scaling of the national debt, but its pay
mcnt i'm deprecated silver has a danger
Gus sectional support. Nor will any party
directly cut down the pensions of Union
soldiers but those who fought on the
other side may look with complacenCy
upon a prospective liquidation of such
large demands in dollars of considerably
less value.
our Southern brethren also much desire
to invite immigration and capital from the
North to develop their immense and long
slumbering natural resources and their
Industrial prosperity would be hailed with
Joy by the whole Union as that might
terminate rancorous divisions upon econ
omic questions; but in 1894, with the
primacY of cheaper coal, iron cotton and
labor when their opportunity arrived for
Il substantial advance, If not for suprem-
acY in our large home industries they
flung away their birthrights for a mongrol
froe-tradc measure of which no one claims
the paternity and only exhibited steeple-
chase craftsmanship further by sundry
Attempts to foist upon our country n stand
ard dollar not worth more than so cents.
All attempts, however to guide and govern
a great people by lame or by cunning cx-
podients have ever been doomed in the
end to disastrous failure.
The logical nveracity of some silver
champions, though often exposed seems
inherent and incurabie. They constantly
represent, with "portentous solemnty,"
as if it were true that the worlds product
Of gold has annually grown smaller, and
therefore, has enormously advanced in
value. At the same time they cruelty
their logic by refusing to admit that the
prouipIoua incroose of silver has in nnv
degree diminished it's value.
But what are the facts about the worlds
product of gold? Prior to 1850 it was annu-
ally about $4,000 600. During the golden
era of California it largely increased and
subsequently, decreased since 1854 the
