MISGUIDED MANUFACTURERS

Albert A. Pope, the bicycle manufac-
turer, is very much given to writing
for the papers Some of his letters.
such as those on the subject of Good
Roads" are good, and some are
wretehed. The following, just received
by The Herald from him, belongs in
the latter category:
Hartford, Conn, October l, 1896.
Dear Sir-The currency question of
today is, it seems TO me, the most i'm
portant national issue that has arisen
since the close of our civil war The
question squarely put is, Shall we
have good or bad money?" though,
through the sophistry of skillful agi-
tators, it has been so twisted as to
read, Shall we have a gold standard
or free coinage of silver?" l want a
dollar that, even when melted into
bullion, will buy a dollars worth of
produce in the open markets of the
world, and this is the only way we can
have non changeable unit of value,
just as the yard is a standard and not
an elastic measure.
Experience is always the best
teacher. and experience has demon
strated the fact that all monetary val
ues have been referred TO gold as a
standard, whether in gold countries. or
in regions where the free coinage of
silver has been legally established.
Fifty-three cents worth of the white
metal stamped at the minis of the
United States is nothing more or less
than a United States demand note TO
pay to the bearer forty-seven cents
plus the market value of the coin. No
decree of any nation on earth can Gre
ate value. A man in business life is
worth what his assets will bring and
not the face value of the notes he may
have circulated in the market.
II, with the limited coinage of silver,
its value, relative to gold, has con-
SANITY decreased, it is certainly log
ical 10 conclude that under the free
coinage of silver there would be a still
greater disparity of values.
The unlimited use of silver as a coin
would. in my judgment bring about
the greatest financial calamity that
has ever visited the United States and
would be followed by distress among
all classes such as we have never seen.
Il would bear very heavily upon the
workingman, and cause a gradual rise
in the price of necessities; nor would
it make proportional advance in the
pay of the wage-earner.
We are running our factories and
have on our payroll over 1000 men,
because we believe that the common
sense Of the American people will
bring about the right solution of this
question, and that the poll of next
November will demonstrate this fact.
If 1 thought Bryan would be elected
on the free silver platform, / should
feel it my duty to close down our fac
tories tomorrow. thus throwing out of
employment hundreds of worthy men
by a stop which would be necessary to
protect ourselves, for we believe that.
with the free silver party in power. we
have enough stock made up to last a
long time.

GROVER ON THE BAY.

A soldier of the legion lay dying in Bill
vile;
There was lack of golden money when
the doctor sent his bill;
But a Buccaneer stood by him as his life
blood ebhed away,
And a Palmer from the holy land heard
what he had to. say.
The dying soldier faltered as he took the
Palmers hand
And he said: This Bryan avalanche is
hard to understand;
Take message to my comrades who are
beaten in the fray,
For was geared for Grover-for Grover
on the bay!
Tell my brothers and companions, when
they count the Bryan votes
And pay their sad election bets in hats
and overcoats,
That | fought the battle bravely and ere
the day was done
Full many a goldbug corpse lay pale be-
meath the Bryan sun.
"And some were old and had been found
in many fruitless wars
The death wounds on their golden breasts
the last of many scars:
And some were young. and suddenly saw
Palmer fade away,
And one had fished with Grover-with
Grover on the bayl
"And if a voter seek your cash, ask you
in my name,
To look on him suspiciously and tighter
hold the same;
And to hang the old sword in its place.
before you lose the day
The sword 1 hacked for Grover-for
Grover on the bay.
And the. silver moon rose grandly, and
brilliantly looked down
Upon the Billville battlefield and ruined
goldbug town;
Yes, brightly on the scene of death she
shed her silver ray,
And also took in Grover-even Grover on
