The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1894-01-03

Tor everyone KNOWS 6nRb inc pu0ESC are IL
NO way situated so as to pile these silver
dollars or certificates up in the treasury
il they so desired, but they in no sense
desire to. The publio's great desire al
present is money 10 use, and not to- pile
up with Carlisle. No doubt these kinds
of money return to the department
rapidly, but it is not as Carlisle pretends
returned BY the public, but by the Wall
street robbers, as Grover Cleveland de-
sires, to be exchanged for gold in order
to kee p the reserve down, and in the end
force an issue Of bonds. The people
never sent Q dollar tU the treasury, using
the term people as generally understood.
It is part Of the scheme in the interest
Of the rich, and Carlisle knows it, but
seeks to thus deceive the people.
Again he says, "Why this should be
the case is not easily understood, for al
though these certificates are not legal
tender in the payment Of private dsbts,
they are by the acts Of 1878 and 1886
made receivable for all public Dues" etc.
Mr.. Carlisle knows just why these money
dealers, who he terms the public, return
these certificates, despite his professed
ignorance on the subject. In the first
place, they are not a legal tender, there
fore were not made for the rich. They
will not pay off q single mortgage only
by COnsent, or other private debt when
otherwise specified, therefore cannot be
forced to premium, as gold, full Il gal
tender, can, at the proper time. Money
dealers do not want this kind OF money,
or rather currency, for it is not money.
Secondly, these money dealers have been
informed by this administration that
they will not pay out silver dollars for
these certificates, but will at all times be
pleased to pay QUE gold, full legal ten.
der, in order to keep the reserve down, OF
il need be, absorb it entirely, so as to
force congress to allow this tool OF plu-
tocrscy to issue $2OO,OJ0,OOO more inter
est bearing bonds in lieu Of the non in
terest bearing money, that the rich may
be made richer and the poor poorer,
through the democratic party of reform.
But, says some, what will you do to pre-.
vent the consummaGon Of the conspiracy
that will more completely impoverish the
peopleH Nothing but strive to open the
eyes Of the blind, for no power in this
country to-day can, or at least will pre-
vent the contamination. Every detail has
been thought out and every dog has, or
will receive his pay for doing the masters
binding. Deception is the bait given the
people to-day and 1t is swallowed with
avidity by them. They are IN distress,
therefore grasp at almost anything pre-
sented by the cloth; and yet these very
people have no confidence, psrsdoxicsl as
the assertion may seem, in even their
neighbors. Above all is this the darkest
picture Of the present, and for ought 1
know, the future. The fslsehood is be-
lieVsd while the truth goes R-begging;
no one has confidence in his fellow, as q
rule presssging; il history is repeating
itself, and believe it is, q conflict not
only OF words but Of force, wherein
friends are tried and by common inter
est forced together while confidence
born Of trial and great tribulstion is re-
stored in the minds Of men. Such has
