BRYAN AND RATIO

Mr.. BRYAN, Nebraska's eminent con-
gressional 'silver-tongue," is now
standing shoulder to shoulder with MIR.
BLAND in the fight for free silver coin
age. In the course of recent speech
in the house. Mr. BRYAN said:
"Bimetalism does not depend upon
any fixed ratio, but may exist as well at
ratio Of 16 to l as at q ratio of 80 to L.
The logical conclusion of Mr.. BRYAN
is open to criticism. The last member
of the sentence does not qualify the
first. Every honest money man in the
country will readily admit that bimet-
aliism may exist as weil-with strong
emphasis on ''as well''-at ratio of 16
to as at ratio OF 80 to l, simply be-
cause either condition long continued
would result in plain monometallism.
In this country bimetallism would be
destroyed. At rate of 16 to gold
would be gradually drained from the
country. On basis Of 30 to l, the more
valuable silver dollars would go to
premium, and, ultimately, wing them
selves away.
But in saying that "bimetallism does
not depend upon any fixed ratio" Mr..
BRYAN sounds the key note of the cam
paIgn in the house for free silver. Re
cent developments in congress indicate
that free coinage lines are to be
strengthened so far as possible on basis
of sixteen to one with no compromise.
The reason advanced for this course is
consistent with all other free coinage
theories. Messrs. BRYAN, BLAND and
other congressional leaders now claim
that ratio greater than sixteen to one
would virtually be an admission that in
trlnsIc value regulated the worth of coin
instead of the stamp OF government
Right here enters the fiat principle un-
DERIVING the whole fight for free silver
On the part of fully twO-thirds of the
silver element in congress. Rather than
admit the necessity of raising the un-
trinslc value or silver dollar they pre-
fer to lose their case in the lower house
and trust TO the senate to return an I'm
conditional repeal bill with modifica-
tions embracing many of their pet ideas.
Their motto is no concession to intrinsic
value. Everything for fiat. but nothing
for actual parity between gold and
silver. This is the challenge to the
country issued by Mr.. BRYAN and his
cOmpatriots in the house.

A Reduction of rs Per Cent in
Wages Proposed.
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 19.-All yesterday
afternoon and half of the night there
has been a secret conference between
officials of the Chicago. Milwaukee IL
st. Paul Railway company and
the grievance committee of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen
relative to reduction of wages. Ar
rangements had been made to meet at
Chicago yesterday, but the grievance
committee did not complete its secret
work, and last night the officials of the
road decided not TO meet them in this
city. The company was represented at
the conference by General Man
ager f. j. Earring, General Su-
perlntendent w. q. Collins and
Assistant General Superintendent f.
w. Mckenna. 1t was learned that the
officials informed the committee that a
reduction of wages in the operating de-
partment, except alone in cases where
tie ply does not reach $50 per month in
individual cases. was absolutely neceS-
sary and would be made OH Sept. l.
The entire ground was carefully gone
over and all reasonable questions
as to the present amount of bust
ness being done by the company, the
percentage of falling off. ETC., were an
swered by the officials and official re-
ports in support of their statements
were exhibited. The committee was
Informed that the company did not de-
sire to make any cut, but found it alb
solutely unavoidable at this time, and
assurances were given that the reduc-
ton would not be continued a day
longer than it was found necessary. No.
conclusion was reached at late hour
this morning. Both officials and the
committee refuse to talk

A CONFUSED STATESMAN.


Senator DAVID B. HILL introduced a
joint resolution that no legislation ex-
cept that relating to the financial Ques-
ton be taken up at the special session.
A day or two subsequent he introduced
a bill repeating the federal election
laws. Mr.. HILL has yet failed 10 give
the country in his several efforts any
clear idea of what his opinions are OH
the use of silver as coin metal. Dia-
metrically opposite conclusions are
drawn from what he has said. This
has been attributed to his astuteness in
being able to express himself so adroitly
as to seem to favor both extremes.
But this deiiyerance of resolution and
bill indicates that any uncertainty OF
Mr. HILLS financial views is subject
i've rather than objective. 1t reveals a
confused condition of mind which suffi-
ciently accounts for lack of perspieaeity
on the silver question. The fault is his,
not his readers.
The senator's resolution and bill be-
tray further degree of confusion In
bis mental processes which prevents him
from forming clear concept of the rel
ative Importance of public questions.
Or it betrayS what has been suspected,
ali indifference equivalent to antag-
oniSm to the cause of tariff reform to
which his party is committed. The re-
peal OF the federal election laws, prop
er enough, is, however, very insignif-
icant matter, both in fast and relatively.
as compared with the tariff question, oil
which the great battle was fought.
If Mr.. Hill. had a clearer view OF
things, he would not have asked to re-
strict legislation to financial matters,
but would have moved instead, as the
sense of his side of the senate, that
congress should get to the redemption
of the tariff pledge at the very earli-
est moment. He would do this on the
double ground of its being right and of
its being the best politics.
1t is right because we have promised
to do it; the people have taken US at our
word; it was the one dominating issue
Oh which they passed. 1t is good polI-
tics for Two reasons. The manufactur-
ing interests which derive benefits from
the tariff have been expecting it ever
since the election, and preparing for it.
The financial gale has come, fortunately,
to help them in getting ready for 1t by
compelling them to slow down in their
production, thus leaving them where a
change in the prices of their material OF
product will not cause them loss.
The soOner revenue bill can be for
mulated and 20 into effect the better for
our party. Should it be deferred until
next August or later, every protected
manufacturer will help our opponents
make political capital out of it by dis
charging men and reducing wages and
charging it Up to the Democratic tariff.
The probable result will be the loss of
the house. 1t is not often that the right
course and the polite course run paral-
lei as they do in this matter. and when
they do it is the sheerest folly not to
pursue the parallel.

absence leaves unsettled still the palpi-

rather than over Cupid'S that the wool
Is being drawn. Confident tha. when
