SILVER THE ISSUE!
0HI0's TRUE DEMOCRACY
THROWS DOWN THE
GAUNTLET.
Ringing Address in Advocacy of Free
Silver Coinage Sent Out
Among the People.

COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 4.-The fol
owing address has been issued
rom the Democratic state head
quarters;
Democratic Executive Rooms, |
Columbus, O., Oct. 3, 1894. {
70 the Voters of Ohio:
Two years ago the great national
political battle was fought upon
TWO principal issues-a reformation
of the tariff laws on an equitable
basis and the adjustment of the
silver question by the restoration
of its rightful power and functions
as one of the money metals under
the constitution.
During this contest however, the
issue of tariff reform was made the
paramount one. By the repeal of
the Mckinley law and the passage
of the law now in force tariff re-
form has been substantially won,
and the taxes of the people, espec-
tally upon the necessaries of life,
have been much reduced, and their
opportunities thereby enlarged.
In all probability there will not be
another general revision of the tar
if for years to come. Time, how
ever, will undoubtedly suggest
changes that should be made, and
additional legislation guided by
wise craftsmanship, will see that
this is done.
The money question, therefore,
is now the supreme issue before the
country. The Importance of the
question whether silver shall be re-
stored to its full money power can
not be overestimated, because it
affects every interest, great and
small, from the slightest concern of
the individual to the largest and
most comprehensive of the nation.
Especially does it affect those who
are engaged in active industrial
pursuits, for upon its proper solu-
ton depends whether their business
shall be profitable or Improbable.
This being so, and also for the rea-
son that so many misrepresenta-
tions and misstatements have been
made by the gold advocates in re-
gard to it, which are absolutely
false, we invoke the serious and in
telligent consideration of the voters
IF all the parties to the following
l. That money is the standard
by which the exchangeable value Of
III labor and the products of the
aame are determined.
Q. That, Notwithstanding the
assertion of the single gold stand
ard advocates that gold is an un'
varying measure, no money stand
ard has ever been nor ever can be
fixed and unvarying measure.
3. Business men must remembel
that money can be appreciated il

OVER 10000 MAJORITY.
Georgia Goes Democratic and Snowt
Under the Pops.

Advices from the Georgia state
election, held Tuesday is encourag-
ing to the Democracy. A lighter
vote was polled than two years
ago. The entire Democratic ticket
was elected by from 20, ,OOG to 10000
majority.
The Democratic ticket elected is
as follows:
Governor, William Y Atkinson.
Secretary of State, Allen d.
Chandler.
Treasurer, Robert U. Hardeman
Attorney-general, Joseph NJ. Ter
rel.
Comptroller-general, William A.
Wright,
Commissioner of Agriculture,
Robt. T, Nesbittt,
There are 173 counties in Georgia
and returns are coming in slowly
but there seems to be no doubt
Atkinsons majority for governor
will be about 10000.
The Legislature will be over
whelmingly Democratic.
LATER NEWS.
1t appears that the pops made
unexpected gains, as the following
later news show;
The Constitution publishes to-
day oct. 4th) returns from 1871
counties in Georgia, from unofficial
estimates compiled by its cores
pondents The unofficial returns
indicate that the state has gone
Democratic by upwards of 10000
majority, but the official count con-
solidations which took place at II
o'clock today, show that these fig
urcs had been reduced to 10000,
which is now accepted by conserv-
ative estimates on the Democratic
side.
Speaker Crisp's district gives the
largest Democratic majority of
any district in the state. He fig
ures conspicuously in the campaign
strongly advocating tariff reform
and the free coinage of silver. An
organized movement against re-
turn to silver coinage without
foreign consent was started early

