FRIDAY, JULY 17, 1896.

SOUND money Democrats in Washington are practically a unit in favor of holding another 'convention. It is. believed the Administration will use its influence in that direction.

THE summer meeting of the Republican Editorial Association will be held at Lafayette on Thursday, July 23. This will be a purely business meeting and plans for the campaign will be discussed.

THE Louisville Times announces that it is off for the woods—that it "will not—cannot—advocate the adoption and acceptance by the American people of the Populistic, Anarchistic, unDemocratic and anti-Democratic measures and men presented for endorsement by the Chicago convention."

THE Chicago Chronicle says there is no possibility of a free silver victory in Chicago, in Cook county or in Illinois. The nominee of the Chicago convention is beaten as surely as if the returns were already in. He will lose the State by 100,000 votes. Let the fanatics who believe otherwise mark the prediction.

HENRY WATTERSON, from across the sea, sends this 'brief but ringing mesBige to "Walter N. Haldeman, President of the Courier-Journal Company:

Another ticket our only hope. No compromise with dishoner. Stand firm. HENRY WATTESON.

These words will be read with the widest and the deepest interest by all Conditions of politicians and people.

M'KIXLKY-S KEYNOTE. On the day the "Chicago convention adjourned, and in less than an hour after it closed, the Thirty-second Ward Foraker Club of Cleveland arrived in Canton 300 strong, with their wives and daughters. They marched at once to Major McKinley's residence. After a presentation address Major McKinley said:

My Fellow Citizens: Recent events have imposed upon the patriotic people of this country a responsibility greater than the civil war. Then it was a struggle to preserve the Government of the United States now it is a struggle to preserve the honor of the Government. Then it was a contest to save the Union now it is a contest to save its spotless credit. Then section was arrayed against section now men of all sections can unite, and will unite, to rebuke the repudiation of our obligations and the debasement of our currency. In this contest patriotism is above party and national honor is dearer than any party name. The currency and credit of the Government are good now, and must be kept good forever. Our trouble is not with the character of the money that we have, but with the threat to debase it. We have the same currency that we had in 1892, good the world over and unquestioned by any people. Then, too, we had unexampled credit and prosperity. Our difficulty now is to get that money in circulation and invested in productive enterprises which furnish employment to American labor. -This is impossible with the distrust that hangs over the country at the present time, and every effort to make our dollars or any one of them worth less than 100 cents each only serves to increase the distrust. What we want is a sound policy, financial and industrial, which will give courage and confidence to all, for when that is done the money now unemployed because of fear for the future and lack of confidence in investment will quickly appear in the channels of trade.

Gentlemen, the employment of our idle money, the idle money that we already have, in gainful pursuits, will put every idle man in the country at work, and when there is work there is wages, and when there are work and wages there are consumers, who constitute the best market for the product of our soil. Having destroyed business and confidence by a free trade policy, it is now proposed to make things still worse by entering upon an era of depreciated currency. Not content with the inauguration of the ruinous policy which has brought down the wages of the laborer and the price of farm products, its advocates now offer a new policy, which will diminish the value of the money in which wages and products are paid. Against both of these we stand opposed. Our creed embraces an honest dollar, an untarnished national credit, adequate revenues for the uses of the Government, protection to labor and industry, preservation of the home market, and reciprocity which will extend our foreign markets. Upon this platform we stand, and submit its declaration to the sober and considerate judgment of the American people.

The above speech is a gem, and de serves to be preserved as a little classic of polished eloquence. Every Republican in the land should commit it to memory.

EVILS TO HE EXPECTED. George D. Boulton, manager of the foreign exchange department of the First National Bank of Chicago, has written a letter to Charles Morgan, postmaster at Barrie, N. D., in answer to a request for an explanation of the financial question, from which we make the following extract:

1

One of the most urgent motives of the silver party is that they want cheap money. By that I suppose they mean money they can borrow cheaply or earn cheaply. Now the cheapest money in the world is in the strongest gold country—viz., England. The dearest money in the world is in the silver countries. For example, money in London to-day is 2 per cent, per annum, while money in Mexico, China, Chile, Spain, India, and in fact all silver countries of the world, commands a loaning value of from 12 per cent, upward. Money in our own Eastern States, where the community is committed to gold, is 2 per cent, to 5 per cent. in our Western silver States, 10 per cent, to 15 per cent.

In the other gold countries of Europe, while money is not so low as in England, nevertheless the rate varies from 3 per cent, to 5 per cent, to the borrower.

I may cite as a good example of the two currencies two States adjoining one another in South America—one British Guiana, a gold country with money at 4 to 6 per cent, per annum the other Venezuela, with like soil and climate conditions, a silver country, where interest rules at 10 to 12 per cent, per annum.

Should we depart from a gold basis Europe would undoubtedly send in all the currency securities—that is, securities that may be paid in anything but gold—to us, requiring an export of either gold or its equivalent in trade. If it takes gold it takes that much of our money circulation. If it takes merchandise it takes that at a largely reduced value. The consequence would be that shrinkage in money circulation would run into very large figures, while we could not put out silver or certificates sufficient to take their place for many months or years, so that during the next three or four years, instead of the circulation increasing, as silverites hope, it would materially decrease. After a lapse ot years, no doubt, by putting their printing presses and the mints to work, they could largely inflate our currency with new issues.

