Fastening the Suspension of Gold

President Cleveland exhibits a remarkable
talent for laundering in financial matters.
He delayed taxing steps for the repeal of the
silver purchasing section OF tho Sher.

repeal might have averted. was in full
career. lie has twice usurpcd the power OF
Issuing bonds TO pay current expenses under
pretence OF maintaining gold payments
lie has forced through Congress a reform
tariff which does not yield revenue
enough for the wants OF the Government
although IL is loaded with an inquisitorial
and unconstitutional populist income tax

ment Of currency bill. tho inevitable effect
Of which will be to hasten national suspen-

rrcciated paper money Of war times.
