MORE TERRORISM:
Here is.o one of the cudgels that hang
over the heads Of servile conventions
and parties:
New York, June 11.-Mr. J. Pier.
pont Morgan, who has just returned
to this country from his annual trip
to Europe, was at his Wall street Of
day he was VISITED by about every
Wall street. "Unlimited European
capital" continued Nh. Morgan,
awaits Investment in the United
States provided the currency question
here is settled satisfactorily. But no
straddle platform at St. Louis will do.
1t will not be accepted abroad"
Such dictatorial and hauty declara.
tiOns as that from ABROAD" ought to
heat every drop OF American blood to
the point Of sizzling resentment.
Every dollar Of European capital" in
vested In this councry on any such
basis is another CALLING chain fasten-
ed upon US. Rather ten thousand
times that all snobbery in America be
forced over to Europe, and let the
rest of us live on roasted potatoes and
wear homespun gowns and shirts.
Americans! how long are you going to
endure this?-Ex.
The talk is that the country IL to
be plunged into another panic to scare
the people away from free silver. In
stead of soaring them 1t is likely 70
make them more desperate. 1t is not
safe to monkey" with seventy mil
lion people when their blood is at
white heat. The Slavocracy started
secession as q campaign bluff to
scare the North. We know how it
ended. Let the money-lenders look
out.
Here is the threat:
Special to the St. Paul Dispatch.
Washington. July LII the free sill.
YER radicals persist In their mad
career at Chicago, q financial panic
will result within thirty days after
the convention, declaring for free
predicted by the sound money men
who are passing through the capital
this week en- route to the west, to take
part in the greatest battle ever
fought within the lines of the Demo
cratic party.
Some OF the Eastern bankers, with
large holdings In the West, say that
there will be no extensions OF time
granted on mortgages, and that all
loans maturing this year must be set
tied promptly. What effect will this
ultimatum have on the horde Of free
silver delegates, soon to assemble
within the Coliseum walls? 10 such
men as the fiery little Vest, and the
impulsive Bryan, 1t will produce re.
suits similar to those arising from
shaking red flag In Spanish bull
fighting arena.
To the conservative silver men like
Senator Jones, Of Arkansas and
Daniel Of Virginia, the voice Of the
Eastern capitalists Is note Of warm
ing, for it has already been demon
strated that the combined influence
OF the Eastern In teres is can precipi-
tate q financial crash. There will GER
tainly be another object lesson ere
President Cleveland relinquishes the
rod OF chas tisement for Democracy
and the country at large.
This Is about the way the gold men
Of the East, who will lead the fight at
Chicago against free coinage, figure II
free coinage wins and a free coinage
candidate Is named, there will be an
immediate raid on the gold reserve
which at this time stands but little
above the hundred million limit.
Eastern banks and trit companies
will call their Southern and Western
loans. Money will become scarce and
gold will be boarded to greater ex-
tent than in 1893 The president will
probably call an extra session Of Con-
gress, and put the Republicans to the
test OF carrying out their declarations
for. the maintenance Of the single
gold standard. With Teller, Dubois,
Cannon, Pettigrew and Brown Joined

the administration licutenants, to

sound money men, and save the ma
tional credit.
II Mr.. Cleveland insugurates death
and destruction for the American,
people his own life would not be
worth q months purchase.
