The avowed theory Of free silver
coinage is founded on the assump-
ton that it will bring more money in
to circulation An increase OF the
money stock OF the country is ex-
pected to raise the prices Of agricul-
utral produce and make the payment
Of debts more easy. This lure is dan
gied before the noses OF the farmers,
and especially in face Of the men who
have mortgages to pay of. Waving,
for the sake OF the argument. any con-
siderations of the bad faith OF this
coinage. and the shock TO credit and
business, il can be certainly demon
strated that unlimited silver coinage
would not increase the money stock
for years to come. For several years,
at least. 1t would greatly contract the
money in circulation. Our mints to-
day running at full blast could not
coin more than eighty million silver
dollars in a year The entire silver
product OF the mines Of the world does
not exceed one hundred and sixty
millions year. A great share Of this
product would be directed inevitably
to the consumption of the manufacture
ing arts and the demands Of other sill
yer coinage countries. Under any con-
ditions several years would be reQuir-
ed to produce a stock of silver dollars
equal in amount to our existing stock
of equivalent gold coins. The advent
OF free-silver coinage would be in
stantIy attended by a withdrawal OF
the gold stock from circulation. This
withdrawal is inevitable on the ground
Of the recognized Gresham law that in
the event of free coinage the coin Of
least bullion value will supplant the
coin Of greater bullion value. The OPP
Grafton of this law has been invaria-
BILE in the monetary experience Of the
world. Such a withdrawal would cause
a contraction Of our currency unexam-
pied in American history. Instead Of
having more money in circulation
there would be a money famine from
Maine to Arizona. The pinching Of
credit would be inevitable. and fear
fully disastrous to every business in
terest. The only good thing under this
black cloud would be the utter col
lapse of the free-silver coinage hum
bug.

Reciprocity With Other Nations.

national calamity. and we demand

Independence of Cuba.

the struggles OF other American peoples

THE SUBSTITUTION OF HANNA.

It is evident that the Democratic
campaign will be largely devoted to
the substitution of ". A. Hanna for
william Mckinley. 1t has already been
proclaimed by the Democrats that the
election Of Mckinley will practically
mean the election Of Hanna, who viii
be the moving spring of the admins
tration. So Mckinley will be twice
pelted, once for himself and once for
the alleged Warwick who made him.
This is really quite an artful scheme
of assault. Thus far the campaign
dragnet has failed to bring even tinge
Of scum to the surface discreditable TO
McKinley's private life and personal
integrity, but there is still some hope
of besmearing him in raking over the
record of his substitute-Hanna. In
fact. it is announced by one Of the
newspapers, which are carrying on the
campaign work most ardently, that it
has scraped up pile Of scandal touch
ing Hanna's relations with his work.
ingmen, which it proposes to expose
from time to time in the most damag-
ing way possible to the Mckinley cam
paign.
Mr.. Hanna is a strong man, abun-
dantly able to take care Of himself
and defend his reputation from libel
lous assault. He has had an honorable.
and successful business life, and his
character has never been seriously
threatened or assailed until he exposed
himself to wanton calumny by his en-
trance into the campaign for his friend,
Mckinley. Probably he would face the
nud-throwing with silent contempt II
he alone was the object of the pelting.
But he will be justly indignant, as
every honest man should be, at the
attempt to cover Mckinley with the
mud ostensibly cast at his leading
hacker. The design will probably fail

parable. Prometheus was on terms of
intimacy with the Gods. From them he
stole fire and gave It to men For this
he was bound to the rocks of Mount
Caucasus, and vultures were set upon
him. They only ate his liver. This
grew again as fast as it was pecked

A Protective Tariff.

We renew and emphasize our allegi-
anee TO the policy OF protection as the
bulwark OF American industrial inde-
pendence and the foundation OF Amer
lean development and prosperity. This
true American policy taxes foreign pro-
ducts and encourages home industry:
Il puts the burden OF revenue on for
eign goods, Il secures the American
market for the American producer: IL
upholds the American standard OF
wages for the American workingman;
II puts the factory by the side OF the
farm. and makes the American farmer
less dependent on foreign demand and
price: 1t difruses general thrift and
POUNDS the strength OF all on the
strength OF each. In It's reasonable APP
plication It is just. fair, and impartial.
equally opposed TO foreign control and
domestic monopoly, 20 sectional dis
elimination and individual favorItism.
We denounce the present Democratic
tariu as sectional, injurious 10 the pun
lie credit and destructive TO business
enterprise We demand such equitable
tarifr on foreign imports which come
into competition with American pro-
ducts as will not only furnish adequate
revenue for the necessary expenses OF

lean labor from degradation to the
wage level Of other lands. We are not
pledged to any particular schedules.
The question OF rates Is n practical
question, to be governed by the condl-
tions OF the time and production; the

Is the protection and development OF
American labor and industry. The
