Grenfe!l Endorses Arendt,

Some time ago the St. Paul Pioneer
Press challenged The Herald to name a
single English or European bimetallist
Of note who believed that the United
States could independently undertake
himetall1sm successfully In reply The
Herald cited the names Of several of the
most distinguished bimetallists of Eng
land, France ard Germany. who had
placed themselves on record as saying
that. in their opinion, this country could,
by adoptingg,free coinage Of gold End sill
yer at is to 1, maintain the parity. The
Pioneer Press never returned to the sub
iect. It did not even have the fairness
to acknowledge that, when it asserted
that no foreign bimetallist entertained
such views, it was in error.
Since that time The Herald has pub
lished the strong article written by Dr..
Otto Arendt, the leading German bime-
tallist, asserting that the zelec,lon Of Nc
Kinley on the St. Louis gold platform
would be practically a death blow to the
movement for international blmetallism,
and that if lie we've an American citizen
he would nnquestio nably vote for Bry-
an. The Pioneer Press has not admitted
DR.. sArendt's article to its columns, al.
though it has in the past. cited him as
an able advocate Of an International
agreement of bimetallisn. IS
And now comes w. H. Grenfell. the
well known English bimetallist, and SAYS
that If he were an American his vote
would be cast for Bryan. Mr.. Grenfell
is the president Of the general council
|of the Bimetallic league Of England.
Like Arendt and Won Kardoff, in Ger
many, he has now abandoned the theory.
formerly generally held in Europe, that
free coinage by the United States alone
would injnre the cause of international

bimetal lism, and has reached The concln-
SION that If America will lead the way,
Europe will have TO follow.
In an interview published n the New
York Journal, Mr.. Grenfell says 81 look
to the UB1ted States as the one great
hope Of anything being done in the di-
|rection Of international bimetallism.
Matters in Europe are at a standstill.
= : The impression seems to pre-
vail. that unless England will become .
partner the other countries will do moth
ing. = + am afraid that If other
countries are going to wait for England
they will wait forever. Ones thoughts,
therefore, turn to the great republic a
cross the seas. She has the opportunity
and she has the power of setting the ex-
ample. Il is an example which, I be-
lieve, will be speedily followed. z
Nj. Grenfell was asked if he thought
that the United States would do well to
return to free silver coinage, without re-
gard to the action of other countries. 81
do, most certainly, was his reply. s1f
/ were a citizen of the United States
should go about with Is to i badges all
over me. = X / believe that if the
system were gwen fair play the United
States is big enough, rich enough and
strong enough to maintain the par of ex-
change alone and to settle the ratio for
the world. Besides, I believe that other
countries would soon follow her exam
pie. Anyhow, gold has been drawn
from the country for some time, and it
does not seem a logical way to keep ones
gold by increasing ones gold indebted
ness, which apparently the sound mon
sey' panacea. \ = would much
rather try to keep gold in the United
States by going over to silver than by
raising gold loans.'
Mr.. Grenfell said he could not see any
ground for believing that Europe would
unload her silver in America il the Uni
ted States adopted free coinage. Mr..
Grenfell added ssAs regards the 50-cent
dollar 1 think, socially and economi-
cally, 50-cent dollar is preferable to a
15O-cent dollar, and if am paid Ii dol
and can pay my debts with it, I do not
much care whether it is called 5O-cent
dollar or not. But there would be no
5O-cent dollar about it. AS soon as the
minis were freely opened to silver thepe
would be a great rise in its value as
compared with gold" In closing Mr..
Grenfell spoke of the work done in Eng
land in behalf of blmetallism and SAID
.sBut the forces against us here are very
strong too strong for England to take
the initiatlve-and I look with hope a
cross the Atlantic for the most important
reform, orrather redress, of modern times
The above are the opinions Of one Of
the leading bimetallists of England, and
the goldbug advocates cannot say that
he IS talking in behalf of the silver mine
owners or is in their employ. -Duluth

