had a very wide and disastrous panic, j in which :dl our rtconla bavp shraml : tb a second is that one party or the other-! t . . .. . Democrats or Republicans are m a eon-: Democrats or BeaabliomM-cre in a con-1 sidernble measure responsible to the peo ple for these evil times. Now that mokes the discussion a little easier. We hav,e had, and we are still in the shadow of, very evil times. The farmer has felt them: the merchant has felt them; above all, the man who was dependent upon his daily wages for his living has felt diem, because when he lost his job he lost everything; whereas the merchant, when his goods were marked down, had still something left. There were one or two features of this panic that l want to talk to you about, j In the first place I want to say that in my opinion it was not one of those panica which sometimes com'! from overtrading and over-speculation. It was not a relapse from some balloon enter-; prises that we had entered into. We i have had such panics as that in this i country, and they were always charac-1 terized by a great deal of litigation in ! oar courts. In the panic of 1U73-74 the courts of all our counties were crowded ' with collection suits. Hen were being ! sued on notes and mortgages were being foreclosed. That state of thing3 has : not characterized this panic through which we have just gone. There has been very little of that. It was not overtrading and oveispeculation; it was not wildcattingin business that brought this panic upon us. If it had been we -would have seen the necessary incidents and concomitants of that sort of thing in the collection of notes and foreclos- ; ureo of mortgages all over the country. ' When this panic began we had more money in circulatifn per capita than we have had for many yeejrs. This had como about in this way. In the first place under what is known as the Sherman law, the silver purchasing law, under which we bought 4,500,000 ounces of silver every month, we issued a large amount of what was called treasury notes, so that the money in circulation had been increased by about liO,00O,000 by thi new currency that had been put out among the people. The money in ciretdutiou had also been enormously increased by the reduction of the snrnlus in the treasury. A Itomlmtor to Democrata, Yon remember my Democratic friends I tope we are all friends, for I have not anything unkind to say about any one you remember when they made a campaign upon the theory that the oountry was being rained because there was so moon surplus, tneyssitt: "You hare taken this money out of the pockets liLJir

had in thoir pockets. It was one of tUo cuvious features of that p:i!iic that men who had "money and went to the. bank to get it (ld not core much what kind of nionoy was paid thorn whether it was silver certificates or what nut. Tlwy did not stop to look at it, but just wrapped it up in a newspaper and took it home and hid it wider the bed, or took it to a safety de;.wit company, liired n box and stuck it there. They wore not distrustful of the money the government had in circulation; they had alwolnlo confidence in that. They said: "The envernmnnt is behind this money and it has promised to inuke every dollar just as Rood as any other dollar. We do not Care what it is so it is frovorumetit money and we have it." They earned this to sneh an extent that very soon the banks had no money left. There wis a great scarcity of money beoause the people took it out of the bunks and bid it away until thev could see what was goiupr to ooiuo of this airi-

I tatiou. Ihis was not because of comexeess, not Kvanso of laek of ! morcial I money, not bK-auso the neonle were afraid of the money, but because they felt some proat catastrophe was impending, some gre.it uncertainty; imril that nnoertainty was solved they did not rnow what was guim; to happen. Tlier took thoir mouey out of the banks untii, GESEIiAL nAKm). as you know, some of the great banks in New York city wonldn pay out currency in any large a'lioiir.ts on checks of their depositors. They told yon your obeck was oxxL but thev could not nuv 1 cmrenev for it. Evervlxxlv stood and said: "What is goin' to happen? I am sure there is some catastrophe in store for us, and I want to make sivre that what Bttlo moaov I have does not get away from me."' Presently the people got over their foar of the banks and they limmrhr tlw mtmw hnnt. And from j thnt is- to tliis bant vnnlts h:ive tmn frill of money. They have had such a i surplus as they never had before, but :' thy omld make no use of it; nobody j Zre we Z who would take tho money.

