THE SILVER TRUST.
New York Advertiser.


The World has been doing splendid work in
exposing the plots of the silver trust. The
great mass of facts and figures which have
been laid before the American people should
convince fair-minded men that the members
of the silver trust are only anxious 20 double
and quadruple their own vast fortunes, and
care nothing whatever who may be hurt in so
doing. The commerce OF the Nation may be
paralyzed and the good name of the States
scorned and jeered at in every part of the
world, but what do the mine owners carel 1t
is asser ted that in Colorado alone q 'boodle
fund" of over $300, 900 has been raised TO help
the free silver campaign. II Bryan should be
elected and free coinage OF silver should be
brought about the silver-mine owners expect
to realize enormously. Not all of them believe
that silver can be sraised'' in value 90 81 %
an ounce, as Bryan processes to believe, but
they seem to be quite sure that there will be
some sort of increase in price, and it is this,
great or small, that they are after.
The total profit they would obtain is almost
the State of Colorado alone the mines there,
already appraised at 1922, $50, 600, would
double in value. This, of course, is On the
supposition that silver would increase in value
with the election of Bryan.
This is where the real interest is in Bryan s
election. The only men who want him to
succeed are the members of the dishonest sill
yer trust, who hope to add millions year to
their already large fortunes In each of the
mining States they are subscribing literally to
the corru ption funds. They can well afford to
do so. 1t is the last chance they will ever
have to put the silver question to vote.

RISING WHEAT, FALLING SILVER
..I am for free wool +"

The recent advance in the price of wheat and
other farm products is q cold fact that gives
the Bryan Populists no end of trouble. Bryan
himself seems to have been judicious enough
10 let 1t alone. Others have exposed them
selves to the operation of that buzzsaw with
no small detri ment to their tissues. Accord
ing to these philosophers the prices OF wheat
ana other farm products have fallen since 1873
because in that year Congress did not provide
for coming q silver piece which was not then
In u Sc as money at all and never has been to
any appreeiable extent from the establish
ment of the mint down. They persistently as
serted that the fsll of wheat had kept pace
with the fall of silver. The assertion was un-
falsity, for the Populists simply ignored the
proof and reiterated the falsehoOd. The ad-
vance in the price of wheat, corn, ETC., comes
most opportunely not only for the good OF the
farmer, but as an exposure of the Populist
falsehood that goes straight to every farmer
and cannot be hid awsy.-Chieago Chronicle.
Silver has gone so low since Mr.. Bryon began
his campaign that the bullion value OF a silver
dollar Is now less than 90 cents, and in the
same time wheat has gone beyond 70 cents
bushel. According to Mr.. Bryan, wheat
ought to be less than So cents bushel, but,
unfortunately for him, the law of demand and
supply does precisely for wheat what 1t does
for silver. When people want wheat and there
is not enough wheat 10 supply their needs the
value of wheat goes up When people do not
want wheat because they have more than they
can consume, or there is more than they are
able 80 buy, the value of wheat goes down.
That is what is the trouble with silver. There
is N ore silver in the world than Is needed for
coming purposes. More silver is produced
than the world can use with advantage to
itself. Therefore, the value OF silver goes
down, and 1t will keep on going down.-New
York Press

BoUTRLLEs ADDRESS.

If anything had been needed to confirm
Republicans and all conservative citizens
in the support of Mckinley and Hobart
the confirmation would have been found
in the earnest and eloquent address of
Mr.. Boutelle last evening. Those who
did not hear it should carefully read the
report of it, which we publish this morn
ing. Even though the printed extracts of
the speech lack the ardor infused into the
spoken words by the tone aud the presence
of the orator, and though the enthusiasm
of the great audience is absent from the
themselves have weight, and the glowing
sentences will arouse the mind to the
greatness of the issues before us.
The coming of so distinguished states
man as Mr.. Boutelle to take part in the
California campaign has been a great
stimulus to Republican ardor. 1t has
made it certain that the influence of Cali
fornia in National affairs is recognized in
the East and that the Repu bIican leaders
of that section in their broad National pa
triotism and policy do not overlook this
far-off State on the Western shores of the
continent. They have sent to US one of
the ablest and most ELOQUENT of the great
statesmen of the party to help us in this
contest for prosperity, for good govern
ment and for National honor.
The audience which assembled to hear
Mr.. Boutelle was in every way worthy of
the orator and of the occasion. While
some may have gone to the hall out of
curiosity to see and hear so eminent
representative of our public men the great
majority were there because of profound
interest in the issues of the day and an
earnest desire to hear them discussed by
one so well fitted to do it. The speech
was a mastery presentation of the condi-
ton of the country and the remedy for
existing evils. The contrast between the
conservative elements of society that are
supporting Mckinley and those which
controlled the Chicago convention and are
now supporting Bryan was forcibly drawn.
1t was Just the speech we needed at this
juncture. It will rouse the Republicans of
San Francisco to new efforts and send
them to the work of the closing weeks of
the campaign with a resistless vim and
yigor.

WHEAT AND SILVER.

