fort. Time wore on. The Europeon
and American bullionists bought up
the leaders of both cur great parties
and they have undertaken TO cry down
the money that saved the country,
that payed the soldier. That bought ev-
erything there was for sale, congress
men included. and it became Mr..
Blaine's duty to again appear in Show
hogan. But this time on a most
contemplate errand. Standing UP
before this same people, with a siver
half dollar in one hand and q paper
half dollar in the other. he told them
that one was money and the other was
only q rag And at that very hour
the ''rag" would buy more gold than
would the silver. Poor Blaine! It
was pitiable, and the people shuddered
at the sickening sight, and could only
exclaim, .How are the mighty fall
en- =
It is indeed laughable to look back
and contrast the clamors for ''hard
money made two years ago, by the
Republican politicians, with the terri
BILE efforts now being made to destroy
silver money, which is ''harder'' than
gold.
Never have q set of lying knaves

the greenback theory. The same is
true of republicans whose financial
views were not in accord with thatof
their party, and who east the greater
portion Of the ZOO vote which Allis
received in the state.
In fact. the feeling on the money
question was SO Intense throughout

probably true Of the rest of the state,
that the currency plank in the Demo

the wholesale conversion of Republi.

4 common falacy WAS well answer.
ed at the great Chicago mass meeting
by Judge Lawrence. 1t is claimed
that the payment Of the bonds in silver
would impair the nations credit. Up
on this point Judge Lawrence said:
If that were true, I should say that,
50 long as we are right and just, our
power to borrow money at low rate
Of interest abroad is of vastly less con-
sequence than the preservation of our
people at home from ruin and Starya-
ton. But the proposition is not true.
II is a most transparent fallacy. All
there is of truth in the assertion is
simply this, that bonds which are pay
able ngold or silver at our option will
not sell for so much IN the present
state Of the markets as u bond payable
only III gold. But that is only imma-
terial. If we can. sell per. cent
gold bond at par abroad in gold, we
can sell per cent silver bond at par
abroad in silver, and if the silver thus