value as well as in depreciation.
4. That when it appreciates,
prices fall. When it depreciates,
prices rise.
D. That the vaIue OF money it
self is fixed by its exchangeable or
purchasing power over other COM
modities, and this purchasing pow
er of money is determined wholly
and solely by the proportion that
the quantity of money in circula-
ton bears to other commodities. In
other words, when the supply of
money in circulation is small rela-
tive to other commodities, its pur-
chasing power is increased; when it
is great, its purchasing power is di-
minished. That is, the supply or
purchasing power of money is gov
erned by the supply of money and
the demand for money
The address proceeds by para
graphs numbering up to % to sup
port the foregoing propositions.
The demand for money is incessant.
The supply is the creation of the
government. In the United States
and western Europe, before the de-
monetization of silver in 1873, the
worlds supply of gold and silver
amounted to $1,000, 100000, very
nearly equally divided. Gold is the
money of redemption now. The
supply has been cut in two, causing
a fall in prices.
After reviewing in detail the
causes assigned for the business de-
preston and for the continued de-
cline in prices, all of which are pro-
nounced insufficient and contradic-
tory, the address says, this decline
is going on, and, therefore, we
can say that when a fall of prices
is found operating, not on one arti-
Gle or class of articles alone, but on
the products of all industries; when
found not to be confined to any one
claimant, country or race of people,
but to diffuse itself over all gold
standard countries; when it is found
not to be characteristic of any one
year, but to go on progressively for
a series of years, it becomes mani
fest that it does not and can not
arise from local temporary or sub
ordinate causes, but must have its
origin and development in some
principal of universal application.
Overproduction can not account
for it, for production means the
creation of wealth. Wealth can be
created in no other way; therefore,
if overprodnction is the cause, you
can create too much wealth, which
is the same thing as to says
that wealth is not wealth. Neither
can it be attributed to improv-
ed mechanical devices, progress,
in manufactures, improved trans
porations, inventions and bank
ing, ETC., because all oft hese lncreas-
edrelatively as rapidly prior to 1873,
rs they have done since; and for
twenty years prior to 1873 there
was no such fall in prices as there
has been since, but, on the contrary
there was a continual rise. Besides,
it is very strange that this fall be-
gan setting in at the exact mo-
ment when the link was broken be-
tween gold and silver. Againitls alb

Coinage Of the SeigniOrage.

WAsH1SGroN, d. c., March Go
slIuuld the Bland segniorage bill,
which has passed both the House and
the Senate, become law, the coinage
of 500 ,000, 900 of silver bullion will have
to be done at the mints of Philadel-
phia, San Francisco and New Orleans,
which are in fact the only mlnts Of the
government now in operation. Exclu-
sive of other necessary coinage the
Philadelphia Mint. 1t is thought, could
turn out about 81 100000 per month;
the San Francisco Mint the same
amount, and the New Orleans Mint
about $S00,000 per month. The San
francisco Mint, however, has only
about SIG ,000,0 900 in silver bullion on
hand, and the New Orleans only about
50, 800 900. SO that after the supply
now on hand at these mints had been
exhausted the remaining $50 900, 900
would have to be coined at the Phila-
delphia Mint alone. The whole time,
therefore, which woulds be necessary
to coin the seigniorage would be ap-
proximately about two years and two
months.

"In God We Trust"

WASHINGTON March 26.-Thousands
of petitions have come through the
mails within the past fortnight from
religious societies and others interested,
asking that favorable action be taken
upon the joint resolution now before
the house judiciary committee to insert
the name Of the Deity Ill the federal
constitution.
Some of the petitions are several
yards long, and all are numerously
signed. They come principally from
the states of Ohio and Pennsylvania.
They are addressed to the two houses
of congress. The committee have de-
cided that they will not give hearing
to persons who desire to oppose the
resolution, but it is generally under
stood that the resolution will be report
ed adversely, although it was at first
intended to take no action on it what
ever, but to permit it to slumber in the
committee.

The Pre- cher Racket.

