He also made the statement that nothing had occurred since 1896 to justify any bimetallist in the abandonment of the position he had taken, and was solicitous in his query as to whether the Democrats would be expected to abandon' the ' silver issue and declare for the gold standard, as Cleveland and his friends wished to in 1892.

Met-- . Mr. calfe, editor of the Brayns chief newspaper ally in the state of Nebraska, addressed a letter to Norman E. Mack, editor of the Buffalo Times, inquiring for his views on the platform to be adopted by the next national Democratic convention. Mr. Mack has been urging a getting together of the factions cf the Democratic party and in his paper has urged the warring leaders to concede certain points in order that harmony might prevail. He has spoken kindly of both Bryan and Cleveland, and paid tributes to the abilities of each of these eminent Democrats. Metcalfe attempted to put Mack in the hole in his. letter and: as printed it looked like a stem winder and hard to answer, but it appears that Mack is something of .a letter writer himself, for he gives the Omaha man a Roland for an Oliver 'every time and in some instances two Rolands for. one Oliver. Metcalfe asked' concerning the following expressions in the last few platforms of the- party, and wanted to know what Jdack would do in relation to them: World-Heral- d, 7.

Jl Jl But what says Mr. Bryan after all this? After printing both Metcalfes letter and Macks answer, does he approve of any of the suggestions made? Not at all. He gets into his kennel BEER. f SOD and barks back defiance to every one and everything that does not agree with him. Declares that Macks suggestions savor of attempting the impossible, and builds himself houses of cobs and men of straw in his puerile attempts to show why Democrats could not agree. After a lot of illogical and inane babbling about the platforms of 1896 and 1900, he concludes Mr. Mack is laying a screed with: store a of up disappointment if large he thinks there will be harmony between the men who think as Mr. Cleveland does and the men who be- lieve earnestly in the platforms of 1896 and 1900. Harmony .between these elements is absolutely impossi- ble, because their sympathies, their aspirations, their purposes and their methods are directly antagonistic to each other. If they are hitched to the Democratic plow they will not pull together, but each will throw its weight against the weight of the other. Each faction can do more alone than it can pulling against the strength of the other. It is not in the interest of harmony, but in the interest of discord and disaster to try to irreconcilable elements."1 reconcile There you have Mr. Bryans ultimatum. Democrats will have to choose whom they will serve. If Bryan, then they will fight against the regular or ganization of the party, for the hither . pro-niun- ce SaH Lstke City Brewing Company - - Cabinet As declaration against the blacklist he also commends strongly. On the question of the election of senators by a direct vote of the people he is emphatic, and, concluding, declares that the friends of both Bryan and Cleveland can unite on these valid and vital principles without surrendering one iota of their political belief. He suggests to the Nebraskan that as the platform will be made by the representatives of about 8,000,000 Democrats, the man nominated will be one who will stand on the platform. The communication has the ring of clear sincerity which will no doubt commend it to every Democrat who desires to see his party triumph. It Is apparent that Utah has become the dumping ground for a vast amount of cheap and inferior quality of eastern beer 'which Is selling below cost for the sole purpose (ft getting rid of it. It is spoiling on the hands of the manufacturers and rather than run it down the sewer, where it belongs, It is sent to Utah and palmed off on reputation instead of quality. While singling out no particular brand, we can truthfully state that the greater portion of Imported beers comes within that category. Now, we are in position to offer the beer consuming public the finest quality of lager beer ever produced in the west a pure, wholesome tonic, at no advance in price over the inferior brands. We do this to convince the public that Utah can manufacture as fine a quality of beer as can be produced anywhere in the United States. Every day strangers traveling through our city, drink the beer of the Salt Lake City Brewing Co. and it superior to any they can find, either east or west of us. V e deliver to any address in the city at S2.50 per case of two dozen quarts, case and bottles to be called for when empty, and we pride ourselves on prompt delivery; so do not fall to telephone your orders to' No. 17. We can also furnish, on very short notice, from five to ten can per day of both bulk and bottled beer.
