GIVING HIS WHOLE CASE AWAY.
MIR. Crisp Admits That Gold Is the Stand
ard of Value.

Mr.. Crisp Admits That Gold Is the Stand
ard of Value.
In his Atlanta debate with Secretary
Smith ex-Speaker Crisp attempted to
answer the objection CT the sound
money advocates against the 90 cent
dollar by saying: II tell you. my
friends, that do not want the free and
unlimited coinage of silver unless the
bullion in silver dollar is worth as
much as the bullion in a gold dollar
All this rot about cheap money is sub
terfuge of those who are interested in
maintaining the dearest kind OF money"
Mr.. Crisp has for years been clam
oring for free silver on the ground that
gold has increased in value and is too
scarce and dear to serve as money, and
has urged the necessity of having
cheaper money for the people" as
against dear money for the bankers
Yet he now says that he only wants free
coinage under the condition that the
bullion in silver dollar shall be worth
a dollar in gold This is exactly what
Thomas Jefferson favored when he adj"
vised that the ratio between gold and
silver be fixed as nearly as possible at
the commercial value of the two metals
It is what the believers in an honest
dollar have always insisted on. A free
coinage law which should put hun
dred cents worth of silver in each dol
lar would not injuriously affect our pres
emit sound financial system.
But what becomes OF Mr.. Crisp's
promise that under free silver the peo-
pie would have cheap money? If gold
dollar is too dear to be used to measure
values, how would silver dollar which
is worth just as much be any cheaper?
The commercial value Of silver is now
about 80 to 1. IF Mr.. Crisp is honest in
saying that he wants the bullion in q
silver dollar to be worth as much as the
bullion in gold dollar, he would have
to coin the two metals in a 80 to / ratio.
How would that shatter the hated
money power?
Mr.. Crisp warned his Atlanta hearers
against the people who are interested in
maintaining the dearest kind Of money.
When he talks of coming silver dollars
with bullion value equal to gold
dollar, does he not admit that gold is
the standard and that he wants to
have our silver money just as valuable
as gold?

will stand comparison with any of his

There was time in this land of the
tree and the home of the brave when
labor was considered honorable. but
that time has passed, and nowadays
to be connected with laboring man
or one occupying an inferior social
position is shame and reproach.
Matters have come to a pretty pass
when an army officer is compelled to
resign on account of being boycotted
for having married the daughter of a
sergeant, although the lady is edu-
Gated and refined; and when Yale
compells each member of its boat
crew to give an affidavit that
he has never performed manual labor,
in order to be eligible to- participate in
an international race Nothing more

The Missouri Madness.

The Missouri Democratic platform de-
mands the free and unlimited coinage
of silver and gold'' at the ratio Of is
to 1, without waiting for the action or
approval of any other government.
It rests this demand on the assertion
that from the beginning Of the govern
ment, following policy formulated by
Thomas Jefferson and firmly established
by jackson, the Democratic party has
been the party Of bimetallisn. But
what are the facts?
The bimetallism Of Jefferson and
Jackson was based upon coinage ratio
representing the ratio of actual value.
The silver and gold dollars they favored
were worth the same. The bimetal1ism
Of the Missouri convention proposes sill
yer dollars worth about one-half gold
dollar each. The bimetallism Of Democ-
racy was honest. The bimetallism Of the
Missouri platform proposes a swindle Of
30 per cent.
Under existing restrictions we have
the largest and best bimetallism ever
known in any country. We are using
silver equally with gold and more large
~ than any country in the world ever
did when using gold at all. And we are
keeping all these silver dollars on par
with gold. What the Missouri conven-
ton proposes is that we shall abolish
the restrictions that have thus made BIZ
metallism possible, abandon the use Of
gold, reduce the value CT money one
half, cheat all creditors, public and pri-
vate, cut down the purchasing power OF
wages and substitute cheap dollar
recommendation for the honest dollar BIZ
metallism we have.
If there is any method in this mad
ness, it is the method of men bent upon
the ruin of their party. New York

chamber OF commerce." we are told, were
bank presidents.
When considered in the light of that
history which forms one of the most re-
markable pages in our national finances,
and following SO soon after the announce
ment of the report that the president in
tends calling an extra session of congress
during the summer, this visit of Secretary
Carlisle to New York becomes omnibus
and important to the country at large
Terrible disaster came to the American
people shortly following John G. Car
isles visit to New York in the spring of
1898, when a similar conference was held
with the 'leading bankers" 1t was on
April 27. That conference took place at
the residence of George G. Williams, a
"Cleveland Republican" and president of
the Chemical National bank. There were
present nine national bank presidents
Among them was friedrich d. Tappan,
of the Gallatin National bank, known in
the financial world as "the bank dictator
of America" At that time the national
bankers demanded the repeal OF the sill
yer purchase law. The bankers panic
followed. Then there was called an extra
session of congress "to relieve the busl-
ness situation of the country" and repeal
came, but at what disastrous cost!
Largely through the operation of the
conspiracy TIA national banks were
closed during the first eight months OF
1898; thirty-one were closed during the
first week in July and seventy-two during
July of that year. Four hundred million
dollars were withdrawn from circulation
during June and July of 1898 to force
this "object lesson" upon us. This panic
closed the doors of more than 800 manu-
featuring establishments, at once throw
ing upon the charity of the public 467,
900 workmeu.
The bankers now demand the retire
ment of the greenbacks so that they may
forever establish the gold standard of cur
rency. 1t would require less effort fol-
those bankers to produce a more disas
trous panic in 1895 than in 1893, because
of the fact that the country banks, manu-
facturers and merchants are in a weaker
condition. We shall see what we shall
