previous to 1888. The destruction in
1875 Of the S5O,OOO,OOO fractional paper
money, and the purchase Of silver bull
lion with per cent. bonds to I'LL the
place of the fractional paper, has cost the
people in interest, over $35,OOO,0O0, when
the paper cost the people nothing, was
more convenient In use, and performed
all the functions Of money. The hold
Ing out of circulation In the treasury,
$1OO,OOO,0OO Of gold to redeem green
backs, when the greenback is preferable
to gold, is another evidence Of ignorance
or rascallty. The untruthful speeches OF
Senator Sherman, made In the interest Of
capital, purposely to deceive the people,
afford an illustration of the manner In
which partisan slaves are kept In bond
aUe through their ignorance and pre-
1udlce, ldiotlc idolatry of gold and silver.
Ia using the metals for money the cost
of assay offices, mlnts, safes and vaults,
the cost of coinage, Of storage, the wear
Of the coins, the changing or fluctuating
commodity value Of the metals, the Inn
possibility Of q discovery Of the metals
equal to the increase Of population, and
the increasing demands Of modern civill-
,ilization, make them totally unfit
for money, or for any basis for money.
There never was any necessity for the
American government to make any in
terest bearing bonds. 1t was the plan Of
heartless money spectators In order TO
establish a genteel system Of piracy,
called national banking, that q few
capitalists might control the volume Of
money. That American people should
pay rent to licensed shylockS for the use
Of such money, thereby making the peO-
pie renters to q privileged aristocracy OF
capitalists. According to the decision Of

Rreenback Is the money that liberateS
the people, because 1t performs all the
functions of money without paying any
rent to either bullionists or bankers.
The people have NO use for any other
kind of money. They should emanci-
pate themselves from a licensed system
Of slavery to bullionists and bankers.
History proves that'gold was never the
money of a people struggling for free
dom. The gold Of King George paid
armies to butcher, scalp, murder and
burn, during seven long years. Their
bsyonets were driven from this land
without gold. When, few years since,
English pirate ships preYed upon our
commerce, they were driven from the
seas without gold. During the fearful
trials of the late war our soldiers were
paid without gold. This coin idolatry
has cursed this land as Il has cursed all
lands, with periodical panlcS, hard times
and human slavery. II affords an op-
portunity, a deceptive pretense, for a few
men to control all the wealth, and to
absorb all the products Of industry. Re-
lieve the people of the absurd idea Of the
necessity Of any commodity value in
money, of the barter trade Of barbsrism;
teach them that governments have su-
preme power to establish legal values,
for all the exchanges of civilization, and
you strike down the chains of slavery and
remove the opportunity for the few to
rob the many. This would allow the peo-
pie to increase the volume of money
equal to the demands of business, give
employment to labor, develope the re-
sources Of the country and establish uni
versal and continuous prosperity.

NO GOLD Or SILVER NECESSARY AS
MONEY.
10 the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE:

70 the Editor OF TIE ADvOCATE:
Senator Sherman Is reported as say
ing, "That free coinage Of silver would
take 81 per cent. from every pension
granted, that It would tske31 per cent.
from the labor Of every artisan" Every
intelligent American knows that any
man who talks that way 10 either an ig-
noramus or a wiIlful liar. When the
greenback paper dollar Is worth pre-
MUM over both gold and silver, not only
in this country, but in all civilized ma
tlons, there Is no necessity for the use Of
any metal, or any other commodity value.
The Peoples party wants free coinage OF
greenbscks equal to $4,000 per capita. 1t
ls the duty Of American statesmen to
supply the people with sufficient vol
ume of legal tender paper money to
cause continuous prosperity, without
any regard to the quantity Of any metal
that may be discovered In the mountains.
The bullion value Of the 81, 100, 100000
gold and silver, now coined by this gov
ernment into money, Is SO much lost to
the world. Let hard money creditors
who wanted the currency debt changed
to coin debt, be compelled TO haul of
from the government safes and vaults
these thousands Of tons Of their intrinsic
value, "hOnest bullion money" Let
metal headed idOIatOrs furnish their own
storage for their barter trade. Secretary
Folger In his report to the speaker OF the
house Of representatives, in 1883, says
that new vaults have been built ex-
pressly for storing silver as follows

This picture of women and children
who make dog chains for two cents
apiece in free trade England is shownto
the men Of this country who are invited
by the Democratic party to vote for
such free trade. Does any man in his
sober senses think, with this picture Of
women blachsmiths before him, that
such cheapness would be ''good for the
country?
If you want Grover Cleveland and his
party to try their expcriment-which
might incidentally deprive you of a
home, and compel your wife and little
ones to work at dog chain making as
those English women do-vote the
Democratic ticket.
If you are ''old fashioned enough to
believe that God made women to care
for and ornament a home, you are in
sympathy with the Republican party
and viii undoubtedly vote for Benjamin
Harri son.

