Senator Villas tcld his associates a con-
siderable part of the truth when he said
that the financial distress and public
misery OF the last three years wers the
direct products Of the efforts to force free
silver upon the coutry He would have
told the whole truth had he said that
agitation for free silver and fears Of
Democratic legislation in the way OF
free trade brought upon the country the
financial distress and Industrial depres-
sion which swept over it in 1890 But he
said truly that "our course 10 relief is "A
return to sound principles" and was cor
rect in declaring "bimetallism" as ex-
pounded by the free silver men TO be
merely & dream incapable OF waking
realization. Il will be well II he can get
the Democratic leaders to believe that
every step Of the fatal progress in error
toward free silverism) has been opposed
to the cardinal doctrines on which the.
Democratic party is based" for he ana
they know well the Sherman act was
voted for by the Republicans in 1s9gI
simply because It was The only thing
possible to avoid the free silvsr at &c t5'

Tia, the casot OF elscting n Democratic
president and congress, and the conse-
quent staseation OF business, mas been
most disastrous IS gcRerally admitted by
all unnrejudioe-i persons, Rpt when the
iosses incurred during Democrats su-
premscy cone to be figured un the re
suit even surprises those who were pre-
pared for very bad showing. The
New York Chamber OF Commerce has
sus, issued a statement showing the TX
tent of foreign commerce at the por; Of
New York during recent years. These
statistics prove that there has been fall
ing on In the amount OF exports ana
imports each year for the last three years
Agyregating over three hundred millions.
For a number of years previous to the
coming into power OF the Democrats in
the White House and in congress, there
had been steady gains In the amount OF
foreign commerce at the port OF New
York. as is shown in the same tablss OF
STATISTICS 70 NthSu ItleINhcN' HaS t4St
been made.
There are men who still attempt to ex-
plain away this and similar proof Of
Democratic misrule The same men
prcphesied during the lass presidential
campaign that peried ot great pros-
rerity would be enjoyed II their candidate
was elected This was to be shown espe-
eially in the department Of foreign COM
merce. The statistics just quoted de
monstrate what miserable failure has
been made Not only did gains in the
volume of business done at the port of
New York cease. during 1875. 1884 and
lSs5. but there was an actual loss Of over
three hundred millions in value
This is the record Of foreign commerce
at the principal port OF entry. II the
losses in manufacturing. in merchaniis-
ing. and in other departments of busi-
ness could be described in figures, the
total would be appalling The people
without exception, however. have suffered
from Democratic misrule. and are so IA
miliar with its effects that thsy will take
good care no; to give that discredited
party another chance 10 bring disaster
upon the country.

AT a rccea; secret convention Of the
A. p. A. organization held in leading
Eastern city. after resolving that they
hold absolutely the balance OF power in
this country" and that 1t is in their
power TO elect or defeat any presidential
nominee" the conventionists procseded
to declare the principles OF their organi-
zation as follows:
The association will demand. as the
consideration for its support, the reaffir-
nation OF the principle OF total separa-
ton of church and state. restriction OF
immigration, reform of laws on citizen
ship and suffrage and reafirmance of
faith in the public school as the basis OF
liberty
There is certainly nothing the matter
with these principles. and any honest. pa
triotic American citizen ought to be will
ing TO cheerfuIly support them. The A
p. AS are populaTly supposed to be or
ganized chiefly to make war on Catholics.
although they have always stranuously
denied this. but the platform adopted at
the netting referred 10. and as here
printed, would surely have the hearty
support OF every good citizen. Catholic or
Protestant 1t is hard to see. therefore,
why a secret oath-bound organization
should be necessary to promote principles
that are OF universal acceptance, but it
is not difficult TO see why the claim IS
made that the believers in such prineip
not only hold the balance of power in this
country. but they form the vast, over
whelming majority Of the voters and peo-
pie OF the country Of all sects and re-
ligious denominations. Our country would
have come to a sorry pass, indeed, If the
maintenance OF such principles-principles
that are vital to the very life Of the re-
public-should require for their mainte-
nance not the fearless vote Of free peO-
pie, but the frightened action Of a secret,
oath-bound organization.
