The Silver Bill And The
House.

After The National Democrat
went to press last week tho three
days debate on tho Bland silver
bill concluded with q parliamenta.
~ contest Of several hours ending
IN no decisive action, but. 10 Dor.
row military term, leaving the
tactical advantage on the side OF
the opponents of the bill. To the
very general surprise a motion to
kill the whole business by laying
the bill on the table failed onlv
because the vote was tie. OF
the l4S votes cast in favor of the
motion, 80 were cast by Democra-
tic members of the House and
sixty-six by Republican members.
The negative vote shows the
names of II Republicans, the
other 1877 being either Democrats
OF Alliance men. The unexpect-
eddy large showing of Democratic
votes against the silver bill came
from the following States: New
York, l9; Pennsylvania, 10; Wis
consin, Z; Massachusetts,, Z; Iowa,
S; New Jersey, Ohio, and Mary
land, 4 each; Illinois, Connecticut
and Michigan, 3 each; New. Ham,

and Minnesota, 2 each; South Gu
rolina, l (Mr. Brawley) Delaware,
l (Mr. Causey); West Virginia, /
(Mr. Wilson,; Missouri, (Mr.
Cobb, and California, l (Mr.
Geary).
After this dilatory motions we're
made and the roll called on them
till Mr.. Bland temporarily aban-
doncd the fight and moved an all
journment.
A majority of Democrats seem
to be in favor of free coinage, but
the minority opposed to it is very
large; it is much too large to ig-
more in calculating the results of
this year. The Indianapolis Sem
tinel is a thoroughly Democratic
paper and in favor of free coinage,
but it understands the present po-
litical situation so we'll that it
says systematically that next
November the Democratic party
will be invincible on the tariff
question and invisible on the sill
yer question.
It seems to us of the utmost
importance that the Democratic
party should stick to the issue on
which it is united, enthusiastic
and unconquerable, and not COM
plicate matters by declaring by a
narrow majority in favor Of IN
issue on which the party is seri-
ously divided, an issue on which
we can carry no Northern State,
certainly no Northeastern State,
and an issue which the Republi-
cans have been doing their best
to induce tho Democratic party to
take up. The passage of the sill
YER bill by the House would do no
good, for if it passed the Senate
the President would veto it.
When the party has the power of
making laws it will make such
currency laws as are for the good
of the whole people.-National
Democrat.

..Tbs GOOD ola rimes.,, s


John Monroe, an old and respected
farmer of the Hood River valley paid
his respects to the Chronicle today in
the form of pleasant visit. Mr.. Mon
roe was born nearly ~ years ago in Lo-
gan county, Ohio. He remembers well
the stirring times connected with the
presidential campaigns of '36 and 40, in
both of which he voted for Harrison,
casting his first ballot for that gentle
man in 1886. The dominent issue in
both campaigns was the tariff. Mr..
Monroe took his stand for protection
and has never wavered in his fealty to
that doctrine during the long years that
have transpired since. Though by NO
means deficient in theoretical knowl-
edge of tarf questions he has a double
advantage over men who were born at a
later period, as he himself was part of
the actual history of three quarters of a
century during which tariff laws have
veered from almost absolute free trade
to high protection. He remembers the
condition that followed the nearest ap-
proach to free trade the country has
ever known, which occurred after the
election of Van Buren in 1885 and was
SO disastrous to the nation that almost
every factory and foundry and work
shop that was obliged to compete with
English manufacturers had to shut
down. The poverty of the agricultural
classes exceeded that of any former per-
iod in the nations history. Money was
derained out of the country to pay for
foreign imports and the producer found
next to no market for his products.
Wages, for all classes of labor, were low
and everything the farmer was compelled
to buy was high. To illustrate these
good old free trade times, for whose re-
turn SO many moderns are earnestly
yearning, we cannot do better than re-
late little incident that happened not
long since in the district school house,
not far from Mr.. Monroe's home. An
earnest advocate of ''tariff reform'' had
just whooped it up in favor of the good
old times away back in the early ferties,
when Mr.. Monroe asked permission to
tell something that he knew, not like
viz ASN1oAOt 1AOAA q OOOh, IL AAOOCo Lu0
said lecturer had not drawn largely on
his imagination for his facts. Permis-
sion having been granted the old gentle
man in substance said 81 remember
well the days the speaker has told us of,
but remember them as the worst times
for poor man have ever known dur
ing my long life. remember well the
first jack-knife ever owned. I had ar
rived at manhood before 1 was rich
enough to possess it. It was poor
make-shift of knife, imported all the
way from England, for we had no pro-
lection for our factories in those days
and consequently no factories. The
knife cost me dollar and a half and the
money that purchased it was earned by
three days hard work, under broiling
sun, in the harvest field. I hold in my
hand a knife vastly better in every way
that cost me exactly 4S cents, and any
harvest hand, in any corner of the Amer
lean continent, during any harvest sea-
son, for the past 25 years of high pro-
tective tariff, could earn in one day suffi-
cient money to buy from three to half a
dozen of them.''

A Plain Mans Idea.

A farmer in Mississippi writes the fol-
lowing letter on silver to the New York
Epening Post. It presents an argument
in style as plain and clear as it is
homely and forcible, viz: ST am a
farmer and do not know much about
politics, but do see some serious flaws
in the Bland bill. The aim of the friends
of silver is to raise the price of that
metal by putting government credit be-
hind it. Now, my county does not pro-
duce an ounce of silver, nor an ounce of
anything valuable in the mineral line.
If the price of silver is advanced artifi-
cially, will it not take more of our timber,
more pigs, more corn, more calves to
get it? Are dollars to be made more
plentiful? How? / know of Just one
way to get dollars, and that is to find
some man who has dollars and who
wants something he does not have more
than he wants his dollars, and who will
give me his dollars for something which
prize less than / do his dollars. In
other words, trade my labor, my pigs,
my cotton, my cows for the dollars of
some man who needs labor, pigs, cotton
or cows more than he needs dollars.
s'Now, if two employers are after one
laborer, as in Montana, wages are high !:
if two laborers are after one boss as in
some large cities of the East, wages are
low. If two pigs are after 81, pigs are
low; if 81 are after one pig, pigs are
high. If dollars, of whatever kind. get
SO abundant that three or four of them
get after one pig, pigs will GO very high !:
and if dollars reach the point where they
are made by the millions out of silver.
and copper, and tin, and represent moth
ing but themselves, pigs may be ex-
pected to hesitate before they will trade
themselves off for something as common
as leaves in October, and it will take a
great many more dollars to get one pig
than it would take if pig had no cues
ton of their valne.= But these extra
dollars will do the man who sells the
pig no good, because the man who sells
the speols of thread and calico will want
more of them for his goods. This hap
pens, not because the pig and calico are
worth more, but because the dollars are
worthless. I respectfully urge that far
more popular measure will be the pas.
sage of a law making nine eggs a dozen. D
