had removed their restrictions
against our meat products. Great
enterprises were being carried for
ward in our own country. The
song of the birds was answered by
the hum of machin-ry and the glad
shouts of the laborers children.
All this must be changed. 1t
was republican act. What busi-
ness had republicans to give happi-
ness and prosperity to the country.
The Wilson bill was brought out
and, between the two, amid the
warbling of the cookoos, they cast
lots, taking care that the lot should
fall upon the Infamous Mckinley
atrocity. Again the high priest
was called into requlsition. Again
the band played and the goat
bounded away, carrying with him
the last hope of American indus
try. The only result has been that
the cloud of adversely has thicken-
ed. The dreaded phantom has be-
come reality.
The third scape goat. which is
now under manipulation, is the
currency. The republicans gave
us the best currency.we have ever
had. Every coin, gold or silver /;
every bond or treasury note, or
certificate; every greenback or
bank note-all were interchange
able. Every dollar was OF precise
ly the same value and no choice
was made between them, except as
regarded convenience in transpor-
tation. No one thought of ques,
tioning the equal value of all dol
lars, of whatever character or de-
nomination, which were issued by
the government. In the process
of wiping out the last vestigs of
republican legislation, of course the
currency must go. 1t matters not
of what benefit it has been and
might continue to be.
The gold reserve is being con-
stantly and rapidly diminished.
The party now in power has never
yet squarely faced an issue and
never will. They are prolific in
reasons why the gold reserve can
not be maintained, but those rea-
sons are all evasive ones. The sim
pie facts are these. People have
lost confidence in the democratic
party and democratic methods.
They are taking their greenbacks
IN vast numbers to the national
treasury and demanding gold in
exchange. 1t is run on the bank.
Nothing more or less. It is pre-
clsely what happens to a private
bank when it loses the confidence
of its depositors.
1t remains to be seen whether
the third scape goat will be effect
ual. Time will show whether we
will get relief when our currency
shall be destroyed and the wild cat
shall be crowned lord of all.

When Grover Cleveland was
elected to guide the ship of state
and it became apparent that he
would 60 into office with the sup
port OF both houses of congress, a
panic of uncertainty seized the peo-
pie. Every man who had a spare
dollar cached it away for an hour of
need. No one knew to what extent
the reconstruction of our economic
policy would be carried. None
could tell how heavy would be the
blow our industries would receive.
Business was prostrated. Our fur
mace fires went out. The wheels of
manufacture were idle. The coun-
try, like trembling criminal upon
the block, was awaiting the stroke
of the executioner. -
1t became necessary to do some
thing to throw the blame, for the
state of affairs, upon the republi-
can party. 1t would never do to
face the music and acknowledge
that they were respor sible for the
destitution they had brought upon
the nation. Somebody else must
bear their SINS. In this extremity
they bethought themselves of the
scape goat. They would put their
sins upon the unoffeuding animal,
turn him loose in the wilderness,
and perhaps the people would be
deceived.
The first scape goat was the
Sherman act. We we're told that
the Infamous silver act was respon-
sible for all the ills with which the
country was afflicted. 1t was the
vampire that was-sucking the blood
from the arteries of business. 1t
was the moth that was eating the
garments; the blight that was de-
stroying the vegetable; the scale
that was running the fruit. If that
odious republican law was only re-
pealed, good times would rush up
on US with overwhelming force. A
special session of congress was con
vened and the poor scape goat was
brought forth. The hands of the
! officiating priest were laid upon it,
the door of the White House opened
and the goat sent out to wander in
the wilderness.
1t is unnecessary to recall the
fact that the experiment was fail
ure. There was something wrong
about the sanctity or cleanliness of
the officiating priest. The goat
failed to bear away the sins of the
people. Times became harder than
before.
The second scape goat was the
Mckinley bill. Under the benefi-
cient action of that law the country
had prospered as it had never done
before-or since. During the last
year of Harrison's administration
over 50, 900, 900, 900 were paid out
to laboring men. The m uch abused
tin plate industry had grown to
such proportions that one third OF
our consumption was of American
manufacture. The production OF
sugar was rapidly increasing and
bid fair to be, in very short time,
equal to the demand. Under the
reciprocity clause our trade with
foreign countries was increasing:
Our exports were greater than
