Some of the free silver papers
declare that the fight for cheap
money will be continued, even if
it is defeated this time. Of'course
it will continue. If free silver
wins, it will continue. The theo.
rists who will bring prosperity by
making money cheaper will al.
ways promise greater.prosperity by
making money still cheaper. If
the United States should pass to q
silver standard for money there
would be the same outcry against
the owners Of silver as there is
now against the owners Of gold.
BY driving gold out Of circulation,
money will be scarcer, as well as
cheaper. General demoraliza.
ton of business would result from
. change in the money standards,
would close many mills and facto.
ries, and work would be scarcer,
as well as being paid for in cheaper
money. For a remedy for the
hard times more cheap money
would, of course, be demanded, and
If the free silverites controlled the
government it would be supplied
either by paper money or would be
made" by decreasing the number
sof grains of silver in a dollar. BY
reducing the number of grains in
dollar the dollar can always be
fscheapened," SO prosperity lD can
be forced on a country. No, the
fight the free silyerites and Popu-
lists are now making will not stop
with this campaign. But with
the election Of the Republican ma.
tional ticket; the enactment of
( proper tariff laws, times will i'm
prove, and the fellows who are de-
manding cheaper money will
not have much following. The
fact that they are going TO keep
on demanding it should not induce
anyone to grant their request.
They are wrong, and the voters
will decide so as often as the ques.
stiOn comes up.
