H WEEKLY TRIBUNE.
FRIDAY. JULY Z. 1898.
NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.

As we have urged from the beginnin
of the present financial disturbance. W
do not believe there is any cause TO
alarm or apprehension. We bellev
with Judge Goodwin of the Salt LAX
Tribune, that the very necessities o
the nation will make certain tie restor
alton Of silver, a recognition on a fai
basis, and that this is the very darl
hour Immediately preceding a daw'
that will be full of sunshine and hope.
We have reached a point in our his
tory at which the dictatiOn Of the Roths
childs and other seritic bankers oil
Europe and New York is going to ie
ignored and resented. Their system is
one OF pillage and the American people
have found 1t out.
These shrewd manipulators have al
ways known that gold and silver are
mercantile commodities which if bought
in the market where they are cheapest,
and sold in the market where they will
bring the highest price, can be made to
yield a handsome profit, and of late years
they have been bartering with gold alone
because it is the scarcest and most costly
product Of the earth that enters into
general This metal lends
itself readily to the purposes of men OF
this stamp because it's volume is so linn
tied and it has such a strong hold upon
the human imagination. They discerned
long ago also that it could be made to
yield a still larger profit if it could be
raised to a pinnacle as the only unit of
value. Nation after nation bowed I'M
der the golden yoke, and the schemers
believe today that they have the United
States in a situation where it will be
forced to yield to their behests.
They are counting without their host
as they will soon find to their sorrow.
Even the laboring classes of Germany
and England are at last aroused to a
sense of the injustice that has been
heaped upon them, and do the tricksters

who are the best informed and most in
telligent in the world can be made their
dupes: If they thus deceive themselves
let them watch the course of events dur
ing the next three months. They have
done much by bribery and corruption in
and out of congress, but it will not be
we'll for them to try that game this year.
Every mans vote will be watched as
never before, and every motive sounded
to the bottom.
1t is possible that the men who COM
mitted the great crime of 1873, were rot
fully alive to the enormity of their Of
fence, but no such excuse can be found
for men in the approaching congress.
republicans and independ-
ents of all shades of opinion Will be there
in full force to right the great wrong
by Sherman ct al. in '73
And they Will do their work well. The
cry of the people has gone up from every
constituency, and among the representa-
tives and the senators there IS convic-
ton today where there was not even
yesterday.
We repeat hat there is no cause for
alarm. Presidents and cabinets may be so
cranky, the people rule in this coun-
try, and God forbid the day shall ever
come when their rule may be abridged
IN the future as it has been under the
republican sway Of the last twenty years.
Remember this: 1t was in 1873 that
was knocked down. In 1893 its
restoration is assured by the laundering
.riciousness of its enemies.
