PETTIGREw's PROPHEsY.

Newspaper files often reveal some
surprising things. On Nov. 18th, 1892,
just after the defeat of President Har-
rison for reelection, Senator Petit
grew was, as usual, interviewed in
Washington upon the causes of defeat
and the probable result. After scor-
ing Harrison somewhat, and declaring
that the election had also killed off
Mckinley and his protective ideas he
was asked, "Will the farmers alliance
(now the populist party) remain as a
permanent political party?" to which
the senator was quoted as replying:
II do not believe it will. 1t has no
great issues upon which to build itself
and there are no great leaders or or
ganizers connected with it. 1t has not
principles of Importance to keep it
alive. I Ibelieve all the states which
have bee" carried by the alliance this
year will he in the republican column
at the next presidential election"
Such were Pettigrew's conclusions
and prophesy then. We believe that
was true then. and is still true.

IT is WORK THAT BRINGS MONEY

The burden of the populist song is
that free coinage of silver will bring
plenty Of money, says the st. Paul Dis
patch, and that plenty of money will
bring plenty of work. That is the re-
frain they are constantly uttering in
the hearing of American working men.
That is simply an assertion, not an
economic fact.
If they were to listen to the truth,
there is not an intelligent person who
knows anything in regard to the state
of American currency, but will tell
them that the money institutions of
this country are overflowing with
money. It is not in circulation. that
is, tits not being used in any profitable
and productive investments for mum.
ber of reasons. When the semi-free
trade tariff law was passed by a dem

not be idle and that their mills and
factories could otstand still and they
proceeded to adjust themselves to the

The Deadwood Pioneer, democratic,
doesn't enjoy being swallowed up by
populists in this state quite SO we'll as
the Herald does. Hear it:
"Not to have the convention is a dis
appointment from business and So
cial point of view; but to be betrayed,
sold out by men calling themselves
honest democrats, is exasperating.
Local democrats were hot all over last
night. Even those who favored fusion
were angry. They are opposedto boss
ism and the one man power, besides
they say there is suspicion of a sale
to Pettigrew and the pops. Many of
them declared that they would not
vote the pop state ticket, though they
would have done so under proper fu-
sion. A leading democrat said, "a few
unprincipled men calling themselves
the state central committee calling
off the state convention is the most
high-handed outrage ever perpetrated
in American politics. Noact of south
ern bulldozing; no theft of a presi-
dency by a corrupt returning board
can equal the audacity of this coterie
of men, cannot call them democrats,
who have sold the party Several Of
them had only sufficiently recovered
to say It's id shame.'"

he will not permit himself to be swal-

address to the people is especially so.
He closes with the following:

lists, stalwart Fremonters, civil rights

American homes, American labor and
American prowess, whose fathers .sfiretl

against life long principles, a republi-
can statesman, a home protectionist
and gallant comrade who carried his

II do not know what you think about it,
but believe it is good deal better to

"Our creed embraces an honest dol
lar, an untarnished national credit,
adequate revenues for the uses of the

tend our foreign markets. Upon this

A CORDIAL TESTIMONIAL.

Perhaps Hon. NJ. L. Greeley of Gary,
who was an aspirant for the republi.
can nomination for governor, may feel
that the Press oughtn't to print it
and still there has come into posses
sion of this paper a private letter writ
ten by him to friend in another state,
which contains some expressions that
will make valuable contribution to
the republican literature of this cam
paign. And so, even at the risk of
making Mr.. Greeley feel that perhaps
an unfair advantage has been taken of
him, in publishing what was not written
for publication, the Press prints the
following from his pen:
"My defeat at Aberdeen was all right.
/ have not word of fault to find.
Ringsrud is splendid gentleman, and
| shall leave no stone unturned to help
land him in the gubernatorial chair.
His administration will be strong and
clean. The populists are striving in
every way possible among my friends
to make capital out of my defeat, but
my friends will remain loyal, and
have been writing letters almost night
and day to guarantee that they will
keep SO. We must election full ticket
this fall. and secure a majority of the
Legislature.
"Of course, my supporters felt that
i'll some ways and in some localities I
would have been especially helpful to
the ticket. l had hundreds of letters
and personal assurances from popu-
lists and democrats among the stock
men and farmers who said that they
would support me if was nominated,
but no other republican. They COM
plimented me by saying that they have
faith in me-still could never have
made so strong n governor as Ringsrud
will make, and know it-and in the
end it will all prove for the best.
"Ifully lyappreciate all your kind words
and the disappointment of such unset
fish friends as you are touches me
much closer than any disappointment
l have felt myself. am not ambitious
and, after all, Hearts are more than
coronets, and simple faith than Nor
man blood"
That is a noble, manly letter, and
Hon. A. o. Ringsrud will not receive
in this campaign any testimonial of
which he will have any more right to
feel proud. 1t is from man whose in.
dorsement will be respected and ac-
cepted wherever he may be KNOWN

new conditions that were created b,

new conditions that were created by
that law. ="
just as they were getting into shape
so that they could keep their mills and
factories going, Notwithstanding the
unfavorable tariff conditions, and fur
nish labor to American workingmen,
an artificial excitement in regard to the
free coinage of silver was brought about
by the silver mine owners, the only
party really interested in the success
of that question and the men who are
the owners of that idle capital in the
banks lave resolved to await the issue
of that dangerous and threatening dis
cussion.
The free silver advocates have found
the owners of that capital, which if re-
leased, would revive our manufactur-
ing industries determined to hoard un-
til such time or certainty will enable
them to enter upon new enterprises.
If the free coinage of silver were at
hand and the mints were turning out
millions of silver dollars daily, they
would be boarded in the same way as
all other dollars are now being put
away, until some profitable method of
employing them would present itself
to the owners of it.
1t is confidencet that sets money capi-
tai in motion and not the abundance
of it. The free silver advocates think
they have got on the blind side of the
workingman in that respect and that
he fails to understand that it is conf.
dence alone that is necessary to re-
lease the hundreds of millions of dol
lars that are now lying idle in the
banks.

Some people may be so constituted
that they are dishonest i'll their politi-

everybody who disagrees with us is
dishonest or an anarchist-far from it.
They are just as sincere and patriotic

does not consent that their cause is

ment used is honest. They probably

Very few silverites will contend that
the adoption of the democratic plat
form into law will not drive out gold.
They even admit that it would. Then
of course the United States, like Mex
leo, would have silver monometallism,
having no gold. The republican party
have always SO legislated as to have
both gold and silver and always will.
Make note of this important fact. 1t
is worthy of note because the demo-
Gratis insist that the republican party
doesn't favor having anything but
gold-they try to make the unwary be.

Don't get confused over the fact that
this country has both gold and silver
as money-about one-third as much
silver as gold-which is all of equal
purchasing power, ''good as gold.''
And don't forget the fact that the re-
publican party has always favored
coming as much silver as this country
can possibly maintain as good as gold.
Some people are endeavoring to carry
the impression that the republican
party is opposed entirely to the use of
silver as money. This is absolutely
untrue, and there is nothing whatever
to give grounds for such claim.
