THE FREE COINAGE OF SILVER.

A correspondent asks THE CALL to an
swer the following question:
WIN free coinage of silver be benefit to the
working people and producers of the United
States?
In the end. yes. The free coinage of
silver would lead to the re-esta bills hment
of the double standard of gold and silver,
which would unquestionabiy be a benefit
to the great body of producers. But the
enactment of an unlimited silver coinage
law while silver is at anything like its
present discount in respect to gold would
work great hardship to the debtor class
An unlimited silver coinage act would for
time establish the single standard Of sill
yer. The result of the single standard of
silver would he that wages would be paid
In silver. while debts would be payable in
gold. Every note of hand, whether Sc
cured by mortgage on property or
not, is in this State payable in
gold. To avoid this cOnditiOn-that
is. the payment Of wages In silver and The
purchase of gold 10 pay debts with-the
conservative friends of bimetallism pro-
pose in some way TO raise the commercial
value of silver before authorizing uulim-
tied coinage. This may be done by pro-
hibiting the importation of silver in any
form, by monetary and commercial union
with silver-using countries, or by interna-
tlonai agreement as to a ratio between
gold and silver at which coin of both
metals shall be accepted in all countries
belonging TO the union. The more radical
advocates of unlimited coinage of silver
claim that the fact of opening the mints

an immediate appreciation of silver to its
legal ratio to gOld-that is 10 the ratio of
l to 16. The ground for this assumption
is less solid than the Conservative silver
men would like to see IT, The United
States, with such allies as il might intlu-
ence, would probably bring silver to its
old ratio in time, but meanwhile The debtor
class would have hard time Of ii.

ELECT THE WHOLE TICKET.

The Non-PartiSan movement is growing
stronger every day. II is drawing from
both the great and all the minor parties
and factions. People are fOeking to it be-
cause they begin to see that il is the
straight way out OF the slough of corrup-
ton into which the bosses have led and
pushed and seek to push deeper the local
government 1t is state of war in which
San Francisco finds itself. The business
and industrial interests of the city have
taken up arms against their despoilers.
Their victory should be SO complete as
to convince the forces of misrule that the
power of awakened public opinion is ire
sistible. The whole Non-Partisan
ticket from top to bottom should be
elected by handsome majorities. Moth
ing else will so strike terror to the
hearts of the bosses and their followers.
If there is any doubt whatever about the
election OF any of the candidates on
the ticket it is in the case of
some of those candidates who
are not On any of the other tickets. 1t is
of the utmost imp rtance that these can
didates be elected. The administration of
justice and the restriction and punishment
of public corruptionists depend upon the
election of James McNab as Sheriff and
Barclay Henley as District Attorney:

Zens for purposes of assessment calls for
the success of John D. Siebe. 1t is of i'm
pOrtance that every one of the independent
Non-Partisan candidates for Supervisors
should be elected. The moral effect of their
election will be worth millions to San Fran
cisco. The especial effort for the indepen-
dent candidates is essential because many
Republicans and Democrats may vote for
their party nominees merely through force
Of habit or political inertia. No good citi-
zen should be swayed by political habit in
this election. 1t is a time for wide-awa ke
independent thinking and acting for the
public good. There never has been so good
chance within twenty years for people's
victory. II it be not won now the bosses
can fairly claim that a majority of our
people are sc demoralized as to be recon-
ciled to boss rule and universe corruption

THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS

We imagine that few people had ever sup
posed that there were ss many as 1900 second
hand clothes members In New York until that
number of them struck for higher wages last
week. IL is useful industry In which they are
employed, and in which they are aided by the
old cle'men. IL takes skill TO make last years

The owner of IL saves money, too. by the mend

IN THE NAME OF THE PARTY.

