Nothing for Nothing, Save Trouble.

Rev. FIR. Pheland, is one who objects
to the views held by Archbishop Ire
land respecting the campaign. He
says: I'VE all know what makes hard
times 1t is want of money.
But we know where to get more-in the
ground, thank God" Whose ground ?
Has Father Pheland, or have you, who
read this, any ground that you can re-
SORT to in times of money stringency
and from it dig silver bullion? How
are you to get that bullion dug from
the silver mines owned by the Stew
arts, the Jones, the Rothschilds, the
English and German syndicates except
by giving something in exchange for
it Just as you do now? The dollars
titus obtained will so in channels SINH
Lar to those in which the dollar of to-
day circulates except that the channe

person to become a mine owner, bank

raised from 65 cents an ounce to 81 90
which appears and we believe is an ut
tcrly ridiculous proposition; but if i
did the debtor would not be enabled t.
pay his debts any more easily thai
now. But what Archbishop Irelan,
especially called attention to was tn
incendiarism, the spirit of the com
mune. which the Bryanites are so reck
lessly and wickedly invoking. and tina
is something which Rev. FIR. Charlant
in SO much of his reply as we hay
seen, does not touch upon. 1t is how
ever. a most alarming feature of tn
campaign and an honest desire for fire
SILVER alone is not sufficient reason e
