WHY This EayOriSisxae2

Silver can be profitably produced in
&his country at 60 cents an ounce. It is
now selling here for a fraction over 90
cents. The mine owners ask, and the
Chicago convention is ready to agree.
that the government shall make their
product worth $1.29 for coinage pur-
poses. Why this favoritism? If the
government-which means the taxpay-
ers-is to double the value of silver
bullion why may it not logically be
asked to double the value Of wheat
corn, cotton and potatoes, by making
an '<unlimited'' market for them at q
fictitious price? The silver product Of
this country is relatively of minor I'm
portance. It's real value in 1895 was
about $32, 100000. The copper product
was worth $38,o0o,0oo; pig iron, $685.
100000 and soft coal $115, 100000. Way
should these products be sold at com
mercial rates and silver be doubled in
money value by act of congress? The
silver craze is, at bottom, unjust pateF~
nalism and the worst bunlxo game eye1
attempted in this oountry.-N, Y,

killing the Goose, Etc.

The Baltimore Sun points out that
sour good times have in the past al
ways been times when foreigners were
investing money freely among us. It
was not altogether or chiefly our own
savings that made business brisk. 1t
was the continued influx of foreign
gold. Now we are unfortunately iso-
lated by the threat of the silver basis,
and shall be bottled up industrially if
we shall ever actually reach it. Our
theorists kill the goose that laid the
golden egg"

Choose Your Metal.

Our free silver friends tell US that sill
yer is just as good as gold. If 50, what
harm results to anybody from allowing
the creditor of the bank or government
TO make his choice of metals? Why, at
any rate, object to paying debts In the
kind of metals borrowed? # silver
man prefers silver to gold, either gov
ernment or banker must pay it to him,
and for all debts. all taxes, all ohlga-
tons due the nation, state, county or
municipality, silver is now q full ten

thought by the Baltimore sun to be
"the same which caused the greenbocb
heEesy to find advocates in so many
states OF the union 90 years ago-the
feeling OF unrest and a desire for a
change, no matter what, produced by
hard times, bad business and lack of
employment-the desire, conscious or
unconscious, of debtors to scale their
debts by paying them in deprecated
currency-the vague idea that more
money in circulation means more
money in each individuals pocket, with
out reference to his means or opportu-
nifty to earn or acquire it"

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.---The above
table affords an interesting and binds
eve view of about twenty-five of the
leading silver mine owners Of the west,
who, eitherin person, or through their
agents, have been active IL shaping
the IS to plank in the various plat
forms of the Democratic, Populist and
| Silver conventions.
Senator Teller was a candidate for
the presidential nomination Of the sill
yer Combine, having bolted the Repub-
lican convention for that purpose.
Senator Stewart has been for years
the silver leader in'the United States
senate, and is the author Of the ex-
preston "the crime of '73 " In 1874,
he was Just as ardent in his advocacy of
the gold standard and said: l want the
standard gold, and no paper money not
redeemabe in gold, Gold is the univer-
sal standard Of the world. Every body
knows what dollar in gold is worth.
These words are quoted from the Con-
gressional Record page / 1892, vol 2.
part 2, Forty-third congress. He is
now publishing ia WASHINGTON and
Virginia free silver paper called
the Silver Knight" Although 8
multi-millionaiGe, iaboing men charge
him With conducting "rat Office and
undecpaying his printers. To the
| silver mine owners the election Of 8ry-
an and of a Democratic free silver
house means millions. Placing the
product of their mines at fftyfour
million ounces year, though it would
soon be one million ounces, end the
government paying them at the rate Of
81. 20 an ounce, and granting, for the
sake of argument, that it does cost
68 cents an ounce to mine 1t, the people
of the United States would pay into the
pocket of the silver miners forty-one
million per annum, and make gigan tic
monopolists Of the very men vino are
crying out against monopolies in their
platform. This Is an undnly con
serYative estimate Of the profits of
silver barons. The actual figures
would likely be seventy FIVE million
per annum.
1t will thus be seen at glance what
is involved in the election of Mr.. Bry-
an, not counting the evils that would
flow from the retirement of upwards
of six HUNDRED million dollars, OF gold
upon which the credit of the nation is
to unded.

IT having been reported yesterday
morning that no Guthrie tickets were
to be found at the polling places in
this city an Observer reporter made it
his business to ascertain the truth of
the statement, with the result found in
the news columns Of this paper. At
one place some were found in mis-
cellaneous collection of tickets and at
another box were some in The the
pocket Of a local Populist politician.
Of course these tickets were deliberate
ly suppressed and the manner in which
they were dealt with here will be
found to have be m part of a system
which was worried throughout the
State. Guthrie has been knitted to
death by the same remorseless machine
which procured his nomination for a
purpose. Maj. Guthrie has been made
the victim Of skillfully and s,stemat-
ically worked confidence game. He
will know better who to trust next
time.--Charlotte Obser0ey.

A NEW ENGLAND VULTURE.

Not satisfied with heaping its abu-
sive epithets upon the living, the Bos-
ton TRANSCRIPT, one of the most intern
perate organs of the money power, has
even gone so far as to carry its edito.
rial venom into the chamber of death.
While Georgia is still grieving over the
loss Of her peerless son, ex-Speaker
Charles F. Crisp, the Boston Trans
eribt, without regard for her bereave-
ment, seeks to malign the motives
which inspired that great leader.
In commenting upon his election to
the speakership of the National House
Of Representatives this bitter New Eng.
land daily comes out at this late day
with the slanderous charge of log-roll-
ing and barter as the means prelimi-
nary TO the attainment of that high
honor. Not a single word of common.
dation does the Transcript find in its
vocabulary with which to indorse the
patriotic and impartial manner in
which Judge Crisp discharged the
duties OF his important Office. When
every paper in the land is praising the
superb leadership of the lamented
Georgian and even his foes are gener-
Gus in the sympathetic tributes of re-
spect which they have laid upon his
tomb, the Boston Transcript is the
only paper in the country which has
been SO inconsiderate in the hour of
death as to assail the patriotism Of the
matches Georgian. In thus seeking
to malgn the good name Of Judge
Crisp, while yet the blossoms are fresh
upon his grave and the tears ola loving
commonwealth are still falling. the
Boston Transcript has emulated the
example Of the vulture, not the eagle.
Georgia resents the fling of this
great New England daily, no, only be-
cause Of the insult offered to her sor-
row, but especially because Of its injus-
tice. Such assaults however, as a rule,
are far less hur.ful to the party who re-
ceives the blow than to the one who
deals it. The wave that dashes against
the rugged promontory leases neither
trace nor scar upon its surface. On
the other hand. it breaks into a mil
lion wa.ery fragments and recedes
again into the troubled deep.
In the hearts of his people the good
name Of Judge Crisp is secure, and
long after the men who Islander him
are forgotten the example Of his splen-
did leadership will be a deathless in
splration.-A.lanta Constitution.
