There are only two sides to ’ this money question—more mon- ‘ i • I ey or less money. What the farmer needs most • is not more confidence, but more j money—better prices for what. he inis to sell.

Grover Cleveland’s administration was ushered in by a grand ball that cost the government no less than SIOO,000. y It is scarcity of money that is causing hard times. The Sherman silver law has given us $l4O. • •■*o,ooo in money, yet the Wall street pirates say that the Sherman law is the pause of linaucial disaster. | * Cleveland sits down pretty hard on the Democratic speakers of the last campaign, when he says the “financial condition is
