perfectly proper one and the crimes
for which he should be impeached
are real. The ADVOCATE called at

is no probability however, of inn
pSachment. Both democratic and
republican members of both houses
openly sanction the violation of law
when it's enforcement would be detri-
mental to the interests Of the all con-
trolling money power. Still the Re-
publican, which is conscious of this
contempt of law, continues to sup
port one Of the guilty parties while
it denounces Populists as anarchists.

ERNEST sEYD AND THE DEMONE-
TIZATTON OF SILVER.

AOIO. 4 LIS 10 q OIu1OuAS OnlDS w OO
at this time. There are some facts
that may be stated. The main ques'
tlon as to whether Mr.. Seyd was in
this country, as has been claimed,
and whether he expended money in
the corruption of members of con-
gress, we think must be regarded as
unsettled at present by all fsir-minded
people. The charge has been made
for years, aud has never been dis
puted until now. 1t will be remem-
bered that in the Mckinley guberns-
toriaI campaign Mrs. Emery made the
charge, and 1t was considered of suffi-
cient Importance to call out letter
from John Sherman, in which he at
tempted to answer the other charges
contained in the "Seversl Financial
Conspiracies." Now, it IS a most
singular circumstance, indeed, If Mr..
Sherman considered the charges of
Mrs. Emery of sufficient consequence
to call for a reply, that he did not
avail himself of that opportunity to
entirely demolish the whole fabric of
her argument by showing at that time
that Mr.. Seyd was not here at all. 1t
would seem that that was the very
occasion that should have brought
out this fact, if fact 1t is. Further
more the late day at which this
charge is denied is itself suspicious
circumstance; however, it cannot and
should not outweigh any positive evil
dence upon the subject.
In addition to the other facts con-
nected with the fraud OF 1873, Mr..
Frederick A. Luckenback, of Denver,
Colorado, made an affidavit before
the clerk of the supreme court Of that
state May 8, 1892, in which he said
that he was at Mr.. Seyd's house in
London in February, 1874, and that
Mr.. Seyd made a statement to him OF
which the following is part:
went to America in the winter of 1928
authorized to secure, if could, the passage
of bill demonetizing silver. It was to the
interest of those I represented, the gover-
nors of the Bank of England, to have it
done. took with me $1,000 sterling with
instructions that, if that was not sufficient
TO accomplish the object, to draw for
another 100000, or as much more as neces-
sary.
saw the committe of the house and sem
ate, and paid the money, and stayed in
America until knew the mepsure was safe.
Now, we know nothing OF the relis-
bility of Mr.. Luckenback. He is q
resident of Denver, and, if we mistake
not, the Rocky Mountain News, when
it published this affidavit, said that
he was a man of integrity and honor.
His testimony must stand the same
test as that of the other witnesses in
the case. It will not be forgotten
that Mr.. Hooper, in reporting the
bill to the house in 1873, distinctly
stated that the first draft of the bill
had been submitted to Mr.. Seyd, who
had made many valuable suggestions
concerning it, which the committee
had adopted. This is one side of the
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-11-01

saying, and the testimony attributed
to him to this effect is a forgery. Who
was responsible for that forgery
probably will never he known. There
Is NO doubt that it has been copied by
hundreds of people who honestly be-
lieved the quotation correct, they
never having looked it up in the
Record.
A letter has also been published
recently purporting to be written BY
the surviving sons of Mr.. Seyd de
nyipg that their father had been il
this country since 1856.
This is the other side of the ques
ton. We have no means of knowing
at present whether Mr.. Seyd ever
had any sons or not. This letter il
as likely to be a forgery as some o.
the other testimony. It must stanC
upon its own merits and the reader
must weigh the evidence pro and cor
for himself. We think every fair
minded reader will say the question
is not settled and must await add
tional evidence.
Now having summed up this testi
money pro and con there are certain
facts that should be stated in con.
clusion.
Flrst-Slver was demonetized al
the time stated.
Second-There was no demand fol
its demonstration and no agitation
of the subject whatever by the Amer
icsn people.
Third-Members of congress oi
both houses subsequently claimed
t1st they did not know when they
voted for the bill that it demone'
tized silver, and President Grant
stated that he did not know it when
he signed the bill.
Fourth Notwithstanding this pre-
tense the friends of free coinage have
struggled in vain for twenty years to
induce the members of congress to
repeal an act which it was claimed
was adopted without their knowledge
Of it's provisions.
Fifth-It is distinctly stated by the
chairman of the committee that had
the bill IN charge, that Mr.. Seyd had
made many valuable suggestions in
regard to it which the committee had
adopted,
Sixth-The demonstration of sill
YER is but one Of q series of fnan-
cisl measures, the first of which was
adopted in 1862, which, not only
from the character of the measures
themselves, but from the effects
which it is within the knowledge OF
all careful observers, have resulted
from their operation, have enabled
the favored few to rob the masses of
the American people and to grow
immensely wealthy by accumulation
Of the plunder.
In view of all of these facts and OF
the hi tory of the enactment Of the
measures referred to, which ID &C.
