STAND FIRM AND BE COUNTED.
The old party leaders attempt 10 hold
the voters In their ranks by unlmagln-
able receptions which loyal men may not
conceive They employ the vllest decelv-
ers in the nation 10 slander character In
order TO prejudice the people, and hop.
ing thereby TO retain voters that they
feel convinced are about leaving the
faith. We can see but one cause and
one result In their actions. The trick
sters see 80 many leaving the old ranks
and becoming familiar with the situation
that 1t is causing the "bosses" TO become
alarmed and grow desperate Their only
resort lies in lying and bribery, while
they do their utmost in order II possible
TO retain their following. While this
desperate effort is being made on the
part Of the wire-pullers they are actually
driving many quiet voters from them who
so slow In making change, yet are be-
coming alarmed at the desperate efforts
Of the party afiillation combination. Their
object Ia not to give justice any consid-
Grafton whatever, They never allow facts
to figure in their arguments, (p) nor will
they admit Of truthful statements showing
up against them as long as they can lie
or ridicule their opponents down.
Ye demagogues whose only desire
seems to be to deceive the people with
false doctrine, let us predict that you are
in fact setting the torch to your own fu-
neral pile, while your issues are un-
worthy Of consideration. We know
whereof we write, and must state that
from personal knowledge in canvasaing
among hundreds Of our acquaintanCes,
who have formerly voted the g. o. p. tick
ct, 1t is pretty hard matter TO find a
quorum, even when combining the radi-
calls Of both the democratic and republl-
can factions. We can show you districts
for miles square that will go solid for the
peoples ticket, and when a radical is
found the average will hardly go one in
five for the continuation Of monopolistic
rule OF course there Is floating vote
and the enemy will secure the most Of
that by virtue Of Doodle and bulldozing,
yet the grand army Of producers will cut

The writer Of these lines has been
somewhat Of a partyist since 1850, and

in party promises and favored high pro-

convinced all thinking men, who have
interested themselves in the welfare Of
Americans, that almost the entire ''bak-

that he proclaimed to some extent for a
period Of about five years in the seven

listic fold has been quite as rapid as his
most ardent plutocratic masters could de-
sire. He now seems fated to serve them,
especially the Kansas contingent, ingalls,

Passage of the Silver bill Creates
Very Little Excitement.

NEW YORK, June 19.-News of the
passage by the senate of the bill pro-
vlding for the free coinage of silver had
no effect on the stock market and ex-
cited no influence on Wall street except
among dealers in silver bullion. who
regarded it with complaisance. The
opinions of bankers and brokers as to
its ultimate effect were very diverse.
but the general impression is that it
means wild imitation of the currency
and advance in every community dealt
in. Russell Sage and other people as
prominent say that they look on the
bill with apprehension and fear i'll
effects will follow its passage. Some
bankers said the adoption of a free
coinage measure would bring disaster
and work great injury. The effect of
these unfavorable opinions put dam
per on the little boom that started lust
after the opening and believers in an
advance decided to refrain from any
active movement until the passage of
the bill through both houses was an
assured fact.
Russell Sage says: Il look with APP
prehension on the action of the senate
in the passage of the free coinage bill.
Ii the law should ever become opera
tive 1t would create such an initiation
that panic would be sure to follow.
l believe the i'll effects of the law will
be felt Immediately on its passage, be-
cause European holders of our securi-
ties would be almost certain to throw
their holdings on our market, at least
all securities not payable in gold.''
John Ill. lnman said: 1T looks to
me like bad legislation. The effect
can only be injurious. OF course there
might be temporary boom in business
If free coinage was dropped, but the
final wind up will almost certainly be
disastrous.
ID. +. Doshay, of Zimmerman & Do
shay, bullion dealers, regarded the
passage of the free coinage bill with
great complaisance, The trouble is, y
he said, 1.-The house may not follow in
the senate's footsteps. We want more
money, in this country, and free coin
age is practicable and legitimate
way of securing it,"

WASHINGTON, June 20.-Secretary
Blaine has received a telegram from
the chairman of the national millers'
convention at Minneapolis saying the,
millers were greatly agitated over the
report that an additional duty of 80.
cents per barrel was to be imposed on
American flour in Cuba, thus prohibit
ing the American flour trade, and ask
ing information. Secretary Blaine re-
piled that he had received no official
advice, but if correct the advance would
make duty of 1881 per barrel, evil
IDENTITY intended by Spain to be prohibi--
tory. He added: ut has been con-
stantly said here for the last six months
that western farmers demanded the un--
conditional repeal of the sugar duty.
1t is within the power of the western
farmers, by encouraging system of
reciprocity, to secure in exchange for
the repeal of this duty, the free admis-
sion of their breadstuffs and provisions
into the markets of 40, 900, 900 people
including Cuba. In my opinion this is
the most profitable policy for the west
ern farmer"
