USrrED STATES SENATE.

UNITED TAI SENATE
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 6, 1894.
Ed. SILVER STATE: The effort Of the
gold combination TO silence the voice Of
Nevada in favor Of silver by making the
battle-born State the tail to the Repub-
lican kite Of gold contraction will de-
ceive no one. II Nevada can be STAN
peded into the caucus corral Of either
wing Of the gold combination, Lombard
and Wall streets will rejoice. The sue
cess Of the third party 10 polling more
than . million votes in the last campaign
has alarmed the gold trust, which can
not afford to allow . party to exist which
il does not own.
The New York Tribune is the organ
Of the Republican wing Of the gold gym
dictate, and is the most persistent advo-
cate Of gold standard contraction Of any
paper 10 the United States. How car
the owners Of that paper consistently
advocate the free coinage Of silver in
Nevada through the Territorial Enter
prise, owned by the same parties! Is j,
possible that the Tribune and the Enter
prise can both be sincere while one is for
the single gold standard, and the other
for free coinage mo man can serve two
masters; for either be will hate the one
or love the other; or else he will hold tc
the one, and despise the other. Ye can
not serve God and mammon."
Those in Nevada who banker after the
flesh pots of Egypt and are willing
to sell their birthright for q mess Of pot
tage will be in q hopeless minority.
Their complaint that the Nevada dele
CATION 10 unable to deal out to them
either Republican or Democratic pie may
seem to the few who prefer q petty
office to the general good, just and rea-
sonsble; but if the Republican party, az
established by the votes Of the repre-
sentatives Of the party in both Houses
Of Congress aud by the Federal admins
tration when in power, or the policy Of
the Democratic party dominated by Mr..
Cleveland, shall prevail, Federal patron
age will not feed fifty men. There will
be no mint or assay office or public bust
ness Of any consequence. for when pri-
vate business is destroyed in our State,
there will be little left upon which Fed
eral officials can ~fatten. The people OIL
Nevada are not dogs, and will not de-
stroy each other for a dry Federal bone
thrown to them after the parasites of the
East have gnawed all the meat off OF it,
The victory of two years ago over the
two wings of the gold combination in
Nevada has done more to encourage the
hope Of the people Of the United States
that a third party will rise and free the
country from the tyranny of gold con-
traction than any other event in the last
twenty years. 1t made the free coinage
Of silver the ~watchword and rsllying cry
of millions Of patriotic men in every sec
tion of the country. 1t pointed the way
TO victory over the enemies of the re-
public, and made Nevada the guiding star
10 the political revolution which will
break the chains Of gold contraction and
restore the Government of the United
States to the people who established it.
l have 3 larger correspondence with
the people in every section than ever be-
fore. My means Of judging public SEN
timent are as good as those of any other
man, and l am glad to assure the people
Of Nevada that the movement among
the masses for the coinage Of both gold
and silver at the ratio of l6 to l, and
the issuance Of money by the Govern
ment without the intervention of banks,
is becoming irresistible and cannot now
be checked or retarded by q promise Of
Federal Offices in Nevada, or by the mis-
representations of newspapers under the
control Of Wall street. Yours, very
truly. WIN. NJ. STEWART.
