No Free Trade nor Wild Cat Money

When the party i'll power threatens
every domestic industry and all the
labor employed therein with unre-
strained violent competition and con-
sequent ruin, ordinary business sagac-
ity prompts reduction of expendi-
lures, curtailment of plants, and gen
eral suspension TO await the blow. 1t
is this waiting, this fear, this dread
Of an impending retaliation which is
causing much widespread public de-
preston and calamity.
You ask me the remedy. 1t is sim
pie. Let the party in power publicly
repudiate its Chicago platform of free
trade and wild cat money and prom
Use to let the tariff alone, and main
tain sound currency and public credit
Business activity will take place of
stagnation just as soon as the public
can be made to believe i'll the sincerity
of such a declaration.

SOCIETY OF The
UNEMPLOYED. /"
Hundreds of Thousands
Of Workmen Idle.
PROMINENT REPUBLICANS
Tell the People why Ruin Runs
Riot in the Land.

On the ninth oil last November a
party Of Democrats were rejoicing
over the GLORIOUS victory" which
had been achieved by their party.
One of the most enthusiastic remark
ed, The workingmen have at last
come to their senses and have voted
with us this time" A Republican
who was present. realizing that the
remark was intended for him and that
a reply was expected. said, Let us
hope that before the expiration OF
four years we will not hear those same
workingmen crying, Bread or
blood ,"
Little did we realize at that time
the full import of the utterance. A
seer could scarcely have foreseen that
ere a twelvemonth had passed the
blight of ruin and disaster should
spread as pail from the Atlantic to
the Pacific; that those same working
men would have been compelled to
leave their then happy homes and
pleasant firesides and become pension
ers upon the bounty of the public;
that mills, mines, and factories by the
score would be wrecked; that banks
heretofore solid as the eternal hills,
should be forced to suspend; that in
the short space of four months the
business interests of the country
should suffer to the amount of a bill
ion of dollars, and that through all
this the Administration should sit SUI
pinely and make no effort to ward off
the fearful calamity, only calling on
the Republican party to lay aside
partisanship and come to its rescue.
Republicans fully realize the gravi-
ty of the situation They are willing,
though maligned, misrepresented, and
charged OH the hastings and by the
press with favoring the moneyed class
rather than the producers, to do all in
their power to restore confidence.
Every member of the party loves his
country above all things else and
stands ready to lend helping hand
in the hour of the Nation need, fully
realizing that the ordeal through
which the country is now passing will
emphasize, as nothing else could, the
glory and majesty of the principles of
the Grand Old Party.
In this connection we call special
attention to the following extracts
culled from a number of letters writ
ten by prominent Republicans and
published in the New York Press
Every word breathes the purest pa
triotism and will enable each reader to
take fresh courages in his efforts to
stem the tide of disaster. And though
breakers may be seen on every hand,
and hearts may fail and poverty pinch
and perchance some NAV tall by the
way, the great heart of the whole peo-
pie throbs with sympathy. And
through the gloom the banner of the
party that saved the Union when rent
in twain, and which guided it safely
over the shoals of secession, gave
prosperity to the whole land, and
happiness and comfort to millions,
undismayed by temporary defeat,
strengthened in purpose by disaster,
and more than ever confirmed in the
belief that American industries and
American labor must be protected by
the broad shield of American law, "

The most distressing feature, to me,
of the present situation is the closing
OF so many mills, My sympathy is
moved for the man who, having two
millions, loses one but his case does
not approach i'll sadness that of the
workman who loses the daily wage
upon which his family depend. !

the present conditions may prove to
be temporary, for if they extend into
winter, there will be great suffering,

Another Buchanan.

What could the President do?"
This is the question which was asked
over and over again in 90 and '6I,
when the last Democratic President OF
the good old days" before the war
occupied the White House, and his
own Cabinet was center and hotbed
of secession and intrigue. What
could Mcclellan do?" is still asked
by the friends of that officer, when
discussing his record as commander
Of the Army Of the Potomac. This
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1893-08-12

In one word, the root of all our
present troubles is the fact that we
have a Democratic Administration.
The country thought, last November,
that it wanted a change. 1t remains
to be seen how the country likes that
change as far as it has gone.

Want of Confidence.

In my opinion the natural hesita-
ton of capital not only to enter into
new enterprises but to continue those
already established has in the main
produced the present prostration.
This is not the panic of labor, but OF
capital. The Chicago platform has
promised to do that which capital be-
lieves will entail heavy losses upon it;
therefore, capital cannot increase its
volume Of business, but proceeds eau
tiously to contract it, in preparation
for that thorough revision of our tar
iff laws which Congress and the Adj
ministration are pledged to carry out.
l do not, therefore, expect an imme-
date and strong reaction as the result
of the probable repeal of the Sherman
act. Sincerely yours,

Shipping the Garbage.

The special joint committee from the
council to consider the question of Sc
curing a permanent location from which
the garbage contractors can ship their
collections will meet this afternoon at
2:30 O'Clock. The idea of having the
council locate the shipping place is a
suggestion of the mayor. and the ap-
pontment of the committee was at his
request. While four of the members of
the committee have visited the present
shipping point and acquainted them
selves with the situation, it is probable
that an official visit will be made today.
Thomas Manning, one of the con-
tractors seen yesterday afternoon, said
they were now using the platform on
the 500 line near Rice street. This was
the place where the citizens had torn
down the platform erected by The con-
tractors, and to prevent the same thing
being done again two watchmen had
been employed to watch the place at
night. 49,. --i
