“WEALTH, CULTURE, BRAINS,”

These Three, but the Greatest of Them Is Wealth, and They Form “the T rinity of the Republic's T rue and Only Hope,” Our “Rightful but Beleagured Aristocracy.”

FOR “A GENTLEMAN” SAYS SO.

A lively controversy bus been waged In the Correspondence column of the New York Journal for several weeks, between an advocate of the gold standard who signs himself “A Gentleman,” and several friends of Bryan and Silver Restoration who were quick to take up the lance against the impudent assumptions of the goldite. The dispute, however, is now probably at an end, for upon the publication of the following letter from “A Gentleman” iu the Journal of Sept. 24, his opponents doubtless concluded it a waste of lather to devote further attention to him. Here is his remarkable communication: "A OtuitleiuanV Htunarktible Letter. To the Editor of the Journal: Were my mind not matured by study and reflection, and so possessed of that balance which renders one superior to the evanescent Rales of popular fury, I should certainly be in some danger of losing my temper at this time. The extremely abusive and unpleasant letters which you are pleased to publish In relation to my coinmunications in your paper—and permit : me to say that you might easily tie iu a more dignified business than pandering to * the passions and prejudices of the mob— j are but samples of hundreds that have reached me personally through your office. And what, after all, is my offense! I have said that the lower orders are incapable, without the instruotion of their betters in brain nnd social position, intelligently to use the franchise. I have said it is better for themselves and the country that their votes should be controlled by purchase and gentle coercion, rather than that they should be allowed in their ignorance to go to the bnllotbox and vote for Bryan, free silver, repudiation, national dishonor and the despoilment of the upper classes, who represent about all there is of civilization among us. I have said that I cordially approve of the measures taken by that broad minded, resolute and patriotic man, Mark Hanna, to prevent the triumph of anarchy and socialism, which demagogue Bryan’s election would be. Cue would think from the brutal aud scandalous manner in which I am assailed ou all hands that I personally am responsible for the following existing facts: 1. The Inferior mentality of the average mechanic, farmer and laborer, which inferior mentality unfits him for that citizenship he is almost sure to misuse unless he is guided by those who are his betters in intellect and knowledge. 2. The creation of the public safety fund, amounting to many millions of dollars, which has been contributed by the best and foremost citizens of the United State# and intrusted to Mr. Hanna for political use. 3. The action of sensible Republican and gold standard Democratic employers nearly everywhere in giving their employes light ou the question of the money standards and causing them to understand that a vote thrown ag ainst the common interests will be punished by discharge. Now, sir, only yokels and clodhoppers, who are no more qualified to vote upon the financial issue than they are to sit down at a gentleman's table ami conduct themselves like polished members of polite society, can possibly misunderstand my position. Obviously I did not create the facts which 1 have enumerated. I have simply given public expression to my ap- I proval of F’acts 2 and 3. And I am proud to say that in this atti-1 tude of approval I am in the very best of company. In all my friendly intercourse with Mr. Hanna, which has extended over some years, I have never detected in him a trace of that most odious of all characters—the hypocrite. What he does he does with open, manly frankness. Never in his dealings with the labor unions, In his private capacity as u capitalist, has he truckled for an instant that he might receive that poor reward of the coward and trimmer—popularity. When the lower orders invited him to war he ever willingly accepted the challenge, and for ! their blind temerity crushed them. As he j is In business, so is he in politics. Thu ' better classes, who have supplied this ! great and brave man with funds for the election of McKinley and the maintenance of the gold standard and cur national honor, know as well as I do the uses to which their generous contributions are to be put. So does our gallant standard bearer, our valllant champion against the hosts of ignorance, poverty and greed— Major William McKinley of Ohm, So does the more enlightened portion of the press, which, splendidly indifferent to party hues, has rail led to the defense of

