The game that England is playing for low priced American products and by permitting her to dictate our financial system she is securing them. When you hear a man harping on the old string "silver is a depreciated currency,” set hifti ( down on your scratch book as a knave, a fool or a parrot. If scarcity of a metal makes it my better for coinage into money, why not try gallium. It is the most pre< ions of metals, be- j ihg worth >54.250 an ounce. The Democrats say the Republicans did it, and the Republicans say the Democrats did it. but neither party seems to be exerting itself much to undo it., Russell Sage says this Is a "mild panic." It may be mild for the fellow who has plenty of money, like Col. Sage, but it is rigorous on the fellow who is short.
The sole object of the leaders of the two old parties is to discover some form of a .political opiate to administer to the people while the work of robbery goes on. It Senator Voorhees really lavors bi-metalism as he would :uve us believe, why does he object to any provision being added tohis bi’l that would bring about bi-melalism. An ounce of silver will buy about as much now as it ever Would. An ounce of gold will buy more than twice as much as it would some twenty years ago. This being the case, has silver depreciated or has gold appreciated?
I is now plain to be seen that, one of the objects in precipitat-l mg the panic was to secure legislation more favorable to the ’ national banks. The increase of their currency to par with the bonds they hold will be one of the first steps in that direction. While Congressman Bland con tinues to do business at his old stand it is not worth while for the populists to waste any time in showing up the inconsistencies and hypocrisy of the I)e----moeratic party. Mr. Bland's speeches should be assiduously circulated. Another favorite argument against increasing the volume of money in circulation is that from ninety-five per cent, of the business transacted is done by means of checks and drafts. Aot it takes hard cash to buy a draft oi' cash a check. You cannot do it with “confidence.” fl he great fear at present seems to be that gold will be driven out of the country. How many readers of the Democrat ever saw a gold piece? How many of them pay their debts and receive what is due them in gold? Very few, indeed. The business of this country is not 1 ransacted with gold and all the balderdash concerning that metal is an insult to the average business man of this country, who has to do business with silver, greenbacks, national bank notes, etc. If half the care and anx- . iety were expended for silver or even for birch leaves that is chown for gold, either would be jully as valuable as money.— Mon licello Democrat.
After congress demonetises silver let it pass an act exempt' ing all millionaires' protjerty from taxation, reestablish the old law of hnpnsonaiont for debt, then will its wickedness be ■ complete and "the people ever I lastingly be damned.” t About all that Is developed by •the discussion of the ItioA is that the great industrial I army of worst's is behind the, free silver men. and the money !pirates of America and England ’.arc behind the anti-silver i And that ought *to wellie it. Il is a favorite cry of those ■ who oppose an increase in the ' ’Volume of money, that there is ; just as much money in the conn-1 try now as there ever Was. ! Well, suppose ih*t Vo be true, 1 can sixty-five millions of people) do business on the same amounts of money that half that number can?
The Vi lobe-Democrat says. "We are largely exporting silver and importing gold/' tn other words we MY Selling a product which WC hftXm wilfully made cheaper and buying a product which wo have made jdear. Any kind of a ninny can ’see the folly of it, but the G-D. calls that skilful financiering.
If congress relieves the people at all it will be by legislation placing 'more money in circulation. If this is done, when the people begin to feel the effects of better times, they win remember that t his was the stone Which the populists offered, which the builders rejected, and which is now "become the head of the corner.” See'? The Philadelphia Evening Item sums the financial problem up very briefly. It says: "Let us have lots of money in circulation, no matter what kind, so that the government is back of it. Plenty of money means general prosperity.” If it had only added, “without the intervention of banks,” it would have been square on the Populist platform.
The vote in the house last week showed that the Republicans lacked only 20 of being unanimously with Cleveland, while 97 Democrats voted square against him. In the senate, Hill, Vance, Vest and Cockerell, the great Democratic lights of that body, are anti-Cleveland, while Sherman, Aldrich, Allison and their like are, with Dan Voorhees, the administration’s right hand men. It is now apparent to the whole country that it will be an easy matter for the Democrats to repeal the Sherman law by the enactment of such silver legislation as is suggested in the Democratic platform adopted at Chicago. It is the effort to dodge the pledges there made that causes the present delay. In the meantime the people will not forget that the whole responsibility rests with the Democratic party.
