WHO IS FOB FREE COlNAGEg

Those who have an abiding faith in
the doctrine that free coinage of silver
will cure all the political ills the Amer.
lean people are heir to, should look at
tbs course of the different party rep
EesentatiVes in Congress. Whenever
o proposition looking toward free coin.
age has been before them the Popu-
lists in both houses have stood like a
stone wall for it, They have done
more; they have gone out Of their way
to induce other members to join them
In an effort to dispose of this question
which now stands in the way of all
progress.
Only last week the Populist Senators
authorized Senator Allen to propose
tariff revenue bill with a free coinage
attachment, and pledge their votes for
1t. Alleged silver Democrats and sill
YER Republicans stood trembling in
their boots for fear they would be
called upon to support this measure,
and thus be in danger of injuring their
chances to secure patronage.
The people may just as we'll settle
down to a realization of the fact that
the only organized party which is un-
equivocslly favorable to free coinage
Is the Peoples party, and If the silver
delegates to the st. Louis convention
recognize this fact and act honestly
there will be no trouble about "getting
together" there.
The silver question is an obstruction
that must be removed before any real
progress can be made.

THE PEOPLE MAY INTERFERE.

Here is a peculiar feature of modern
politics, for the unregenersted of both
old parties to study. In 1892 the ex-
pert politicians Of the Republican party
conceded the Presidency to the Demo
Gratis long before the campaign opened.
In this year of our Lord the expert
Democratic politicians already cOncede
the Presidency to the Republicans.
By "expert politicians" is meant those
who are on the inside, close to the top,
where they can catch the inspiration
from the very sanctuary; not the ward
politicians or the county bosses of the
two parties; these are expected to have
faith at all times, to never for minute
doubt that their party will succeed
"thiS year." They are supposed to
keep the herd together, and to inspire
1t with courage.
The Democrats who put up the
money to run campaigns, the rich man
ufscturers, the railroad owners, and all
the "princes' of the Democrat party
are willing to concede the Presidency
to the Republicans this year. OF course
they want their own party to make q
hot campaign; 1t must do that or it will
die of ennui. They are willing to put
up money for both sides, if necessary,
to keep up the mock fight between the
twin parties; then, if the people remain
ss stupid as they have been, in 1900
the Republicans may let the Democrats
win again.
But there comes q time when the
best laid plans fail; when confidence
games are exposed; when forbearsnce
ceases to be a virtue; when circum-
stances force people to arise in a move
ment Of self-defense. And who knows
but that time is very near at hand. 1t
is at least time to hope.

THE BOND AND THE DOLLAR.

For more than twenty years the fight
against the encroachments Of money
monopoly has been carried on by q
small but steadily increasing number
of weekly and monthly papers, aided
by a scattered band of public speakers
who lacked the means to enable them
to spend much time in educational
work. Until the organization Of the
Peoples party none Of the great daily
papers and magazines dared to say q
word against the power that kept most
of the civilized nations In its power by
controlling their national currency.
The change among this class of period
icsls is as yet slight, but what little we
seen is encouraging. Now and then
some powerful writer forces his way
into the columns of the plutocrstic
press with an expression that startles
the readers who have always believed
that the country was safe in the hands
of the "great finsnciers of Wall street."
The arena magazine has been an ex-
ception to the rule, for it has always
welcomed the writer who advocated
progress and condemned wrong. One
of the most powerful arguments of the
day is by the great historian, John
Clarke Ridpath, and published in the
The advocate. [volume] (Topeka, Kan.) 1894-1897, 1896-03-04

