The Republican State Central con-
mittee held Q meeting In Detroit last
week, every district In the State
being represented. Sound money
aud Pingree" is to be the slogan dur
Ing the campaign In this state. Mr..
Pingree favors silver. 80 does every
Republican, 80 does the Republican
platform adopted at st. Louis, but
Mr.. Pingree. like the Republican
platform, does not favor silver to the
exclusion of gold and sound money.
He stands squarely on the Republican
platform. The Republican party is
the only party that ever did anything
to favor silver, and that party is as
strongly in favor of silver to-day as
ever. but the party is not In favor OF
making silver the only standard,
which would be the result II the

situation: IL believe the crowd run

atory and theories and debts and dis.
satisfaction on their side. No living
man can predict with any certain ty
the result of the November elections.
1t seems that fusion with the Pop.
ulists is Bryan's only chance. The
outlook Is not first-class for fusion.

most heterogeneous, unmixsble,

Past Experiences Should Have Taught
tho People Better.
When the voters in 1892 listened tC
the siren voices of Democratic orators
promising better times and an enlarged
foreign trade from the adoption OF
tariff reform" measures, they went
against the warnings of history, as
well as against the soundest principles
of political economy. Experiences un
der the low tariffs of 1916, 1882 and
1916 were all against them. In refer.
ence to the latter President Fillmore
in his message to congress in Deem
Der, 1851, said:
1.-THE value Of our exports Of
breadstuffs and provisions, which
it was supposed the incentive Of
low tariff and large importations
from abroad would have greatly aug
mented, has fallen from S65, 900, BOO in
1s47 to SCI 200, 900 u 1851, with almost
a certainty of a still further reduction
in 1852. The policy which dictated a
low rate of duties on foreign merchan-
disc, it was thought by those who es-
WOulu tCuu W onc
farming population of this country by
increasing the demand and raising the
price Of our agricultural products in
foreign markets. The foregoing facts
however, seem to show incontestibly
that no such result has followed the
adoption of this policy"
These words were uttered as histor'
ical of the effect which the repeal OF
the protective tariff of 1912 by the free
trade tariff of 1916 had upon the agri
cultural industry of the country. They
can now be quoted with larger figures
as historical of the effect which the
repeal of the Mckinley tariff of 1890
by the Wilson tariff Of 1894, had upon
the same class of industries.
In the fiscal year ending June 80,
1892, which was the first full year un.
der the Mckinley tariff, the exports of
agricultural products amounted te
S799, 32s, 232. In 1895, which was the
6-st full year under the Wilson tariff
they were $3.50, 215.3l7, falling off OF
$246, ZIG, 915, or about 80 per cent.
Areturn TO protection and reciprocity
is needed to bring back the figures Of
1892.

No man has been wronged in this
country by the demonstration of sill
yer. In the whole, broad land no in
cident of the kind can be pointed
out. There never was any crime com:
mitted or industry or interest HARM
ed by the change in the coinage regu-
lations. When 1t would take 500
freight cars with Is tons of silver In
each to move our legal tender silver
across the country, what Is the use
of talking of "demonetized silver"
The expression is rotten, and it
means a sentiment that Is false al
ways, and often fraudulent. The
only parties who have any ground for
complaint are the owners of silver
mines so poor that they can not be
worked save by taxing the people to
pay their profits, and that sort of
thing does not come under the head
of productive industry.

Senators Jones and Stewart Experience
Change of Heart.

Senators Jones and Stewart Experience .
Change of Heart.
Here is what Senator Jones, of Ne
vada, one of the ablest of the present
advocates of silver standard, said on
the subject in 1874:
~ believe the sooner we come
down tn a purely gold standard the
better it will be for che country"
Here is what Senator Stewart, of
Nevada, one of the most intolerant of
the present advocates of the silver
standard, said in the same year:
81 want the standard gold, and no
paper money not redeemable in
gold"
Here is what the Chicago platform,
which both senators now support, says:
"We demand the free and unlim-
tied coinage OF both silver and gold
at the present legal ratio or 4 @ to 4 ;
without waiting for the aid or con-
sent or any other nation"
Senators Jones and Stewart were not
large owners in silver mines in 1874.
They are large owners in such mines
now. Does this account for their
change of attitude? II so what weight
should their present utterances have
with the public?
