The Hopeful Prospect and
the Real Danger.

The rapid crystallization of pub
tic sentiment in favor of the full
re- enfranchisement of silver is re-
markable. Prominent public men
who have occupied neutral posi-
tion hitherto are arraying them
selves OIL the side of silver. The
masses of the people who have
hitherto been Indifferent or who
have regarded the money questions
as too abstruse for their compre-
hension are beginning to under
stand the situation. s'Silver mani
acs" are multiplying, the ''craze
seems to be contagious. "Coin's
financial school" is crowded with
anxious inquirers Those who
matriculate are first instructed In
the alphabet Of finance and soon
? &
are enabled to become teachers.
They go out ilto the highways and
make converts by the hundred.
Clubs are forming i'll almost every
neighborhood. The country news
papers are discussing the subject
Occasionally a great metropolitan
journal, like the Cincinnati En-
quirer, which has wide circulation
among all classes, devotes its COL
umns to the evangelization of un-
bslievers. The gold worshippers
are subsidizing influential Journals,
and proposing to send out great
army of hired missionaries and
food the country with literature to
stem the tide of public opinion.
As we have nothing to fear from
error while the truth is left free to
combat it, and as the truth is on
the side of silver, it will hasten it's
day of triumph to have gold wor-
shippers show their hands. They
will find it no longer profitable to
call the advocates Of silver fools
and lunatics. They must meet the
issue squartly.
There is nothing to fear from
any arguments they may offer or
any literature they may distribute.
The converts to silver will continue
to multiply. When once soundly
converted there may be no fear of
backsliding, no returning "like the
dog to his vomit" or "the SOW that
was washed to her wailowing in
the mire."S The doctrine of the
final perseverance of the saints"
will have a fit ill1stration. The
threatening danger is schism-
a breach of unity among those Of
the same faith. If the gold party
can succeed in dividing the silver
forces by getting soma to join the
Populist church, and thus thin the
ranks of the faithful, it may again
triumph. This is the danger, the
only thing to be feared. Take heed
and don't forget that "to be fore
warned is to be forearmed. The
