with such misslatemeuts Of facts as the

Of fact. to say nothing of opinion.
IN what | pave said and mean to say,

His ulterances reflect his surroundings
/ lie is in no position to calmly consider
facts, or weight their consequences.
! We, in the Wisconsin lead mines, are
IN q position 20 look calmly on this
present ''ebolutiou." among the
Rocky mountain silver producers.
We have passed through that phase Of
existence, without however making such
fuss about it as they do. We have
seen our mines closed, and mining
towns and villages practically aban-
doned by reason of the fact that the
mines of Missouri, or those ofthe Rocky
mountsins could produce our staple
cheaper than we could, and so far rs
can remember we never once threatened
to wade in blood at all, to say nothing
of wading in tito our horses brides, if
/ Congress " ould not restore our products
i to their former value as compared with
other products Aud really | see no
good reason tor doubling that our Rocky
mountain brothers will have TO submit,
as we did to the memorable laws of sup.
ply and demand, aud obtain tor their
productions. what they are worth in
j the worlds markets, in competition
with he similar productions of other
countries, except IA SO far as pr0tec-
tive tariff may protect their products.
That however, j. question upon which
j in view Of the decision If the people AT
j the polls last November, it will rot be
profitable at this time to enter Our
silver friends must not however forget
/ that IN SO far as they ask for special
/ legislation respecting their product,
they are appealing to he same princi-
/ pal OF protection for home industries
against foreign products, which the Re-
/ publicans advocated, and the people by
their votes rejected AT the late election.
Mr.. Mills repeats with as much assur.
ance as though it was true, the stale and
often exploded falsehood. that the
Omitted States claudeslinely demone-
