Disadvantage to All,

President Hyde of Bowdoin college
who believes in free trade, deprecates
the possibility of the ascendency of Bry-
ansm and writes letter to the Boston
Journal from which we clip the follow
ing:
THE sudden adoption of the silver
standard "a double standard being prac
tically out of the question: by destruc-
ton of confidence and disturbance of
values, would be an absolute and per
manent injury to everybody. Yet in
tnis universal disaster a temporary and
relative advantage would come to the
debtor in the form of cheaper dollars
wherewith to pay his debts, and To the
farmer in the form OF rise in the silver
price of his products more rapid than
the corresponding rise in the wages Of
labor aud the price Of manufactured
goods. Yet even the debtor aud the
farmer would in the end lose vastly
more, through their share in the ulti-
mate effects of panic and depression,
than they would gain at the expense OF
savings. enterprise and labor. The
owner aud miner of silver is the only
man who would gain more directly than
he would lose Indirectly

Immediate and independent action of the
United States in favor OF himemli,m
which does notMppear in the original.
President White of Cornell University
writes to Gov. Culbersou caliag his at
tention To this dishonest translation
which practically amounts 10 forgery.
He also proceeds to show that with or
without the interpolatei paragraph the
letter cannot be construed that Bis.
marck advises free coinage of silver.
What the letter supports Is bimealism.
lie furthermore states that the applica-
tion of Culberson and Bryan to Bismarck
for this letter and the use of his reply
WAS the most farcieal event in American
history. Bismarck ia 1879 to ISL was
the controlling and directing agent in the
decentralization of silver by the German
government.
Mr. White says: somewhat over
half of the vast mass of silver thus re =
dueed 10 bullion was sold by the German
Government; but the price ran so low
that the sales were stopped, and the
German Treasury was left with an
enormous quantity of this deprecated
money IN its Golfers, amounting to some
thing over one hundred millions of dol
lars. \ little of it-say two millions of
dollars-Germany managed TO work off
upon poor Egypt under the khedive
lew fix; and AS Bismarck is really Il
patriotic, far sighted statesman, he
would naturally be glad To find Il similar
dupe on this side of the Atlantic. and to
unload upon the United States at say
twice its market value"
Bismarck, he writes, terly declined to
take part in any scheme of bimetalism
without the cooperation of Great
Britain although the United States and
France jointly and officially united in
urging it upon his government.
Mr.. Whites letter concludes as fol
lows:

BY THEIR RIGHT NAMES.

Things arc called by their rlght
names over in Washington. The
ticket nominated at EIlensburg goes
under the caption of the Peoples
Party" a designation which is used
for Populists throughout the country.
Populism in Washington has swal-
lowed up Democrats and n few free
silver Republicans. This is the end
to which events have been gravitat-
ing for some time. 1t was idle to
talk of free silver Democrats, free
silver Republicans and Populists as
different beings. They are one and
the same, all committed to the
dangerous doctrines of free silver,
which is their shibboleth in this
campaign.
In other states things haven't set
tied down as they have in Washing
ington, but when the empty desig-
nation of names is dIsregarded, these
parties stand upon the same issue.
Among the rank and file of the
Populist party are many honest men.
bnt the leaders-those who control
and shape the party-stand in not
altogether favorable light before the
country. Jones and Stewart of Ne
Tada, Jerry Simpson, Candidate
Watson and Bryan-since he is a
Populist as much as the others-are
not names to conjure with.
The Popul1sts clamor for debased
currency, for the government owner
ship of railways and te!egraphs, for
the condemnation of the supreme
court Their success in any one of
these means disaster to the country.
The success of the Populists means
also that free trade will be the policy
of the administration. The record
eff Bryan is such that he car be
counted upon to veto any bill re-
storing protective tariff on wool.
Have you thought of that, free silver
Republican, who but few months
ago was, along with the rest of us,
condemning the policy which had
brought destruction 10 our wool in
terests?
A year ago the men who now have
left the Republican party, intending
to vote for Bryan, did not think they
would vote for a Democrats soon
have the lessons of adversely been for
gotten.
Wasco county has had enough of
Democracy. Let us hope our erring
brothers may return to the fold be-
fore November.
