Who Brought the Peril?

! All patriotic men are much more
concerned in getting rid of the peril of
continued silver purchase than in fix
ing the responsibility for it. But when
a leading Republican organ speaks
of the party in power as having "des-
perately appealed to Republicans to
help get rid of the silver peril" it is
proper to cite history.
The Sherman act was passed in fully
1870. Both houses. of congress and
the President were Republicans. The
vote on the passage of the bill, as given
in the Tribune Almanac, was:
In the Senate, yeas 80 nays 26. The
yeas were all republican. the nays all
Democrats. In the House theyeas were
l22. the nays 80. The yeas were I2l
Republicans. / "Wheeler." The nays
were all Democrats.
Senator Sherman has given two ex-
cuses for adopting what he character
ICES as "this makeshift:" First,that it
was necessary to prevent free-coin-
age act; second, that the Republicans
chad no right to throw the RESPONSE
bility upon the President" of dealing
with free-coinage bill.
70 the first excuse it is enough to
to reply that the House had already re-
jected free-coinage bill passed by the
Senate, so that the fear of a worse bill
did not exist.
To the second excuse the natural an
swer is: If the President is not Justly
to be relied upon to prevent bad and
dangerous legislation, what is he
armed with veto power for2 Presi-
dent Grant did not shrink from the
responsibility of preventing paper in
flation. President Hays had the dar-
ing of his duty. Can anybody imagin
that President Cleveland would ask or
permit his party friends to save him
from the responsibility attached to his
office?
The truth is that the silver-purchase
and representation was passed by the
Republicans as political measure to
hold the silver States for Harrison and
TO throw tub to the "cheap-money"
whale. Every intelligent man knows
this. Every honest newspaper will
admit it.
II is this Republican law, passed |
solely by Republican votes and defend
ed by Republicansin their votes and
speeches, which caused the financial
disaster. 1t has operated SO disastrously
that its authors are now compelled to
vote for its repeal.
1t is this Republican law. also, con
dcmned in the Democratic national
platform and for the repeal of which
President Clevland summoned Con-
gress together, that many Democratic
Senators have joined hands with the
Republican silver Senator'S to defend.
II any wonder that their constituent
c;es are rising up in wrath at this ex-

Every thing indicates that the de-
bate on the Vorhees repeal bill is
drawing near its end in the Senate
and that the long contest of personal
endurance by means of a continuous
session of the Senate with a quorum
always present or within call will
soon begin. Another attempt, in fact
several of them, were made this week
to get President Cleveland's consent to
some sort of compromise that
would secure an immediate vote and
avoid the hard feelings between Sem
ators which always follows prolonged
sessions, but Mr.. Cleveland was inflex-
ible. A number of the Democratic
Senators who will vote for the Vor-
hees bill are personally willing to
agree to a compromise that would in
some shape recognize silver, but hav-
ing promised Mr.. Cleveland that they
would vote for unconditional repeal

without his consent.