MRS. LEASE FOR HARRISON.
She Says Populists Should Not Play Int

She Says Populists Should Not Play Into
the Hands of Democrats.
Aspecial to the Democratic New York
Times from Topeka, Kan, says:
The sensation of the day in Kansas
is the interview with Mrs. Lease, who
has been accompanying General Weaver
in his tour through the southern states.
She reeites the indignities they We're
subjected to. and then declares that if a
vote for Weaver is in reality vote for
Cleveland in this state, her desire is that
the Populists scratch their ticket and
vote for the Harrison electors.
Mrs. Lease is, next to Jerry Simpson,
the strongest leader Of the Kansas Popu-
lists, and her expressed wishes have
caused great CONSERVATION not only in
her own party, but among the Demo-
Gratis.
She comedies every southern state to
Cleveland, and therefore at this late day
indicates her preference for Harrison.
Her advice will be followed by many,
but at this time it is impossible to- say to
what extent.

"FjATu MONEY.

That Is the Real Scheme of the Third
Party Leaders.
The boasts of the leaders Of the Peo-
ple's party that they are certain to con-
troll sentiment in the next house, and to
dictate the choice Of president through
the Fifty-second congress, are of particu-
lar interest to the silver states, where
the missionaries of this movement are
now working. The leaders Of the Peo-
ple's party in the present congress have
omitted no opportunity to show that
their pretended attachment for free coin
age was only step toward an absolute
fiatism which should abolish all coinage
and substitute government legal tender
notes based on the credit Of the govern
ment alone.
General Weaver was admittedly a fiat
money advocate during the last terms OF
his congressional career His successors.
like Simpson, of Kansas, and Watson.
of Georgia, are open advocates OF ex-
pansion of the circulating medium by
congressional enactment and the assist
ance Of the government printing office.
On Jan. last Jerry Simpson introduced
u Ulll III lilc uolSG VI Ii
R. 1859, which was referred to the COM
mittee on judiciary and ordered to be
printed.
In this remarkable production the
fifteenth section provides "that one year
from and after the passage of this act
the coinage of gold and silver coins
above the denomination Of twenty-five
cents shall cease, and three years from
the date of the passage of this act such
coins shall no longer be legal tender
and the United States shall provide for
the redemption of all such coins at their
face value by exchanging for them legal
tender paper money, and manufacture
them into bars and keep the same on
SALE"
This programme, which has been fre-
quently discussed by the leaders of the
Peoples party at Washington and which
comprises the ultimate programme of
that organization, would deal a fatal
blow to the mining industry of the west
and at once destroy the home market for
silver. It is matter of interest to know
what claims the advocates of such
scheme have upon the honest silver
miners Of the west for support in their
attempt to seat in the White House the
most bitter enemy which silver has had
in the past quarter Of a century.

Also Higher Rates for Werknoen-
That sterling Democratic paper, the
Baltimore Sun, publishes letter from a
Baltimore Gamer, who testiies to the
reduction in prices of tin cans since the
Mckinley law went into effect. He says:
I'VE buy nine sizes; formerly paid for,
No. 1, 6 cents; No. 2, 6L cents; No. 3,

No. Z, 80 cents: No. g. 81 cents: No. 81
So cents.
THE fact of the above reduction in
price will be borne out by every large
buyer of these cans in this country
Regarding the question of wages he
adds: Il have the wage books of my
father, who employed from 30 to Is
men. These books run from 1910 to
1Sc0
II find that the wages paid during the
whole of that period was from 81 to $40
per week, according to the character of
the work-only two men Of the number
being paid the extreme amount named.
The same class of workmen are now
paid from So to SIS per week.
''Look at the present condition of our
working classes; compare it with what
it was. Are there any willing to submit
to the old state of things or be put on a
level with the miserable pauper labor
of Europe"

These women make bricks for their
living in free trade England.
There are no women brickmakers in
the United States.
There never will be if the husbands
and fathers and sons of American. wom-
en- wish it so. 1t is true enough thatchar-.
ity should begin at home, but what man
wants charity for his family when the
Republican party offers protection. from
the free trade ills which necessitats
charity? One person out of every twelve
in Great Britain has to have parish help
to keep from starving. Do you, know
that the Democratic party is seeking to
bring about free trade in this country.
and that free trade is another name for
''brickmaking women!'
1t is source of pride and happiness to
our American workmen that their wives
and children are better. housed, better
clothed, bettea fed and happier and
healthier than are the wives and chill
dren of any other workingmen on earth
Republican protection makes it possible
to thus provide for them.