Arena of January, February and
March; it is entitled "The Bond and
the Dollar" It is a scsthing denuncis-
ton of the Encouragement of our
national finances from the Civil war
down to the present day. True, much
of DIR. Ridpath's argument and state
ment of fact have before been ex-
pressed In reform Weeklies and l0.cent
pamphlets, but these were published
by ''cranks and professional sgitators,
while the arena article comes from an
ILL. D." of national reputation as q
scholar. We are glad to see such high
authority on this subject, which there
form press has struggled for years to
bring to the front. We may get per-
mission to publish the article in full,
but in order to scqusint the reader
with the force of it, we, extract the
following:
Let all men know 1t. Let the world know It,
Let the common man ponder this appalling
statement Of an undeniable truth. Let our
national authorities know It, Let the leaders
of every political party have 1t shouted in
their ears. Let every administration that has
been in power from the first Of Grant to the
last OF Cleveland be told In trumpet voice
that the publications put forth from month to
month az statements from the treasury about
the reduction Of the national debt by the pay
ment Of three millions or seven millions or
ten millions have been essentially and utterly
false. True 1t is that the debt has been nom
inally reduced according to the publications;
but 1t has never been 80 reduced until by the
continuance of those who possess 1t the pur-
chasing power of the currency In which the
debt was to be paid has been augmented fully
as much as the equivalent of the payment
Thus from month to month and from year
to year the astounding process has gone on.
And thus from year to year the judgment OF
the American people has been abused with
the iteration and belief that they were paying
their debt, when in truth all the multiplied
millions on millions and billions which they
have paid have been simply contributed TO
the fund-holding class whose claim after
lifetime Is worth as much as 1t was at the be-
ginningl The resources OF a great people have
been poured like q roaring river into sink.
hole that has swallowed all; and the golden
streams Of the contribution have issued 81
lently through . thousand unseen spouts into
the private reservoirs Of the holders Of the
debt.

A SAD DISCREPANCY.

The New York Sun said editorlally
in q recent issue:
The old combine between Populists and
Democrats has at last reached the highest
level in politics. 1t is now In force between
the President and the Populist memberF Of
the United States Senate, united for the mo-
ment in an unprecedented scheme to prevent
the federal government from raising revenue
sufficient to meet its expenses.
The idea of combine between Mr..
Cleveland and the Populists is one Of
the most side-Splitting absurdities Of
the day. 1t would no doubt tickle the
stuffed prophet to death to learn that
he had gotten into such good company.
But here is something printed in the
same issue of the Sun, which knocks
the force out of that papers opinion.
1t is q part of J. G. Csrlisle's address
at the banquet of the Metropolitan
Club in that city the evening before:
The Democratic party Is not dead. The time
has not yet come to dissolve It's affairs and to
distribute its assets among the Popullsts and
their allies. 1t is as old as the republic and
will continue to live as long as the republic
lives.
Since Carlisle and Cleveland are one,
the latter quotation will be accepted
as coming from the better authority as
to where the Combine" lies. 1t is
enough to know at present that the
Populists of the Senate are In position
to make their presence known, and to
throw the responsibility of misgoYern.

enterprise,

We have q communication from E.
Gerry Brown, chairman Of the Popu.
list State committee of Massachusetts,
the object of which Is to direct the at
tention of Populists to what he deems
the most important question to be dis
cussed at st. Louis. viz: the railroad
question. He would have the st. Louis
convention adopt government con-
trol' plank instead of government
ownership" thus going back to the
Ocals- Cincinnati railroad plank, in
stead of the subsequent one adopted at
st. Louis in 1892, and resfirmed at
Omaha the same year. The st, Louis
Omaha railroad plank, Mr.. Brown
says, was the result of COMPROMISE
with the knights of Labor, q strong
element In the 1892 st. Louis conVen-
ton, which accepted in turn the Farm
ers' Alliance 'sub-treasury and $50 per
capita plank; in other words, the rep
resentatiVes of each of these Organizs.
tions accepted the extreme of the
others demands as q compromise.
Brother Brown Is doubtless right
about the question being an important
one, but he is unfamiliar with the ma
ture of Western POpulists if he
thinks they are going to let
a question of that kind create
any discord In the coming convention.
The main effort at St. Louis will not
be to prune the Omaha platform Of its
demands as much as to relieve 1t of
some of its Verbisge and make it plain
and simple. And the most emphasis
will be put upon the subject which is
best understood by reason of It's having
been most discussed, the finance ques.

Whenever you can convince Popu-
lists that railroads can be controlled by
the government without at least some
of them being owned by the govern
ment, you will have no trouble getting