The Republicans in congress want it understood that they are in favor of both gold and silver as money but under an international agreement. We would suggest to them that they get up a bill providing for free coinage. with a tariff clause in it. Said clause providing for a tariff which shall at all times equal the difference, in bullion value, between a gold and a silver dollar. Such a clause might bring John Bull to terms. For the last thirty years an ounce of silver has about equaled in value one bushel of wheat in the New York market. It has maintained the same relative value when corn posed with other staple articles. Twenty years ago an ounce of gold bought sixteen bushels of vzheat. Now it will buy more than thirty bushels, or about double the amount of any other article of daily consumption. This being the case, has silver depreciated or has gold appreciated in value.
Washington Letter.
( From onr rejnlar correaoondiMlL Washington, Sept. 1, 189$. | Some Very interesting finance! I speeches are now a feature of ’every fiat’s *Vs*toh of the Senate! but the speeches made tn several executive session? this i week, although net SO carefully ; prepared-. threw a great deal , mdW light upon the silver situal don as it actually i« tMft de those made for phbl’ichdoh ih thb •Record ” Those people who we talking abedl the probability of a vote being reached tn the senate on the Voorhees Mil tor the unconditional repeal of the ■Sherman *d\br law in two weeks am shhply, in the language Of ’the street, “talking through ■ their hats/’ likewise O'oE’d who say that the tilg majority by which the repeal bill passed the house will make its passage by the senate certain. The «i</br senators haVe plainly ’stated to the unconditional repealers, in e-xdvhtive session, that if they cannot out-vote them they can prevent a vote being taken, and< that they intend doing so bideft-' nitely; also that they will have the *«j.pport of th'eir constituents th resorting to every expedient to prevent a vote. That is the exact "situation. * * * Congressmen from the W.cific coast have been trying to get Secretary Or’isle to enforce the Geary Chinese act, but they are all met with the same thing, “no money. This week Senator Dolph introduced a bill appropriating $500,000 to carry out the provisions of the act, and gave notice of his intention to make a speech thereupon in the near future. *r -XTwo members of the house did not vote on the Wilson repeal bill. They were Representatives Boatner, of Louisiana, and Capehart, of West Virginia. Rumor says the telegraphic comments which a number of members have received from their homes have made them wish they had not voted, or at least had not voted as they did.
* * * The government departments in Washington are literally on a gold basis, as nearly all of them paid their employes this week in gold coin. Various reasons are given, none of them official, as to why gold is being paid out by Uncle Sam. Some say it is because of the scarcity of available paper currency in the treasury, and others that it is a part of a plan to coax the hoarded gold of the country into circulation. * «• * Senator Hill’s recent dashes in which he broke the party leading strings and asserted his independence have made him a much talked about man, and a much abused man, and some of those who might reasonably be expected to approve any act of independence on the part of any senator are the loudest in the>r abuse. Senator Hill, although very much in the minority, has no occasion to feel ashamed of his language concerning the Stewart resolution asking for information from the secretary of the treasury, as to a rumored probable deficit for the present fiscal year. He said: “I stand here to-day where I stood the other day, where I shall stand to the end, no matter how much my position may be assailed—that any senator in this body, who offers a respectful resolution on a question of this character, asking for information from an officer of the government, ought to have it. I can see no valid, no tenable, objection to the passage of this resolution, and I shall continue upon that line if it takes all summer, or all the fall.” Only sixteen senators agreed with Mr. Hill, while forty voted to bury the resolution by referring it to the finance committee. Senator Stewart raised a smile while this discussion was going on, when asked by Senator McPherson, if he did not know that the Democratic party was in power in the senate and responsible for legislation, by replying: “No, Ido not know that. I know that the gold party is in power. There seems to be more administration men on this (the Republican) side than on the Democratic side. We hear more eulogy of the administration from this side than from the other.” * * * Upon a number of occasions during the session crowds have assembled in the galleries of the house expecting to hear and see something existing, only to be disappointed, and when the most exciting episode of the session—the impromptu word duel be-
