CLEVELAND'S VIEWS.
Words of Sober Admonition Written 1) the J/residrnt to C'liieaijo I'I'IOIHIH Last April.
In answer to an invitation to address a meeting of Chicago buniness men last April, President Cleveland wrote ti letter expressing regret- at his inability to be present, in tho course of which lie 6aid: -'.xi---"Tho situation confronting ns demands that thoso •who appreciate tho importance of this subject and thoso who ought to be tho first to seo the impending danger should no longer remain indifferent or overconfident. If the sound money sentiment abroad in the land is to save us from mischief and disaster, it must be crystallized aud combined and made immediately active. It is dangerous to overlook tho fact that a vast number of our peoplo, with scant opportunity thus far to examine the question in all its aspects, have nevertheless been ingeniously pressed with specious suggestions, which in this time of misfortune and depression find willing listeners, prepared to give credence to any scheme which is plausibly presented as a remedy for their unfortunate condition. "What is now needed more than anything else is a plain and simple presentation of the argument in favor of sound money. In other words, it is a time for the American people to reason together as members of a great Nation, which can promise them a continuance of protection and safety only so long as its solvency is unsuspected, its honor unsullied and the soundness of its money unquestioned. These things are ill-ex-changed for the illusions of a debased currency and groundless hope of advantages to be gained by a disregard of our financial credit and commerieal standing among the nations of the world. "If our people were isolated from all others, and if the question of our currency could be treated without regard to our relations to other countries, its character would be a matter of comparatively little importance. If the American people were only concerned in the maintenance of their physical life among themselves, they might: return to the old days of barter, and in this primitive manner acquire from each other the materials to supply the wants of their existence. But if American civilization were satisfied with this, it would abjectly fail in its high and noble mission. "In these restless days, the farmer is tempted by the assurance that, though our currency may be debased, redundant and uncertain, such a situation will improve the price of his products. Let us remind him that we must buy as well as sell that his dreams of plentv are shaded by the certainty that if the price of the things he litis to sell is nominally enehaiiced, the cost of things he must buy will not remain stationary that the better prices which cheap money proclaims are unsubstantial and elusive, and that even if they were real and palpable lie must necessarily be leftfar behind in the race for their enjoyment. "It ought not- to be difficult- to convince the wage-earner that if there were benefits arising from a degenerated currency, they would reach him least of all and last of all. In tin unhealthy stimulation of prices, an ii creased cost of all the needs of his lioni" must long be his portion, while he is at tho same time vexed with vanishing visions of increased wages and an easier lot. The pages of history and experience are full of this lesson.
All Classes interested*
"An insidious attempt is made to ere ate a prejudice against the advocates of a safe and sound currency by the insinuations, more or less directly made, that they belong to financial and business classes aud arc, therefore, not only out of sympathy with the common people of the land, but-, for selfish and wicked purposes, are willing to sacrifice the interests of those outside their circle. I believe that capital and wealth, through combination and other means, sometimes gain an undue advantage and it must be conceded that the maintenance of a sound cuiTency may. in a sense, bo invested witli a greater or less importance to individuals, according to their condition and circumstances. It is, however, only a difference in degree, since it is utterly impossible that any one in our broad hind, rich or poor, whatever may be his occupation, and whether dwelling in a center of finance and commerce, or in a remote corner of our dov.utiu, can be really benefitted by it financial scheme not alike beneficial to all our people, or that any one should be excluded from a common and universsd interest in the safe character aud stable value of the currency of the country. "In our relation to this question, we are all in business, for wo all buy and sell so we all have to do with financial operations, for we all earn money and Kpend it. We can not escape ottr interdependence. Merchants and dealers are in every neighborhood, and each has its shops and_ manufactories. Wherever the wants of man exist, business and finance in some "degree are found, related in one direction to those whose wants they supply aud in another to the more extensive business and finance to which they are tributary. A fluctuation in prices at the seaboard is known the same day or hour in tho remotest
hamlet. The discredit or depreciation in the financial centers of any form of money in the hands of the peoplo is :i signal of immediate loss everywhere. 11 reckless discontent anil wild experiment should sween our currency from its safe support, the most defenseless

the
poor,
as they
reckon the loss in their scanty support, and the laborer and workingnian, as he sees the money he has received for his toil shrink and shrivel in his hand when he tenders it for the nccossancs to supply his humble home. "Disguise it as we mav, the lino of battle is drawn between the forces of safe currency and thoso of silver monometallism. I will not believe that, if our people are afforded an intelligent opportunity for sober second thought, they will sanction schemes that, however cloaked, mean disaster and confusion, nor tnat they will consent-, by undermining the foundation of a safo currency, to endanger the beneficent character and purposes of their government. \7ours very truly. ircovmt Cr/nvr.L.wo."

He is a self-made man, having by strict atter tion to business become possessed of one of the finest homes in the state and a 500-acre farm that hasn't a bad piece of fence on it.

Honoring Silver.
From the Ironloii Register.
We, saw in a dingy Democratic paper that the Republican party intended" to do away with silver. What a falsehood! The Republican party furnished till the silver dollars there tire—500,000,000 of them made 'hem to passcurrent as good as gold and proposes to stand by them and keep them so. It proposes to keep as much silver afloat as gold it has done so will do so. The Republican party is the only friend silver has. The policy of its adversaries is to bwer it to detract from its worth to make it one thing one day and anotheithe next, and thus make it unreliable^' vliere reliability is demanded.
"It. is said that silver is tie poor man's money. It is
.110
more tlu poor mail's
money than it is tho money of smaller transactions, and, the transiction of the poorer class of peoplo being generally small, it is the money almost exclusively used by them, and theret'010 I want it to be as good as the dollar (hat is used by the rich man."—Wr. D. Bynuni. at New York, Sept. 22.