Currency depletion means low prices for labor and everything else. Currency at a fair rate per capita means prosperity. Curreacy inflation means danger again.

Going back into history we find Europe using largely gold and silver together. With the expanson of trade one country after another found by sad experience their inability to keep two values on a parity. England was the first to depart from this custom, then Germany, France, Holland, Belgium, Italy, Austria, and, last of all, Chile. It was from no prejudice on their part, but from the requirements of trade that this course was taken.

We can only have one standard, be it of gold, silver or anything else, and the experience of the world has been that gold was the best. Again, where the country is most sound on its currency question you will find the highest civilization. Where money is debased, or is other than the recognized standard of the world, civilization is on a much lower plane. We can find at the present time no silver country in the world, I think I might say without exception, that is in a prosperous condition, whose government securities command respect and full prices in the markets of the world, while the reverse may be said regarding the securities of gold countries. This almost, too, without exception.

Looking at the matter from an intellectual standpoint, we find arrayed on the gold side the high intelligence of England, France, Germany, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Norway, Swedon and Canada, and the gold party in this country. On the other side we find an inferior grade of intelligence, an absence of publij schools, and a lower plane of morality, as in Spain, Portugal, South American States, Mexico. China, etc. On which side shall we array ourselves?

Of course you understand it is not the intention of the party in power, or the gold party to disturb the present silver circulation of the country, which is now 5500.000,000. There is no desire to demonetize that.

On the other hand, the whole contention is that all our circulation shall be kept on a parity with the gold standard, and that this 500.000,000, instead of being reduced in value, will remain equal to gold anywhere.

Borrowers throughout the country will have to recognize the fact that undoubtedly they will have to pay more for loans with silver ruling than they now do with gold.

Again if gold remains the standard, and we give our indorsement of the principle that we believe it the only standard for us, the money markets of the world will be open to us, and instead of having to pay a high rate for money borrowed, the chances are we will have to a very much reduced rate —less than that which even now prevails.

It is estimated that London alone has many hundred rnillions of idle money in it banks waiting for this matter to be settled, and it will undoubtedlv be released and used to a large extent on this side, if we commit ourselves unequivocally to the recognized standard of European nations. The course of events will be, if we make the change in accordance with the platform of the silver people, that in November, as soon as the silver President is elected, there can be no doubt at all but Europe will return our securies in large amounts. For these we have to pay gold or its equivalent.

This will entail a.large export of the gold we now hold or of commodities. Gold will at once advance to a substantial premium. No legislation can probably be made by Congress until well along in the summer of 1897, during which period our circulation will be very largely depleted by export and hoarding. The return of our securities has got to be at very much below the present valuation ruling on our stock exchange—probably 15 per cent to as or 50 per cent

If we can avoid a serious panic dur ing such a crisis we may regard ourselves as fortunate.

Under the most favorable circumstances we must look for great disturbances in value to all classes, a disorganization of labor and a hardening of money and general financial trouble, which will be felt by all classes, whether the farmer, the laborer, the mechanic or capitalist.

Capital can always take care of itself and will feel the trouble the least, as it can largely unload its burdens onto others.

Now, legislation in favor of silver, when it comes, must be at least from nine months to a year off, and at the best it cannot do anything which will speedily restore our circulation to its normal amount per capita, as it takes time to coin silver, the capacity of our mints at .present being only about 55,000,000 a month or §60,000,000 a year.

The following can almost be taken as axioms: No silver country is prosperous.

No silver country has a stable and firm government. No silver country has its government securities at par.

No silver country has good public school facilities. In a general way the reverse can be stated with regard to gold countries.

THE Chicago Chronicle ruthlessly tears the mask from Candidate Bryan's celebrated speech in the Coliseum convention which made him the nominee for President. It says the speech had been carefully prepared and rehearsed, as an actor would rehearse the lines of a play. The same speech was delivered three weeks before at Crete, Nebraska. It contrasts this prepared speech with his extemporaneous efforts at the Clifton House after his nomination which had neither grace nor dignity.

THE Argus-News has flopped. It has been a sound money paper, but it is now an out and out organ of the Chicago Populistic platform and ticket. The attractiveness of the Art/us-News lies in its uncertainty. Its readers become fascinated with itV constant change of policy, 'never knowing one day where the paper will be found the next upon any given proposition.

Another Marshal Murdered. Marshal Ab Holmes, of Cayuga, Fountain county, was shot and instantly killed Tuesday afternoon about 1 o'clock by Alf Campbell. From the facts learned in the case the murder must have been a most atrocious and cold blooded affair. Campbell had been drinking excessively, and was raising a d'cturbance in Groenkyke's store. He had tipped over a box of vegetables on the porch in front of the store, and when Marshal Holmes attempted to arrest him Campbell pulled a revolver from his pocket and shot Holmes. The bullet entered his abdomen and caused instant death. Campbell fied immediately after the shooting and was pursued by a posse of enraged citizens. The last seen of the murderer he was swimming across the Wabash river.