NEWPORT, Ark, March 26.-The con-
gregation of Baptist Church at this
place, has just been made the victim of
a shrewd confidence man. About a
week ago an individual, who called
himself William Joues, and claimed to
be a relative in the first degree of Rev.
Sam Jones, appeared in the neighbor-
hood. Presenting his credentials to
the local Baptist preacher, he requested
permission to deliver a series of ser
mons.
He was smooth, glib Of tongue,
though not polished. His preaching
was catchy" The people for miles
around hocked to his services day and
night. His collections were liberal. In
fact he gathered the cash by the hat
full at each service. In addition to this
he borrowed money from every body
who would part with it. Finally when
decline and he could borrow no more.
he concluded to hunt other fields. He
disappeared Friday night and at the
same time the fine horse of the deacon
of the church was discovered to be
missing
The people are mp in arms and swear
vengeance if they capture the impost-
er. He has been traced to Oliphant
where he sold the horse aud is supposed
to have boarded train for Texas.

The 'UnemplOyed."

CANTON, O. March 26.-The approach
of the date when the Army of Peace of
J. s. Coxey, of Massillon, will begin
its march overland to Washington is
causing great uneasinesss in Stark
county, especially among the farming
community. The country is being
overrun with tramps, who have been
committing depredations of various
characters. They claim to be unem-
ployed, arriving here with the honor
able intention of joining Coxey's great
army of unemployed. Day by day the
number has increased. 1t is the gem
eral impression, unless the municipal
or county authorities interfere with the
mobilization, that serious, if not disas-
trous, results will follow. There is a
movement on foot here to have Mayor
Cassidy prevent the proposed march
through Canton.

The GULF RAILROAD,
OUR CITIZENS ANXIOUS THAT A SURVEY Be
MADE sY TIE WAY OF GREENFoSESy.
An Interesting and Enthusiastic Meeting Held in
Our Town On Last Monday Afternoon.

On last Monday morning DR.. J. L.
Sims of Denver called upon some Of our
business men and stated that he had
been in consultation with Col. Stedman.
the chief engineer of the Lake Super
iOr, Southwestern and Gulf Railroad,
and in his interview with tie Colonel
he had spoken to him of IL more prac-
tical route for this road 70 reach Har-
rison by leaving the survey that runs
north and east of Us at Oak Grove,
running south down the Allen branch
to the Joe Tanning farm, thence up
Iocum Greek to Green Forest, thence
to Dink Fry's, thence to W. s.
Pursley's, thence up Race Track hollow
to Steve Naples on the cid survey,
thence down to Long Greek and up Ter
rapin, on to the flats on the present
survey to Harrison.
The Doctor advised the people of
Green Forest to call meeting to ascer-
tain whether or not they We're in
terested enough in the matter to get in
communication with Col. Stedman and
show up to him the practibilitv of this
route which is conceded by all to be
over a much better lay of the country
and ten miles nearer Harrison than the
survey via Denver.
Accordingly meeting of the citizens
was called to assemble at i clock o. IL.
An enthusiastic meeting Of our busi-
ness men and citizens from the coun try
was the result.
W. a. Butt was elected chairman and
A. J. Russell secretary. The object of
the meeting was explained by w. c.
Russell. The secretary was instructed
to write Col. Stedman, the Chief En-
gineer, and call his attention to the
practibility of the Green Forest route;
and to ascertain what would be expect
ed of Green Forest in case they could
be induced to make such a survey.
There is no question but that this
road will be built from Springfield, Mo.
to Little Rock; in fact Mccarthy &Co.
of the latter place have already con-
tracted with the company 10 build l45
miles of the road north from that city,
also work will begin at Springfield in
this direction as soon as the surveying
is far enough slong, regardless of
whether or not the survey is complete
in the interior.
Now is the time for quick and con-
certed action upon the part of the citi-
zens of Green Forest, 10 be ready and
willing to do whatever they can in
bringing into notice the advantages OF
this route, and learn what can be Of
fered the company as regards right
Of way.
Another meeting will be called by
the chairman as soon as any word l5
received from the company relative
to the matte r.