A-i(MM t t. i.a uncertainty that the Democratic success of 1893 introduced as to what was to bo clone upon tne wrui question, iney had said they were goin;; to destroy this protective system. Tho Dom'XTatsfrom Andrew Jacksou down to Mr. Hendricks ; and Mr. McDonald and Mr. Voorhees '. ' had said: "We will collect off of tho . I foreign goods that como in so much t money as is necessary to pay the exponses of tho government. That is the ; f favored way of getting our revenue; wo are not going to tax the people curectty as we did during tne war, when our cus- - . - , '.' . i 1 . f 1 7.. goods enough to pay the. espouses of the government." Iow they have changed that policy; they used to talk cidental protection as a very proper and worthy thing. But they turned about oui :.. tutu ..j -M a.. i to tear the whole fabric down' Nobody i knew what they were going to do. vv o ffiJK tereu us m the sneiter of which wo : v,i t a ,a . t w, , ..v,, flni mn and most i ... prosperous people in tho world, was to be taken down from over our heads. , From that time to this people have been ; standing wondering, fearing, dreading : what might bo done. ! What has been done? They were ' bound to build a house they would be pleased with themselves; they were bound to build one that would stand. Instead they have constructed a build-: ing no Democrat likes. Mr. Cleveland ' does not like it. He says in effect that ; the tariff bill is a tainted and ugly thing so tainted, so unequal, so unfair that ; he would not sign it. And they had no ; sooner made that tariff bill than they ', set to work to tinker it up. My Demo- i cratic friends, my Bepublican friends, ' men of the.se shops and these farms, do ! you want this to go ani Do yon waut to continue in power a party that after one year's effort upon this qnostitm has produced a bill so unsatisfactory that they themselves began to tinker with it and amend it tho vry moment it passed? For the last year and a half times have been hard and everybody has suflered more or less, it a man hart man ey, bonds or stock, his bonds shrunk, but he had enough to live comfortably still. The farmer saw the price of his agricultural products going down from , i,Ti J iVnJT rZJ Z I a point that he had supposed was the bottom, and going down in spito of the golden promises held out in 1&3 that thoy should go up. Thing have become greatly worse, though he thought they were so bad that they must be better and was very naturally pleased with the generous promises held out to him. Not Due to the Silver Lftw. Now I want to talk about the panic a little. Everybody agrees that it has been a bitterly evil thing, and everybody ought to agree tliat the party that is responsible for it ought not to be put in power or continued in power. What brought this panic about? Just after it broke on the country in 181)3 the Democrats said it was tho Sherman bill. Mr. Cleveland said it was tho Sherman bill, he said tho bankers and the moneyed men of the country had become uneasy; our gold was going abroad and they were afraid we would come upon a "For Sheriff, Wilson Adams.

silver basis. lie said in effect if this Slienuriii bill can lw repealed promptly we sh -ill have good times at oikm. Yon nil remember that. And centres. was assembled to net upon that siny'ie ,;uestion. Everybody was jrre.-ifly "unxions lost they should do somoihiieelse. Mr. Cleveland practically said to them: "I wan! you to come ii'iirei'iur and to repeal the Sherman law, and when yon have dune that I want you to so homo at o'V'.o. " TISe Mieniian law was passed in the interest, it. was supposed, of silver, as an expression of friendliness to silver as money. A great many ptiple are clamoriiijj for free coinage of silver that rvcry man should have the right to briiitr silver that was worth 00 cents to the mint, and that the government slmuld put 11 st.nnp on it that would make it worth a dollar mid give it back to hiiu. A great many people thought that would make everybody happy. I eau see how that was a pood tiling tor the men who owned the silver mines, but not for the people generally. There was a feeling that silver h;:d not boon fairly dealt with. So the Republican party passed the Shermim bill. They Raid: "We will test this question; whether it is true that there is only a small excess of silver over what we are coining, itr.'.noo.OOO n month, produced;

whether, it this is taken up, silver will i go to an equality with gold." Weumlortook to Imy -t.'iOO.OOO onhoes every month, i mid issued paper money to pay for it. j We iravo the conntry 1 00,000, 000 more I currency by t lie Sherman law. I Mr. Cleveland said he wanted this law ' j repealed; and though the Democrats had ; I der.onnocd it in their platform, when he ( appealed to his party nearly one-half of the lfcmocrats in the house and the seaate voted again: repealing it. The lie1 publicans said: This was an expert- ; iv.ca;-; it was the best thintt wo knew at 1 tho time; it has not done 30 groat harm i as yon think, it is not the real cau-c of ! the panic, it has failed its purpose, but j Mi'. Cleveland wants it repealed. We i will help him repeal it.' Now, my friends, about that f?lierman bill I have not much to say. I approved it and, under the same conditions existing then, I would do it again. In what a contrast the action of the Republicans in this matter was to the way our Democratic friends ilo.vlr v.'lrh the same qno?iion! When we hud a Republican administration there wcie Democrats who have since si unrely voted against ire.' coinage when tney n.-ut power to make if a law, but wow then voting for tree coinage, as ; they Mid, uuder their laeath: "lo pat ; ho pi-.sidei-t 111 a hole.

It was not only the false, but it was a cruel doci triiio to teach to our people, for it divided them; it broke up that senso of community aud common interest and kindness tliat ought to characterize our : communities. ; Now, my friends, the Democratic ! party, after constituting tho committee ; in August, ISO:!, to prepare a tariff bill ' for report at the earliest possible moment : in tho regular session in December wen; i to work on it, but tho trouble with the ! whole business has been that there is no i coherence iu the Democratic party upon i the tariff question.

Mr. Wilson, the j chairman of the ways and means committee of the hou",.', a profer.sor, is a ! man of rcxpectal ility and character. lie is a ruin, I suppose, who has studied j economy questions and is full of book I knowletlgo about tariffs. His theory was that America was fenced in, and that tne woric to ne came was to tear ttovn the fences. He, told his English friends who banqueted him in London that was tho project the Democratic party had on hand. I think tliat the report says that . . . . t. ' ,, : laughter.
