NOT ANrAaos1sr1o 1ssurs.

The talk about paramount issues is
nothing more nor less than a search
for pretext to bury the financial issue
at the behest of few silk-stockings Of
New York city and Boston, who, with
few exceptions, are not Democrats,
never were Democrats, and never will
be Democrats. If they can scare the
Democratic party away from the only
issue in which they feel any interest, 1t
matters nothing to them what else it
advocates or opposes. The people who
speculate upon the expansion and con-
traction Of prices, care no more about
the tariff issue than they care about
the rainfall in Hindostan. but they are
greatly interested in preventing the
issue Of sufficient volume Of money to
do the business of the country, because
with that their occupation would be
gone.
The man who asserts thinkingly that
the tariff issue is ''the paramount
issue" means by that, if he means any
thing, that financial reform must be
sacrificed in order to secure tariff re-
form. If he doesn't mean that what
does he mean? What occasion is
there for contrasting the two issues
and seeking to place them IN an attitude
Of hostility? Financial reformers are,
to man, tariff reformers; they are as
ardent advocates of tariff reduction as
those who would stop reform at the
tariff. Then what just cause is there
for playing of one issue against the
other? There is none. It is simply a
trick, trick of Wall street, which has,
unhappily duped sincere Democrats,
even in Texas.
The DeAocratic party is not hobby
horse party. It never was. It has
always been its boast that its platforms
have BEEN broad enough for every
honest eker after the hetterment of
the conditfon OF the country to stand
upon. 1t WY not at this late day re-
pudiate its Historic attitude merely
to crafty theaemand of such notorious

THE SONG orIrHE noNEY sIRrS.

THE SONG OF The MONEY SIREN.
1t is net strange that Massachusetts,
should put up tha plea that a free silver
platform would bndanger Democratic
success in the presidential election,
because Massachusetts is bound hand
and foot by the rhoney changers, and
at any cost, would befeat the move to
enlarge the circulating medium OF the
country 1t is strhnge, however. that
a member of the Texas legislature
could be found to plk &d for the retire
ment of the financial question on the
ground that it is likely to endanger
Democratic success t bis year.
The man who WILLY reflect for three
minutes must perceiFe that such
suggestion originated with those who
for selfish purpose wo4 id make of the
Democratic party th@ same subser-
Went tool of the money! power that it
now has in the party of Harrison, Quay
and Chandler. In thah event. either
way the election goes, he gold pluto
Gratis are safe. Their influence aud
their money will go with the Republi-
can cause, because they lrealize that it
is but an uncertain hold they have on
the Democratic party. I IS masses are
likely to rise up at any moment and
repudiate the cowardly bolicy OF the
leaders who would disowa one of its
historic principles. They understand
AS well as those same LEI aders-that
there is something in the financial
question, that no matter how cheap
the necessaries OF life may become
through the operations of 1pemccratic
tariff, the relief would still be made
quate if the money lords of the nation
continue to contract the circulating
medium at will.
The masses know as well as,the lead
ers that because OF the approaching
maturity of the government bonds the
financial question is rapidly approach
ing crisis, and that the purpose of the
money power in seeking to divert them
from the money issue in this campaign
is to keep the eye of the public off
manipulations which are intended to
fasten present monetary conditions
upon the country for another quarter
of century.
They demonetized silver by strate-
gem and fraud. The country has now
walked up to the enormity of. that
crime, and the effort is 10 put it to
sleep again, in order that the
results of the crime may be made per-
petual.
The people understand these things.
They understood them when they
elected a congress, two-thirds of which
is aggressively for free silver. Does |
any one imagine that the people die
not know when they chose these repre-
resentatives that they were for finan-
cial reform? If
If the party is true to its principles,
as Jackson was courageous /
in fighting the money power, it will |
win, but if it listens to the siren song 4
of the money changers, it will earn
their contempt for its pains, and meet
a deserved defeat at the polls.

IT would be better at this time to
pass no alien land law, but if one is to
be passed it is but simple justice to
debtors to INCORPORATE an equity of re-
demption in the clause relating to
mortgages. Most states give the IN
fortunate debtor the benefit OF such a
just provision. 1t does not lessen the
security, but tends to prevent specula-
ton upon individual misfortune. The
loan companies are usually content to
recover principal and interest, and all
9th sr creditors should be so contentl
Land sold for taxes may be redeemeA

denies that Governor Hill ever said
