WORDS OF LIVING TRUTH.
Patriotic Wisdom Culled from Mr..
MckinIey's Speeches Upon
Questions Of the Day,

The American people hold the financial
honor of our government as sacred as our
flag, and can be relied upon to guard it
with the same sleepless vigilance.
Not content with the inauguration Of
the ruinous policy which has brought
down the wages of the laborer and the
price of farm products, it's advocates now
offer a new policy which will diminish
the value of the money in which wages
and prices are paid.
Our trouble is not with the character
of the money that we have, but with the
threat to debase it. We have the same
currency that we had in 1892, good
the world over, and unquestioned by any
people. Then, too, we had unexampled
credit and prosperity.
The platform adopted by the Repnh-
lican National Convention has received
my careful consideration, and has my un-
qualified approval. 1t is a matter of
qualification to me, as l am sure it must
be to you and Republicans every
pressions Of it's declaration of principles
are so direct, clear and emphatic. They
are too plain and positive to leave any
chance for doubt or question as to their
purport and meaning.
Inc employ ueHI OF the 1Qle money we
already have, in gainful pursuits, will
put every idle man in the country at
work, and when there is work there il
wages, and when there are work and
wages there are consumers who consti-
tute the best market for the products of
our soil.
The money of the United States, and
every kind and form of it, whether of
paper, silver or gold, must be as good
as the best in the world. 1t must not
only be current at it's full face value
at home, but it must be counted at par
in any and every commercial center of
the globe.
What we want is sound policy, finan-
cial and industrial, which will give cour-

O.-What are the facts?
A.-As far as the United States Is con
cerned there has been an enormous IN
crease. In 1860 the money IN clrcuIa'
ton in this country was S44Z.loA,4a1,

O.-What does this show?
Att shows that our money supply
has increased 240 per cent. as compared
with 1860 and 1O4 per cent. as COM
pared with 1872.
Q.-Has the money supply increased

A.--The reports of the director of the

Maxico,s burden of Free silver.

Michigan Iron Ore: The Detroit Trib-
une has staff correspondent in Mexico.
He describes the population of that coun-
try as being half beggars, and the bal
ance doing poorly. He says everything
is impoverished, and that the tales being
told of the success of that country are
lies, pure, cold and simple. And the cor
respondent is right, and truly describes
the condition. The reason that we re-
fer to this is that certain free silver
champions delight in calling attention to
the wonderful strides being made by
Mexico under the 16 to plan.

Workfngmen's Right to Organize

MINI A"e"s aiSnt 10 OrE0 ntZe.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In the controversy in which the Metropo.i-
tan Railroad Company and organized labor
are now engaged it seems to me only lust
that the attention Of the general public
should be directed to the fact that the
statement given out recently by the rail-
road company. while denying the fact,
seems to be in spirit a confession that the
discharges were made because of the actiy-
ity displayed by the dismissed employees in
the interest Of their organization, and for
no other apparent reason.
At the time Of the discharges, 1t was AL
legged, as 1 understand it, that they were
made because the men involved had I'M
dertaken to defeat legislation allowing ex-
tensions of the road that did not in any
way injuriousfy affect their interests, and
that this was done purely dog-in- the
manger spirit.
This charge, which, If true, would have
deprived the men of the sympathy of most
disinterested citizens, seems to have been
totally unfounded, being specifically denied
by the men and not reaffirmed by the
Metropolitan Railroad Company
The question presented, when Invested OF
all bubbles. seems to be the plain issue of
organize themselves for their own protec-
ton unmolested by their employers.
On this point I do not doubt that the
sympathy and active aid Of the great mass
of Washingtonians unidentified with or
ganized labor will be given to those who
struggle for the recognition Of this in
herent right Of free men. F.. B. N.

England states have majorities for free
coinage.
The subcommittee then made it's report
to the full committee, submitting the plat
form, which had been adopted last night.
w. W. Gatewood, a delegate from the
twelfth Texas district, made an argument
in favor Of moderation in the tariff decla-
ration. He represented that the interests
OF his section wanted protection to several
interests. He offered the following, which
he asked be Incorporated:
Resolved, That we favor n tariff for
revenue sufficient to defray the necessary
expenses of tho government economically
administered, and so adjusted as not to
discriminate against the Industries of any
section. especially the raw materials of the

ests."
A. r. Smith of Maine made an argument
before the committee in favor of the dif-
ferential tonnage tax, In accordance with
the resolution offered by Arthur Sewell of
Maine.

Gus persons, while waiting for the minor
1ty of the subcommittee to complete It's

Of Ohio both claim that such ticket and
