A Nut for ThurStOn to Crack.

Senator Tburston is making speeches
all over the country denouncing free
silver coinage as dishonest" Why did
he write as follows in 1893:
81 have no doubt the remonetization
Of silver in the United States would
speedily and certainly appreciate the
price Of silver, not only in this country
but throughout the whole world. No
matter what other governments. do, this
country ought not to eliminate silver
from use as coin metal. Any legislation
in that direction will be looked upon by
the common people as in the interest Of
the money power for the express pur-
pose Of increasing the purchasing power
Of money and decreasing the selling price
OF everything produced by human toll
1t is fact which should not be over
looked by Statesmen that the price Of
American silver and the price Of Ameri-
can wheat reached low water mark on
the same day.

the West" and "in line with Re-
publican pledges" the Republican
leaders, voters, camp followers and
all are now supporting the gold
standard. They want these men TO
answer these question and tell wherein
and why free coinage is now going to
prove ruinOus TO the country and def.
rimentsl to It's welfare when 1t would
have been such good thing In 1891.

Palmer'S silver Record.

Senator John M. Palmer, while editor
Of the State Register, in his issue Of
February 8, 1878, said:
"The Chicago Tribune with cheerful
impudence states that 'two-thirds Of the
men who voted for Tllden are for the
silver dollar The fact is the silver
dollar is Democratic coin, and all the
men who voted for Tilden, on principle,
are for that dollar"
Saturday, February 8, 1878, he said
editorislly:
"The real point ofthe whole discussion
as to the silver dollar is the question
whether the peop shall be allowed to
have the use of that specie currency
which the constitution provides for"
Saturday, February l6, 1878, he said
editorially:
"The national bankers are making q
more desperate fight against the silver
dollar than anybody supposed they
possibly could"

tion to $23, the highest figure that hss
been reached in the nasion'p history. 1t
is admitted that this legislation is ex-
perimental. It proves the Republican
party's friendllness to the largest safe
use Of silver. 1t is a hopeful experiment.
Il tends towards bringing the two money
metals upon party"

ard Of exchange. This would be all we'll
enough if anyone were able to insure
that the supply OF gold would contin-
ually increase in ratio with the increas-
ing demand for it caused by growing
population and commerce, but as a mat
ter Of fact, it is decreasing in that ratio,
and therefore a man who ten years ago
contracted q debt which might then
have been discharged with thousand
bushels Of wheat, must today pay many
more than thousand bushels to get
himself free. just as it is true to say
that the silver dollar which was eX-
changed on an eqallty with gold fifteen
years ago Is now worth but 80 cents in
gold, so it is true to say that an amount
Of wheat that would exchange fifteen
years ago for gold dollar is worth much
less to-day.
"The meaning Of this is clear. The
capitalist can increase his wealth by
simply converting it into gold, putting it
in a vault and holding it idle for series
of years. At the end Of ten years it will
buy more provisions and more labor than
it would when he stored it. AS the sup
ply of gold contracts, everybody must
work harder to get it.
"It is plain that debtor is entitled to
discharge his obligations for value pre-
cisely similar to that he originally OBJ
tanned. He cannot do this if the money
in which his loan is compulsorlly pay
able increases between the date OF its
making and the date Of its payment.
Measured IN gold all obligations hGOe
thus increased tD a Very short period Of
time. The creditor class enjoys, there
fore, vast advantage over the debtor
class. The men who work for their liv-
ing and who consume their earnings
year by year are placed in most unfair
position"
The words italicized are printed in
bold face in the original.
The Republican record is then taken
up, and the following appears under
that head:
"The Republican party is emphatically
a bimetsllic party, 1t believes that the
evils suffered by the people as the result
Of the appreciation of gold require
prompt and substantial correction. It
is not proper, however, to correct them
by flying to a greater evil. 1t is not
proper to debase the currency or to take
any course that frightens capital, dis
courages investment, or puts labor at a
disadvantage. The Republican plat
form in 1888 distinctly called for the use
of both gold and silver as money, and
condemned Mr.. Cleveland and the policy
he had pursued in his effort completely
to demonetize silver. President Harri-
son, in his first message, GOGrnly urged
StlUer coinage, and declared tt foolish
to diScredit metal Of 1Ohich zoe 1Oere

dom, fully agreeing with this, instead Of
advocating the cessation Of coinage, as
Mr., Cleveland and his Secretary had
done, advised that it be increased to six
million ounces per month. His views
were in a measure accepted by the Re-
publican majority in the House, and a

SILVER IN OUR CURRENCY.
Extracts From Republican Campaign Hand
book.

The National League OF Republican
Clubs issued a handbook called "The
Principles and Policies OF the Republi-
can Party in 1892" In this handbook, be-
ginning on page 50, is given chapter
on "Silver in Our Currency" AS the
principles and policies of the party as set
forth therein are somewhat at variance
with the platforms adopted by that party
this year, number Of statements from
this handbook are here given.
1t begins by saying:
"If every voter in the United States
were called upon to-day to declare
whether he desired the use Of silver as
we'll as gold in our monetary system, Ger
tainly as many as ninety voters out of
every hundred would answer in the sf-
frmative, and an equal proportion would
favor such legislation as tended directly
to bring about the free and unlimited
coinage of both metals, if they believed
the two could be maintained at par. II,
however, voters are asked what that leg
islation should be, they instantly divide
and within the silver line they become
hopelessly confused. And no wonder.
No problem Of government is more COM
plicated or more difficult Of analysis than
the problem of currency. 1t will here be
undertaken to explain what the silver
question is, how it came about, and what
sttitute has been assumed with regard
to it by the two great parties.
'rUntil the year 1873 the United States
coined both gold and silver freely in un-
limited quantities; that is, anybody hold
ing gold or silver bullion could take it to
the mints Of the United States and re-
ceive for it fixed, unvarying price; but
in 1873, by the omission Of the silver dol
lar from the coinage law prescribing the
silver coins OF the United States to be
thereafter coined, and by the limitation
Of the legal tender of silver to five dol
lars, silver was in effect demonetized,
and 1t has never since been restored fully
to the position it held in the earlier coin
age system Of this country. There has
been much irrelevant controversy as to
whether this was done Intentionally and
after full discussion, or accidentally 80
far as the majority Of Congress we're con-
cerned, and by an artful trick on the
part Of certain persons interested in
bringing about gold standard. Such
controversy serves no useful purpose.
At that time both silver and gold we're
at a large premium, specie payments not
having been resumed, and paper money
was the only currency. The important
fact, moreover, is that silver 10Gs de-
monetized, and it is Of little service in
considering how it's money uses may be
restored to provoke quarrel as to how
il was deprived Of them"
The italics are as printed in the origi-
nal.
It is then stated that free and unlimi-
ted coinage would bring unsatisfactory
results, after which the following ap-
pears:
"On the other hand, there is grave
danger in the unqualified adoption Of
the gold standard For, as silver has
been taken out of Europe's coinage, the
demand for gold has enormously grown,
and grown in q proportion much greater
