THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

The following article from the Home
Market Bulletin. published at BOSTON,
is the best argument for the free coin
age Of silver. without being intended
as such that has appeared. The
argument OF the silver men that
the increase in the value of
the gold dollars has decreased
the price OF commodities is adj
mitted in the statement that if the in
crease in the production of gold
continues, it viii very soon raise the
price of commodities, the same as
would the reconciliation of silver"
Every reader should cut this out, and
read it to any friend who says he does
not believe that the dethronement of
silver has increased the value OF gold
and decreased the price Of all products.
The Bulletin says:
A new method Of extracting gold
from other metals and the rock and
sand i'm which it is found, known as
the choicest process, IS making many
mines profitable which formerly could
not BE worked, and experts think it
will increase the worlds production of
gold this year by at least so per cent.
The high price and great demand for
gold, owing to the dethronement of
silver as standard money and TO the
progress of industry had already
stimulated gold mining and during
the last two years the increased out
put has been large, though not large
enough to noticeably decrease the
price. This new process bids fair to
swell the product of our own mines
to $75,000,00o a year and probably to
higher figure.
This will, if continued, very soon
raise the prices of commodities the
same as would the reconciliation OF
silver. and while it may not settle the
silver question it may give it new
form. Stranger things have happened
than TO see the wheat growers OF the
west insisting upon the gold standard
as the only honest money, while the
bankers and creditors OF London will
be wondering what they can do to pre-
vent the great depreciation Of gold and
therefore of debts

HOPE AND ENTHUSIASM REVIVE.

Solicitor Pou shows that he under
stands the political situation in North
Carolina when he says that with free
silver candidates for President and
Governor, the people viii give the Dem
ocratic candidates Unprecedented ma
iorities. He says that the Democracy
Of Johnston are full of enthusiasm, and
ready for the fray.
Since it became apparent that the free
silver men would control the National
convention, Democrats everywhere
who had become respondent have been
full Of hope and cnthuiasm. Those who
live in the country, or who come in con
tact with the country people can feel
the difference in the political atmos-
phere.
If the Populists fuse with the Repub-
lean goldbugs and straddlers, they
will lose all the honest men in the
party; if they keep in the middle Of ths
road, they viii be third in the race, ana
If they come Back to the Democracy
they will aid i'll victory for real BIZ
metallism that viii rejoice the hearts
Of all silver men.
