Under free coinage the Government
does not purchase the silver or the gold.
It simply receives the bullion ct the

and If the bullion requires to be refined

Then the Government puts its stamp on

the CAUSE OF THE sTRIKE V.

The primary cause Of the great strike
dates back to last October, when the
Pullman Car Company made a cut in the
wages Of its employees Of 80 l.3 per cent.
The reduction was acceded to by the
employees with the promise from the
company that the old rate would be re-
stored in May Of this year. Last May
the employees asked the company to
make the restoration. The officials OF
the company refused the demand, which
resulted in the entire force Of 4,3OO quit.
ting work and q strike ordered. The
American Railway Union, an organiza'
tion the membership Of which is esti'
mated to be 1900, 900. enlisted itself in
the cause Of the Pullman employees, and
the general tie up now existing followed.
From our mesger telegrsphic reports we
can but imagine what is taking place
throughout the United States. Two
mighty powers-Capital and Labor-are
struggling for supremacy. As yet no
serious conflicts have taken place, but
how long the present peaceable condition
will exist no one can tell. Our latest
advices indicate that there is no change
in the situation. Let us hope that the
existing trouble will be settled speedily
and satisfactorily to all the parties con-
carned.

IT WAS THE TARIFF.

An ominious silence pervades the sane.
tums Of the Democratic and mugwump
press which rejoiced so loudly after the
repeal Of the silver purchasing clause Of
the so-called Sherman Act and de-
clared that silver purchases and not the
tariff were responsible for the hard times.
We still recall che remarkable declara-
tion of the New York Evening Post on
the 3lst of October last, a prophecy
which 1t now appears to strangely for
get. This is what it said. How foolish
ii sounds now:
with the repeal Of the silver pur-
chase law we may look for an immediate
revival Of business activity in every di.
rection. We shall probably witness a
business boom in the next twelve
months the like Of which has not been
experienced since lS79-s0, and this will
be due, not to the tariff nor the fear OF
tariff changes. but simply to the renewal
Of confidence in the standard Of value"

FREE COINAGE LEAeUE

The Democrats coaisrs7cs ii ozshA.
which was attended BY ihozsAn3s q
delegates, organized 3 Free Coinage
League. A call Was issued inviting the
earnest eo-operation Of every Democrat
who favors free coinage in electing dele
gates to the Democratic State Couvsn-
ton. The resolution offered by Con-
gresham Bryant, fAvoring the inmedi-
ate restoration OF the free and unlimited
coinage Of gold and silver at the ratio OF
l6 to | withou. waiting for the consent
Of any other nation, was adopted and
the members OF the League pledged to
use their efforts to get such a plank in
corporated in the Democratic platform.
Would it not be more consistent for
Nebraska Democrats and Republicans
who favor the free coinage Of silver to
follow the example of Nevada and make
common cause against Wall street!
Every intelligent person knows that the
leaders of the old parties are opposed to
the free coinage Of silver. They do not
let party names and ~prejudices divide
them on monetary questions which come
before Congress. They vote together on
all bills relating to silver. Republicans
and Democrats voted alike on therepeal Of
the Sherman Act and sustained Cleve-
lands veto of the seigniorage bill. Reed
and Harter, Burroughs and Tracey re-
corded their votes on the same side OF
these measures, and to overcome the
combination silver men Of Republican
and Democratic antecedents must unite
and vote together for free coinage. Ne
vada has set an example for other States
to follow and the sooner they fall into
line and elect silver men who will act in.
dependent of old party caucuses and de-
crees the quicker will be remonetized.-
