A GOLDBUG SCHEME.
MIR. CLEVEL4ND rs Welded TO A
NEW FINANCIALP PARTY
Commonly known as the "BaItimore'-It Is
the One Which the National Banks Pro-
muIgated-To Crush Out Silver.

mUlgate0-AO Crush Out silver.
washington, November 16.-(Special 1.-The
bond issue continues to be a fruitful topic
OF discussion here. By democrats it is not
approved. The president is severely criti-
cised for not waiting upon the assembling
of congress for it TO act. His friends, how
ever, say that would have defeated his plan.
He Is welded to an entire change OF the
financial system of our government on the
lines outlined in these dispatches last hight
Before congress meets he wants matters IN
such condition as to force upon congress the
necessity OF n change.
But the question naturally arises, VIII
congress adopt his suggestions? 20 many
members OF the house have been defeated
that no one can tell what that BODY VIII
do. Many OF these defeated ones attribute
their downfall to Mr.. CleVelands policies
and may be seeking revenge. Certainly the
silver men viii not agree To any Sucn Imam
cial policy as that which Mr. Cleveland
now has under consideration. 1t is too plain
on it's face that 1t is purely scheme or
the national banks to gain complete control
of our national finances. However, should
the pressure of the administration be so
powerful as TO put such plan through
the house it would strike an ugly snaS in
the senate The senate is a free silver body.
Its opposition to the Cleveland-Stewart
scheme would be stubborn and aggressive.
OF course, the silver republicans would
fight il. Then the southern and western
democrats would be almost soiidly arrayed
against this scheme, which is purely the
product OF the east and solely Tor the p1he-
ut Of the east.
Southern and western democrats are firm
in the opinion that Mr.. Cleveland has never
been q democrat on the financial problem,
ard his latest plan they will fight stubborn
ly and perhaps successfully. The senate
rules Will make them successful, even
should they be in the minority, which they
are not.
CIeveInnd's Future Policy.
However that may be, it is quite evident
that Mr. Cleveland is determined to blaze
out path Ia finances as he did on the
tariff. He will make the financial question
the great issue in his next message. he
may devote all the message 10 1t, and he
wants to make it the great issue in the 1876
campaign. In his message it is said he Will
be conservative and diplomatic-suiiiciently
diplomatic not to ALLEVIATE the southern and
western men from him. Then he expects
to drive his plan, or the idea OF financial
reform, for all it is worth. His idea IS to
convince the majority OF the people OF the
country that reforms on the line agreed
upon by the bankers and himself are what
is needed and to build up great cleveland
party in the country.
As little a. the average reader may think
OF it, Mr. Cleveland wants to be his own
successor in the white house. lie wants
another term as president and he wants 10
make it on the financial issue. He knows
his plan will not be popular with the blInet-
allists or silver men, but he thinks he can
draw sufficiently from the republicans,
through the moneyed interests OF the coun-
try to make his nomination and reelection
certainty. His idea is to build up
acknowledgements party, before the pow
er Of which the old democratic principles Of
gold and silver as the money OF the country
viii have 10 bow.
Fighting for MOnopOlies.
lie expects TO make a contest similar to
that which ne made for tariff reform. His
battle cry this time VIII be financial re
form The difference between thea and now
is that then he was fighting FOR the people
as AGAINST the monOpOiies. This time il ls
f5r the national JaaH mouOpoles. Whether
Or not il is against the people remains 10
be seen.
MIR cleveland expects to make his finan-
cial message the greatest production OF his
NE. He is devotns nj mis- time to its con
s.deratiJn now. lie Is convinced that some
change is needed. and that the clamor of
the people demands consideration. His idea
is to lead them from the silver path INTO
the jungle or bank beasts ana capture them
D. diplomacy to his eastern idea of finance.
at present that it will grasp at any plan
which has for catchwords flexible and
abundant currency.
As to Mr.. Carlisle.
Mr.. Cleveland has devoted much study to
the question, but his tutors have been the
national bal kers and they have won him
completely. Though in some directions it
may be held TO the contrary, Mr.. Cleveland
believes their IDEAS are the correct ones
and ha IS honest in his advocacy OF them.
He has been taught in that school OF
finance ami viii not believe that any other
mas merit. Indeed, he viii not listen to
argument or hear TO advice from other
scEoOls-nOt even from MIS- secretary Of the
treasury, whose advice ne totally Ignored
in the matter OF issuing bends. AMI pcremp-
toriy ordered TO do the work Il is true ne
afterwards attempted to smooth the matter
over by an interview pgaising Carl;sie's
ability and telling how conSenIal he and his
secretary Of the treasury we're, and how
they agreed upon the bond issue, but that
came after Mr. Carlisle had told how he
had argued with the president against u
bond issue st this time and how the presI-
dent overruled MIN and commanded him 10
issue them.
So MIR. Cleveland, believing. that he is
right and on popular lice-even though IN
the hands Of a few bankars-is going ahead
with that same energy and speed he de
voted 10 tdFlu REFORM. Just where MS new
ship viii land him only the future can dis
clcse. It's a turbulent sea over which he IS
20 sail this time.

WEDDED 40 THE PLAN.

Vexad Financial Problem.
