& cORNERING CARLISLE.

The Populist editor of the Ark
ansas Gazette is seeking to corner
John G. Carlisle, the Secretary of
the Treasury. Carlisle is recognized
as the greatest authority on finance
in this country and is the Big Giant
of debate. If one of Carlisle's ideas
were to find Judgment in Populist
Smithee's head, it. would burst it
wide open. Bat in order to get
Carlisle in a corner and convit him
of a false principle of political
economy, the editor of the Gazette
makes the Secretary say that which
he did not say. Under the caption
of "a New Doctrine, Fridays
Gazete says:
The assertion of Mr.. Carlisle, in
his Chicago speech a short time
since, that the free coinage Of sill yer
meant the expulsion of gold from
the country, the diminishing of our
volume of currency one third, an in
crease in the price of commodities
and a reduction of one-half in the
power of our remaining
currency, is the announcement of a
new doctrine in political economy.
He gravely asserts, in effect, that d
of the currency would
cause an increase in the price of |
commodities.
Secretary Carlisle did not say
that "a contraction of the currency
would cause an increase in the price
of commodities. What Mr.. Car
Isle did say was that an initiation in
values would result from a deprecia-
non IN the purchasing poscer of the
money remaining very different
thing. With the free coinage of
silver, gold would be driven from
circulation and the volume of
money reduced one third so that we
would have nothing but silver
money and paper money based on
silver in circulation, which would
reduce the purchasing power of the
circulating medium to the instrinsic
value of silver, ard in consequence

PERILS OF Boil TING.

The Democrats elected James
Buchanan President in 1856, says
the arkansas Democrat, and failed to
elect President in 1860 by reasons
of discord and dissensions that con
front us at this time. Partisan and
sectional feeling ran so high in the
latter year that division of the
party was inevitable with three
tickets in the field against the Re
publican organization headed by
Lincoln. The result was that the
Democrats paid the penalty of their
folly by being excluded from power
until 1884, period of twenty.eight
years, when they elected Grover
Cleveland. In q most critical period
of the party's history, when it re-
quired united front to win victo-
ry, madness ruled the hour, the par
ty divided and suffered the penalty
of defeat for more than u quarter of
a century. Can it be that all the
costly lessons of experience are to
be lost upon US, and that by reason
of a refusal to accept the principle
laid down by the great apostles of
our party, absolute acquiescence in
the will of the majority, we are
again to go down to defeat? Is his
tory to repeat itself? 1t is by no
means certain that we can win the
election this year if union and har-
mony prevail, but it is absolutely |
certain that we shall throw away |
the last chance left to us if we fail
to present an unbroken front to the
common enemy. We must har-
monize or we are lost. We must
come together and agree TO abide
by the clearly expressed will of the
or we go out of power to
remain out many years to come.

"FTAT FOLLY

The Hot Springs Daily Ne,es is a
strong free silver paper, but it don't
believe in the Populist fiat doc
trine advocated by the Gozette The
Gazettes teachings, the Neaos thinks,
and truly, are undemocratic and
"mischievous. "No power on earth
can create money by fiat, truly
says the Ne1es Money must
possess an intrinsic value of
it's own, or represent a
value. Fiat money means an issue
of paper currency, not redeemable
in anything, with merely the decla-
ration of the government upon it
that it is money. Such a declara-
ton without any promise to redeem
in something of value could not pos
sibly endow paper with currency
value. This old folly has long since
been exploded among all intelligent
people. The democratic party new
err did and never will countenance
such idiocy. Money represents q
value-represents toll, is created by
human labor. The Democratic par
ty believes in gold, silver and paper
money, but none of it as a fat
issue. 1t believes in gold and silver
equal with each other, as the moneys
of commerce, and as the ultimate
basis of all other issues. 1T believes
in paper currency based upon these
metals, but such paper money is
not Cat money because it rests
upon and represents coin. The
stamp of the government upon gold
or silver coin is not a fiat impart-
ing value to it as currency. 1t is
only the recognition of it as legal
tender, and fixing its ratio, and its
Unconventional value. Its value as
money is inherent. Money does not,
nor can it come from the govern
ment. 1t comes from the people,
representing human toll. II can
only be so produced, and all that
the government can do is to reeog
nize and equitably regulate thai
which is and always has been money
gold and silver-the one being
equal with the other in purchasing
and debt.paying power. Democracy
wants no fiat issue. 1t simply
wants silver restored to its consti
tutional place as money aud coined
as gold is coined, by the govern
ment, free of cost, and upon ar
equitable ratio with gold
When this is done there will b,

no fears of the removal of the Cotton
Belt shops. Railway corporations
don't build 100000 plants just to
tear them down again. The pro-
posed shops at Tyler, Texas, simply
means that the Cotton Belt will
build repair shops there for the
Texas end of the line, while the

there are two homes under one roof. Many
such houses have been very successfully

They are convenient and economical and
enable many a man to have a fine, hand

warrant it, and any community would GER
