SOUND MONEY.

Those Republicans who think it will
be sufficient for the ST. Louis convention
to declare for sound money can profitably
turn their eyes to Virginia where the
Democrats have just been resolving in
favor OF sound money. They will there
learn that sound money is all ambiguous
phrase capable of widely different inter
probation. The Republicans who use
tho term have in mind our present
money, which is all based on gold, and
kept at parity because of that fact
That is not the Virginia Democrats
idea of sound money at all. Sound
money, in the Virginia view, is to be
obtained only by granting the two metals
equal coinage rights and equal legal ten
der quality. This is their declaration on
the subject
We are for sound money, tho soundest
the world has ever had or can have This
sound money should consist of silver and
gold, and of paper redeemable in silver
or gold at the option of the payer. the
units OF the whole mass to be kept at;
parity by coinage rights and equal legal
tender function.
We bold to the use of both gold and sill
Yer RS the standard money of the coun.
try, and to the coinage of both gold and
silver, without discriminating against
either metal or charge for mintage. The
immediate and complete restoration of
the bimetallism of money, which existed
IN the United States from 1898 to 1873 is
IN our opinion demanded by the interests
OF commerce, Tnanufac lures and agricul-
ture, which are alike suffering from the
continuous fall of prices and the conse-
quent embarrassment or bankruptcy of
those engaged therein, and in order SO to
restore it, we demand the free and un-
limited coinage of both silver and gold Mt
the ratio OF it to without waiting for
the assent or concurrence of any other
nation.
1t will be seen that what the Virginia
Democrat understands sound money to
be is exactly opposite to what the Repub.
hcans who favor the use OF that phrase in
the ST. Louis platform mean by it. In
che Virginia Democrats opinion free sill
YER coinage is essential to sound money,
in the Republicans opinion it is inoom-
patible with it.
Unless, therefore, Republicans want to
become "straddlers' they will not under.
take to define their position with any
such loose term as ''sound money" If
their purpose is to deceive, to throw
sops to all kind of people "sound money"
is the proper term to use The gold men
can construe it to mean the present
money and the silver men can interpret it
as meaning the kind of money they want.
But if the party has convictions and the
courage to express them it will not con-
tent itself with declaring for sound

OUR PINE STATE EDITION.

This issue of the PRESS, with its
twenty eight pages, constitutes our Pine
Tree-State edition, the preparation of
which was announced sometime ago. In
It's pages will be found q very complete
showing of the varied business interests
of Maine and the brilliant record made
by her sons in national affairs. The
general survey Of Names resources has
been prepared by gentlemen eminently
qualified for the task who have given it
great care and attention. Names mag
uiticent water power, it's exceptional op-
portunities for manufacturing, its pictlr-
esque scenery, its splendid summer climate,
and the exhaustless attractions it offers to
the sportsmen and tourist are set forth
and portrayed with much completeness
Through the wide circulation which is
assured this edition Maine's advantages
and attractions will be brought to the
attention of many thousands of people
throughout the length and breadth of
the country, and the result cannot fail
to be helpful to the State and its enter
prises.
The preparation of such mass of ma
terial involved much labor and care, and
this part has been in charge of Mr.. j. H.
Morrow, former Maine man but
of late years, resident of Miohi-
gan. MIR. Morrow has given the work
his careful attention for several months
and has made every effort to have the
sh owing complete one. The pages will
speak for themselves. 1t is safe to Say
that 10 so complete presentation of
Maine business interests has ever been
made before. Mr.. Morrow and his assist
ants have met with cordial support in all
parts of the state and the enterprise of
the PRESS has been highly commended.

The New York World publishes a letter
alleged to have been written by Major
Mckinley to the Ohio Farmers Alliance
in response to an inquiry as to his posi-
ton upon some of the questions that
were figuring in the Ohio campaign.
The letter was written in 1890 when Mr..
Mckinley was candidate for Congress.
His attitude toward silver was thus de-
fined:
=" am in favor of the use of all the sill
yer product of the United States for
money as circulating medium"
The natural Interpretation of this
declaration is that Mr.. Mckinley was in
favor of the governments buying all the
product the silver miners of this country
had to sell and coming it into money.
This is not free silver coinage, but it
would bring upon the country all the
evils of free silver coinage, while in prin.
ciple it is not half so defensible. MIR.

men, has been circulating remark OF

would not accept nomination on free
silver platform. But if he is suill in fav-
or OF tho governments purchasing and
using as currency all tho silver product
OF this country he is in favor of quite as
dangerous policy as that of free coinage.
The New York World, which makes the
letter public, has been known to be
guilty of manufacturing out of whole
cloth letters as important as this one.
Perhaps 1t manufactured this,