Now that the ra pid rise in wheat while
silver continues to fall has disclosed even
to the stupidest of the Bryanites the folly
of their main contention in this campaign
they are probably in a condition to learn
the truth on that subject and profit by it.
Wheat has never followed silver in any
of the vicissitudes of price, nor has silver
followed or been affected by the rise or
fall IN the price of wheat. There are some
facts concerning the wheat market. how
ever. which it is well for people to con-
slider at this time. They show that Ameri-
can tariff legislation, by increasing or
diminishing the American home market
for farm products, has had an important
bearing on the price of wheat and has ma
terially affected the welfare of the farmer.
The average per capita consumption OF
wheat during the last year of Harrison's
administration was nearly 6H bushels.
while under Cleveland the consumption
has been IL bushels per capita less. Dur
ing Harrison's administration the selling
price OF wheat for the last two years
averaged about s4 cents per bushel, but
when Cleveland was elected and the free
trade regime began the price went down
to about so cents per busheI.
The present rise in wheat has been
caused by the reported decline in the pro-
duction of the wheat fields of India and
Australia. If now Mckinley should be
elected and the protective tariff restored
there would be added to the present de-
mand the increase in demand that would
result from an improved home market,
and the rise, which otherwise will be but
temporary, would then be permanent and
lasting.
1t can hardly be necessary to point out
to the farmers of the United States the
lesson to be learned from the course of the
wheat market While to men in the cities
that lesson has been one to be gathered
from reading market reports, to the farmer
it has been lesson of personal experience.
He is aware that wheat was higher under
the administration of Harrison than under
that of Cleveland and he now sees that
the price of silver had nothing whatsoever
to do with it. The application of the les
son is plain. If the farmer cares anything
for bis own welfare and the prosperity of
his home his own common-sense will tell
him that he should vote for Mckinley
and Hobart, the champions of the home
market for American produce and Ameri-
cais lahnr

THE COERCION SCARE.

The manifesto of Chairman Jones issued
Yesterday on behalf of the Dep1ucratic
National Committee, addressed to ''The
American People," warning them of a
widespread conspiracy alleged to exist
among employers of labor for the coercion
of voters at the coming election, may be
taken to indicate what the Democratic
method will be during the remaining two
weeks of the campaign.
Argument has already been abandoned,
reason has been cast to the winds, and in
their place there has been adopted wild,
unreasoning and untruthful howl OF CO.
ercion. The American voter is to be told
in all tie notes OF two octaves that he and
his neighbor is the slave of the employer
of each and that upon election day he is
to be forced to vote for a candidate and
platform which he detests or take the
alternative of losing his job.
From the heart of every true and loyal
American citizen should arise cry of
SHANE" upon such disgraceful and dis
creditable campaign tactics as these. The
managers of the Democratic National cam
paign know very we'll that there is nothing
in the cry of coercion which they have
adopted as the last desperate expedient by
which to inhame the minds and subvert
the votes of the laboring people of the
land.
The very indefniteness of Chairman
Jones manifesto is the best evidence that
it has no foundation in fact. Every voter
within the State of California, for exam
pie. who is fortunate enough to have
steady employment, knows that he is not
haf Nv MI hot n
that employer be corporation or an indi-
vidual. It is only necessary for men of
intelligence 10 consider the facts within
their own horizon in order to be assured
of the folly and falsity of Chairman Jones,
assertion.
1t is safe to say that not a single
authentic instance of coercion or intimi-
dation will be discovered by the Demo-
cratic National Committee or by any one
else. This fact, however, will not prevent
the orators and campaign managers of the
Democratic party from uttering and re-
echoing the cry of coercion during the re-
mainder of the campaign. The good
sense of the laboring men of the country
may be safely relied upon, however, not
to be misled or deceived thereby. They
fully realize that their employers and
them selves are united in common in
terest, and that the mutual advantage OF
each depends upon return of that pros
perity which the country had before it
entered upon the present epoch of Demo-
cratic misrule.
If their votes, therefore, are cast in ac-
cordance with their employers desires, it
will be not because of any coercion, but
rather because every employe understands
that his own interests and his employers
interests are identical. and that the Re
publican party is pledged to financial and
commercial policies which will advance
the mutual interests of each.
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-21
FOREIGN IMMIGRATION.

"For the protection of the quality of
our American citizenship and of the wages
of our workingmen, against the favored
competition of low-priced labor, we de-
mand that the immigration laws be thor
oughly enforced, and so extended as to
exclude from entrance into the United
States those who can neither read nor
write"
In this plank the Republican National
platform of 1886 gives pledges to the peo-
pie upon one of the most important issues
OF the day. The Immigration Restriction
League has just issued publication pre-
pared from data furnished by the Com
missioner. General of Immigration, which
shows that with the revival of prosperity
in this country there has come large
increase in the i'm emigration; and. more
over, that the percentage of illiteracy is
greater than in the previous year.
The total Immigration of the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1895, was 25S, 536, and for
the fiscal year of 1896 was 343. .267. showing
an increase TO- the year OF 81, 73L The
number debarred from entrance or re-
turned within one year after landing was
23S9 for the year 1895 and 3037 this year
that IS to say, per cent was returned last
year and this year 0.9. While the per-
centage of immigrants returned was less
this year than for the previous one, the
total number of illiterates who entered
was largely increased, the number of this
class being AZ, 142 in 1895 and SO, 1856 for the
year ending June, 1896.
Another evil noted by the league Is that
a very large proportion of the immigrants
this year comes from Eastern Europe, and
consists largely of unskilled labor. Immi-
grants of this character not only disturb
the labor market by reducing wages, but
go far toward lowering the standard OF
American citizenship. With such facts as
these before us every citizen will recognize
the importance Of not merely enforcing
existing laws with greater energy than
has been done by the Cleveland admins
tration, but of extending them so as to ex-
clude illiterates altogether.
For these reasons the plank in the
Republican National platform which we
have quoted becomes an important issue
in the campaign. There would be little
danger of Bryan's appeal to discomfort
and ignorance if we forbade the importa-
ton of the discontented and the ignorant
from Europe. This issue affects every
other issue in the campaign, and in the
name of American labor and American
citizenship we urge all who desire the well
fare of the country to support the men
who will enforce this law, as well as all
other laws of the Republic.
