1 practical destruction Of one-haR the
money Of Europe and America By the
characterization Of silver has been com
pletely ignored.
We have had twenty-three ~. OF
financial and business distress Aall
except the few who could COZ and
manipulate the money supply.An the
New York and Massachusetts, Republi-
can leaders think Il 50 good thing that
they are determined to maintain II at all
haxards
It has long been a belief among
economists that money is an instru-
mentality designed to enable men to do
business upon the principles Of natuI al
Justice. and In such a manner as to
bring q reasonable share Of prosperity
and happiness to the door Of every in
dustrious and careful man.
The New York and Massachusetts,
Republican leaders, though, have out
grown all such sentimental philosophy
as that. They have discovered that the
end and aim of man should be to pre-
serve the gold standard, in order that
the money lender may thrive, the
millionaire become a multimilliolaire.
while the debtor bends lower and lower
beneath his increasing load, and the
laborer tolls on and on for a smaller
and smaller pittance.
Whether this is what the New York
and Massachusetts, Republicans really
eesire, 1t is what their beloved standard
Of gold means, and what 1t Is rapidly
accomplishing.
There is scarcely a doubt that the
Republicans Of the remaining New
England states, Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Vir-
ginia, and perhaps some others will as
sumo substantially the same position.
With Kansas and Iowa silent. and
Ohio and other Western states simply
playing a policy game, it is almost a
foregone conclusion that the gold
standard idea as set forth in New York
and Massachusetts, will dominate the
next Republican convention.
This is exactly what the out and out
silver Republicans desire. They know
that ambiguity, evasion and proyisos
with reference to silver coinage mean
gold, and they want the issue made so
clear that "he who runs may read"
They tip their hats to the New York
and Massachusetts, Republicans, and
will politely pick up the gauntlet so
boldly thrown down.
