PoPuLIsM IS PAPERIsaI.

The Populists claim that theirs is
the only free silver party and they do,
on paper, demand the free coinage of
silver at the ratio of 16 to l. But what
is the good of that demand in words,
when this is what they really want as
published in Their press:
1t is astonishing how little machin-
cry is necessary to put into operation
the Populist money plan. Congress to
authorize the issue of $4,000, 100000 for
the purpose of establishing a monetary
system for the use of the people aI-
thorizing loans, discounts and eX-
changes to be made through the money
order system on any property that is
good security at the rate of per cent.
| for loans of less time than one year,
and 3 per cent. rate for one year and
over.
If Congress can manufacture and is
sue money SO easily, what is the use of
coming either silver or gold in any
quantity or at any ratio? And why
limit the sum to four thousand mil
lions. Why not double that amount?
Why not give everybody as much pa
per money 90 as they desire? If it
does not need to have either silver or
gold behind the paper issued by the gov
eminent. in which it is to be redeemed,
what is the good of going to the ex-
pense and trouble of making coin out
of metal?
1t is claimed by these paper finan-
ciers that. France issues bank notes
without any promise to redeem them
in coin. If there is any such paper is
sued by the French government the
only thing that keeps it valuable as
money is the certainty that ON taking
in to bank, its face equivalent in sill
yer or gold at the option of THE hold
er, viii be given in exchange for it.
And that shows that there is some
thing material behind the paper in
which it is redeemable that gives it
value.
The free and unlimited coinage of
silver does not require any such unten-
able and haseless argument as the rag
money theory. Paper notes may be
ISSUED, as a matter of convenience, re-
deemable in coin. They will remain
on a parity with gold and silver as
long as they are so redeemaIble. When
they fail to produce their face value
in the money metals they will depre-
ciate and go down in proportion to
the difference. This has all been gone
over many times and was thoroughly
ventilated when the greenback craze
broke out before.
Populism is really the worst foe to
free coinage there is in the political
world for the reason we have ad-
vanced. Gold and silver have been the
money of the world from the earliest
ages because of their natural and SUI
perlative adaptability for the uses to
which money may be put. Both are
needed to supply the needs of trade
and commerce. There cannot be too
much of either, unless the experience
of mankind from the beginning should
be changed. Paper can only be their
representative and can never take
their place for obvious reasons. Pop
ulism is paperism in finance, and is
just as f1ilnsy as the rag or straw pulp
it would spread out and stamp as
money.

The American Railway Union has
shown itself to be power in control

try We do not say it is using that
power wisely. 1t looks as though it
was carrying it too far. But the union
is likely to be a big factor in politics.
and it is very gratifying to know that
lit is sound on silver. At a meeting of
the order in Chicago the following res
olutions ON the subject were adopted
with enthusiasm:
Whereas, When the fathers laid the
foundations of our government with
the experience of all mankind to guide
them, with prophetic wisdom, they i'm
bedded in its constitution the principle
that the money of the people should
have for its base gold and silver and
proceeded with consumnate wisdom to
enact a system of laws for their free
coinage and a ratio to govern their
values, which remained the supreme
monetary laws of the land until 1873,
when they were stealthily repealed to
the lasting disgrace of the few who
were and are guilty of that calamitous
act, therefore be it

The only objection likely to be Of
fered to these resolutions is that in
calling for the redemption of certifi-
Gates in the kind of coin deposited, the
complete intercha gibility and parity of
the two money metals may be i'm
paired. But anyhow it shows a proper
appreciation of the silver question,

out the country.

proper and adequate duties. In the
preparation of the act of 1890 the COM
mittee who had charge of that measure
used great care in investigating the
question as to what those rates should
be. l believe that the business of sugar
refining, whatever its condition may be
today-ttat is. whether it is controlled
by a single corporation or by eight or
ten corporations-is entitled to protec-
ton and to recognition.
Senator Aldrich defended the larger
sum which the Sugar trust gained
under the Mckinley bill and attacks
the smaller amount which the trust
may gain under the Wilson bill unless
the whole thing shall be stricken out
by the House. And that is Republican
consistency!

If the Mckinley tariff is to remain
in force until January 1, people will
be compelled to pay the going high
prices on woolens, or shiver without
them until midwinter. There is no
sense in postponing the relief which
the bill was designed to give to the
poor. Certainly the masses are more
entitled to consideration than the
manufacturers for whose benefit the
postponement is made, especially since
the manufacturer is to reap the bene-
fits to accrue from free wool.-Omaha

Whatever good results may be OBJ
tanned from the meeting of the Repub-
| lican National league in Denver will
not be due to any positive action or to
any particularly fervent enunciation of
principles. This is not a very good
year for radical steps. AS General
Garrison puts it, it is the critical time
between Republican defeat and Repub-
lican victory. That is to say, the pre-
sumption is that Republicans, profiting
by the errors and blunders of their OPP
ponents, have only to pursue a policy
of conservatism and waiting to receive
back the trust of power they forfeited
two years ago. A simple declaration of
allegiance to the Minneapolis platform

pie have forgotten already what the

The Philadelphia Ledger Rep) COM
menting on the assassination of Carnot
and the attitude of the anarchists to-
wards society in general, says:
The man who declares war upon
social order in any form should be
taken at his word before he has had an
opportunity to do any other mischief
and be deprived of his liberty if not of
his life. Tolerance only enables the
anarchists to perfect their plans for
murder; it does not change their views
or restrain their wicked instincts The
men who proclaim themselves as enc
mics to society should be treated as
too dangerous to be at large. Some
should be sent to hospitals for the in
sane, others to jail and still others to
the gallows or the guillotine 1t is the
height of folly to wait until they have
murdered a good man, like President
Carnot, whose life was more to the
world than the lives of ali the anar-
chists who have ever lived, and then
punish the one instrument concerned
in his taking off, leaving all the other
anarchists free to seek fresh victims.
Undoubtedly too much tolerance has
been granted the advocates of murder
and rapine. They declare war upon
society, and society has the right TO
preserve itself and it should exercise
that right.

Entertainment by the Young Mems
Catholic Association.

There was good audience, despite the
weather, at the free lecture and concert In
st. Mary's school hall last evening which
was held under the auspices of the Young
Mems Catholic Association.
Preceding the lecture there was pretty
recitation by Miss Maggie Burns. Her
rendition was clear and distinct and
evoked we'll merited applause.
She was followed by Miss Nellie Laugh
ran with soprano solo, which was ex-
cellently rendered and for which she was
heartily encored.
After a piano solo by Miss Clara X.
Osreld, which was artistically executed,
the lecture took place.
Seated upon the platform were Rev. w.
Halligan, Rev. NJ. Fitzgerald, Rev. J. IL.
Lennon, President Up. J. Quinn, Joseph
Osfield, Jr., and officers of the association.
The lecture was by Hon. Charles T..
German Of Providence, and his subject
was "The duties of young men In their
relations to public life."
1t is needless to say that he handled his
subject in an intelligent and mastery
manner. He was frequently interrupted
by applause evidenciDg that he touched
a responsive chord In the minds OF his
listeners.
