Free Silver and Pensions.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: As many
pensioners and Government employees do
not seem TO- understand how Free Silver will
affect their incomes, please let me make it
plain. The Free Silverites claim that the
farmers will yet better prices for their grain
and the workingmen therefore will obtain
better prices for their labor, and we know
that all imports would keep up to the gold
standard. Therefore, when -four goes up to
$40 barrel, coffee 10 so cents a pound and
other things in proportion, the pensioner will
only receive his pension of $12, or whatever it
may be now, and the Government clerk his
5000 or 81 200 salary, or whatever it is at
present. Thus the cost of living for all
Government employees and pensioners will
be doubled, while they will only receive the
same annual amount as heretofore. The in
crease of the wages of mechanics and work.
insmen will not lead to any increase of Gov
ernment salaries and pensions, while flour
and clothing will double in price under the
Free Silver regime. These facts are plain
and easily understood, and there should be
no doub. as to how the Government en-
ployee or pensioner should vote. The Demo-
Gratis here make no reserve of saying that
Free Silver is only catch penny cry to get
into power again. They know that elect
ing Bryan will not give them Free Silver, as
Congress would have to pass an act to estab-
lish the free coinage Of silver. In the last
Presidential election, when wheat was about
so cents per bushel, the Democrats had q
rallying cry of "Vote for Cleveland and
wheat al 81 bushel." They voted for
Cleveland, and wheat got down as low as so
cents, and we have had hard times ever since.
Now they have the cry of Free Silver, aud
claim that will restore good times, when the
fact is that we need more revenue to meet
the current expenses Of the Government, so
that issues of bonds such as have been made
in this Administration may be made no
more in the future. We need never expect
good times until the Republicans are in
power again.-WM. Z. DOYLE, Stevensburg,
Va
