cratic Congressional Convention de-
nonnces the last Republican Congress
Tor not putting silver upon u full equal
ity with gold as = money metal. How
ever this may be intended to dodge the
SILVER question. it really does declare in
favor OK putting the coinage Of silver
upon a full equality with the coinage
OF gold; for what the Democrats de-
nounce tue Republicans for not doing,
they logically must also denounce them
selves for not doing. Upon this plat
form they place Mr.. Lawrence, and
pledge him to work, if elected. for the
coinage of silver upon the same con-
d.tlons Is the coinage of gold. That IS.
they propose that quantity of silver
worth only SO cents, or less, shall be
| coined into a dollar. the same as a
quantity OF gold worth 100 cents, and
that the millionaire owners of silver
mines shall pocket the II or more cents
on each silver dollar coined.
The difference between the Republi-
leans and the Democrats is this: The
Republican party is in favor of buying,
or receiving all the silver mined in the
United Stases, at its market value, and
storing 1t in bars, and issuing paper
money to the full market value of such
silver bars, such paper money being Sc
cured 10y the silver so stored, only coin
ing so much OF the silver as the cOun-
try Will actually use. BY this plan the
silver mine owners will not pocket the
profit made 10y coming their silver. but
such profit will 60 TO the whole people,
Will be saved from any loss on their
paper money, at the same time the
silver mine owners will have govern
ment market for all their silver, and
viii get its full market value
at all times. By this plan, also,
the currency Will be increased to the
full amount of the market value of all
the silver received, while gold will not
be driven cut nor paper money be de-
preciated.
The Democratic party. or majority
of It, incladrng the Democrats who
nominated Mr.. Lawrence, are IN favor
of coming all the silver, whether the
country can use it as coin or not, and
no matter If it drives gold out of use
and takes twelve or more cents off the
value Of every paper dollar in the
pockets of the people, while it puts
twelve or more cents into the pockets
of the millionaire silver mine owner.
The Republicans. concerning silver,
or concerning other things, believe in
protecting the interests of the whole
people--the farmers, the mechanics
and the masses; the Democrats advo-
cate free trade in silver coinage for the
benefit Of few silver mine million
aires, just as they urge free trade in
other things for the benefit of few
millionaire importers.
The T.. ;. government, ut this mo-
ment, has tons of silver dollars coined
and stored away in vaults that the peo-
pie do not use, Will not use, and cannot
be forced To use. IL more, silver is
coined, it, also. may be stored away in
vaults. unused, just as soon as the MIL
lIonaire silver mine owner has used it
once, to get his profit out Of it. 1t will
swell the currency in existence; but ii
may rot make the money in actual use
any pIenuer, nor even as plenty as il
now IL, Il gold $ driven out. TO rem
edy this more paper money will have to
be issued, based upon the ss-cent silver
dollars.
