CUBE FOR AMERICAN EVILS.

Senator Cullom has been visiting the
principal mines OF Lsadville and thinks
the people Of that section are all pretty
radical and aggressive. He suggests that
. middle course be taken which will per-
nit silver to be used to a large extent in
our currency. He says the international
agreement plan is the right thing to set
tie the question, but that ii will take
many years to work out the matter. He
considers the silver agitation to be the
only serious menace to the general re-
vival Of business throughout the coun-
try.
Senator Cullom poses as . friend OF sill
yer, but would wait for international BIZ
metallism to cure our financial evils and
commercial torpidity. He is perfect in
the ethics Of monometallism and sounds
the slogan Of the gold bug class who
would weave our American financial
policy In IN European warp and welt.
Senator Cullom's opinions may suit the
plutocratio East, bat will not receive in
dorsement in the South or West. But
the South and West have, under the
Constitution and laws Of our country.
equal rights with the East, and II the
silver agitation is the only "serious
menace to the general revival OF bust
ness" that is . very good reason why ii
should be continued; for ii appears abso-
lutely certain that, to block the wheels
Of trade and m 10 the only plan
that will bring the great money bags
Of the country TO . realization that .
true American policy 10 needed and will
be fully required and demanded by the
American people for the cure OF all
American evils.

One day last week an internal machine

Baron Alphonse de Rothschild. in Paris;

for the destruction Of the great banker,

Silver AND DEMOCRACY.

The forecast made by Senator Jones oil
Arkansas as TO silver in national politics
we believe will prove TO be correct. de
predicts that the Democratic party VIII
declare for the free coinage Of silver in
dependent Of European action, and the
Republican party for that kind OF BIZ
mesallism which depends upon the inter
national agreement. That opinion re-
quires no prophetic gift to form 10.
The tendency among the Democrats is in
favor Of free silver ss the financial policy
Of the United States. no matter what
other nations may see ct to do. The so
called "sound money" Democrats will
be found in the minority by the time the
national convention assemblies. We look
for . genuine silver candidate for the
presidency. and an unequivocsl declars-
ton for the complete restoration Of sill.
YER in the Democratic platform. On the
other hand, the Republican party is so
largely composed Of gold men and OF that
kind Of professed bime.allisss that sdvo-
cate an "enlsrged use Of silver" which
means merely an increased circulation OF
subsidiary coins. that it's genuine silver
supporters will be found in . hopeless
minority. A compromise will be the
best that they can expect to effect.
In the vigorous and honest advocacy
of silver and gold coinage, without
Determination against either metal or
charge for mintage, and at the ratio OF l6
to l, independent Of sl foreign action,
will be the chief strength and hope for
victory Of the Democratic party in the
important political campaign Of 1896

commenting on the demand for increased

Senator Vest Of Missouri has written
. very interesting letter to the st Louis
Republican, from which we reproduce
the following:
Austria, where / now find myself,
has the gulden as the unit of value, .
silver coin worth about 40 cents in our
money, and has two hundred millions OF
dollars in silver. During the 40 years
prior to 1850, the currency was ire.
deemable paper. but in that year the use
Of silver was begun, and the small notes,
under five gulden have been retired.
Austria has not entered into the scram-
BILE for gold, and is ACCOMPLISHING that
metal in order to reach the gold stan
dard. About this the masses have not
been consulted and know nothing. The
nobility and bankers, OF course, favor
gold, for it increases their incomes, and
Is the Government is run in the inter.
est of the privileged classes you have
over here, as in the United States.
from every banker the howl for what
they call "sound money" Under q
Government based upon the idea that
the majority Of the people are born
"bridled and saddled," as Mr.. Jeffer-
son said, "for the other men to ride
them" this is entirely logical.

Nebraska is going to make up this
year for some, if not all. Of the loss she
sustained through crop damages last
year. Her crops have turned out well
SO far and particularly in the districts
that suffered most last Fall. Wheat,
oats and alfalfa have more than come up
to expectations. and the corn crop will
be one of the largest in the history OF
the State" So says the ST. Louis Re-
public.
When Nebraska will have harvested
her crops she may retrieve her losses to
some extent by feeding considerable
grain to stock, but il the farmers will
depend on the receipts to be gathered in
from marketing their cereals they will
not get rich. even though their crops ex-
coed present expectations.

The San Francisco Bulletin says that
silver men elected to either national con.
ventions with an avowsd intention
to bolt if they failed to carry the
convention would exercise less in
fuence in the convention than il free to
act as might seem to them best alter the
adoption Of 9 platform.
We do not agree with the Bulletin.
The records Of both Of the old parties
show that neither of them have
been entirely sincere on the silver ques.
tion in the past, and the only way to
bind them to keep faith with the people
lie to demand a plank for the free and
unlimited coinage Of silver at the ratio
Of l6 to l or promptly bolt their con
vention.

AN AnERroAN POLICY FOR ne
LIEF.

The London, Eng. Times, Berlin cor
respondent says: The supporters Of the
gold currency are iubilant at the state
ment made by Hon. A. j. Bslfour. hrst
Lord Of the Treasury, in the House Of
Commons. TO the effect that the English
Government will take no steps looking
to an international bimetallic conference.
"The National Zeitung." the corre-
spondsnt adds, "ssys that be has burst
the soap bubble which the German BIZ
metsllists blew from the votes in the
Reichstag aud the Prussisn Diet. I'm.
doubtedly Mr.. Bslfour's statements will
put an end to the deliberations OF the
Federal Government on the question.
Only noisy sgitssors believe that action
is possible withou. Englsnd's co-opera-
tion."
The foregoing is taken from the Euro
pean Press dispatches and gives addi-
tional assurance that we have nothing to
hope for from Europe to help US out OF
our financial distress and that nothing
but a strsighsout American policy will
relieve us. II Mr.. Cleveland is as honest
as Administration Democrats would
make us believe, be will not lose the OPP
portunity TO bring the matter before

next, and recommend the passage OF Q
bill for the free and unlimited coinage OF
silver at q l6 to | ratio, for it has now

Of Mr.. Gladstone, the ex-British Pre-
mier, to take care OF our own finances.
