Silver.

Heretofore, the NoRTHERNER has
had little To say On the matter OF silver
coinage, although II has recognized n
healthy and growing public sentiment
favoring II return To the use OF the
white metal as part of the basis of
our currency system. But this senti-
ment has been played upon TO the full
est extent 10y dcmagogues and fanatics
to draw votes from the republican
ticket-and all roads from the republi-
can party lead eventually into the
democratic camp. AS soon as the spring
elections are over, we will have some
thing to say concerning this matter.
The republican party will meet and
solve the silver question as IL has solved
every other great question during its his
tory, and the resolution adopted by the
republican caucus last Saturday will
show to any wavering republican voter
the folly of going outside of his own
party TO secure wise silver legislation.
Meanwhile, until the fogs of fanatical
agitation and visionary schemes have
cleared away, il will be well to remem-
Der that no official 10 he elected on
Monday next will have any more TO do
with the solution of the currency pro-
blem than he will with the campaign
in China. The election now is a matter
of good administration Of justice on the
supreme bench, of the welfare of our
university, of good local government
and last but not least of the mainte-
nance of party supremacy so as to pre-
sent solid, unbroken front to the
enemy in the future.
Democrat silver clubs have been or
ganized all over the state, and in un-
guarded moments some of the leading
democratic papers have urged the
formation of such clubs as IL refuge for
disgruntled republicans. Yet history
does not show the democrats to have
been the especial friends of silver.
They have controlled both houses OF
the present congress and have not even
attempted the enactment OF silver egis-
lation. Both parties voted together in
the decentralization mistake of '73. IL
is possible both will vote together for a
restoration of silver in '96; we hope such
will prove To be the fact. But the
Gold Bug Cleveland and Rothschild
Syndicate Carlisle controlling national
finances, no intelligent voter will be
led to vote the democrat ticket this
spring by the buncombe silver plank of
the Michigan democrats, who, being
hopelessly in the minority and seeing
the silver sentiment, grabbed at the only
possible straw they could see to save
them from drowning in the sea of poll
teal oblivion; had the wind blown that
way they would have grabbed "A golden
straw just as eagerly.
Republicans, vote your ticket; every
man from j b. Moore to your candidates
for constable. Don't let the democrats
fool you.
