring together the independ ent nations of the Western hemis- phere and to unite them ia one grand and irresistible demand for the money of the ages, God's money, as Secretary Sherman devotionally and reverently called it, silver and| gold joined together ata fixed ratio| as the basis of all paper money and | credits and as the world’s time-} honored measure of the world’s! values. | CASTORIA. simile “— ge every waypem, have read your political forecast of the New York election—your care fully prepared estimate of the vote that will-be cast and the pumber of ballots expected by Van Wyck.
