An analysis of the vote against the
free coinage of silver OF in other words
the victory of unconditional repeal, fur
nishes some interesting facts. First
the vote against the ratio of 16 to |
which was really the test vote, was the
largest cast in the House for years
There are 36o Representatives and out
of this number DIG voted aginst free
coinage and 124 in favor of it, making a
total of $50 votes cast.
Second. 1t is remarkable that the
Republicans voted almost solidly
against free coinage. only ID voting in
favor. of the Bland or free coinage
amendment.
Third The Democrats were very
evenly divided on the question. The
vote standing in favor of free coinage
was composed of 100 Democrats, II
Populists and Ii Republicans, total
of 124. The vote against the measure
was made up of 100 Democrats and III
Republicans, total 226.
Again, in the free coinage vote of 124
there were 70 Southern Democrats in
its favor while only 80 Southern Dem
ocrats voted against free coinage; the
Mississippi delegation stood 6 to l in
favor of the Bland amendment. A
great majority of the Southern and
Western statesmen were opposed to
the Wilson bill, while New York and
other States in the East were as solidly
in favor of silver's defeat.

LOOK ON THIS PICTURE.
A Common Sense View of the National
Banking Scheme.

Banking Scheme.
The government, as agent for all
the people, endorses the notes of GER
tain bankers, and then gives those
bankers the privilege of lending those
notes, at tremendous usuary, to the
very people whose endorsement made
them valuable.
In other words, merchant, whose
credit is doubtful, comes along and
says to one whose credit is undoubted:
you endorse my notes. If you will
do so | will give you one dollar on the
hundred for doing so"
The sound merchant endorses for
the unsound one. Then the unsound
merchant says to the sound one, II
will lend you these notes if you will
pay me eight dollars on the hundred
for them"
And the sound merchant does it?
Every business man will say he was
fool to use his own paper upon any
such terms; and that if he keeps on do
ing it he will "bust."
The government is doing that very
thing for it's people, and has been doing
it for twenty-fiv years.
And now that the Democrats are in
power they propose to go further than
the Republicans ever dared go.
No wonder the whole country, except
the Money Kings, is about to 'bust."
If the governments endorsement on
private paper money makes it good,
why should not the government make
its own money?
Look on the picture!
Every Democrat and Republican
statesman in the land wants congress
to allow private persons and corpora
tions to make paper money, yet none
of them want the government to do
it!
Why? Because if the governmentsis-
sues its own money, the millionaires
and the banks of issue will no longer
control!
And our politicians dare not oppose
the orders and the interests of the
Money Kings.
1t is shameful spectacle!
More money wanted everywhere, the
government vested with power to make
it; and yet not daring to make it, be-
cause the favored classes want to keep
the privilege of doing SO to themselves

Senator Walthall paid his respects
to Secretary Carlisle in his speech in
the Senate on the It'll. He read dccla
rations of the Secretary of the Treas
ury when a member of the House
years ago, and compared them with
his latest utterances. What great
burst of vision" he asked, has come
to Mr.. Carlisle9 What great power
struck the scales from his eyes? He
then wanted silver restored to the pc
sition it occupied before the act OF
1873 was passed"

Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy

After what has gone before, the lat
ter clause of the Signals paragraph,
attempting to convict us of inconsist-
ency or something worse, need scarce
" be noticed. We are not only will
ing for people who take The LEADER
to read Democratic papers, but would
be glad for them to do so. We
do not believe in one-sided political
education, or narrow, partisan, one
sided education OH any line. The
South has had too much of that sort
of thing already. We would have the
people to read and study all sides of
all questions that concern them, and,
having done this, act in the light OF
all the facts and their honest convic-
tions. If the Prohibition party isn't
based upon the principles Of truth,
Justice, equality and the highest and
broadest plane of craftsmanship, the
people ought 20 know it and repudiate
it, the sooner the better.
1t will be observed, too, that we pro-
pose to do the clean, square thing by
sending along with THE LEADER The
best Democratic newspaper IN MiSsis
sippi. If the editor of the Signal has
the idea that subscribers to THE LEAD
Err become contaminated by reading
the best Democratic paper the State
affords, he has much poorer opinion
of his own party than we have.
