Is IL Really True?

How much did Grover Cleveland
make in the last bond deal?" is a ques-
ton being openly asked all around the
country, and with an emphasis that
will admit of no doubt in the minds OF
those asking the question as to their
belief that the president of the United
States actually shared in the profits
Of the syndicate who took the bonds
and in a few days resold them again
at gain Of over eighty millions Of
dollars. Whether Grover Cleveland
had any share in this deal or not may
never be known, but the circumstances
attending the negotiations Of the sale,
the secrecy attending it, the parties at
interest, and the fact that the small
premium obtained is less than munich
pal bonds often command, together with
their immediate sale at very much
higher premium, can have no other
effect than to leave the suspicion in
the minds of many people that even
Grover Cleveland was unable to resist
temptation.
1t is not enough to say that partisan
ism or political prejudice prompts this
suspicion. The president of the United
States should be above suspicion, but
Grover Cleyeland-unfortunately-is
not. The characteristics of the man
are against him. Dame Rumor has
busted herself more about this mans
private character, his social life, his
habits and inner life, than any man
that has ever filled the presidential
chair, and if one-half the stories afoat
told sub rosa-are true, then is he
fully capable of sharing in the profits
of tat bond deal.

things; but if you do we are going to
cut loose from you. You may go ahead,
but you will never trick US again.
Do not charge me with being radical
or fanatic,or with INDUCING threats.
l speak the sentiment Of the masses
l would not say it if it were not true.
You propose to remit us to the demon
etizing act of 1873, which in all my
section of the country the democratic
party on every stump has denounced
as the monumental fraud of the nine
teenth century Here is a democratic
house proposing to 60 right back to
that act. When you do so you will be
guilty Of greater fraud than that act
itself. l speak advisedly when l say
that if the democratic party, after all
the pledges it has made in regard to
silver in its platforms, national and
state, should take the country back to
its condition under the act of 1873, you
will have consummated the monumen-
tai fraud of the nineteenth century,
because we never expected much from
Mr.. Sherman or his party; they never
made many promises, as we have"
Now these two men, and others Of
their gid, are issuing maDifestos and
making speeches to prevent the peo-
pie from doing what they threatened
to do themselves and bad not the cour-
age to do. In the language OF Mr..
Bryan, What faith can be placed in
platforms if their pledges can be vio-
lated with impunity."
Why should the democratic party
be trusted again? Suppose there are
enough delegates in the convention to
force the adoption Of a free silver
plank in the platform? What better
guarantee have we got that they will
carry out the pledges they make than
we had the pledges made in 1892?
Messrs. Bland and Bryan are a pair Of
political blatherskites, condemned by
the words of their own mouths, and
they should not be trusted any fur
Their. They are no more honorable
than the party they represent. They
are demagogues of a dangerous kind
their avowed object is to lead honest
voters into another trap.

Silver and Gold.

From 1893 to 1920 an ounce OF gold
was equal in value to 1873 ounces Of
silver. From 1921 to 1914 silver held
its highest value since the discovery of
America. Between the years last
