The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-11-10

The following questions have been
asked The Herald with the request
that the answers be published:
Are treasury notes, other than silver
certificates, payable in gold or can they
be paid in either gold or silver at op-
ton Of secretary of treasury?
For what purpose is the gold reserve
maintained in the treasury?
Treasury notes under the laws of
Congress regulating coinage and cur
rency are redeemable lin coin" The
Sherman act of 1890 provides:
That upon demand of the holder of
any of the Treasury notes herein pro-
Vided for the Secretary Of the Treas
ury shall, under such regulations as he
may prescribe, redeem such notes in
gold or silver, at his discretion, it be-
ing the established policy of the United
States to maintain the two metals on
a parity with each other upon the pres
ent legal ratio, or such ratio as may be
provided by law"
The policy of the government under
Republican administration was to pay
the holder of Treasury notes in either
gold or silver at his demand. This has
been followed by the present admins
tration. The argument adduced in its
favor is that if any discrimination is
made by the Treasury department, by
which silver is forced upon the holder
of a Treasury note when he demands
gold, that will destroy the parity of the
two metals and gold coin would go to
premium or silver coin and legal ten
der notes would be deprecated.
In January, 1891, the committee on
coinage, weights and measures of the
United States House Of Representatives
met and heard from Mr.. E. O. Leech,
the Director of the Mint in reference to
the coinage question. His examina-
ton was very elaborate. On the mat
ter of the parity and its maintenance
he showed that it was kept up in the
manner we have explained. In answer
to a question on this point he replied:
Just as long as the Government was
able to keep it at par by not discrim-
mating in payments between gold and
silver they Isilver and legal tender
notes1 would remain at par with gold,
but the moment the Government did
discriminate and refuse to pay gold dol
lars on demand for legal tender notes,
l think they would cease to circulate
at their face value concurrently with
gold"
Pressed further on this matter, Mr..
Leech answered.:
1T think there would be a discrinlin-
alton if the Government should refuse
to redeem a legal tender note on de-
mand in gold. l think it would be an
evidence of weakness. I think it would
injure its credit"
The 100000, 900 gold reserve held in
the Treasury is required by law as a
guaranty Of the redempIion of the legal
tender notes. While that amount is on
hand it is security for the redemp-
ton of those notes in gold, on demand,

LET HIM CONFESS!

Robert Ingersoll, the celebrated
Know Nothing" in religion, once
made an expression which at this
juncture comes into new prominence.
We do not thus name the eloquent
gentleman out of any disrespect, but
to avoid calling him an inf1del or by
any other name that would be uncom-
pImentary and unfair. AS we under
stand it, he takes the don't know
position as to Deity and the here
after, rather than the standpoint of
positive denial of their existence.
He once said he would believe in a
hell when Kentucky went Republican.
According to the returns from that
state, Kentucky has actually gone
Republican, and as Robert prides him
self on being a man of his word he
will have to fall into line on the hell
question.
1t does not matter what was the
cause of the defeat of Hardin and the
prospective defeat of Blackburn, the
fact remains, and the consequence
ought to follow. On what process of
reasoning the detection of a Demo-
cratic state proves the existence of the
abode of the condemned, we do not
preceive at present. No doubt some
of the defeated in Kentucky may feel
a few of the pangs of the doomed
but the distinguished agnostic did not
refer to their condition. Now let the
gentleman formulate his new confess
sion of faith

WHERE DOES Mk1NLEY STAND.

That Major Mckinley is a favorite
in Ohio no one will deny, nor will any
one deny that his friends will claim
the great Republican majority in his
state last Tuesday as an endorsement
of him and his tariff policy. Whether
this is SO or not will make little diff
ference with them in pushing his
claims for recognition as the party's
nominee for President. This recogni-
ton will depend entirely upon what
view the country takes of Mckinley
ism. If there is a strong unmistak-
able demand for it's restoration, then
Major Mckinley would be what is
termed the logical candidate" Even
in that case there are evidences that
his claims on the party as the author
and chief promoter of the tariff bill
that bears his name will not be al
lowed to pass unchallenged. If there
is any capital to be made cut of that
measure, the getting of it up and the
enacting of it into a law, friends of
the Man from Maine propose to claim
the credit for him, for at a banquet
given Senator William P. Frye, at
Portland, Me-, by the Portland club
of that city last Monday night, the
Senator said:
We shall give you tariff system on
the line of the Mckinley bill And
right here let me say that Mckinley
had but little to do with the framing
of this bill, as Congressman Dingley
had the making of it and Tom Reed
made the bill a law.
That is clear challenge as to whom
belongs the credit for that discredit-
able bill. Surely this is nothing but a
plain attempt to steal McKinley's
thunder. and it is doubtful if it can
be made to succeed. That is one side
OF the picture. now for the other.
"A few days ago it was announced
through the press generally that Pres
ident Harrison had had little to do
with the Mckinley bill, the announce
ment conveying the impression that
he would be rather glad to have his
name ASSOCIATED with the measure.
Had General Harrison been of the
opinion that McKinleyism would be
popular as a campaign cry next year.
this announcement would hardly have
been made.
In all this Major McKinleys posi-
ton seems to be this: If there is
credit to be had, he must not have
it; if blame is to be had, he must take
it. 1t at least MAKES him a central
figure.