Mr.. Lind is experiencing, just now,
the unpleasantness of being candidate
for Office in opposition to the g.o.p.,in the
personal abuse and criticism to which he
is subjected When he was before the
public as Republican candidate he was
treated courteously and gentlemanly, land
never suffered personal pain in conse
quence of any criticism passed upon him
by his Democratic opponents. He was
led to believe that he was very respect
able gentleman, and such was in fact his
record. But now that he has become a
candidate of the Democrats and Popu-
lists, there is nothing too mean to be said
against him. He is charged with athe-
ism, with hypocrisy and doubled dealing
in religious matters; with personal dis
honesty in business transactions; and eve
rything, that IS likely to arouse prejudice
among Democrats, is dug up and exhib-

generous sensibilities all this is unpleas-
ant. 1t impresses Mr.. Lind with the
treachery and low propensities of men
who have claimed to be his personal
friends, some OF whom were recipients of
his favors. It is not doing him any harm
with his supporters. The men who nom
inated Mr.. Lind have confidence in his
honesty and integrity lin his they
recognize the possibilities of great good
to the state at large;and they are not go
ing to allow petty things, which Repub-
licans approved and app]auded at the
time aud now hunt up 70 help their un-
worthy cause,to divert attention OF with

Here is what Senator Sherman said

heCo is WQdC OeudLOr oleIuldu Sdlu III
1863:
:'Che contraction of the currency is a
far more distressing operation than Sen
ators suppose. Our own and other ma
tons have gone through that operation
before. tits not possible to take that
voyage without the sorest distress. To
every person except capitalist out of
debt, or salaried officer or annuitant, it
is period of loss, danger, lassitude of
trade, fall of wages, suspension Of enter
prize, bankruptcy and disaster. It means
ruin of all dealers whose debts are twice
their business capital, though one-third
less than their actual property. 1t means
the fall of all agricultural production
without any great reduction of taxes.
What prudent man would dare to build
house, railroad, a factory, or barn
with this certain fact before him?'
Now why isn't the above applicable
to the situation as we ma 1t tOuay!'
The money Of ultimate redemption is be-
ing gradually narrowed down to gold
and that metal is gradually approaching
in value as direct result. The volume
of currency, necessary to sustain the cred
it required to carry on constantly in.
creasing business, has been curtailed and
contracted, and what do we find as a
consequence? just what Senator Sher-
man predicts in the article quoted above.
Nevertheless Mr.. Sherman has seen ft>to
abandon his old and honest convictions
for policy that is exclusively British in
its nature and that is opposed by every
leading bimetallist. in the world.

Maine is said to have gone Republi-
can on Monday by $4,000, a gain of six
thousand over two years ago.

Secretary John g. Carlisle saidin 1878:
81 know that the worlds stock of
precious metals is none too large, and /
see no reason to apprehend that It will
ever be so. Mankind will be fortunate
indeed if the annual production of gold
and silver coin shall keep pace with the
annual increase of population and indus
try. According to my views of the sub
ject the conspiracy which seems to have
been formed here and inEurope to destroy
by legislation and otherwise from three
sevenths to one-half the metallic money
OF the worlds the most gigantic crimeof
this or any other age. The contamination
of such scheme would ultimately entail
more misery upon the human race than
all the wars, pestilences and famines
that ever occurred in the history of the
world. The absolute and instantaneous de-
,struction of half the entire movable prop
.erty of the world, Including houses, ships,
railroads, and other appliances for carry
ing on commerce, while it would be felt
more sensibly at the moment, would not
produce anything like the prolonged dis
tress and disorganization of society that
must Inevitably result from the perma-
nent humiliation of nne-half the metal
lie money Of the world
There isn't word of that which isn't
just as true today as when Mr.. Carlisle
uttered 1t, and yet we now find him on
the other side, upholding policy which
he had often admitted to be ruinous. Will
someone please tell us why.
