Announcements of Candidates.

FOB CIRCUIT JUDGE. The Hon.U. Z. WILEY having been nominated for Appellate Judge, some lawyer of the Circuit will probably be promoted to the bench. We are authorized to announce that Simon P. Thompson of our city, a member of the bar for over thirty years and a man well known to the people of the circuit is willing to become the Republican candidate for that honor.

“I was well, I would be better; I took medicine; and here I am.” Is the reading of an old epitaph. The American people were well; never better. They took the medicine of free trade quackery, and behold their condition. And now the same political quacks who poisoned them W*lth free trade and trying to complete their work with a dose of free silver. But the treatment of Dr. McKinley of Protection and sound money is their only road to industrial and economic health.

The men employed in the varied industries of Indiana have more than 922,000,000 in life insurance policies. A large part of this money these thousands of men have paid in and it has been loaned out on mortages, bonds, etc., and it is this money power which exGovemor Boies declares must be paid off in half dollars. These men constitute a portion of the creditor class against which the controlling element of the Democratic party is making war.— lndianapolis Journal The money question ought not to be in politics at all, but, as it has been forced in, good citizens should unite, irrespective of politics, in getting it out as soon as possible by an emphatic verdict in favor of sound money.—lndianapolis Journal.

It Means Revolution.

If you mean, will the Democrats of Illinois support the free coinage of silver with full legal tender, quality for all debts, public and private, on the ratio of sixteen of silver to one of gold, I answer, no. Nor can the Democrats carry the state ou*that issue, for there are more than 100,000 Democrats in Illinois who will not submit to be transferred like chattels to the support of silver monometallism. What the Chicago’convention will resolve on that subject, or whom it will nominate for the presidency no man can predict. If the convention nominates a candidate for the presidency pledged to the support of the unlimited coinage of 1 A T 1 1 v. 4. legal wHfier silver lor an (louts, public and privrte, on the ratio of sixteen to one, it will inaugurate a business and social revolution more serious and reaching than anything known in our past, histpry, and if successful'will produce confession and embarassment to an extent that no one can fortell. What the Democrats of Illinois will do to resist this revolution I do not know, but we will not submit to it.—John M. Palmer, Democratic Senator from Illinpis.

Fall In Interest Rates.

Free silverites like Pitchfork Tillman shout themselves hoarse while denouncing the “bloatedbondholder,” the “greedy banker,” the “coupon clipper,” and the “monopolistic capitalist.” They conjure up a ghost to, fcighjben weak-minded people with —that if the gold standard is not abandonee! those people will “corner” the money supply of the world and have mankind at their mercy. According to these dismal howlers Wall street will rule America and will become the owner of all the lands and other properties. But the Tillmans and Atgelds never tell the geese who go to hear them and applaud their wild, -frothy words that the- price which the owner of money or capital receives for the use of it has been steadily decreasing for the last thirty years, so that at this time, on the average, interest is only about half what it was in 1866—thirty years ago—and the tendency is still downward in the rates of interest. Though the opportunities for using money in this country are so much greater than they were thirty years ago, there being ten modes of employing it now where there was one then, the supply of capital—gold capital at that —has incieased so much more rapidly than the demand that the owner of capital can get for its use but half what he got thirty years ago. Some Eastern ""railroads are extending their 7 per cent bonds which are falling due now, and they are doing it at the rate of 4 per cent and others at 4| per cent; and the holders of the securities are glad to accept the reduced rates, though their incomes from them are cut down over a third.

An exceptionally strong road like the Pennsylvania can get money now at 3| per cent. Twenty years ago it had to pay 6 per cent, interest on the bonds sold. What is true of railroads is true of private individuals. It is as true of Western as of Eastern borrowers. Money is cheaper in this city by 40 per cent than it was twenty years ago. The man who had to pay 10 per cent when he mortgaged his land pays only 5 to 6 now. When old loans have been extended it has been done at reduced rates—rarely higher than 6 per cent, but mostly at 5 or s|. The rate of interest for the use of capital is falling as the wealth of the world is increasing, and the rate will sink gradually from now on, so that a generation hence the price paid at this time for the use of money will seem surprisingly high. And this money for twenty years has been on the gold basis of value. When the consideration paid for the use of money decreases, money can be said to have become cheaper. But that is not the kind of cheapness Altgeld, Bland, Boies <fc Co. have in view. The “cheap money” they want is money with only one-half as much purchasing power as at present. Their model dollar is to have the intrinsic value of 371 J grains of silver —which is 53 cents. They say that the American dollar is a 200 cent coin and that the man who has borrowed and had the use of a thous-

and such dollars need only pay back a thousand dollars which have only half the purchasing power of those he borrowed, and they pretend to be honest men who advocate this rascally dishonesty. Altgeld’s “cheap money” can be secured only by cheating and swindling and breaking contracts. Real cheap money —money of full gold purchasing power, which can be hired or rented on low terms of interest, comes with the gradual accumulation of capital whose owners complete with one another to find investments for it, ami not by debasing or watering it.

Poor Man’s Money.

These is a great deal said by the advocates of free silver about “ihe poor man’s money,” and they argue as if it were an atrocious crime against the poor, or the people of small means, that the free coinage of silver was stopped. They call gold the money of the rich and silver the money of the poor, and they speak of “dear dollars” and “cheap dollars,” and they endeavor to convince the workingmen that “cheap dollars” are the best for them. To what extent these fallacious arguments convince the people to whom they are addressed is difficult to say, but the iucessaut reiteration of them shows that they must have some force. Of qourse, any person who reflects upon the subject must know that there cannot be two kinds of money in circulation, one f<?r the poor and one for the rich. That cheap money and dear money, cannot exist and that the cheap will drive out the dear. This is the inviolable law of finance, proved by our own experience and by the experience of every civilized natiofi on earth. But suppose it werepot so and that cheap money atid-dear money in other words, unlimited silver and gold, could circulate side by side, why should the poor man be put off with cheap money? Why is he not entitled to the best? When he is paid for his day’s work why should he not be paid in the money that will buy him the most of the necessaries and

comforts of life? Governor Altgeld and the logicians of his school say that the gold standard dollar is a 200-cent dollar. Very well. If a man works for a dollar a day why should he not be paid with this 200 cent dollar? It will bay him twice as much as the silver or 100cent dollar, and there is no reason why he should not vote for it and have it. It Is true that both Hamilton and Jefferson in their reports and discussions on the coinage, in which they agreed, spoke ot the “poor man’s money,” but by this they meant not “cheap” money but small coins, because the transactions of the poor are are made iu small sums, for which small coins are needed. For that reason they advocated the coinage of cents and dimes and other coins less than a dollar. But they never spoke of “cheap” money at all. Let not, then, the’laborer and the Workingmen be deluded by this foolish talk about cheap money. They should have tne best, not the cheapest and poorest.— Times-Herald.