When ex-Mayor Grant of New York was
officially informed of his nomination BY
Tammany for the coming Mayoralty term
he accepted with the following compliment
to the Tammany organization:
/ shall run In the interests OF the political
organization with whose fortunes have been
identified ever since l reached manhood, and
which / believe to be as pure political organl-
cation as ever was formed in this or any other
city. do not pretend that 1t is perfect, that it
embodies all goouness, but do believe that IL
has, through its members who have been placed
in Office during the last six years, given The
city of New York better administration OF its
affairs than has been given to any other city In
this country.
The Burns morning organ in this CITY
initiates the a0asement of Mr.. Grant. IL
actually prouounces the Burns ticket as
whole unexceptionable. The interests of
this city, il says, will be safe In their hands
in the event of their election. The Tam
many organization in New York and the
Burns organization of San Francisco are.
In the estimation of those who expect to
profit by their rule, a pair of heavenly
twins. The one is Democratic, the other
Republican in national politics, but In
local matters they represent the highest
development OF the science OF govern
ment Since Mr.. Grant has declared Tam
many as pure a political organization as
ever was formed. the people of New York
need expect no change in practices should
Mr.. Grant be elected. In his opinion
change could hardly be improvement.
The best he can do is to give the people a
continuation of the coudition Of things
which the Lexow committee has disclosed.
II Tammany could he judged on the
merits of its performance as a municipal
governing power, it would d not get one-tent h

election of the ticket lies in the fact that

THE RAILROAD COMMISSION.

The election of Messrs. La Rue, Marcus
and Phillips, the Tariff Association candi-
dates for the Office of Railroad Commits
sioners, will be notice to the Southern
Pacific Compan that their hold on Cali
foruia is broken. The attitude of the
Southern Pacific Company to the two old
parties is such that voters who desire to
hold the company in restraint may be
honestly in doubt whether voting one or
the other is the more effective way to re-
buke the company. The company is, to
an extent, behind both the Republican
and Democratic parties. Il gives orders
to both Buckley and Burns. But it did
not dictate the nomination Of either one of
the candidates for Railroad Commissioners
whose names are mentioned above.

Democratic party and its free-irade policy.

THE ISSUE MADE.

Whatever may be said of the political
insight of Mr.. Cleveland aud Mr.. Wilson
in declaring the present tariff law but a
step in the direction of free trade, to be
succeeded by other steps if the people
should indorse what is done. il must be
admitted that the declaration was honesi.
Both meant what they said. Being free
traders in,principle. they were not willing
the country should believe that they were
content with the tariff bill that was
passed. 1t now remains Tor the people of
the United States to say whether or not
they want further legislation in the direc-
tion Of free trade. Ii they do they Will
elect Democratic House; if they do not
they will place 1t out of the power of Mr..
Cleveland and Mr.. Wilson to car ry out
their avOwed PURPOSE.

ment The tariff battle is practically
postponed until 1896. It Is important that
the Republicans carry the next House that
stop may be put upon the Democratic
tendency to attack American industries,
but it is not possible that Republican
House can do more than hold things as
they are. But IN this State the corpora
ton issue is growing more acute each
year. The Southern Pacific has never
been more active than it is this year. and
its hand has been visible in the conven-
tiOns of both parties. The reason for this
is apparent. The Central Pacific debt is
about due, and funding bill which en-
ables them to collect the debt from year to
year from the industries of California will
be passed or rejected by them in the next
Congress.

Republican club is being swung. but with
less effect, to restrain voters from break
ing away from the Burns organization.
No one regards Burns as fit man to boss
the party. No one doubts the substantial
correctness of the assertion that he was
placed at the head of the party by the
Southern Pacific Company to elect either
Burns or NJ. II. de Young as United States
Senator should the party cry succeed in
electing Burns Legislature. The public
see. therefore, what ignoble purposes the
sentiment of party loyalty is made to
serve. In New York the purpose is to
perpeiuate municipal government that is
disgrace to the nation, and in San Fran
cisco the double purpose is to plunder a
great city and continue the bondage uf CAL
ifornia to the Southern Pacific Company.
