LANS" ~ IA : ASSo,j
In his latest message Mr.. Cleveland
grieves because the working man is
always the first to feel the hurt inflicted
by deprecated currency; and de-
probation of the currency, in Mr..
Cleveland's opinion, is positively threat
ened. Five years ago, when the Presi-
dent mourned so much over the suffer-
ings of the workingman, that individual
was fully employed at the highest wages
ever earned by labor. Today, the men
who have employment are earning still
higher wages considering the superior
purchasing power of money! and of all
the employers and employed in the
country there is not one who has glim-
mer of doubt Of the integrity of any dol
lar coined or printed by the government.
The only complaint that is heard from
the people with respect to dollars is,
not that they are light weight" or
dishonest or buzzard," but that the
quantity within reach is too small to
meet the requirements of commerce.
TIL ese dollars, concerning which Mr..
Cleveland has doubt and fear, are
boarded by the people who hold them
coveted by the people who have them
not, and accepted at par without ones
ton by everybody in every part Of I HE
country. Indeed, while Mr.. Cleveland,s
message of warning against the peril IF
depreciation was on it's way to the Cani-
tot. eager merchants were nav;nu q
premium upon the very dollar that he
was trying to discredit. At the same time

the tariff be laid for revenue only. The
Ohio Democrats are to be congratulated
on having convictions and the courage
of them. They have done a manly and
courageous thing by proclaiming in the
strongest possible way that they have no
sympathy with the Eastern Mugwumps
and Democrats who are now trying to
run away from their platform. They
have administered a deserved rebuke to
those of their brethren who have been
virtually telling the country that the
platform was mere buncombe, designed
simply to catch voters, which nobody
was under obligation to live up to.
They have shown that they have no
fellowship with hypocrites. They have
raised the flag of tariff for revenue
only and no protection to the masthead,
and have determined to go down with
colors flying. The action of the Ohio
Democrats will be grateful to everybody
but the sneaks.

Ter. So in reality Mr.. Sherman had to
pay out very little coin. But as the green
backs have come back into the Treasury
in the course of business, they have been
retained and coin has been issued in their
stead. So at the present time there are
about $50 millions to $40 millions OF
greenbacks in circulation.
The next bill in the readers pocket will
have printed on it's face, perhaps, the
assurance that on presentation at the
Treasury of the United States ten gold
dollars will be given for it. This is a
"gold certificate" 1t is issued simply
for convenience. Gold being heavy, bust
ness men prefer to leave it in the Treas
ury, and use in it's place certificate
that the gold may be had when wanted
Gold certificates are of course legal ten
der for any amount. There are about
100 millions of these outstanding.
The next bill has printed on it's face
the assurance that there is in the Treas
ury of the United States one silver dollar,
which may be had if the holder of the
bill cares to claim it. This is silver
certificate and, like the gold certificate,
was issued for convenience. This certi-
ficate is very popular, and more of certifi-
Gates than of the dollars themselves
are in circulation. Some persons and
papers speak carelessly of silver dollars
that are piled up at Washington and do
not circulate. But the certificates are
circulating, and those dollars are simply
held in trust for the people who are us
ing the certificates. A recent Washing
ton despatch announced that there was
not a single silver dollar in the Treasury
for which a certificate is not circulating.
In all we have in the country about
800 million silver dollars, and there are
in circulation certificates for about 1875
million of them.
The next bill looks much like the
silver certificate" but instead of con-
tanning the assurance that it will be re-
deemed with silver dollar, it is redeem
able in conn.," that is, either by silver
aer gold dollar. This is called "coin
certificate or Treasury note.n The
description of the Treasury Note involves
a consideration of the nature of the dol
lar, which may be left for a chapter Of
it's own.

The Democrats of Ohio have in very
marked and unmistakable manner ex-
pressed contempt for the Democratic and
Mugwump organs of the East that have
been telling the country that the tariff
plank of the platform was mere gen.
erality, put there by enemies of the
Democratic party, by placing the man
who had more to do with putting it
there than anybody else at the head of
their State ticket. Mr.. Lawrence T. Neal,
their candidate for governor, nominated
with substantial unanimity, is the au-
thor of the tariff plank of the National
Democratic platform. He introduced it
in the face of the opposition of a MAORI
ty of the committee on resolutions, and
secured it's adoption by an overwhelming
majority in the convention. The selec-
tion of Mr.. Neal for the head of the ticket
is a distinct and positive ratification by
the Ohio Democrats of the doctrine
enunciated at Chicago. 1t is reaffirma-
ton of the assertions of the Chicago con-
vention that protection is fraud, is I'M
constitutional, and a reiteration by one
of the largest and most intelligent con-
stituencies of the Democratic party of

The underlying cause of the present
financial panic is distrusts and the cause
of that distrust is in great measure
uncertainty in regard to future business
conditions. The purpose of calling Con-
gress together was that some of these
uncertainties might be removed. 1t is
quite evident that if Congress refuses
to act promptly, and a great variety of
financial schemes make their appearance
in it, the effect of the session will be
to add uncertainties with consequent
increase of the prevailing distrust. Unless
Congress takes some action quickly its
session will do more harm than good.
A debate prolonged for several months
with half dozen different schemes,
with uncertainty as to which will be
adopted, will be sure to increase the ex-
listing distrust. Yet that is what there is
every prospect that the country will get.
