insure confidence. But there is far less
likelihood of it being destroyed when
the metallic money basis of it is as
broad as it is possible to make it. The
decentralization of silver reduces the
basis one-half.
For the Republican party to declare
for the maintenance of the gold stand
ard and at the same time to condemn
Mr.. Cleveland for maintaining it, is GER
tainly a most inconsistent thing. If
Mr.. Mckinley is elected he will find
himself confronted by a currency ques-
ton that will tax all his resources to
solve and which cannot be solved by
any amount of high tariff legislation
He will then realize that to declare
what shall be done is very different
from the doing of it.

The Detroit Tribune has this to say
regarding the selfishDess of the silver
people: 1T profits little to say that
the silver people are looking to the
interest of their pockets. Sentiment is
sentiment. regardless of motive. and
sentiment is what party has to con-
slider. if it proposes to make platform
that viii win at the polls. Nobody is
responsible to the party for his mo-
tives. Moreover, there are gold men
whose houses are altogether too vitre-
Gus TO permit them safely to invite any
comparison Of motives. The interest
; of the pocket seems to be pretty large
ly in evidence in the gold camp, and it
is Irot necessarily an unbecoming in
terest at that"

The question which confronts Senator

In 1891 Major Mckinley made a
speech at Toledo, O., in which he
severely condemned Mr.. Cleveland for
his position on the silver question He
said: During all his years at the
head of the government he was dis
honoring one of our precious metals,
one of our own great products, dis
crediting silver and enhancing the
price Of gold. He endeavored even
before his Inaugural ton to stop the
coinage of silver dollars, and after
ward. and to the end of his administra-
ton, persistently used his powers TO
that end He was determined to con-
tract the circulating medium and de-
monetize one of the coins of commerce,
limit the volume Of money among the
people, make money scarce, and there
fore dear. He would have increased
the value of money and diminished
the value of everything else-money
the master. everything else the serv-
ant" And now he is standing upon
an out-and-out gold platform that con-
dennis the free coinage of silver. 1t
is very evident that Major Mckinley
would rather be president than be
right.
