It Is tho trick of the Bryanized De
mocracy this fall to make false
charges against Republican methods,
raise a big dust, hire Republican mal
contents to organize Republican bolts
and then coax Individual Republicans
to desert their party on tho represen
tation that "party tics needn't count
for anything In nn off year." By this
trick, if It shall work, the Hryanltes
will get a foothold for a hopeful light
In national campaigns, and make Just
so much more troublo for MeKInley,
the Repi.l llrnn congress nnd the cause
of sound n orey.
You now see through this trick. Are
you going to let it work?

THE MARKETS.
Wnll Street Ilnvictv
New York, Oct. 18. For the first tlmo in
several weeks prices of stocks wero nt no
tlmo during the. day below the level of
those prevailing at tho close tho night be
fore. There were occasional slight reac
tions today with no better apparent causo
than synrpathy with Sitgur, which wero
Itself marked by strong advaneo and
was turned backwards nt times only
by profit-taking. Speculation halted
during the morning In expectation
of a decision by tho Supremo court
ut Washington In the Nebraska max
imum freight into case. Although
this decision is expected to be In favor
of the railroad and was looked to to glvo
on upward ' Impetiis to prices, tho an
nouncement that the handing down of tho
decision had been postponed was followed
by a decided Increase In the activity of
the trading, attended by a rise' In prices.
The strength of the Granger stocks and
thu awakened Interest and Improvement
In tho Vanderbllts were very notable.
Tho vigorous upward moveraent of this
powerfully influential group caused a
striking advance throughout the list. A
featuro of tho market was the neglect ot
the Industrial", except Sugar, as com
pared with the recent trading, and even
Sugar shownl a falling off in activity as
tho day progressed, and tho trading In tho
railroad stocks developed greater anima
tion. Furnished by WILLIAM LINN, AL
