Georgetown (Tex.) sentinel.I
1t is common thing to hear a free
silver Democrat say:
"Well, if the Democratic party fails
to declare for free silver, and adopts a
gold standard platform in the next
Convention | won't vote for them"
In the light of the history of that
party such expressions are calculated
to make sensible man tired. Did not
the Democratic party with 14S ma
jority in the Fifty-secOnd Congress
twice refuse to adopt a free coinage
law? Did not the Democratic party
in the Fifty-third Congress, with prac-
tically majority of 1872 votes, repeal
the only law on the statute books that
gave us an increase in the money VOL
ume of this country, and at the same
time vote down a proposition for the
free coinage of silver at the ratio from
Is to to 20 to by overwhelming ma
jOrities?
Did not the last Democratic National
convention vote down a proposition
favoring the free coinage of silver, and
at the same time adopt a gold standard
Is not the present National admins
tration, from President down to fourth
class postmasters, Democratic, and isn't
every mothers son of them not only
opposed to free coinage, but actively
aggressive in their advocacy of gold
standard and contracting money vol
| ume? If so (and no man can deny
that if is SOY, what action do you re-
quire the Democratic party to take be-
fore you quit them? It is childish for
men to say that they will leave the
party if they denOunce free silver and
adopt a gold basis. Haven't we got q
| gold basis now? Wasn't it given to US
by Democrats? Is not a Democratic
administration enforcing it at this
blessed minute? If so, why prattle
about what you will do if the Demo.
cratic party does so and so, that they
have already done?
1t is a matter of absolute impossi
bility for the Democratic party to mOr'
effectually declare and demonstrate it
hostility to free coinage than it has al
ready done, or to declare more posi-
lively in favor of gold standard thar
it has already declared.
1t is criminal for men who believ
that free coinage and an increasing

prosperity and welfare of our cOuntr

Prof. Edward w. Bemis, late as

made statement as to why he left
that institution. He quotes the fol-
lowing from letter of President
Harper:
81 am persuaded that in the long
run you can do in another institu
ton, because of the peculiar circum-
stances here, better and more satis-
factory work to yourself than you
can do here. l am personally very
much attached to you. You are,
however, man of the world enough
to know that unless one is in the
best environment he cannot work to
the best advantage. You are so well
known and your ability so widely
recognized that there will surely be
no difficulty in securing for you good
position, one in which you will be
monarch and one in which you will
be above all things else independent" 7"

of the president are given setting

and pleasant relations with nearly

his hand large cannon cracker. lighted, and
