If congress has the right under the

was given them to be used BY them

A decreasing volume of money and
falling prices have been and are now
more fruitful of human misery than
war, pestilence and famine. They
wrought more injustice than all the
bad laws ever enacted.-U. S. Money
Commission.
III a government enacted a debt

circulation, and then contracted the
money volume before the debt was
paid, it is the most helnous crime a

L believe that banking institutions
are more dangerous to our liberties
than standing armies. Already they
have raised up a money aristOcracy
that has set the government at def

taken from the banks and restored to

whom it properly belongs. Let the
banks exist, but let them bank on
coin or treasury nOtes.-ThOmaS JEFF
fersOn.
The government ought not to dele
gate this power (of issuing money! if
1t could. 1t is too great a power to
be trusted TO any banking business
whatever. The people are not safe
when such a company have such a
power. The temptation is too great,
the opportunity too easy, to put up
and down prices, to bring the whole
community on its knees to these Nep-
tunes, who preside over the fux and
refux Of paper money. Stocks are
their playthings with which they
gamble with as little secrecy and less
morality than common gamblers

National Silver Convention.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 4, 1885,
The recent elimination of events of
the greatest moment to the people of
this country calls for wise counsel
and determined action on the part of
all patriotic citizens. A concerted
purpose is manifest to seize upon
the present opportunity to destroy
silver as money and to establish f.
nally and forever the single gold STAN
dard, and at one single stroke to
change all debts to gold debts, with
never ending rise of gold and fall of
prices. A financial disturbance,
largely artificial and needless, has
been created as an object lesson, and
falsely attributed to the silver law,
in order out of it to create a manifes-
tatiOn of public sentiment, under cov-
er of which the greater crime of
Overthrowing the money of the con-
fitutiOn and establishing a single
gold standard may be consummated.
AS part of the great conspiracy, the
mlntS of India have been closed and
the shock is felt around the world.
Congress has been called to meet
in extra session August I. If at this
session the money standard of the
constitution is Overthrown and the
single gold standard is finally eStab-
lished to be extended over the world,
an economic revolution will have
been inaugurated more disastrous to
the welfare of mankind and espec-
ially to the producing and labOring
classes, than any in the history of the
world.
In view, therefore, of the threaten
ing conditions that have arisen, and
in answer to the numerous appeals
for action, the executive committee
of the American Bimetallic league
has deemed it proper to call nation
al convention to be held in Chicago.
beginning August l, and to continue
as long as the convention may direct.
ALI members of the league are urged
to attend and all who are in favor Of
maintaining the money Of the consti-
tuition and opposed to the establish
ment of the single gold standard in
the United States, without regard to
party, are invited to attend and par
ticipate in the deliberations of the
conventions.
All economic associations and all
industrial organizations are requested
to send delegates to this convention.
A special invitation is extended to
members of congress and members
of state legislatures. Governors of
states are requested to send as many
delegates as they may deem proper.
BY order of the executive committee.

go, and hundreds Of notices Of his dis
appearance have been published
throughout the country, but up to
date no trace Of him has been found.
He is the son Of the manager of the
VOICE, who had hoped that after the
drst year was up Richie would make
his whereabouts known, if alive.
His father has not entertained the
idea that he has been killed, as there
could be no motive for such a deed,
unless some one knew or supposed he
had money and made way with him
for that reason. 1t is not certainly
known that he had money at the
time of his disappearance, although he
had written few days before that he
had nearly all the bankers and prom
inent business men of Chicago on his
list. He had before secured lis sub
scribeIs in seven days, at 80 cents
each, and often took as high as
twenty subscriptions day, so it may
be possible that he had money and
was made away with for that Dur
pose.
Richard was Of medium size for his
age, brown hair and blue eyes and
(; ir appearance. His father fears
that he has been enticed away and
induced to conceal his identity by de-
signing persons and would be glad to
receive any trace Of him. Informa-
tion addressed to o. NJ. Howard,

fully received.
