FREEDOM.


Freedom is the fundamental
condition Of all healthful progress.
The noblest conflicts Of history
have been in one form or another
against the restriction of freedom.
In every age prejudice, privilege
and power have sought to limit
this divine right of man, and in
every age its martyrs have fallen
victims to their devotion.
Yet as one by one its triumphs
have been gained the steps Of pro-
gress have been marked for man
kind. There can be no real pro-
gress without freedom.

MEN Blame Us

for the bitterness Of our language and
the personality of our attacks. 1t re-
suits from our position. The great
mass of the people a neyer be made
to stay and argue a question. They
must be made to feel it through the
hides of their idols. When you have
launched your spear into the rhinoceros
hide of a Webster or a Benton every
Wing and Democrat feels it. 1t is on
this principal that every reform must
take for its text the mistakes of great
menu
Such were the words of Wendell
Phillips, the great Abolitionist. The
same is true to-day. But few citizens
have the knowledge and realize the
tremendous results of the free coinage
Of silver and the carrying out of the
Democratic platform. Gu its decision
rests the result whether government
of the people, by the people and for the
people" shall perish from the earth and
this nation drift into . monied oiigachy
and d~espotism as bad as that In Russia,
or whether the crowned heads of Eu-
rope shall fall in the next half century.
The gold standard is a worse enemy TO
u nation than if ell the fleets Of Eu-
rope were bombardiDg our shores.
Some think this an idle dream OF a
frenzied Imagination but it is not aud
no attack is too severe to turn back
such a revolution and restore the money
of the constitution. This Is no sham
batter over Z per cent OF tariff tax but
a question which has to be met with
your manhood al the ballot box or the
lives Of many in the future.

Alleged Redundancy Of Money.

1t is true shat there is now a greater
quantity Of money in banks and vaults
than can be safely invested, and inter.
est rates Are also low; therefore there
may be said to be redundancy.
The reason Of this redundancy, how
ever, Is because people do not wish to
put their wealth into commodities or
products Of labor, because such are now
declining in price, have been steadily
declining since silver demonstration in
1894, and must continue to decline
under the gold standard; but they pre-.
fer to convert their wealth into money,
even without drawing interest, rather
than invest it in commerce on v dc.
clining MARKET
In going to the gold standard In 1873
4 we had to contract the volume Of
currency. This produced stagnation
in business, and with %stagnation In
business, sensible men, In order to save
themselves from loss, took their wealth
out of commerce and put it in the shape
Of money and are keeping it in banks
or safety deposit vaults. Should we
contract our currency further, for in
stance by cancellation Of greenbacks,
as Wall Street Is now clamoring to do,
we would thereby further paralyze bust
ness 80 that none would dare borrow
money for commercial purposes, neith'
or would any owner OF money dare to
lend it for commercial purposes, and
with the then lesssned quantity Of
money, the redundancy of idle money
would be more acute than now; and 80
on dd intinitun, until we might reduce
the quantity to S1.00 per capita, and
then there would be a redundancy, al
the people would be out of business and
slaves, and there would be q few lords,
and slaves are irresponsible and cannot
use capital
The only way to get rid CT redundan.
cy of idle money is to increase tile
quantity sufficient to increase the price
Of commodities and labor, so there will
be an inducement for people to engage
In commercial enterprises, and all re.
dundant money-even though the guam.
tity be doubled-wlll disappear, as there
will be a demaud for 1t In commercia
activity.at q profit. Impossible chance
for prosperity can exist under the gold
standard.
Most gold standard men now confess
the utility OF the double standard
known as Bimetallism-which is the
unlimited coinage of gold and silver.
but are nov resorting to the argument
that it will not be wise to rs-establish
it unless we get Europe to..do likewise
by international agreement.
This argument is the last hope OF the
gold standardist of fcoling the peo'
pie into voting for delay, and delay is
| simply a perpetuation Of the present
| gold standard. No bluffs or threats OF
panics will deceive the people into vot-
Ing in 1896 for a continuation of the
system which has already impoverished
them.

A PATRIOT.

Gov. Altgeld, Of Illinois, the shrewd-
est and foremost leader in the United
States for a free government Of the peo-
pie and against despotlsm and military
rule made the most able and legal
speech Of the campaign in defense Of
free government in New York City
last Saturday evening. He showed
where Cleveland sent troops to Chicago
without authority Of Law when state
troops we're on the ground and there
were no disturbance. He showed where
men had been thrown into jail hum
dreds Of miles from home by al injunc
tion law issued by Judges, and then let
go with no money to get home. He
showed where a court appointed re-
ceivers for a railroad corporation who
reduced the wages Of working men,
then got an injunction from the Court
prohibiting men from quitting work at
their own will. II they did they would
have been thrown into jail. II that Is

mems men and as a convincing proof
the bill for their LOGS has never been
presented for payment to the city as
was done in Pittsburg In 1877.
On request Gov. Altgeld has sent US
a copy OF his reasons for pardoning the
so.called anarchists, and In it he shows
there was no testimony that they threw
a bomb. TheSrouble was caused by
sensational newspaper reports to pre-
judice and poison the public mind. II
they could and dare the big gold bugs

the RECORD arrested for preaching
what they call anarchistic doctrine.

Don't Need Money.

The Republicans are circulating in
this community a campaign document
entitled "Aldredge on free coinage of
silver, from remarks of Hon. Donelson
Gallery, of Louisiana in the U. S. Sem
ate" We hope all farmers get one for
in it is the following gems:
ga farmer may now live for a whole
year on the fat Of the land and never
handle a dollar in money during that
time. He may receive checks for his
crop, deposit them to his credit with a
bank and draw on the bank for what he
owes and spends. Neither he nor the
men who bought his crop had a dollar
in the bank. They only had credit
there. The bank owns the money in
its vaults and its customers simply
have the banks obligation. Bank cred
1t performs precisely the same work as
gold and silver do and they perform 1t
much quicker and more conveniently.
1.-THE more highly enlightened the
world becomes and the greater the Inn
provements in business methods, the
less Necessity there is for the use OF ac-
tive money of any kind. Business is
done on a system of credits without the
use of money, except for ultimate set
Element. 1t. is broadening with the
evolution of man from a lower TO a
higher plane of intelligence.
1.-THE government can no more in
duce people to use money they do not
want than it can induce them to eat
what they do not like.
s'The poor man is not In debt. lie
never had a chance 10 get in debt.
Every wage Garner belongs to the credi-
tor class, THAT is somebody owes him].
No one would be benefited by 16 to
coinage except the debtor lone who
oyesl class. Even the mine owner
would not"
Gov. Griggs told the farmers this at
Woodstown, Salem and Quinton. We
hope he will keep on. How do you
relish it farmers, being told such Il doc
trine whom you pay a salary of $4,000
a year, equal to 10000 bushels of wheat
at 50c. a bushel and $500 barrels of
sweet potatoes at 40c. a barrel. OF
course he does not want his salary TO
buy less of your products. Remember
bank credit costs you big interest
which the banker wants. Plenty of
cash money costs no interest. Which
do you prefer, more cash by free silver
or the English credit systemp The
banker wants the government to give
the money to them for nearly nothing
and compel all citizens to pay them
interest to get it. That English sys-
tenn won't work in this country.
