means constant employment of idle
labor?
Thus we see, out OF their own mouths
are they convicted. They don't want
farms to increase in value, they don't
want dollar-wheat, they don't want to
invest their money in business, they
don't want labor fully employed. But
they do want cheap farms, that they may
gobble them up with their mortgages !;
they do want 50-cent wheat, that they
may buy twice rs much with their inter
est money collected off these same mort
cages !; they do want to loan their money,
and receive their interest without exer-
ton or risk; they do want labor idle,
that they may dictate starvation wages TO
the few that are fortunate enough to get
employment at any price.
In the face Of all these admitted facts,
they have the eifrontery to ask laboring
men to forge their own letters and en-
slave themselves by voting the Republ-
can ticket. Shall Sllylock have his pound

Mr.. EDITOR We hear a lot said about
standards OF value. l con tend there is
no such thing as standard OF value
when applied to money. In view OF the
fact that the number OF dollars there are
in circulation is what regulates the pur-
chasing power OF dollar, when it is
plentiful it presses prices up and times
are good. as the saying goes, and when it
is scarce prices fall and you hear howl
all over the country about hard times.
Money is standard OF payment, fixed
and immutable. No matter how much
OF your labor or the products of your
labor you have to give for dollar, when
you get that dollar it only pays dollar
Of debt. How many people are there
here in Aberdeen who bought city prop.

balance, and after paying interest for

or, in other words, went in debt when
the money tide was in, and are forced to
go out Of debt when the money tide is
out? The same can be said OF the farm
ers all over the country. The mortgages
are being foreclosed and their homes are
taken from them.
The legalized power OF the dollar to
draw interest is the great robber of our

cause the dollar is a dead, inanimate
piece OF matter, utterly destitute of the
power OF increase; and when you give it
the power to draw interest, you give it the
power to disturb our business, to bank

rob labor Of its just rewards. If you loan

become hundred and ten, for it re-
mains hundred whether lying in the
bank vault or circulating from hand to

constantly demands an increase in the
volume OF money. When the volume OF
money is steadily increasing money
seeks investment in industrial enterprise,
but when it is shrinking it hides away
and only seeks investment in interest

behind the bond. What prudent man
would put money into an enterprise when
he expected that in few years the

General Grant, in speaking OF the re-.
sumption OF specie payments, said "The
way to resume is to resume" They re-
sumed, and the bugaboos which had
been frightening the financiers failed to
materialize. For twenty years this
country has been trying to take steps
toward re-monetization OF silver. but
have never yet got up sufficient courage
to at one step re.monetize. Perhaps,
after all, the way to re-monetize is to re.
monetize, and if the fears Of the financiers
are no more realized than after the re-.
sumption of specie payment, then will
all be well.

MIR. EDITOR 81 In conversation with
many Of the advocates OF the gold stand.
ard policy hear it stated that the sue
cess OF the free silver party will bring
staSnation to business, by driving gold
out OF circulation and causing the hoard
ing OF money, instead OF the free circula-
ton OF the same in the channels of trade.

such assertions than out of their own
mouths. and quote the following from a
recent issue of Mr.. Dana's paper, the
New York Sun. Speaking of the pos

ment, he says:
"The owners of real estate and tangi-
BILE personal property will neither lose or
gain by any alteration in the money
standard. Hence every one who has
money at his disposal can protect him
self against loss through free silver by
converting his money into land, houses
and merchandise OF various kinds. IT,
besides, he borrows more money, and
uses it for the same purpose, he will
make profit on the transaction at the
expense OF the man from whom he byl-
rows. Under the reign OF silver at Is
to farm or a house and lot now worth
$4,000 will be worth 100000 and a
bushel OF wheat now selling for 50 cents
will sell for Il dollar, and sugar, coffee,
tea and similar articles will advance in
the same proportion"
Thus we see Mr.. Dana, that stauncll
advocate Of the gold standard, advising
his readers, in case free coinage Of silver
wins, to buy land, houses, and merchan-
disc Of various kinds; to borrow money
and invest it in business. Would this
state OF affairs be any calamity to the
country? DO they expect the farmers TO
support the gold ticket when they are
assured by both parties that the success
OF the silver cause will double the value
OF all his products and OF his farm; or
the laboring man, when he is assured
that the election OF Bryan, and the sue
cess Of the silver cause, will create a new

ment in this state.
To the Democratic party OF the State OF
Washington.
Greeting The regularly elected repre-.
sentatives Of the Democratic party Of the
state oil Washington, in convention as
sembled at the city OF Elensburg, in the
interest OF reform, have effected union
with what are known and designated as
the Peoples Party and the Free Silver
Republican Party, and have placed a
ticket in the field worthy OF the support
OF all the people regardless OF past party
affiliations, and to which every Democrat
should give his enthusiastic and unquali-
fed support to the end that the principles
OF the Chicago platform OF 1896 shall be
carried out and the election OF that cham.
pion OF the people. William Jennings
Bryan, for president, assured.
By that UNANIMOUSLY partisan legislation
OF the Republican party law has been
placed upon the statute books Of the state
whereby union OF the reform forces is
prevented and their amalgamation and
consolidation thwarted by allowing only
recognized" political parties to place a
ticket in the field thereby preventing a
combination OF the names in one ticket
and compelling the reform forces OF the
state to chose, if they would act with
safety, one Of the names OF the recognized
political parties for the name of the ticket
to be certified to the secretary Of the state.
Believing that the election OF the national
ticket is OF supreme importance and the
principles involved Of more moment than
anything else, we have been compelled
as patriotic citizens to be liberal and have
therefore consented that this ticket shall
be known and designated upon the official
ballot as the Peoples Party" ticket.
The statute law OF this state makes this
step necessary, and for the sake OF union
with the reform elements Of this state We
make this concession. With William
Jennings Bryan for president, and Arthur
Sewall for vice-president, as our national
standard bearers, and with that cham
pon Of the people and foe Of corporate
greed James Hamilton Lewis for con.
gress; with that incorruptible jurist John
Il. Reavis 10: judge OF the supreme court !;
with that native son OF Washington Gwin
Hicks for public printer, and with those
sterling Dem ocrats T. n. Cation and |. n.
Maxwell for electors, together with the
great principles involved in their election,
we call upon every Democrat to rally to
the support OF the entire union ticket and
insure its triumphant election; and we
pledge you that the UNANIMOUSLY partisan
features OF the election law producing this
confusion shall be repealed.
BY order OF Democratic State Convention.
