OI TIC Argentine IltpuDllc hnu Oth-
er nations that have cheap money.
Do you not remember the financial
crash which occurred in the Argen.
tine Republic two or three years
ago, that shook the whole of Eu-
rope? Furthermore, do you not
know that all nations which have
cheap money are borrowers and not
lenders, nor purchasers of Ameri-
can or any other kinds of securities?
If you do, why do you continue
your fOolhardy course? Continuing,
the mOuthpiece says:
EYou claim to be friend of sill
yer; haven't you got a mighty poor
way of showing it? Did you ever hear
of the man that broke his wife's
head with a motto of ''GOd bless our
homer" Are you not acting after
the manner of the advice given by
an old negro to his son to 'sfOller
the straight and narrer path and
shun God?"
"What would you think of man
who claimed to be a good Baptist,
but didn't believe in immersion and
had his babies sprinkled?"
Grover Cleveland and Col. Pat
terson have shown their friendship
for silver by opposing measures
that would debase it. They have seen
the evil effects that followed the de-
basem ent of that currency, and in
opposing cheap money, they are in
with their party. The
democratic party has never advoca-
ted other than a sound and flexible
currency, and in this connection we
will ask, do you believe in honest
money? If SO, to use your own
language again, "was your CONVEX
sion to cheap money gradual, or
was it as sudden as Saul of Tarsus?"
You claim to be a democrat, but
your ear marks resemble that of the
pOpulites. Indeed, it does seem
that you are capable of committing
as rash an act as the fellow who Kill
led the hen that layed golden egg
every day. You seem to be silver
} struck but have a terrible aversion
to gold. The first instance record
ed that we know of, where prefer
ment caused murder, is when Cain
killed Abel because his offering was
rejected and Abel's accepted, and in
mouthpiece we see the same spirit
manifested, for he asks Col. Patter-
2 son, "When you were making that
banquet speech did you think you
owned Wall street or Wall street
owned you" Now had mouthpiece
been invited to speak in New York,
he would have considered it an hon
J or instead of a dishonor. But as
he was not, it seems that he has Qn-
dertaken to kill Col. Patterson, POI
litically, by resorting to the populite
method in exclaiming E'Wall street!
} Wall street!' The last of the re-
markable queries, which we will no
tice by one claiming to be demo-
crat is the following:
"Do you join Mayor Hewitt and
Mr.. Cleveland in lamenting the idi-
ocy of the Southern people? Do
you believe like them that all the
brains of the South went to New
: York after the war, and if you do,
don't you feel lonesome down here
among Us FOOLS"
It does seem that he who has any
regard for the truth would not have
brought such an accusation against
President Cleveland, the falsity of
which is clearly proven by the treat
ment the South has received at his
hands. Three Southerners were Sc
lected by the president for cabinet
positions, and Senator White who is
also q southern man, was appointed
by our President to the position of
Justice of the United States SU-
preme Court, the highest of all tri-
bunals. The number of Southern
ers who have been appointed to va
rious honorable positions is conclu-
siye evidence that President Cleve-
land has high regard for the South
and the Southern people, and the
vaporings and misrepresentation of
an "humble democrat of Tenth Dis
trict' will not estrange the South
ern people from him whom they have
eyer delighted in hOnOring. You
profess to be DEMOCRAT. Rrntus
professed to be a friend of Caesar,
but assisted in the assassination of
Caesar. 1t is to be hoped, however,
that you will not succeed in killing
the party to which you profess to
belong by the underhand method
you have adopted to stab its leader
