another. The most p.-urilv and grott'-squ*
idea, even of the boy orator, is his re

;wms to think that we ojght to have a
ti stinct American measure of value be
i.uje we have a distinct American meas
ure of liberty. We -an have American
geogiaphy because our rivers an i moun
•a.:i< and glorious fields, with their rich
harvests, are our own; but we cannot have
an American arithmetic, because two and
two do not make five in the United Stats
any more than in Europe. We can have
a:i American politi al economy because
political economy is partly a matter of
conditions, and oar conditions ate differ
< nt from those of Europe; but we cannot
have an American algebra, because alge
bra is not an experimental, but an exact
science. In a'gebra x represents the un
known quantity, and thus it represents
Bryan after the election, and not ♦ ven the
X rays wi; be "abiC n dis-lose his at

"For a distinct American measure of
value why not have a. distinct American
yardstick different in length from the En
glish yardstick. This talk of an independ

nine. F»o we want commercial relations
with Europe -1 Do we not s-ek to extend
our trade? Then -why do we not want a
common medium of exchange?

"Aliow all and beyond all. wo must ed

and individual honesty is the best pol

out with the world on one transaction and
quit. They must keep up the account,
and for every act of fraud they will pay
double the nt xt time. Wc are against the
emigration of good gold and the immigra
tion of bad blood. We are against the
outflow of toed circulation and the inflow
of bad citizenship. We find communism,
revolution and anarchy no more attractive
<1 nd no less dangerous when urged by the
rhetoric of Bryan, than when enforced by
the bomb of Altgeld, or the pitchfork of

Sara, About Acceptance of the
Chicago Platform. With It* States'
Rights. Free Riot* and Other Ob
jectionable Feature*.
Helena, Mont., Sept. s. —United Sta'es
Sanator Carter, who is tn the East and
vannot attend, has written a letter to tire
Republican state convention, which me. ts
tomorrow, explaining the action of him
•* elf and the four other members of the
Montana delegation to the St. Louis con
vention in reserving the rights of the Re
publicans of the state to .i.cept or reject
tne >if. iaration in favor of the restorat. >n
of sliver by int. rnational agreement. The
senator *ays, in the letter:
"As a Republican, I be'..eve In the free
coinage of silver and protection to Amer
ican .abor and American industry. 1 do
no believe .a any coinage oup, 1 with
f. Ec trade, and 1 do not believe that free
coinage with free trade •an >e success
fully established and mamtau • d by our
government. The free trade policy wiil
render the establishment of bi-metaUism
a.i utter impossibility, lo attempt to se
cure free coinage in conjunction with free
tiade is an Utopian dream. After looking
the whole situation over, it will be found
that tne Republican party has not declared
: 1 favor of the gold standard, but in favor
f tne restoration of - Iver 1 And In th a
particular that it differs from the oppo
s.tinn pla'foim in the ma'ter of me* hod.
"I believe that the party In
this behalf Is too conservative. »ut as be
tween the a ept an e of the R» p.ihl-- an
platform with its -onsfrvative expression
on this subj«- M .. and the .1 ,-eptance of the
Chicago platform with its free trtie.
stares* rights, free riot and other o'.ie -
tionable features, I rind no room to heal,
t.ite. I believe u Is the char and unquer
ti-wiab'e aiutv of the deb sates who i»-
cenulfl under and in conformity with the
forms and usages of the Republicans of
this state and as delegates representative
of other peopl who reside here, to p've
in the field electors favorable to McKin
ley and Hobart.
"The p.\rtv In Montana should. In my
Opinion,indorse the entire national pl-a* form
ex. ept as 'o the feature declaring Interna
tional conditions pre<-edent to the remone
tlzatlon of silver. For that declaration this
convention should substttuie a declaration
for the free coinage of c dd and sllv> r in
the same manner as our Ma.tf conventions
have heretofore declared.
"Within the past forty-one months the
country has fallen from the height of
prosperity to the depths 0/ despair.
Thoughtless men freely talk of revolu
tion. In the midst, of the reigning cha >s
in political thought our party stands as
the only conservative force adequate to
restore order and confidence. Without
these elements prosperity Is impossible.
"In the future as in the past 1 shall
stan 1 for protection and free coinage.
Flrm v believing that the best Interests
of our state and the nation at large wdi
be subserved by the election of McKinb-v
and liobart T .shall give th'-ni my support,
notwithstanding that the national plat
form does not meet my approval in one
particular. The few who seek to find Jus
tification in the platform for th" advoca v
of the single gold standard, are at war
with tiie party and its platform. Their
discordant utterances are to lie regarded
as unavoidable noise, incident to a great
political campaign. To those of our party
who feel constrained on account of a
matter of method of one Issue to depart
from us on ail other national questions
at th« coming election. w-» should mani
fest a spirit of toleration, w-il knowing
that in title season they will return."
