The eagle. (Silver City, N.M.) 1894-1???, 1896-01-22
The Senator from Missouri Makes a
Great Speech.
He Shows that the Republicans arc as
badly Divided as the Democrats
on the Silver Question.

In a recent speech in the United
States senate, Senator George q. Vest,
of Missouri, said:
"We are now told that the Democratic
party is hopelessly divided upon the
question OF the free coinage OF silver.
In what better condition are our Repub-
lican brethren? They dare not take the
issue into their own ranks in regard to
the free coinage of silver because they
know it would dsintegrate and divide
their party hopelessly. They passed the
Sherman act to retain the votes of the
Silver Republicans from the western
states, and all the world knows it.
They afterwards were compelled from
the stress OF public opinion in the
northern and middle states to repeal
the law. Today they hold control of the
committees in the senate on account OF
the same potent influence inside OF their
own organization. The senator from
Colorado, Mr.. Teller, frankly and in his
own manly and emphatic way, told us
the other day that ii the Committee on
Finance had not been organized in favor
OF free coinage, no committees would
have been appointed and no chairman
ships made in the senate.
mo declaration could be more en-
phatic and distinct. Now the struggle
OF our republican friends is to evade
that issue, il possible, and not to per-
NIT the general public OF the United
States to ascertain that they are hope
lessly divided, as they claim and as
concede, the democratic party to be.
Whatever the democratic party may
have omitted to do, it has never enacted
any law which it was compelled to come
before the people of the United States
and admit to be vicious legislation, that
ought not to have been placed upon the
statute books, We are honestly divided
in regard to the free coinage OF silver,
and it is tribute 10 the personal integ-
rity of the individuals composing the
democratic party that manhood and
patriotism still exists in public life that
hose OF us who entertain an opinion
d,.terent from the President oi the

coinage Of silver.

coinage Of silver.
81 admit that the financial influence OF
the world is against silver, and, as a
logical consequence, capitalists were
able to influence this country, and, If
possible, wonld intimidate it whenever
they found that there WAS any approach
TO free silver coinage. They tolerated
the act in 1878, but when the senator
from Ohio gave his great name, world
wide as financier, to the Sherman act
OF 1890, the capitalists of Europe said
that the United States was going to a
silver basis and they were determined
to withdraw their confidence from it.
Who doubts this proposition todav'
Look at the condition of the country
now.
"The other day the chief executive
issued proclamation in regard to for
eign affairs, asserting the Monroe doe
trine' and it was met with enthusiastic
acclamation from all sections and classes
OF the country. What was the response
from Great Britain? We heard the hos
tile guns even in this chamber, and the
tail of the British lion was twisted in
corner OF this chamber until the royal
animal howled like whipped cur. But
did England rpond with shot and
shell and saler stroke AID battleships?
Oh, no. She responded with small pei
lets OF paper called American securities
that were poured upon the New York
market. A panic was created. Stocks
fell, and now look at the sequel. The
president of the United States thought
proper and rightly, and patriotically--
and what | complain of is that he did
not come to the conclusion before-t0
offer to the highest bidder the bonds the
government which he is about to sell to
maintain the gold reserve.
"Two syndicates had been formed in
New York, made up of capitalists. 1t
is said in this mornings papers that
one of those syndicates, with Mr.. Nor
gan at ito head had boarded $400, 900,
600 OF gold. What is the answer to the
presidents proclamation. Wall street
is dissatisfied. Wall street will not
have it. The syndicate has boarded
gold and we cannot have popular loan
in the United States. Could anything
be more humllating? Could anything
be more in shape OF national dishonor?

announce it.
1--WE are engaged now, all the people
OF this country, in an irrepressible con-
fiict as irrepressible as that which
marched the armies of the north aud
south in the Civil War. | trust the
arbitrament may not be by violence.
| hope and believe that it will not be,
but the conflict is just as irrepressible
and must be fought out to the last ex-
tremity, between those OF us who be-
lieve in retaining silver as a standard
money OF redemption and those who
believe in single gold standard and
the exclusion OF silver and its usr only
as fractional coin. Al attemts TO evade
this issue are impossible. The sooner it
is settled the better for the tranquility
of the country, the better for he public
life OF the land. Those wh) attempt to
evSde it and who by the use OF cant
prases such as "sound money" and the
declaration that "this lunacy has passed
away" are guilty of absolute public
crime, il intelligent men, when they as
sume that the vast millions who be-
leve in the Tree coinage OF silver will
ever concede that they are either dis
honest or incompetent to decide that
question"
Continuing, the senator said:
81 admit the proposition that the
civilized world is today under control OF
the gold man. No man can visit Europe
without knowing it. Go to Germany
and you will find all the bankers and
capitalists and privileged classes in
favor OF the single gold standard. Go
to England and, OF course, they are for
the single gold standard-I mean the
privileged classes, though there is large
bimetallic party in the British parlia-
ment. Go to Austria, and you will find
it struggling to get back to the gold
standard after having used a aredeemable
paper money up to 1891, and in France
there is the same condition. a
"Even there the people are opposed to
single gold standard, and the bankers
and capitalists are in favor Of it. Go
to the great monied centers and you will
find all the great capitalists denouncing
the "silver craze" and the "silverluna-
tics" Go out among the people at large
and you will be profoundly astonished, in
the west and south particularly, to find
