be of greater value to them than ever,
but they do not, and what the labor
er may save by cheaper clothes and
food is more than offset by increased
rent alone. When all things are con-
sidered, the relative value of the dol
lar is no greater now than in 1865.
One trouble that labor will now rec
ognize in the United States is that on
account Of the depressed condition Of
affairs the laborers are not working
full time. The unions have succeed
ed in holding up the price per diem,
but the men are not working, say
more than one-half the time, and are
making that much less in dollars that
they were receiving"
Speaking of the tenancy Mr.. Har-
vey said: Twenty million acres Of
land in the United States today is
owned by English titled nobility, and
the English land tenancy has to that
extent been introduced into this cOun-
try. In the state of Illinois there is a
county by the name Of Logan that has
a county seat by the name OF Lincoln
and you can drive for miles through
that county to the county seat and
have On both sides of you one of Lord
Scully's farms, with Irish thatched
cottages over the lands" applause
Mr.. Horr: II have travelled extern
sively, through thirty-one states Of
this Union, and l never yet saw a
single farm nor had my attention
called to one that was owned by peo-
pie living outside Of the United
States. There are some, but they are
few"
Mr.. Harvey said: 1.-The proposition
is made by the gold standard men
that all of our efforts for the restora-
ton OF silver is for the interest of sill
yer bullion owners. 1t is not true.
In our struggle to restore certain
volume Of primary money in this
country we have turned our attention
to silver to reach the wrong that was
committed and to restore to the peo-
that which was the peoples money,
irrespective of who owned the proper
ty. We do not object to gold because
the gold miners produce it and the
argument that the gentleman makes

about silver producers could be made
with the same force about the gold
producers. But want TO make
another answer to it. | want
to say to you that the silver producers
have not assisted in the running of
this campaign. (Applause,) If they
were assisting anyone it is reasonable
to suppose they had assisted me. l

menced bringing out books inaDecem-
Der, 1893. | became chairman OF the

pealed personally and by letter to
about all the silver miners in the west
to assist us. We did not receive a

four letters to selected names Of as
many prominent mine owners who
were supposed to be wealtby-such
men as MOffat of Colorado and Clark
of MOntana-and did not receive a
cent from them, not even enough to
pay the postage on the letters, not
even the courtesy of a reply except
from one. At the time | bought out
Coins Financial School, was 10 debt
and had no money left"
In closing the debate for the day
Mr.. Harvey handed Mr.. Horn as a
souvenir a silver dollar OF 1899, with
the word "Unit" upon it. Mr.. Har-
vey said: Take it, Mr.. Horr, Wash
ingtOn may have carried it in his
pocket; Jefferson may az one time.

have paid for the paper on which the
declaration OF war was written 10 1872
against Great Britain. 1t may have
been fOndled by Jackson when writ
ing his message to congress against
the national banks. (Applause.) 1t
is fit souvenir for any American,
proud Of his country and It's institu-
tions, to carry in his pocket all the
days of his life. Passing the dollar
to Mr., Horr.) Applause. Shouts Of
"hurrah," and continued applause.)
Mr.. HOrr, smiling: 81 shall keep
this dollar and put it toagood use.
/ intend to have hole bored through
it and then will hang it around the
neck of my little grandchild, born
just as we com menced this discussion.
Applause 1t will do Brother Har-
vey to learn that the good people Of
the United States are still, In spite
Of the gold standard marrying and
giving in marriage and that children
are still born to US in spite Of the sill
yer dollar" Laughter and applause.l

that the average yearly accumulation
of the agricultural workers per capita
of the United States was in the de-
cade 1860 to 1870, $3.50 each.
Mr.. harvey: "Will you pardon
me?"
Mr.. HOrr: Don't bother me. For
the decade, 1870 to 1880, sl7.10 per
capita and for the decade 1880 to 1890,
$3.50 per capita. Here is an ability
on the part Of the farmer of the coun-
try to save in the last census decade
nearly three times as great as in the
decade before The silver legislation of
1873"
Mr.. Harvey: "Did not you have
that written before you left New
York;" (Applause.)
HE says that we have increased in
wealth. Nobody disputes that. The
United States has not only been a
a work shop in producing wealth but
it has been a sweat shop. Applause. J
1t has been producing wealth, but
have the men who produce that
wealth got the wealth?
THE rich men are controlling the
legislation of America and the old
world and there is no plan by which
European civilization can rise from
under it, and when we have passed
four or eight years further along
there will be no way for Us to rise
from under it. We are making in
the United States today the last
stand of free men in the civilization
of the world" (Applause.)

The Ritchie Gazette is doing plain,
and, we trust, wholesome talking
about the bad conduct carried on in
the, town of Harrisvilc, and no doubt
the reproofs are just Ordinarily such
literature - most unwclcome to the
readers aud often is done at heavy
cost to the paper shat darcs to do its
duty. 1t often takes Il deal more
courage to point out the faults of a
community than one not inflated
thinks. People come to think papers
are only intended TO pat them on the
back, hide their faults and boom the
county. But it sometimes becomes
necessary to turn on the hose, and we
commend the boldness that does ii
when duty demands it.

Immigration fell of during the hard
times to nearly one halfof what it
had been, because Of the difficulty of
finding work; and fewer laborers we're
imported in violation of the law.
During the past two months, howev.
er, immigration has steadily increas-
ed, and with the return of good times
1t will soon be as large rs ever unless
something is done before it is forever
too late. 1t is not safe to delay much
longer. All laws thus far enacted do
not much more than play with the
question, and enable the average Con
gresham to say that something has
been done. The hest way to restrict
immigration is to restrict il; and one
hundred thousand ought to be the
maximum number permitted to land
in single-year This is as many as
we can Americanize; and we want mo
immigrants who can not be Ameri-
eaniled. The immigrant question has
for some time been the most impor-
lant one before the country. The
most practical restriction would he to
limit the number of storage passen-
gers which any ship may bring to the
United States, in some proportion to
its size. The cost ofcnrrying immi-
grants would then be greater, as they
would have more decent accommodate
ton on the voyage, and better class
would come. One difficulty with our
immigration is thatall European gov
crnments strive to keep the men who
can serve as soldiers at home, and
connive at the shipping of criminals
ana paupers to the United States. --
