A Way to Get Rich.

Mayor Pingree, of Detroit, has sug-
gested that patriotic club be formed
OF men not to purchase any goods of
foreign production or manufacture as
a way of keeping American gold at
home and relieving the hard times by
stimulating home manufactures. He
thinks the American people could get
along without the luxuries now pur-
chased abroad. He says: "Cut off
the purchase of foreign luxuries. We
make good champagne in California
and manufacture good woolens in
America. We don't have to buy these
articles. We may have to giveup our
tea and coffee. We should also keep
Americans from carrying their three
hundred million dollars in gold to
Europe every summer when they
travel abroad, and in this way the
gold reserve would soon take care of
itself. l understand that business is
bad IN all European cities but Paris,
and there the Americans with their
money make it lively"
There is more practical statesman
ship in this suggestion than in all of
the Populistic, Communistic, or Demo.
cratic theories advanced since the year
I. Carry out the idea and in twenty
i've years we will own the world and
all it contains.

What "Free Silver" Has Already
Cost The Government.

From the recent revised edition of

P. 234, is quoted the following para

silver has been purchased as follows.
Under the Act of 1873 (Bland), ao1,-
272,oI9 fine ounces, at a cost of
3o8, 27o, 26I; under that of 1900
(Sherman), 1853, 674, 6S2 ounces at a
cost OF SI55,o3I, oo2. The silver bull

cents an ounce for only about S3aS.-
900, 900, or$I36, 600, 900 less than paid

his associates have now most regret.

party which they can no longer vic.

Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1896-07-18
An independents Opinion.

Some took offense at the Herald be-
cause we, last week, declared that
the free coinage of silver is advocated
by communists, anarchists, etc. The
Washington Times, an independent
newspaper, in its issue of Wednesday,
says that the principles of Democracy
"are to be jumbled into a potpourri
of populism, anarchy and skip-brained
theories as a means of again estab-
fishing the reign of the bonanza
kings. A tariff for revenue is to be
harnessed along with protection for
the silver interests, and one
'gallused' money crank will be per-
mitted to use a 10 to I door mat at
the White House In the madness of
its discomfort this disafected conven-
ton proposes to subordinate Dem
ocratic traditions to an attempt to
make 81 cents pass for dollar, and
in addition to this national repudia-
ton of public and private debt it will
also subject the business interests of
the country to the strain OF a disas-
trous financial panic. All this is to
be done that the impracticability of
free silver coinage without an inter
national agreement may be demon
strated in the name of Democracy.
"The Chicago silver fog bank also
boasts that it will give the country
platform of the Constitution. so far as
the money plank is concerned, as if
such thing were possible, especially
when the Constitution does not refer
to 10 to I parity between silver and
gold. The trainers of the Constitu-
ton might as well have stipulated
that we should always sleep on feath-
ers or wear powdered wigs with pig
tail queues. Our money is already
the kind specified by the Constitu-
ton, and its gold, silver and paper
dollars are as good as gold wherever
they circulate. 1t has long since
been demonstrated impossible to fix
by legislation the price of any mar
ketable commodity with an unknown
and unlimited production, and until
this government can restrict the out
put of both gold and silver to certain
prooortionate quantities, in order to
regulate their commercial value,
there is no way to establish a stable
parity between these metals by
statute"
