KELLY JOINS THE PoPULISTS.

A Prominent Indiana Democrat Formal
ly Announces His Change of Faith.
indianapolis. Ind, Dispatch: The
report that Freeman Kelly, one of the
foremost democrats in northern In
diana, has joined the Populists is con-
frmed. Mr.. Kelly was a candidate
tor congress in his district several
years ago, and was defeated by John
Il. Baker, now United States district
judge, by forty votes. Kelly served
two terms in the legislature. In an
interview Mr.. Kelly says:
81 have left the democratic party
and shall never return to it. The
democrats have lied to me long
enough. The party has made prom.
ises year after year and has failed to
keep them. Ithas been captured BY the
gold bugs ia the east, and the great
west, which is suffering for the want
OF money with which to do bust
ness, need never expect any assistance
from it. | have left the party because
it has not been true to its principles
on the money question. have Joined
the Populists because that party rep
resents my views on the money ques
ton. We need more money with
which to do business. The circulation
per capita has steadily decreased until
there is not enough money with which
to carry on the business OF the coun.
try. The people can not expect relief
from either of the old parties. Neither
can get away from the power of Wall
street. The latest cry is for an inter
national monetary conference. Why
should we 60 into an international
conference while we are starving here
at home for want of mtney? Let's
look after our own affairs first; let's
give the country money ON which to
do business and the cry of hard times
will soon pass away"

HOW silly


Z Congress accepted the senate bill
and then turned round and passed
bills to put coal, iron and sugar on
the free list This is like voting
against the only silver law we had in
order to clear the deck for free silver.
1t will end about the same. The
house was either bought, bulldozed or
scared into their support of the senate
bill with all its monstrosities. 1t was
simply confession of weakness that
is wholly inexcusable. II the sugar
trust and few senators are going to
dominate legislation what is the use
to have house? 1t is silly now for
the house to send bills to the senate
to undo the mistake it has made.
Those bills have been voted on separ-
ately in the senate and defeated. II
is clear case Of dishonesty or incom.
potency.

LOCAL POLITICS.
II 1t Does Not Agree With the Platform
and Action Of the National Party
1t Is a Fraud.

-ANhaNh VI INV -'oNiVhoA any
1t Is a Fraud.
The effort is being made in the west
aud south to deceive the people again
on the silver question. Although the
national platform contained a plank
declaring for free silver on an inter
national basis, which means an lu-
creased ratio and the consent Of Great
Britain, that declaration was miscon-
strued in the campaign of 1892, and
nearly every southern and western
democratic congressman, and many
republican congressman, were elected
on the strength Of their declarations
in favor Of free silver, at the ratio OF
l6 to l, and without awaiting the ac-
ton of any other government Every
body knows the result. A majority
OF both parties voted against free
silver Both candidates for President
in 1o99 were opposed to free
silver. This is the record and it cant
be wiped out. This means that the
government of the United States has
practically gone out of the business
of coming money and regulating
the value thereof" and has turned
that prerogative over to the bankers.
1t means that the whole business OF
this country is now placed in the
hands of perhaps fifty bankers and
brokers who can contract or expand
the currency at will. Who can pro-
duce panic whenever they desire
and force the government to issue
bonds at their bidding. In some of
the southern states the derIocrats
have incorporated a 16 to l silver
plank in their platform. In Califor-
MIA the republicans have done the
same thing. II this is not for the
purpose of deceiving the people,
why is it? With eighty majority
in the house the democrats
were unable to pass free
silver measure. No sane man
claims for an instant that the party
will be able to increase that ma jority.
On the other hand it is more than
likely that ii will be reduced. If the
democratic party, then, could not give
usfree silver with eighty majority, how
can we hope TO have it from a house
with a reduced majority. The facts
are plain. The democratic party is
opposed tofree silver. That is, a ma
Jority of their leaders ore. If the
western and southern democrats are
sincere in their declarations for free
silver let them cut loose from a party
that Is responsible for its defeat.
What can the minority expect to do
against the majority when it is known
that the majority is and will be as
sisted by the republicans. If the south
ern democrats are in favor of free silver
Iet them show themselves to be so by |
attaching themselves to a free silver |
party No one expects free silver at |
'he hands of the republicans. The
whole record is against that party |
With more force than The democratic
party. Only fifteen out OF one hun.
ired and twenty-eight votes that were
asst favored free silver. The adoption
II free silver plank in the state
as has been done BY the
democrats of Arkansas and the repub-
leans OF California, is fraud, q de-
usion and a snare. These men know
nat SO far as its influence in national
'ffairs will extend it amounts TO
lothing. 1t is simply a case of q
'romise OF the tail to wsg the dor.

