Commissioner Arnold gave his views
on two subjects to GAZETTE reporter
last week. One was on the Coxey
movement. He said: ut is foolish
It should have never been originated
it should neve have been allowed tt
proceed. The government, however
makes a mistake in interfering with
any peaceable movement they make
while they are in Washington. Lei
them alone. They will be starved
out" Another was on the silver ques
ton: "This country is large enough
to have it's own monetary standard
The idea of depending upon England
and other foreign countries is absurd
England should be but the tail to oul
kite. AS it is now, on the money
question we are but the tail to Eng
lands kite" Again: THE sooner
the people vote on this Democratic
administration the better it will suit
me. 1t has shown that it is utterly
Incompetent to run this government. ,
