Isn't Thin Mean T President McKinley in blB message pledges hie party to fighting trusts. Congress Is making arrangements to fasten Irrevocably the gold standard on this country. If botb of these acts are not a downright shame we would like to know what tbey are. Mr. Bryan has been for years lihgting for free silver, and more recently be bas added oppo, sltion to trusts as one of his planks. If tbe Republicans fasten tbe gold standard ' on tbe country, and then steal Air. Bryan's "anti-trust" plank, Mr. Bryan will have to ! tart over in tbe Presidential campaign.