the rightful t» * beleagured aristocracy of his unhappy 1 inntry—the aristocracy of wealth, cultu^ . and brains; three in one, one in three; the trinity of the republic’s true and only hope. And if the better classes and the patriotic portion of the press utter no demur against the wise employment of money and of guiding coercion for the furtherance of a righteous cause, why should I be made the object of vile and Insensate detraction because I join my approval to theirs! Sir, things have come to a pretty pass indeed when a gentleman who chooses to interest himself In public affairs cannot do so except at the cost of becoming a target for the foul missiles of the insolent and unlettered mob. But let me tell these ruffians of the pen that in spite of their cheap protestations of independence and self-ownership they will do us they are bid on election day or take the consequences. I am not to be deterred from voicing my opinions and doing my duty because the boots of a crowd of mudsills who ure not worthy to brush a gentleman’s coat go up against me. Neither will the great hosts of honorable aud determined men with whom I am allied in interest and sympathy be balked of their high purpose by the roars that come from the throats of the “many headed monster,” as Shakespeare, who was a gentleman at heart, notwithstanding his uni fortunate social position, so aptly denominated the rabble. The wealth of this nation, sir, is in arms. Bryan, the demagogue, may spout his her sales and rhetoric from a thousand stumps, and ins followers may cheer his low appeals to their rudimentary brains and lean pockets, but all will he in vain. The wealth of the nation, the nation’s natural ruler and guardian, has the power to defeat him and his schemes, and that power will be exerted, never fear. In the language of Mark Hanna, now the patient, silent, scornful but never Idle recipient of so much frantic and impotent abuse, “McKinley will he the next president: if we can’t elect him one way, we will another.” I am, sir, yours, with a measureless contempt for the hard-handed and soft-headed Illiterates whose insults have appeared in your columns and rained upon me by mail.

Don't Forgot the Cougrcmcn. There must be silver congressmen ae well as a silver president if the money of the constitution is to be restored.

