the arguments against them. Now
they have not only the afguments but
the cold and cIimmy facts against
them. They started ont sonie time

OPINION or JAMES G. BLAINE.

AS there are u great many all
mirers OF the late Jamcs G.. Blaine
in Tazewell county who are at pres.
eht engaged in calling Democrats
"Anarchists, ,""Populists,n and 9th
or pet names, we publish the lol.
lowing showing the position occu-
pied by their former idol: 81 believe
the struggle now going on in this
country and in other countries for
a single gold standard would, if
successful, produce widespread dis
aster in and throughout the com
mercicl world. The destruction of
silver as money, and establishing
gold as the sole unit of value, must
have ruinOus effect OH all forms
OF property except those invest
ments which yield % fixed return
in money. Those would be enor.
mOusly enhanced in value and
would gain disproportionate and
unfair advantage over every other
species of property. If, as the
most reliable statistics affirm, there
arc nearly $1,000, 5000 of coin or
bullion i'll the world, very equally
divided between gold and silver,
II is impossible to strike silver out
OF existence as money without re.
suits that will prO'e distressing to
millions and utterly disastrous to
tens of thousands. | believe gold
and silver coin to he the money of
the constitutions; indeed, the mon.
ey of the American people anterior
to the constitutions, which the great
organic law recognized as quite
independent of its own existence.
No power was conferred on congess
to declare either metal should not
be money. Congress has, there
fore, in my judgment, no power to
dcmonetizc either. If, therefore,
silver has been demonetized, am
in favor Of remOnctizing it. If it's
coinage has been prohibited, 1 am
in favor of ordering it te he resum.
ed. l am i'll favor of having it en-
larged."
