The person who thinks the lack of
money is responsible for the present
depressed condition of the country,
is most woefully mistaken. The truth
is there is as much or more money in
the country now, than at any other
period in its history.-Elmore Inde
pendent.
The Independent has been well
whipped into the Republican traces
and as an advocate of the gold stand
ard, for it has been but few months
ago that it was talking and advoca-
ting just the opposite. 1t even went
so far as to predict the defeat
of the republican party if it resolved
against the free coinage of silver and
and the double standard. But now
the Independent has taken up the
cry of the gold men, that there is
enough if not too much money for
the people, and instead of giving
them more through the free coinage
of silver, give them less by upholding
the present single gold standard,
which is steadily contracting the per
capita of the money circulation, thus
running and curtailing the business
interests of the country. Under the
gold standard the contraction of the
currency per capita was from $24. 8;
in 1894 to $22.57 on October 1st, 1895
And yet, in the face of these facts
the Independent has the cheek to tel
Its readers that there is more money
than ever before. The fact of thu
matter Is, the circulating money
medium Of this country is too small
by one-half, and instead of havin,
$22 per capita let it be double tina
amount and it will not be any toe
much, only about equal to that o
France, one of the most progressiv
nations upon the earth.

SAMUEL HELLER, of Napoleon, was
in town last Monday. Altho' an old
line Democrat, Mr.. Heller will work
hard for the election Of Mckinley this
fall.-Ottawa Gazette.
1t is MIR. Heller's privilege to vote
for Mckinley if he wishes to, and no
doubt he does so because the apostle
of high protection and the dummy
who has been placed upon the gold
pedestal by Boss Platt and the Wall
street sharks, suit his ideas better
than the broad and humane princi-
pies advocated by Mr.. Bryan. But,
when Mr.. Heller poses as an old line
Democrat, he is off his base and pre-
tends to be something he is not. We
have it from good authority, that OF
the chairman of the Democratic conn
ty executive committee, that since
1899 Mr.. Heller's name on the party
poll book has been placed in the
doubtful column or under the head
of Republican. The Lord have mercy
upon the Democratic party if it was
made up of such adherents as Mr..

REPUBLICANS WHISTLING TO
KEEP THEIR COURAGE UP.
Their Tune, @Ths Silver Craze is Re-
CeedtnS."
But Facts Convert the Tune into
a Wall.
From the Toledo Bee.l

"Unless Mr.. McKinley's managers
are able to turn the silver tide before
election you will see Ohio, Indiana
and Michigan roll up majorities for
Bryan" thus spoke one of the best
known sound money Democrats in
Toledo to a Bee. He is an ex-federal
official and manages to keep posted
on national politics.
There was gentleman at the To
ledo club last week. he continued,
''who gave me some interesting. not
to say startling information. will
tell you his name on condition that
you don't publish it." Here he men
toned the name of a prominent gov
ernment official. "This gentleman
has under his official jurisdiction the
state of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan.
He is an out and out gold man, per-
sonal friend of Senator Brice and
close to President Cleveland himself.
For three months past he has per-
sonally visited every town and city of
any Importance in the three states.
He told me that he made it a point
to get all the information possible
and he was in a position to get it-of
the strength of the silver movement
and / want to tell you if his informa-
tion is anywhere near correct, it is all
day with Mr.. Mckinley. He says
that if the election was held to-mor-
row Bryan would carry Ohio by 10000
and Indiana by $4,000. Pingree will
possibly carry Michigan and this may
have some effect in that state. Pin
gree is inclined to the silver craze and
this may help Bryan some. All
through the Upper Peninsula it is
solid for silver"
Did he say anything as to the al
legged decline in the silver move
ment?'
"Yes. / asked him and he said he
had hoped to find change after the
New York speech, but instead Of de-
creasing, it seems to be on the in
crease.
He showed me remarkable array
of figures and these have been for
warded east. 1t is my opinion that
these same figures have had some
thing to do with change of senti-
ment on the part of several promi-
nent New York politicians within the
past few days.n ~u

THE United States ratio is now and
has been for over sixty years 16 to 1,
which makes our silver dollar worth
more to England, France and Germa-
ny than their own silver coins, or
would be at free coinage, their ratio
being Is! to 1. We now use silver
and gold as money at 16 to l. Then
let us demand, which is the money
plank of the Chicago convention, the
mints to be opened to silver and gold
at the present fixed ratio. Let them
be so opened and it will not be twelve
months until our silver dollar in Eng
land will buy more than our gold dol
lar, as it did when we had free coin
age. Vote for Bryan and Meekison.

IT'S all fol de roll for the gold stan
dard advocates to tell the people that
if we had free coinage of silver the
country would be flooded with silver,
for intelligent people know that the
full capacity of the mints of the
United States is only about 100000
standard silver dollars per month, or
SO, 600, 000 per year. AS we have near
population of 70,0O0,OO0, if the
mints therefore were run to their full
capacity only about soc per cs pita
could be coined. That don't look
much like burdening the people with
silver, now does it The cry of
flooding the country with silver is
simply q great big bugaboo set up
by the gold people.

Out For BRYAN.

Frank HI. Cooper, of the big firm of
Siegel, Cooper & Co., of Chicago and
New York, the largest retail firm in
the world, has declared openly for
free silver.
Il can't see anything but good to
result from the free coinage of sill
yer," said Mr.. Cooper. True, it will
benefit the mine owner; it will also
benefit the miners and the west. 1t
will give the farmer money; it will
make better prices for farm products;
it will make, the farmer buyer in
our markets.
"Our currency is not expensive
enough for the demands of the peo-
pie. France has $40 per capita of
money in circulation, and its people
are prosperous and happy. We have
$40 per capita. We need more money
and free coinage of silver will put an
end to business stagnation. Our fac
tories are closed and our artisans and
merchants are out Of work. More
money will make higher prices, bet
ter demand for goods and revival
of prosperity.
Talking of free silver, our mints
could not turn out over 10000, ,0O(
per year-less than one dollar tc
every inhabitant. Would that flood
| the country2 1t would restore prices
confidence and resuscitate business.

THE Republican leaders and gold
men tell you that silver dollar is
now redeemed in gold dollar or
with gold, and that that is the reason
it buys as much as gold dollar. Ask
him for the proof and he has none.
No silver dollar is redeemable in gold.
1t is as good as a gold dollar, because
it is stamped a United States dollar.
What the people contend now is, that
there is not enough of them, and they
are going to vote to have more of the
white metal stamped U. s. dollars.
They are going to vote to this end for
Bryan for President and Meekison
for Congress.

THE Republican managers were un'
able to find an orator in their own
party able to answer Bryan's great
New York speech and were com
PEELED to hire Bourke Cochran, a
bolting Democrat, to tackle the job.
Bourke has been living in England
for a year or more and has imblbed
English ideas to such an extent that
it is said he intends giving up his
American citizenship to become a
real Britisher as soon as this CAM
paign ends and he pockets the $780,,
900 which the gold combine are to
pay him for his speeches. 1t is need
less to say that he failed to answer
Bryan. His address was confined to
abuse and efforts to convince labor
ing men that they are more prosper.

history of the nation.
