Mr.. EDIToR:-The value of legal ten
der money is impaired to it by an act
of the General Government of each ma
ton, and hence the value is always ex-
trinsic.
Gold and silver coin never pass at
their stamped value in any commercial
nation in payment of large debts, but
are always exchanged by the weight of
pure metal in the coin, thus converting
the coin into a commodity.
By a fiat act of the Parliament of
England passed in 1914, the bullion
value per ounce of pure gold, was
made Interchangeable in all commercial
nations, thus holding the stamped value
of gold coin at a parity with the fixed
value of the pure gold in the coin solely
by UiTtWe Of free coinage.
By a fat act of the Congress of the
United States the value of the pure sill
yer in a standard silver dollar, was
held at parity with the stamped value
of the dollar from 1892, solely by virtue
of free coinage.
The value of pure metal in gold and
silver standard coin cannot be main
tanned at a parity with their stamped
value eGcept By free coinage.
When gold and silver are coined into
legal tender money under a free coin
age act, the coin can be readily con
verted into bullion or exported without
loss in value, thereby removing the
debt paying medium from debtors and
forcing them into bankruptcy when
they have plenty of assets to pay all of
their indebtedness, and oftentimes re-
sulting in c~onfiscating a large portion
of the debtors assets.
Gold and silver legal tender coin is a
tool stealthily used by financial Jug
glers to defraud the common people.
As coined silver is money of account
with all commercial nations, and the /

A CHANGE IS NEEDED.
UNION RIDGE, N. @.

ON4ON AG1OONS ASOs
Mr.. EDIToR:-When any government
becomes so corrupt as to destroy the
peoples happiness, it is the right of the
peopIe to abolish it and to establish an
other. The history of the present ad-
ministration. as well as it's predeces-
sors Republican, is a history OF re
peated injuries to the toiling masses.
For the last thirty years our legal rep
resentatives have heaped upon this
great people laws unjust and even
dangerous to the prosperity and happi-
ness of the people of this land of the
free and home of the brave" The late
war laid the corner stone by which the
people have been largely robbed of mil
lions of treasure, land and blood. This
plot was laid for unjust accumulation
whereby the banker and money lender
might grow fatter and live in luxury
at the expense of a nations blood. The
present Congress will be a disgrace to
the next generation if it does nothing
to relieve the people in such a time OF
need. They have made platforms and
told lies to deceive the people, and gone
to Washington to serve the people, but
instead of serving them they have sold
their own principles and our rights,
and any man or set Of men who would
do that ought to be put out of existence
so far as political matters are con-
cerned.
Now, men and readers of this paper,
as long as we send men to enact laws
for us who have no respect for this
word, none for their country which
gave them birth, and none for the God
who created them, we need not expect
any relief. To say the least, it is sur
prising that so grand a nation as this
would throw herself away, tear up
such a grand government as this once
a Twenty years ago a man might
enter into a business, no matter of
what nature or how much responsible
ity, and have some assurance of sue
ceediug in life; but now he may have
something that tends to make him en-
joy a full degree of ease in this life; yet
he would hesitate to enter in that bust
ness Money matters must get easier,
times get better or else times must get
worse. We as a God fearing people
would like to live aquiet and peaceable
life and die a natural death; but we
would rather stain the earth with u
blood and die heroes than to have our
substance taken from US, as an insect
does a plant, and die slaves to those
who are no better by nature than we.
The Alliance was organized to enlighten
the people politically and it has accom-
plished its purpose to a great extent,
and we as a Republic have a right to
say how much money shall be coined
in this, country. But a solid,
united action is all that can preserve
or restore our old government.
