THE OPTICS REPUBLICANIsM

THE OPTICS REPUBLICANISM
In this paper's defense of silver, the
insinuation has at times gone out from
the federalists hat The Optic is moi
loyal to the republican party and thai
it has done the party harm in this
campaign. We are pleased to note that
all these in%sinuations have come from
men who believe their own interests to
be the party's interests and who arc
endeavoring to swing the people of thi'
Territory into a reputation of their OWL
honest convictions for the sake of max
ing themselves solid with the next re-
publican administration, should we
have one in the next four years.
Let us call the attention of the peo-
pie to the fact that THE Optic stands
just where it has for the past ten years,
and that our republlcanism has been
plenty good enough for the party in
that time that we are in full accord
with the st. Louis platform, with the
exception of the gold plank, and that
we only ask that the Territorial con
vention Of the republican party which
meets in this city next Saturday, stand
honestly for bi-metallism, as it has in
years past, and give us a man to sup
port for delegate to congress whose
convictions on this question are known
to the people, with a friendly clause
for silver, with q candidate who will
champion it, with our own protective
principles, the republicans of this Ter
ritory will win a victory this fall. II
they do not have these, defeat stares
them in the face, and they deserve de-
defeat.

Ayers SarsaparIlla enjoys the ex

in favor OF Ayers Sarsaparilla was in

REPUBLICAN MONEY PLANK 1894

We affirm that the demonetiz ation OF iii.
yer has not only reduced the value of thai
metal, but by increasing the purchasing
power OF gold, has correspondingly de.
pressed the value of all products and COM
mod1ties and increased the burden of all
debts, thus crushing the agricultural and
other producing classes, as well as the sill
YER miners of the country, and no perma-
nent return of general prosperity can be
expected until bi-metallism Is re-estab-
iished by the free and unlimited coinage
OF gold and silver, as it existed from The
foundation of the government to the year
1873, at the ratio of 16 to 1, which we insist
shall be done without waiting for the CO.
operation OF any nation or nations. and we
call upon all opponents of silver to point
to any good that has come to this country
or the world at large by d~emonetizing
We arraign Grover Cleveland as the
arch enemy of silver coinage, and the
CHIEF supporter 10 this country OF the
mono-metallic creditor class of Europe !:
for the corrupt use of the executive powe or
and patronage in coercing the action Of
congress on the repeal of the Sherman
purchase act; and for the veto of the bill
co coin the government silver now living
useless in the treasury, and NE charge that
the democratic party, while having SUI
preme power in the governm emit, has not
passed any measure whatever favorable to
silver coinage, or to the lessening of the
burdens of the people.

TO Settle Differences Between
Civilized Nations.

New York, March pa plan pro-
vidipg for a permanent court Of arbitra-
ton for the settlement Of disputes be-
tween civilized nations in general and
between the United States and Great
Britain in particular, was considered
to-day by the committee on interna-
t;onal arbitration of the New York
State Bar association. The plan was
OF given out for publication, because
i. is not yet considered iu all its details.
It is the object Of the committee to OBJ
tain the concurrence and cooperation
in the final formation Of this plan of
all the bar associations Of this country
az we'll as Great Britaio, Canada aud
Australia.
The meeting was held at the Office Of
Edward G.. Whitaker. No. 20 Broad
way, the president of the association.
Correspondence has already been open
ed with the various bar associations Of
the country, aud favorable replies were
read to-day from those Of Maine, West
Virginia, Wisconsin, New Mexico,
Georgia, New Hampshire, District of
Columbia, Iowa. Virginia and Michi-
gan. The meeting went into execu-
tive session, and the plao, SO far as it
has at present progressed, was present.
ed to the committee by th q p.commis-
tee appointed some time ago to consider
the matter.
Before the formal adoption of the
plan it will be submitted to President
cleveland in memorial from the asso-
citation. but this will not be until the
arbitration com mittees of all the State
bar associations of the country have
passed upon it.
President Whitaker, when asked
what were the general features of the
plan proposed, said: "It provides for
the naming by the United States and
Great Britain some Ct the highest judi
cial officers, who shall constitute a
court for the adjudication of all dip!o-
matte differences that shall arise be-
tween the two nations. This court is
to be always 10 session 10 legal sense.
That is, it will always be ready to meet
whenever called upon by the joint ac-
ton of the two governments.
..Tbe American members of the
court are to be taken from the Federal
judiciary. The English will, Of course:
make their chancellor member. 1t is
possible that we may recommend that
Germany and France shall be repre-
santed. That will depend to some OK
tent on the attitude of these countries
and also Of Great Britain. The object
i will be primarily to settle the disputes
bstween the two countries, but We anti
,ipate that the advantages Of the court
|yiill become so obvious to other nations
hat they will also seek its benefits and
nbmit their disputes to its decision,
