already been apparent in the enhanced
value given to silver.
You may remember as indicatig my
position on this subject that 1 voted
to pass the silver bill in the forty-fifth
and fcrty-sixth congresses over the veto
of President Hayes. I shall be very
glad to write you at any time upon any
subject you may wish to be informed
upon. With me political and economic
questions are conviction, and while l
may not always be right, am always
willing to let those whose suffrages l
seek know exactly what they are. Very
truly, WILLIAM M'KINLEY, JR.
There can be no doubt as to the au-
thenticity of the document for on Tues
day last the San Francisco Examiner
received the following dispatch:
CANTON, Sept. 29.-Major Mckinley
had nothing to say about the published
letter said to have been written by him
to e. S. Perkins six years ago, except
that IL 1T was a true copy of the original
it doubtless expressed his views at the
time.
The Republican candidates chame-
leon record on the money question has
been repeatedly exposed by The Herald.
What Major McKinley's real mind on
the free coinage of silver may be today,
it is not possible without the aid of the
lately invented kymographion to dis
cover but his utterances which are
mortgaged to Hanna & Co. prove that
he has been subjected to a complete
change of heart"
The herald., 1896-10-02

If we call the supporters of Mckinley
Republicans and the supporters of Bry
an Democrats, we observe a remarka-
bic transformation of both parties.
The Republican party, from its earliest
days down to a late period,
was distinguished for it's candid
and deferential treatment of its adver-
saries, and the Democratic party, be-
ginning with the days OF slavery, has
often been much the other way: in fact.
at times quite intolerant. Now. how
ever, things seem to have changed right
about. and the only way to account for
1t is that the parties have become terri
bly, mixed up, and that people are now
influenced more by living issues than
by dead party ties. Another thing that
has been observed is that the Mckinley
men have all become prophets, while
there Is not a single logician among
them ALL Like the prophets OF old, they
do not need facts upon which to base
their prognostications, and like those
same sacred prophets. their forebodings
are mainly of evil and of great calami-
ties. The chief of these prophets is Mr..
Mckinley himself, and he is not slow
to ease the public mind by making the
disasters depend upon the election of
his adversary and his own defeat. 1t
is consoling to know that calamity can
be so easily avoided-simply by voting
for Mr.. Mckinley! The whole danger
is in the success of the Bryan Democrat
ic party! C.

THE POWER OF CONGRESS

Our staid and serious evening contem-
porary. the Express, pays its compli-
ments to The Herald and wonders why
on earth we were so fatuous as to print
the constitution of the United States, in
which nowhere appears a declaration
making sixteen ounces of silver equal to
one ounce OF gold. And then in the in
nocency of it's heart, it reproduces two
sections Of Article L. of the constitution
as follows
Section s. The congress shall have
power (5) to coin money, regulate
the value thereof, and of foreign coins,
and fix the standard of weights and
measures.
Section 10. "a No state shall enter
into any treaty, alliance or confedera-
ton, grant letters of marque and repri-
sal,coin, money, emit bills of credit, make
anything but gold and silver coin ten
der in payment of debts, pass any bill
of attainder, ex-post facto law, or law
impairing the obligation of contracts, or
grant any title of nobility"
If our contemporary will re-read Sec
ton and note the words ito coin money
and regulate the value thereof" some
Illumination may come to it. Mr.. Bryan
contends that the United States con-
gress has the right to coin money-that
is silver and gold-and regulate the
value Of that money Wherefore, the
congress having decreed that 412k
grains of silver, when stamped by our
mints with the United States insignia.
shall constitute one dollar, that fiat is
one from which there is no appeal. The
constitution endows congress (not the
secretary of the treasury nor any for
eign country with the power to regulate
the VALUE of the MONEY it COINS.
1t cannot regulate the value of its notes
its paper promises to pay money-that
would be an absurdity. 1t is only
MONEY, l. e. coin, the value of which IT.
can regulate, and it is the only money
which any state shall have the right to
make a legal tender. Open the mints to
silver and the congressional fiat fixing
the value of the silver dollar in its rela-
tion to gold will still be found as poten-
tial as ever, backed as it is by the eagis
Of the constitution and seventy millions
of the most Industrious wealth pro-
ducers in the world.
The herald., 1896-10-02

course deprecated in value, though
there has been great loss by the liqui-
dation with the lesser grades of gold Sc
curities.
If silver should be restored TO it's form
er position it would then be at par with
gold, and the importer of grain would
not then be able to buy silver cheap
with which to exchange for the products
or the silver standard countries, which
would result in raising the price of the
leading agricultural products to the nor
NAL price. The British and European
markets having to pay more, those who
produce would, of course, get more.
The United States has been the chief
sinner. 1t has done the real injury to sill
YER; so you must remonetize it before
you get any substantial cooperation
in this country. England is certainly not
going to pull your chestnuts out of the
11re, and things move too slow here for
you to place any dependence upon Eng
land until you have first restored the
law to the status ante 1873 and come
here with clean hands and substantial
case.
England will take no responsibility
whatever in leading the way either
Jointly or otherwise; so if anything is to
be done for the restoration of silver to
the position it ought to occupy, the
amelioration of prices and the saving of
the debtor. 1t Is for the United States
alone to lead. The rest will soon follow.

