SHUTTING OUT FOREIGN IDEAS.

SHUTTING OUT FOREIGN IDEAS.
Hon. Thomas B. Reed at Chicago: l
am very proud Of the United States. l
have been all e it, and have some
idea gifts greatness. But there is one
kind of a greatness Of the United States
that l am not al all proud of-that
which makes out of US a gigatic cow
boy just come to town, with a desire for
vermillion and a determination to make
everybody dance, not because they are
pleased but because they are scared.
When, therefore, l hear men in promi-
nent positions sneering at ideas upon
the sole ground that they are foreign l
feel a reasonable amount of distrust OF
such men.
l remember, among other things. that
this country. so far as the people are
concerned, did not invent itself. In
fact, we were all OF us imported with
in the last 800 years. and one OF the
most singular facts connected with this
contempt Of foreign financial policies
is the fact that the very men who ex-
pressed this contempt have adopted
and nearly ruined this country by q
free trade policy which was not only
invented in Great Britain, but Is con
fined to that country at the present
time exclusively.

Nobody seems to be trying now to
show that the price OF wheat is govern
ed by the price Of silver. although not
very long ago 1t was one Of the stock
arguments OF the free silver men, es-
p~ecially in agricultural communities.
With wheat going up and silver still
dropping it had to be abandoned. None
OF the other silver arguments would

Whenever any political party sets out
to make times better by increasing the
cost of living, 1t Is in order for the

There is trickery OF some sort afoot.

THE BURNING QUESTION.
. LEADING SILVER MINER FOR

Henry Knippenbeger. Glendale,
Mont: During 16 years l have furn-
ished the world 10000, 900 ounces OF
silver. I have paid In Beaverhead

ooo, 1000. Notwithstanding all this, l am

power to assert value. The great COM
mercial world knows, recognizes and
bows to the authority Of supply and de-
mand.
The very fact that 1t is sought to dou-
BILE the value Of a silver dollar by legis-
lation Is a confession that the gold dol
lar is worth 100 cents. No American
citizen should cheat himself with the
delusion that he is a patriot because he
may offer his misfortunes as indicative
of the need of special laws to fit his
particular case. would scorn that law
that would make me the beneficiary Of
an injustice to another. The man in
public position who will permit him
self to be swerved from the path OF
duty to all by any clamor is the enemy
OF the very class he serves. either as a
mistaken or a cringing slave.
The proposition of the free, indie
pendent and unlimited coinage of sill
e at the ratio Of 16 to 1. when the
commercial value is 80 to 1, is dis
honest. and must result in ruin.

STEWART ON GOLD.
Has Changed His Mind Since
He Became Possessed of
Silver Mines.

In a debate in congress in 1874 Senator Stewart said: Il do not care
how much you discuss it, or how many resolutions you pass, they do not
make any difference; you must come to the same conclusion that all other
people have-that gold is recognized as the universe. standard of value. It
is the measure by which wealth must be tested; and whether it be pen
MES OF millions matters not, it is thee measure that mus. test all wealth"
On another occasion Senator Stewart said: THE question never will
be settled until you determine the simple question whether the laboring
M is entitled to have a good dollar If he earnsn ii, o whether you IN o
ing to cheat him with something else"-Congrssonal Record, June IL,
1874. Page 1909.
The Congressional Record of 1874 contains the following from the
senator from Nevada:
II want the standard gold, and n paper not redeemable n gold"
About two weeks later o February 20, 1874, the san gentleman
said:
by this process we shall come to a specie basis, and when the labor
ing a receives a dollar it will have the purchasing power of a dollar,
and he will not be called upon to do what is impossible for him or thepro-
ducing classes to do figure upon the exchanges, figure upon the fuctua-
lions, figure upon the gambling in New York; but he will know what his
money is worth. GOLD IS THE UNIVERSAL STANDARD OF THE
WORLD. EVERYBODY KNOWS WHAT A DOLLAR IN GOLD IS
WORTH"
These are the words Of Senator Stewart before he became simply the
representative of a & special interest.

LACK OF

The advocates Of free coinage never
tire Of declaring that what we need is
more money. II their theory is right,
then as u present condition has only
prevailed since 1893, 1t must follow that
there has been some great and sudden
change in our coinage during that time.
We all know that this business depres-
sion began in 1893. and that during
1889. 80. 81 and '92, the country was
prosperous. We know equally we'll
that in 1893. "a and '95 we have lacked
prosperity.
With this sharp change in the condi-
ton OF the country between the two
periods. let us test the value of the two
explanations that are offered. First,
is it lack Of coinage. The total coin
age each year for six years past. of
gold. silver and minor coins, is as fol-

All the rest of the house will be sold at twenty-five cents There will be absolutely no private or ders taken for seats. The public sale opens at the Hyperion theater at g o'clock tomorrow morning.
