VOTING ON THE EIGHTH COM

WH1TELAw Reds LETTER.
Now, when aquestion is submitted
to popular vote, people must in.
fer that there are two sides to it,
and that they have right to vote
OIL whichever side their judgment
or their interest inclines. But
there are no two sides to the
moral law. No man, no party,

decide through an expression of
popular desires at sthe polls
whether this nation shall cheat
its creditors by paying it's debts
at the rate of So cents on tho dol.

debtor shall be at liberty to. cheat
to the same extent the man who

q crime. But having proposed it,

INCREASE IN WHEAT EXPORTS.

INCREASE IN WHEAT EXPORTS.
The free silverites always claim
that the decrease in the price of
wheat is due to the "demonetiza.
ton" of silver in 1878. The usual
theory has been that supply and
demand had considerable to do
with the price ofagricultural prod;
ucts. It is interesting to note the
surplus for export that the leading
wheat selling nations have had at
different periods. Twenty five
years ago the United States and
Russia were the leading wheat ex.
port nations, and India sold q little. 4
For the five. years of 1868 to 1872, I

E. W. DURANr FOR MCKINLEY.

Firm the St. Paul Globe: ILL.,,
1.-THE business men of Saltwater
and Washington county are in
favor of sound money regardless
of their political belief. Their
prosperity depends upon the re-
tention of the gold basis of finance.
The working men Of Saltwater
and all of the St. Croix valley are
dependent upon the prosperity Of
the numbering men for their own
welfare. The interests Of employer
and employed. are mutual. For
that reason I feel justified in say
ing that the free silver. craze will
not receive the support that has
been claimed by the friends of the
movement in in our section of the
state 49, p,
E. w. Durant, of Still water,
who is one of the biggest lumber
men and largest employers of the
st. Croix valley, is a sound money
Democrat, but he says this year
he intends to vote for Mckinley
because he believes the election Of
Bryan and the adoption Of the
free silver fallacy would bring
added stagnation and distress to
the Numbering interests Of this
country and to the people who are
dependent upon that branch Of
industry. For that reason. he
spoke yesterday in such emphatic.
terms concerning the polite al
outlook in Saltwater, and in. that.
section of the state tributary to
the St. Croix. Mr.. Durant was
careful to impress upon the re-.
porter for the Globe the fact that
the interests of employer and en-
ployed in the lumber business are
equally at stake in the present
campaign.

preston that has followed the

SILVER BFORE 1873.

One Of the strongest claims
made by the advocates of free sill
YER coinage Is the assertion that
that in 1873 the omission of the
silver dollar from the coins to be
made by this government resulted
in withdrawing one-half the metal
money from use as primary mon.
ey; that the law of 1873, in fact,
deprived from its place as a money
one.half the money of the constl-
tuition, stc. ,,>..>s;,. VI; ~
One listening to such claims
would be led to believe that until
1873 silver. and gold had always
beer, used in equal proportions by
the people as money. and that
both metals were. IN actual use. as
redemption, money. It is true
that up up to that time the nation
had nominallY free coinage Of both
metals. but the real, practical
effect had been that but one metal
at a time, had sought the minis or
was in actual circulation under
free coinage. Prior to 1884 the
gold dollar was worth more as
bullion than it was as coin for
circulation, and it was therefore
not used as current money. AT
that time, 1884, the government
reduced the weight Of gold
in a dollar, until the gold in dol
lar had less bullion value than the
silver in a silver dollar. The re:
suit was that silver went out of
circulation, as the metal was worth
more as bullion than it was as
coin. In 1854, in order to supply
the people with silver coins for
change, the government reduced
the weight in silver coins of less
denominations than one dollar,
and coined them on government
account only. The silver placed
in the 50,cent, 25.cent and
other small coins was really
worth less than 50cents, Is cents,
etc. The government didn't
allow free coinage of them, but
bought the silver and reserved the
small profit for itself. These coins
were issued only in such amounts
as the business needed, and were
legal tender for only limited
amount. The weight of silver
dollars was left as it was, and the
value remained greater as bullion
than as coin. None were in cir.
culation as money, and gold was
the standard to all intents and
purposes, as it had been since 1884.
Silver had no part in the money
system Of the country, except as
small change. It had right to
coinage and circulation, but as the
metal was more valuable than the
coin it did not exercise that right,
and was as entirely q commodity

This condition. continued until
the war brought on the issue Of
green backs, and they appreciated
below par. Then the gold went
out Of circulation, because 4 COLA
dollar was worth more than a
greenb back dollar. The greenbacks
droye out gold. Just as gold had
driven out silver doll rs since, 1884.
.Greenbacks and national bank
notes then formed the general
money of the country and slim.
plasters. Or, fractional currency,
were issued TO supply business
with small change, as even the
subsidiary silver had gone ont Of
circulation. :, Both gold and, silver.
still had the right Of free coinage.
but neither circulated % money.
J., In 1873 the government began
plans for. lredseming, the green
backs. and to provide. reserve
fund 3 Of. gold in !. which to pay any
greenb backs presented !, 4 In. that
year vas also passed laws regard.
iniig the coinage. Of cold and silver.
These coinage laws had been under
consideration and before congress
for years, and the, coinage Of the
silver dollar was. deliberately left
out, as it had actually not had a
place In the, money operations Of
the country since 1884. The
country's whole experience had
shown that both metals would not
seek the mint and the channels Of
trade at the same time, and as
only one would, in actual practice,
BE- used as redemption and primary
money, the government discontin.
ued the unused provision for the
free coinage Of both metals. AS
gold had been the standard metal
money in use for generation, and
was generally considered the best
standard, it was continued in it's
old place.
L. will be seen that there was
no violent striking down" Of
silver-because there had pract;c-
ally been no silver money since the
change in the weight Of the gold
dollar in 1884 had driven the silver
dollar out Of circulation.

Pursued by a Demon.

How many suicides, think you, reader, have
been committed by persons driven distraught
and hunted 10 their doom by the demon of
chronic i'll health? Countless. For instance,
we know, do we not, that hypochondriassis is
a m~onomanin-a sort of minor madness pro-
duced by chronic dyspepsia? Again, in
somnia, or sleeplcssness, often a result of the
same cause, eliminates III a arrangement of
the reas oniug faculties. 1t is, therefore, of
momentous Consequence to prevent the ar
rival of disease at its chronic phase, when it
daily and nightly scourges the sufferer to a
known TO science, as a means of arresting the
maladies to which it is adapted. exists equal
to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Among these
complaints are chronic indigestion and in-
somnia, Kidney and rheumatic ailments, con-
stipati on and liver trouble. Appetite is i'm
proved by the Bitters, the blood fortified, aud
bodily substance and vigor increased by it.