THE STATEHOOD PROCLAMATION,

Quite frequently the question, Will
the President issue the statehood
proclamation? is asked. 1t seems al
most foolish to ask it. Why should
he not? Every requirement of the en-
aiding act has been complied with,
and by az overwhelming majority the
people have voted for the constitution
and statehood. No doubt the admin
istration was hopeful, and anticipated,
that Utah would come in as a Demo-
cratic state. The hope and the an
ticipation have not been realized, and
it is because of this that people ask
whether the President will issue his
proclamation. We certainly expect he
will as Mr. Cleveland is not man
cause it may not be the pleasantest
in the world. The superstition is pre-
posterous that he will not issue it.
Ii it should not be issued it would be
a great injustice to the people of Utah,
for they united, irrespective of politics,
titled to it. They also have the right
to choose what officers they want. whe-
Their they be Democrats, Republicans,
or Populists, for their rights do not
rest upon their politics and to make
their politics the guage of their rights
would be nothing but tyranny.
If the people of Utah never have
any more cause for worrying than the
question whether Mr.. Cleveland will
issue the statehood proclamation. how
free from worrying they will always
be! That he will issue it no one need
doubt.

delivered by the editor, julius T. Tay-
lor, on the 1st inst. He is colored
man of great ability. His paper is
conducted with rare talent, and the
address is full of the fire of oratory
and the force of historic facts. The
purport of it is to show that there is
a New Democracy" in the adhesion
of negroes in large numbers to the
good old Democratic party, and to
prove to the colored race that in thet
party they will find their best and
truest friends.
He traces the history of the slave
trade from it's inception in this coun-
try down to the abolition Of slavery,
| and makes the strong point that the
northern people were engaged in the
inhuman traffic. and only transferred
their living chattels by sale to the
South. when they found that the
Northern climate and conditions were
not suited to negro labor.
He makes the point that Thomas
Jefferson the father of Democracy,
was the man who introduced the reso-
slave trade. but was met with oppo-
sitiorl from New York and New Eng
land on account of the great profit re-
sulting to those states by its continu-
apce." He also quotes from the Ian
guage of Lincoln, to show that the
distinguished statesman was opposed
in 1858 to the enfranchisement of the
negro. and the living of the two races
together on terms Of social and po-
litical equality.
The treatment of the colored race by
the North and by the South since the
war is made the subject of fine con-
trast between the two political par
ties, by no means creditable to Re
publican policy. The colored race are
urged to examine into the facts, dis
abuse their minds of the prejudlces
planted against the Democracy by Re
publicans for party ends, and to JON
the. "New Democracy for the cause
of liberty and justice.
We commend this number of the
Broad AK to the general public as
worthy of perusal by people Of all
races and opinions. 1t will tend to
remove many absurd and deeprooted
prejudices, which have taken hold of
the public mind on the negro question
and it's relation to the Democratic
party. Much transformation has been
circulater by the hypocritical party of
expediency and special privileges, on
this question, and the light thrown on
it by a colored gentleman will do
much toward making the matter clear
to the public mind.

THE SILVER PARTY.

1t is matter of little consequence
how the silver party was organized. Its
principles are right and if other states
would follow the example of Nevada,
short time. What is the use of men
who claim to- be for free coinage vot-
ing for parties whose records show that
they are opposed to it? If people are sim
cerely in favor of the renlonetization of
silver, why not have the courage of
their convictions and support men for
president and congress who are pledged
to free coinage State Journal.

DISTINCT DEMOCRATIC GAINS.

These are the distinct Democratic
gains in Tuesdays elections. The first
step towards the restoration of party
vigor is to lop off the alien and unwhole-
some excrescences that have fastened
themselves upon it's organism. Without
German, Maryland is still a Democratic
state. Without Brice the Democrats
have still nearly even chance of carry
ing Ohio. However plutocrats may label
themselves, their affiliations are neces-
sarily with Republicanism and when
they get into Office as Democrats their
value to Republication is doubled. They
are enemies in camp and are certain
when the issue is finally Joined to be-
tray their guided constituents.-St. Louis

A TEXAS PAPER ON TEXAS CRIME

I'm the midst of war, the laws are ST.
lent" and so in the midst of rapes,
such as happened at Paris and Tyler.
And fer the same reason, the ordinary
machinery of the law and the usual
methods of it's administration are utterly
inadequate and the lesson to be taught
and impression made, are lost by de-
nay. Communities 50 highly moral and
intelligent as in Texas, can be safely
trusted to Judge and act upon such oc-
casiono, without the least danger of
lapse into anarchy or loss of respect for
ana obedience to law, in all ordinary
cases and circumstances. There are some
communities in the northern states
where, judging from the newspaper ex-
pressions, the people are not sufficiently
moral and intelligent to be so trusted,
and they, of course, are not qualified to
judge their superiors.-Houston Post.
