Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1894-09-02

could have carried out any fpolicy
unless they would consent to the
demonstration of silver. With al
this bitter experience before them
the so called Republican convention
of Nevada demands of her represen
tatives in congress to subordinate
the silver question and aid theil
enemies to obtain all they wan,
without demanding some recognition
of the rights of the people on the
paramount issue-the rsmonet;za
ton of silver.
The man in Nevada who talks tar.
iff while the gold combination is en-
shaving the country, is a goldbug of
the most perEicious type. Neither
the Omaha platform nor the plat.
form of the Silver party of Nevada
made the tariff an issue. On the
contrary the Silver party of Nevada
declared that:
100 much time has already been
lost in voting for the agents of the
gold trust, which action has para
lyzed the industries of the country
and ruined silver mining in Nevada.
The Endorsement already given by
the silver states of the advocates of
gold ih former elections is used as an
argument to show that the silver
states themselves are opposed to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver"
The Omaha platform declared two
years ago that "they (ths Denote
publican partly proposes to down
the outcriss of the plundersd t,-..l.le
with an uprosr of sham batt!, -, r
the tariff.
The Nevada Republicans are
sounding the Old gong. The anxiety
of the agents of the goll trust in Ne
vada as manifested in their platform
in making the tariff the paramount
issue shows their hostility to the
main interests of our state and their
fidelity to the teachings of the New
York Tribune and the other organs
of the alien gold combination.
The business world, including the
telegraph, the commercial press, and
the railroads are hypothetical to the
banking trust of Europe and of the
United States. Gold monopoly de-
termines the policy and controls
the operations of all other monopo-
lies. The free and unlimited coin
age of silver at the ratio of I6 to l in
the United States would break the
corner on money and return the con-
troll of business and enterprises to
the people.
Only one great issue can be settled
at time. The multiplication of is
sues is division of strength. The
united powers of the people 10 re-
CURED to meet and overthrow the
combined forces of the money power.
The financial question was the only
ssue in Nevada two years ago. On
that issue four fifths of the people
ire united. My course in the senate
was guided by the sole purpose of re-
moving the tariff issue and bringing
20 the front the silver issue. The
;ariff question il settled, so far az the
Democratic masses are concerned, by
he passage of the Democratic tariff
,ill. The Democratic masses COM
BOSE two-thirds of the advocates of
rec coinage of silver at the ratio of
g to l. They will now rally to the
tandard of free and unlimited coin
ge of silver at ratio of 16 to l as
he only remedy for the sffiiction
hey suffer.
Neither free trade nor protection
All be coupled with bimetallism, be-
ause more than one half of the ad-
COATES of free coinage are against |
and large portion of the
dvocates of free coinage are against
rec trade. The platform which
ouples either free trade or protec-
ion with the free coinage of silver
livides the opposition to gold mo-
lopoly. Why should an advocate Of
rec and unlimited coinage be com.
'elled to subscribe to either free trade |
r protection if he is willing to join
he free coinage forces and fight for
Iberty and equal rights?
Yours very firmly