MILITARY POSTS

The reception of General Miles. com
mander of the United States army. re-
news interest in suggestion first made.
we believe, by this officer. The sugges-
tion was that the army posts should be
reduced in number and the army con-
centrated in posts of strategic value.
Such posts would be of necessity at rail-
road centers. Los Angeles would be the
army post for the southwest, being the
railroad point of strategy for the largest
territory. 1t is at once the best point
from which to use force on the South
California coast, on the Mexican boun-
dairy at San Diego and along the South
ern Pacific railroad line on the Colorado
and covers by transportation lines more
Indian country than any point in this
vast district. 1t is eminently healthy
place for man and beast and the cheap
est point at which an army corps can be
provided for.
The main objects sought in the pro-
posed concentration were reduced cost
of maintenance and increased efficiency
of the different arms of the service by
the opportunity to drill in large bodies
and to use the different arms together.
This would surely improve the effective
force of the army
Besides these reasons there is the ad-
ditional one that the Soldiers home, in
large tract of land, is already Located
here and as time goes on will come to be
more used by the active military force
of the country.
The old soldiers would appreciate an
army post near them.

AN "OLD LETTER"

General E. B. T. Finley on Tuesday
at Akron, Ohio, unearthed and disclosed
a letter written by Major Mckinley to
Hon. E. S. Perkins of Weymouth, Me-
dina county, in the fall of 1890. The doc
ument promises to still further add to
the embarrassment of the Canton
chameleon. Mr.. Perkins, who was at
that time a representative of the Ohio
legislature, had written to Major Nc
Kinley regarding his position on the sill
yer question. The majors reply was as
follows:
Committee on Ways and Means, House
of Representatives Washington, De-
cember 27, 1890.
Hon. T.. S. Perkins. Weymouth, Ohio:
Dear Sir-I have been so busy for the

THE GRANTS ON SILVER.

An exchange say>~-.hat Ulysses S.
Grant, jr., in voting for free silver coin
age in the st. Louis Republican conven-
tion, and Jesse r. Grant, in openly es-
pousing the Populist cause, show little
gratitude to the party which so honored
their distinguished father; ai-d that It
might also be said that they manifest
little respect for the opinions of the
president whose pen was as facile and
as effective in defending the nations
honor by striking down imitation and
every form of debased currency as his
sword had been in defense of the union
on many battlefield. They have GER
tainly shown their fathers spirit in
thinking and acting for themselves
Can anyone point to a single sentence
in General Grants messages or writings
against free silver? He Never said that
silver was a fiat money, and no one has
any right to charge him with so saying.

UTTER DECENTRALIZATION OF THE
REPUBLICAN LEADERS,

Editor Herald: The attack by the
Times has undoubtedly added 500 votes
to H. T. Hazard. The reported action
of Mr.. Bradner Lee will cause every
Silver Republican, without exception,
to vote for Hazard and probably will
cause hundreds who had previously in
tended to vote for Mckinley electors
to act differently. There is not a doubt
that Hazard will lead the poll of all
the candidates for the judgeship, and
his vote will exceed 1880. He is as
certain to be elected as that he is alive
on that day. McLachlan is equally GER
tain of defeat by at least 5000.
The decentralization and disorganiza-
ton of the Republicans is manifest in
two ways. The chairman of the open
ing meeting, Henry 7. Gage, who poses
on all occasions as the quintessence of
Republicanism, is actually asking Re-
publicans as personal favor to vote
for one of the leading fusionists. Mr..
Bradner Lee should turn his eye that
way and rule on that treason. Very re-
spectfully. B.H.

WHO IS UDELL?

Editor Herald: An article appeared in
the Express, the date of which do not
now remember, and one also in the Call
of September Sth, written by person
calling himself Alva Udell in which he
attempts to SANDER our candidate for
congress. Mr. Charles Barlow, but in
his tongue or pen there is no slander,
as he is not man but a brute utterly de-
void of principle, and has no more honor
in his composition than he has hair in
the palm of his hand. This man was ex-
PEELED and ordered out of the Peoples
party two years ago for conduct he was
guilty of. He is well known here, and
Go not know of any one that would be-
Eeve him under oath. Now, Mr.. Editor,
i have not entered into the details of the
articles he wrote for the two papers
mentioned, as no doubt the majority of
our citizens have read them, but have
written this article to let our citizens
see what kind of a thing it is that has
attempted to blemish the character of
so noble man as Charles A. Barlow, a
man who Is one of Natures noblemen,
and who, If elected to represent us in
congress, will be an honor to the people
who have sent him there.
