STRIP AWAY THE VERB1AGE

The STAR knows that large
majority of the honest Democrats
OF Attala county in their principles
stand for sound money and honest
government They call themselves
tree coinage men because they
have not had an opportunity to
study the issue, and consequently
they don't know "where they are
at. - We feel convinced that as
soon as they ascertain that their
common sense and their innate
principles are really on the side of
true blmetallism and opposed to
free coinage under present condi-
tons, that they will take their
stand on the right side. There has
been a misapplication of terms and
a misunderstanding of the issue
that has placed many a man in the
wrong camp.
In order to unite few knots in
this matter THE STAR will here
propose little catechism for each
man to ask himself and he will at
once see which side of the ques-
ton he is on.
1. Are you in favor Of the gold,
silver and paper money Of the con.
stltution?
If you are, follow US on to the
next question.
2. Are you in favor of all these
gold and silver and paper dollars

If free coinage at I6 to should
not double the value of the silver
dollar, we would 90 to a silver ba-
sis and six hundred millions of
gold would leave us. 1t would
take all the minis at their present
capacity fifteen years to coin that
many silver dollars to take its place.
In the meantime we would expert
ence all the evils Of tremendous
contraction of currency. On the
other hand, if free coinage does
double the silver dollar we would
IN rely double the wealth Of West
ern mine owners and still have to
give just as much produce and az
much labor for a dollar that would
be Just as dear as a gold dollar.

Nations deal with each other like
mIn With man. The same consid-
crations and laws of business affect
nations that affect individuals. We
have a stock law in Attala county.
In some localities at certain times
Of the year our farmers find it de-
Sirable to let their stock run at
large. They get each other to
agree to an arrangement of this
character. If all don't 90 into the
agreement, somebody is going to
take up some stock and somebody

iional agreement necessary to true
6lmetaIlism. Unless the leading

we will be afraid to turn loose our
best money because we know that
some nation will grab it up and
hold it for a premium.

you don't and YOU will knock the

TWO ADMISSIONS.

In his speech in Kosciusko last
Tuesday Hon. X. Nardaman, an
earnest free silver advocate, admit
ted his belief that if silver were re
monetized at a ratio of 10 to I by
the United States alone our gold
would leave the country or go into
hiding; but, he said, it would re-
turn after time, perhaps a year,
when confidence was restored, This
admission covers the very point
the opponents of free coinage have
been claiming all the time-that
free coinage would cause gold to
go out of circulation. This means
that there would be sudden loss
of one third of our cir
culating medium, producing a con-
traction of the currency and con-
sequent drop in prices that would
involve all classes in disaster Mr..
Vardaman says it would last only a
year. We say it would take
many years for a country to recov-
er from a disastrous panic. But sup
pose it did last only year. That
would be long enough for the farm
er to get two cents pound for his
cotton, two-bitS a bushel for his
fifteen cents for his corn.
1t would be long enough for every
mortgage to be foreclosed and ev-
cry merchant bankrupted- just
long enough to ruin all the people.
Now, Mr.. McLaurin, in his
speech on the same occasion, said
that he would not coin silver at 81
to I (Which is it's commercial ratio
to gold because that ratio might
not be maintained. Now, we sub
nit to all candid men that Mr.. Nc
Laurin has given his cause away.
If the parity cannot be maintained
when gold and silver are coined at
their commercial ratio Tefferson
and Hamilton contended that the
parity could be preserved only BY |
hitting the commercial ratio exact
ly-how utterly impracticable it is
to say that the two metals can be
kept on an equality when the COM
ratio is entirely disregarded.
If 90 to is not a stable ratio, IS
to I certainly can not be.
These two admissions Of Narda-
man and McLaurin deserve to be
placed side by side. McLaurin
says 50 to I won't do and Varda
man says 10 to I wont do until we
have passed through a year of
panic and destruction. There we
are. The humble citizen who
doesn't understand these matters
is hung by both ends of the rope.
Free coinage wont do, and our
people are beginning to see 1t.
The Kosciusko star. (Kosciusko, Miss.) 18??-1898, 1895-06-28

All trce coinage countries are on
a silver basis and have very little
money except silver. During the
last twenty years they have seen
the purchasing power of their mon
ey go down ten, fifteen, twenty
tive, fifty per cent. If they hoard
ed it, It's value went down. If they
loaned it, they received back less
value tAaa they put out. Debts
that they contracted twenty years
ago when their money was as good
as gold now require double the
amount borrowed to be liquidated.
Their dollars are worth fifty cents.
Bat the United States, without
free coinage has coined more sill
yer than all the free coinage coun-
tries pat together and keeps her
silver dollars equal to gold dollars
the world over. Suppose our gold
has appreciated? Our silver has
been kept right alongside it. By
40 possibility could this have been
the ease under free coinage at IS
to /.
The Kosciusko star. (Kosciusko, Miss.) 18??-1898, 1895-06-28

We rise to ask for information.
Has Senator George anywhere at
any time declared himself in favor
of the I6 to I ratio since silver has
sunk SO low in price? We know he
is free silver man; but is he tied
to a ruinous ratio? If he is we
have never heard him say it nor
have we seen where he has written

PRINTERS INK CAMPAIGN,

The free coinage campaign is to be
fought out with printers ink. Already
it has given Chicago two new dailies ard
big money has been recently put into
newspaper plants by the silver wings in
New York, Indianapolis and Alabama,
while flood of literature is coming from
both sides of the controversy. The bank
ing associations are printing thousands
of pamphlets in their endeavor to head
off the sentiment that Coins Financial
School has aroused among the people.
Among the publications on the subject
now being widely circulated by the friends
and foes of free coinage ore "Up to
Date" a continuation of Harvey's coin
book. Mr.. Hovace White has answered
"Coin" in "Coin's Financial Fool" Mr..
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1895-05-13

Edward Wisner, of Louisiana, is the au-
thor of "Cash VS.. Coin" another answer
to Harvey's book. The editor of the
Bankers Magazine has also replied to
"Con" at some length, and adds in the
same pamphlet paper by Mr.. Stevens,
editor of Bradstreet's, on wheat crops
and the cause of low prices, and another
by Mr.. Hubbard, the cotton expert, on
the cotton situation, with reference to
low prices. So it is to be a campaign OF
education sure enough.

WITHIN a week, the Missouri, Kansas &
Texas railroad has ordered 1000 new
freight cars, 10000 tons of new steel rails
and twenty-seven locomotives. Within
the same period $780, 900 worth of con-
tracts for rolling stock have been let in
st. Louis. The outlook for revival, not
only in business, but in railroad build
ing, was never better at this season of
the year than at present.-Las Vegas
Optic.
No surer sign of general and genuine
revival OF business could be cited than
the foregoing. Nothing of the kind
could have been truthfully printed during
the life of the Mckinley high protective
tariff law. It remained for business tc
pick up after the modified Wilson tariff
law became affective. All that is nov
needed to produce phenomenal and en-
during business boom is the restoration
of silver to its Legitimate place as ,
money metal.

In the light of the facts as revealed by
"Coin," Harvey and later by Mr.. Bland,
Jndge Vincent's decision of that now
famous Chicago controversy will hardly
stand. The proposition boiled down was
this: "Sigmund Zeisler states that under
the statutes of 1892 both gold and silver
were made units of value in the United
States. John p. Hopkins denies the
proposition" Judge Vincent decided in
the affirmative, but history, law and the
official records show him to he wrong.