A GRAND OLD DEMOCRAT.
Who lii'piutiati'* tin- riiirno,, f.,n ami Mippurls I' ll lin-r .mil Uiu-kilT. Frederick K. Couilert is a New York Democrat who, if lie would have accepted, mi} lit have had any place within tile iTift of tlie people of In? sitate any time the past twenty-five years. He is probably the most famous lawyer in the l.Tnited States and almost equally celebrated as nil orator and a pubMeist. In ail the divisions of the people of New York durin -V the life of the present frenerntion Mr. Oouilorl.'s advice has been sought and heeded by thousands of his admiring' fellow citizens. When President Cleveland prevailed 011 him to be 1 member of the Venezuela commission men of all parties joined in pronouncing it an ideal appointment.
Mr. Coutiert hus been to Home, Italy, investisauiKT certain archives for the commission. Returninu: a few days uKO he pive to the New York newspapers his views of the present polit'eal situation in the United States and of the leolinjr of foreisn-M'S who ovi property o- think of investing' in this country, lie said: "The scare which followed Bryan's nomination has rviven way to confidence that American credit will be maintained. To my mind the Chiearo platform is diabolical. Tho attack on the supremo court, of the United States is absolutely numvarranted. The whole platform is a squinting at anarchy. I cannot supoort the nominees who stand on it. The greatest danger of the Chicago platform is that it rests on sectional lines." "How about tiie Indianapolis platform and the nomination of i'almer and KiieknerV" "It is good," replied Tdr. Coudert. "At the Chicago convent ion, after tiie nomination of .llrvan, a prominent southern d.-leirale came to me .and sail that a third ticket was absolutely essential. He said that, tiie old line Democrats of the south could not vote for McICinloy that they would not want to vo'e for Hryan, but that between the two they would vote for I'.ryan unless they were triven another candidate. "N'ow they have a candidate who is a Democrat and for whom they c"i vote. I think the third party ticket w' surely play an important part in tl defeat of Bryan." -.
GOLD BACKS THEM.
And Ibis Is t.b«- Ontv lli-a-on Wliy Standard Silver Dollars at. I'ar. It is clet?" that the reason that the silver dollars pass I'm- 10' cents today is because the government is behind hem with sold, by special act of congress, and not because they bear tiie stamp of the government. The stamp only certii'es that they are issued by the L'nited States government, and is a guarantee that they contain 412',2 grains of standard silver. Under a free coinage act the government would buy no silver bullion nor coin any silver dollars for its own account, but only coin them for the silver mine owners and any one bringing silver bullion to the mint, not a dollar of which would go into the United States treasury, but would be given to the parties bringing the bullion, and would be coined at the expense of the government.
Therefore the government would not be under any obligation, either legal or moral, to redeem dollars coined on individual account, and would not assume any obligation to do so. No party proposes that it should or would do so, and under free coinage it never did do so.
Therefore the silver dollar would have nothing behind it hut its bullion value and would be in the same condition as the Mexican dollar. The reason the Mexican dollar can be bought today in "Wall street at 53 cents is because the'Mexican government does not stand behind it and does not promise to do so, and not because of its inability to do so. The quest ion of the relative abil it of the United States government and the Mexican government to keep silver dollars at a par with gold is not at issue, as neither of them promises to do so under free coinage, and the silver dollars of both would have nothing behind them but their bullion value. —George K. Rogers.
Gold Dors Not Iinand !oIn-i£ '. Mr. Bryan said at Portland: "We are for gold as well as silver, but hold that gold should not demand a monopoly of coinage." Cold does not demand coinage. It is worth as much in the market as at the mint, quite regardless of ottr mint valuation. London, Paris, Berlin. St. Petersburg. Calcutta. Shanghai and Yokohama would gladly take all our frohl. They clamor and compete for it. It has a world-value. Whatever wo coin is more to tiie benefit of the government and th" country than to the gold producers. The silver trust is in a very different position. It demands the privilege of taking SI cents' worth of its bullion to the mint and having it stamped as a legal-ten-der. 100-oent dollar at the people's expense.— New York World.

LESSON IN SILVER.
Olijirct I.rssfin IU Ilf* Hail Out of ,T.-ijiancHc l^xpl-rn'iic.-. There is object lesson to he had out of the oxpuricnee of the .i,'.i.anei:e, in frr silver coinage, which tin 1 wry effective in the slate of California ill clearing uji the doubts of the workingmen on the i-oinufje uuestimi.
The Japanese yen contains u'T-l.TS grains of silver. The American thihnr contains uV ^5. The Japanese $10
piece contains grains of pure uld, while 'he American $1.0 yoUl pi'-ee contains 2 grains. The weights, therefore, are quite alik". .Japan legally keeps tiie Lti to 1 ratio.
If, however, you enter any one of the exchange 's?h«.ps i" Tokio, Yokohanfa, Kobe or Xayasaki, and hand over a $10 Japanese tfold piece, or an American t:L0 sol-.i piece, the d"aler will return to you without hesitation and as a matter of busineus, not ton silver dollars, hut in silver. If you hand him ten silver duilar:: and ask for RO11 he returns to you about $5 in gold. In spite of the ratio of 30 to j, established by l:n\\ the dealing is put entirely on the commcrcial'-ratio, and no one disputes it.

Many ind-istrious and honest workmen believe that a government has the power to and can control the ratio between the metals. IJut when they clearly comprehend that the prreut Japanese nation, cannot do it, it opens their eyes. Moreover, Japan is almost entirely independent of foreign nations, so far as imports are concerned. The people live on the home markets, and export much more than they Import.—Correspondence of the New York Post.