AMONG THE RECORDS.
HOW THEY VOTED ON THE EX-
TENSION OF NATIONAL
BANK CHARTERS.
The Power Of the Banks Over the Cur
rency and Over the Business
of the Country.

No question before the American
people is equal in Importance to the
money question, and no phase of the
money question is of equal Importance
to that relating to the power to issue
it. The constitution OF the United
States gives congress the power to
'coin money and regulate the value
thereof" To coin means to create,
and the Supreme court of the United
States has said that congress has the
power to issue or create paper money,
and to make it a legal tender
in the payment OF debts In
1910 the democratic party
declared that congress had no right
to charter a United States bank"
They further declared that such an
institution was dangerous to the lib
critics OF the people and calculated to
place the business of the country
within the control of concentrated
money power and above the laws and
the will Of the people" That plank
was reafirmed in every platform up
to 1860 Since that time both parties
have espoased the cause of the banks
OF issue. Jefferson said that banks
were more dangerous than standing
armies" At another time, in a letter
to Mr.. Eppes, he said, bank paper
must be suppressed and the circulat-
ing medium restored 10 the people to
whom it belongs" John c. Calhoun
said, THE bank is a union of the gov
eminent and the money power-a
union far more dangerous than church
and state" Henry Clay said, II con-
ceive the establishment of national
bank dangerous to the safety
and welfare of this republic"
Thos. q. Benton said: "Gevern.
ment ought not to delegate this power
issuing money if 1t could. It is too.
great power to be trusted to any
banking company whatever. or to any
authority but the highest and most
responsible government" In two of
Andrew Jackson's messages he op-
posed it with all the intensity Of his
nature In his farewell address he
said: s.rra. ..tl fy.ntoF s,l
"The result Of the ill-ad7ised legis-
lation, which esta blished this great
monopoly, was to concentrate the
whole moneyed power of the Union, /
with its boundless means Of corrup.
ton, and its numerous dependents,
under the direction and command of
one acknowledged head thus or.
ganizing this particular interest as
one body, and securing to it unity
and concert of action, throughout the
United States, and enabling it to
bring forward, upon any occasion, its
entire and undivided strength to sup.
port or defeat any measure of the
government In the hands of this,
formidable power, thus perfectly or
gained, was also placed unlimited
dominion over the amount OF the cir:
culating medium, giving it thepower
to regulate the value OF property and
the fruits of labor, in every quarter
OF the Union; and 70 bestOw prosper.

It is put there to catch votes. 1t is
not the policy Of the national parties
nor will it ever be put into effect by
them. Again we say if they are in
earnest with regard to free silver let
them join a free silver party-the
Peoples party.

BREAKING THE ICE.

ity or bring ruin upon any city or
section of the country, as might best
comport with its own interest or
policy"
No principle in political economy is
better established than that the
volume of money regulates its value
as compared with commodities. In
other words the volume of money in
circulation likes prices. Then the
power that controls the volume of
money also controls prices of commo-
dities. For this very reason, says
Daniel Webster, Congress was given
control over the currency" The
establishment Of the National bank
was surrender of that power. The
bankers have used it to their own ad-
vantage and against the people. The
system of national banks, is a nut.
she'll is, the people collectively as a
government loaning money to the
bankers at per cent and borrowing
it back at 10 and IL per cent The
banker gets interest on what he owes
and the people pay interest on what is
coming to them. No one doubts the
stability of the bank notes, because
they are backed up by the government
the people. They are based upon
the wealth and credit of the nation.
But why the people should loan them
to the banker at per cent and Dor.
row them back at 10 and i2 per cent,
is something that nobody but the
banker can explain, and he says SIT is
business, you know" Many a demo-
cratic speaker has pledged the party
to repeal this system, but we find
when they have the chance they walk
in the footsteps of the republicans
and are really in favor of granting
the banks still further privileges-Mr.
Voorhees, introducing a measure to
that effect. When the bill came I'D to
extendathe charter for twenty years
longer, July 10, 1892, the vote was as