That international bimetallism will quickly follow the election of William J. llryan as president, and the restoration of free silver coinage in the United States, is clearly demonstrated by the following letter, written August 24, 1S9G, by Prince ISbtnarck of Germany, and by the declaration of the international agricultural congress now in session at lluda-Peath, Hungary, the latter declaration being embodied in a cablegram sent by members of the congress to William J. Bryan. These declarations in favor of bimetallism, coming from such distinguished sources, cannot fail to produce the first genuine political sensation of the present campaign nnd effectively spike the republican platform and republican assertions that this country cannot change the monetary system of the world. They mean that the election of Mr. Bryan will be hailed by the great agricultural and middle classes of Europe as a key to the opening of the mills of Europe, ns well ns America, to silver ns well as gold, ami consequent relief to the paralysis which is affecting the agricultural, business and lalmring classes in Europe ns well ns in the United States. They give the lie to the goldbug argument that the present agitation will operate against international bimetallism and tear to tatters the republican platform plank which prates about the inability of the United States to take the lead in restoring the money of the people to its former place in the monetary system of the world. Prince Bismarck’s letter in favor of bimetallism was written in response to the following letter of Inquiry from Gov. Culberson, of Texas. "Austin, Tex., Aug. 10, ISOO.—Prince Bismarck: Sir—The great question of finance is now of supreme interest to the people of the United States. It is presented in various forms, but in a general way it may be said to be, first, whether the United States shall adopt the single gold standard, or, second. whether they shall adopt bimetallism, with both gold and silver ns the standard, or primary money. The argument in favor of each is well known to you, but it is particularly insisted that we should adopt the policy of bimetallism because the supply of gold in the world for coinage is Insufficient to meet the demand, or !*- cause such a standard will still further depress the values of all property. “Which, In your judgment, is the best policy to adopt—the gold standard or bimetallism—giving your reasons? “What effect. In your judgment, will the immediate adoption of bimetallism by the L’nited States have upon the cause of bimetallism in Germany, and other great commercial nations? [Signed] “C. A. CULBERSON.” “Governor of Texas.” In reply Bismarck said: “Friedrichsruhe, Aug. 24, 1*96.—Honored Sir—Your esteemed favor has been duly received. I hold that this is the very hour that would tie advisable to bring about between the nations chiefly engaged in the world’s commerce a mutual agreement in favor of the establishment of bimetallism. The United States are freer by far in their movements than any nation of Europe, ami hence, if the people of the United States should find it compatible with their interests to take independent action iu the direction of bimetallism, I cannot but believe that such action would exert a most salutary influence on the const!mmation of international agreement. [Signed] “BISMARCK.” If this is not sufficient to spike the guns of the goldbug combine, the following cablegram sent to William J. Bryan, signed by Count Alexander Karolyi, president of the Hungarian chamber cf agriculture, and 14 other officers and delegates of the international agricultural congress, in session at the capital of Hungary, and attended by delegates from every country in Europe and America, certainly is: “Itudn-lVsth, Sept. 80.- The following cable message signed by the delegates to the international agricultural congress, called at Buda I’esth by the Hungarian minister of agriculture, has been sent to William Jennings Bryan, headquarters of the democratic party, Chicago: “We, the undersigned members of the national agricultural congress, convened at Budu-Pesth, wish you success in your struggle against the domination of the creditor class, which, during the last 23 years, has secured both in America and In Europe monetary legislation destructive of the prosperity of your farmers and others. Should you be victorious in Novemlier we pledge Mirselves to spare no effort to bring immediate pressure upon our respective governments to cooperate with the government of your great nation In restoring silver to the world's currency. Wo believe t.bat, failing such restoration, gold will be at a premium throughout all Asia and South America, nnd will continue to roll the fanner equally in America nnd all Europe of the rewards from his toil, and that your election may avert from the European source the agrarian and social troubles now pending. (SlenedI “COUNT ALEXANDER KAROLYI, "President of the Hunearlan chamber of commerce, and 14 other dclcRiUes and offic-rs." This is not the voice of the money kings of London, Paris, Frankfort, Berlin nr Vienna It is the voice of millions of sons of toil in Europe, downtrodden like their brothers in America. Bismarck hears the voice and echoes it. They are looking for the free men of America to strike the first blow for liberty, nnd it will be followed by victory in the old world.

A New York Recorder special from Key West, F’la., says: One of the bloodiest encounters of the (’uban war occurred rear Bayamo, where a company of Sjmni-sh troops was ambushed, and, with one exception, completely exterminated by 400 insurgents, who formed a part of Rabi’s column. According to advices received here, the Spanish garrison has been shut up In Bayamo for several weeks by the Insurgents. Provisions and ammunitions were scarce and the commander sent word to his superior officer at Santiago de Cuba that he would be forced to surrender Bayamo unless relief came

soon.

The Spanish commander was notified that a convoy was on the way to Bayamo, and he was instructed to send out a detachment to meet it. Accordingly 150 picked Spanish troops, under Capt. Jose Perez, were ordered to meet the convoy. The Spaniards left the town expecting to meet the relief train near Bayamo. They marched til! noon without meeting the convoy, and then halted for dinner. Rabi, who was aware of the movements of the Spaniards, detached 400 men to meet the company sent out from Bayamo, while with his main body he advanced to Intercept the convoy. These 400 men fell upon the 150 Spaninrds while the latter were at dinner. The Spaniards were completely surprised, and weie cut to pieces almost before they were aware of the enemy's presence. The Ofibans, after firing one volley, rushed on the Spaniards with their machetes, and two-thirds of those killed were hacked to pieces. Only one cf the 150 escaped. He was left for dead, buti revived and. although horribly wounded, made his way back to Bayamo and told the story of the slaughter. In the meantime Rabi, with the main force, had captured the convoy, which was accompanied only by a company of Spanish volunteers, who surrendered when they saw they were surrounded. The convoy was very valuable, the (’ubans capturing 200,000 cartridges and 500 rifles, besides provisions, clothing and medical supplies.
