Indiana, Illinois and Iowa, are taken

THE free silver craze is having it's
effect on the treasury reserve, and gold
is now being withdrawn for boarding
purposes. The individuals who are
doing this are undoubtedly of the opin-
ION that if the popocrat ticket is sue
cessful that gold will go to premium
and then actually become speculative

the civil war until specie payments

Reasons for Supporting Sound Money

Reasons for Supporting Sound Money
Reasons why voters should support
the sound money plank adopted at st.
Louis, for the maintenance of the ex-
listing standard and against the free
and unlimited coinage of silver unless
upon a ratio agreed upon and guaran-
teed by the concurrent action of the
chief commercial nations:
First Because it is upon the gold
standard that the United States has
for over fifty years accomplished an in
dustrial, commercial and social progress
unexampled in any other country orr in
any other age.
Second. Because gold as the stand
ard and silver as subsidiary money is
the only money recognized by the civ
ilized nations of the earth
Third. Because it is only by the
legal adoption of the gold standard
that we have been enabled to bring
into. circulation 42O,O0O,OO of silver
dollars and maintain them at par with
gold--although the metal in each silver
dollar is worth only 50 cents; whereas,
before that, when our laws permitted
the free coinage of silver, no silver dol
lars had been in circulation in this
country for thirty odd years.
Fourth. Because if we open our
minis to the unlimited coinage of silver
we shall sink to the silver standard of
China and Mexico and bring our labor
down to their level.
Fifth. Because if we drop to the
silver standard all our $500, 000,0 900 of
gold would disappear from circulation,
and we should thus be robbed of half
our metallic money, and our silver and
paper money would sink to one-half it's
present value, making total loss to
our currency of about 81, 200, 100000
Sixth. Because a drop to the silver
standard would rob the workingmen Of
this country sof large proportion of
their wages and of one-half the value
of all their deposits in savings and
other banks, and of their life insur-
ance, mutual benefit and fraternal poll
cies, while they would have to pay
nearly twice as much for all the neces-
saries and comforts of life.
Seventh. Because the first indication
of danger of going from the gold to the
silver standard would be the signal for
an immediate and general collection of
all debts, and for the sale of ali securi-
ties held in this or other countries, so
as to realize on them before they be-
came worth, under the silver standard,
only so cents on the dollar, with re-
sulting panic and a stoppage or shrink
age of all industries, which would be
UNNECESSARILY disastrous to working
men.
Eighth. Because the only persons to
be benefited by the adoption of the
silver standard would be the owners of
uncoined silver bullion, of which only
about $50, 100000 are produced annu-
ally in the United States-which is
immensely less shan the value of our
annual product of hens eggs alone.
We mightsadd many other reasons,
but these are sufficient to show that it
is the duty of all patriotic citizens to
support the moEey plank of the ST..
Louis convention and the candidate
who stands upon it.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1896-07-23

Mr.. BRYAN should remember that
the only people on earth who refuse to
be crucifed on a cross Of gold have lit
tie standing as great commercial ma
tions. They are such countries as
Mexico, China, Japan and some South
American nations. It should be noted
that none of these countries is troubled
with the immigration question or tie
high wage question.

THE FARMER AND COTTON.

The shortage of the cotton crop:
the early maturity of the staple,
the favorable weather for gather
ing it, and the disposition of the
farmer inaugurated early in the
season to rush it upon the market
while good prices maintained, in
order to meet his obligations, have
all contributed to the rapid and
early marketing of the crop. But
with their obligations met and
prices still firm, with a higher
tendency, the farmers r less
anxious to sell their surplus i'm
mediately. They have shown
a disposition to hold back their
'sproft'' cotton. Says the New
Orleans Picayune, a good author
ity on the subject, along this
line:
1.-The farmers realize that the
European spinner is holding off,
in the hope that accommodating
stocks will compel the Ameri-
can markets to part with the cot
ton at lower prices. They are
naturally anxious to thwart the
plans of the foreign buyers, and
they propose to do this by hold
back their cotton and afford an
opportunity to the merchants at
the supply centers to force an
improvement in values.
marketing the crop judicious>
ly is not a bad practice by half,
and the planters have shown, on
more than one occasion, that
they are capable Of influencing
the market by holding back,
Such a policy at this time cer-
tainly looks like a proper cure
for the hesitation of foreign buy
ers."
There can be but little douot
but that a stiff market will con-
tinue. Conditions justify such
belief aud the farmers propose
to be the beneiciaries of these
conditions as far as possible.
The result will be more money
and better times for them.

The Curse
Of Mankind!

The most horrible disease I which
the human family is subject is conta-
giors blood poison. 1t has always
bafled the doctors, for Notwithstanding
the progress made in some branches Of
medicine, they have failed absolutely to
discover a cure for it. Whether in the
form of powder, pill or liquid, the doc
tors prescription is always the same
potash or mercury.
MIR. Otto H. Ebert, who resides at the
corner of 72d Street, and Avenue N,
Galveston, Texas, had a severe expert
ence with this dreadful disease, and
under date of April 5th, 1896, writes:
Several years ago I was so unfortu-
nate Is to contract contagious blood
poison, and was. under treatment of the
best physicians continuously for four
years. As soon as I discovered that I had
the disease, I fastened to place myself
under the care of one of the foremost
doctors in my State, and took his
treatment faithfully for several mon his.
It was a very short time after he pro-
nounced me we'll, that the di- ease broke
out afresh, aud I was in a far worse con
dition hat at first. Large Jumps formed

The report of the Associated

liable information, states that the
importations and engagements of
gold for the present. import season
amount to $40, $50, 929. This is
exclusive of shipments from Can
ada and Australia. The amount
exceeds the most sanguine ex-
pectations at the beginning of the
season. Recently the rate of dis
count has been advanced in Lon
don for the purpose of checking
the flow of gold to this country,
but it has not so far affected it ma
terially, and the well posted fnan-

will exceed the estimates of the
