WHEN a republican begins to lift uT
his voice about competition with the
pauper labor of Europe, just respect
fully remind him that under the pres
ent tariff law, which is as low ds any.
one asks, the pauper laborers of Europe
are more effeotually keeping their pro-
ducts at home than they did under the
Mckinley law. The balance Of trade
is in our favor and has been almost
continually during these hard times.
A tariff to keep OFT competition that
don't compete; to keep out products
that don't come, will hardly be rem
edy for our financial affairs and help to
pay our mortgages off. 1t will take
more dollars to do that.

SILVER KINGS VS.. GOLD LIARS.

ALL the grinders of the gOlbbug or
R gans are publishing list Of names of
western milliOnaires with the amount
of wealth they are supposed to repre-
sent, who it is claimed are silver mine
owners, and would profit by the free
coinage of silver. This article IS cred
: tied to the Kansas City Journal. The
Journal is one of the papers which six
or eight months ago was one OF the
most radical free silver organs in Il Q
West. But such is the condition of
the independent press" in America.
1t receives its opinions from the
platforms, and the platforms arc made
by Mark Hanna and the Wall Street
bankers.
Among the list is the mare
of Senator Stewart charged with $4O,-
100000. Mr.. Stewart is undoubtedly a
wealthy man, but this makes him rank
we'll up with the Goulds and the wealth.
lest of the American nobility, which
everyone knows cannot be true. Fur
thermore, Senator Stewart has repeat
eddy denied that he has any interest
whatever in silver mines. He does not
deny that he did have ten or twelve
years ago, but says that he disposed of
all such property that it might not be
said he was personally interested in
silver mining. The fact seems to be
that the cOmpilers of that article
conned over the names of the wealth
lest men in the West, and fixed up a
sum convenient to set beside each
name, which it says they are SUPPOSED
TO BE WORTH; not what they are sup
posed to have invested in silver mines,
and then says they are the only men
who would profit by free coinage. 1t
does not even aver that theylhave any
snch investments, but Of course they
would profit as all western people
would. 1t is quite clever, this little
game, but it will hardly work. Sup
pose we should get up such a list of
creditors who would profit by the gold
standard, with what they are supposed
to be worth, beginning with Roth
schields with his half of the eartl
how would the figures compare? There
are many mighty cheap arguments
flung out to the people by these pre-
sumptiOus chaps who have poor cause
to defend and think their readers are
so party-blInd that they will believe
anything. In this article the writer
even proceeds to figure the whole sill
yer output of $54 200, O0Owith the prof
its supposed to accrue to it under free
coinage, to these few millioaaires just
as though there were no small mine
owners who have dug up their pros
poets themselves. 1t is mendacious
enough to cOmpOIt we'll with the other
work of ThurstOn, the Union Pacific
attorney, and those who are Conduct

CHESTER l. LONG opened his cam
paign at Garden City Saturday by a
thorough gold standard speech and de-
Tense of that monetary principle. He
gets into the wagon with Cleveland
and Carlisle to prove that Jefferson
and Jackson were gold standard men
and all that. 1t must make those old
heroes impatient in heaven to see their
records so distorted ana twisted. For
example, in 1884 when the commercial
value of silver was below the coinage
value, instead of crying for demonetiz-
alton and thus making an already dear
gold dollar dearer, Jackson said, here
we will leave our cheaper dollar, the
dollar of the poor, as it is and cut the
dollar, the dollar of the rich. Ac-
cOrdingly the law was passed which
changed the ratio they now tell about.
If these bi-metalist people who want
the largest use of silver, ETC., and more
money and suggest a change of ratio,
why do they not do like Jackson and
propose to reduce the size of the gold
dollar, so we can get more Of them and
keep our silver as it is and get more of
it, by free coinage.

A QUESTION for gold bugs to answer
is how the silver mine owners are 60
ing to get rich on fifty cent dollars
They would do we'll to determine be-
fore they proceed further in this cam
paign, which charge they are going to
make; that we will after free coinage
have fifty cent dollars or that free sill
yer will enrich the mine owners. 1t
can't do the latter unless the price Of
silver rises and then we won't have any
fifty cent dollar, that is, not even in
bullion value.

BLAIN ON SILVER.

The Post Dispatch recently published
an extract from one of Blaine's
speeches in which he said that he be-
lieved "the struggle then and now 60
ing on 10 this and other countries for
a single gold standard would, if success
full. produce wide spread disaster in
and throughout the commercial world, "
and that lit is impossible to strike sill
yer out of existence as money without
results that will prove distressing to
millions and utterly disastrous to tens
of thousands"
Gold standard men are now charging
the Post-Dispatch with insincerity be-
cause it did not 90 on and print a great
deal more ofthe same speech, showing
that, although, Mr.. Blaine believed the
conspiracy to corner gold meant ruin
for this country and Others, he had not
the courage Of his convictions, but like
the cOwardly Rothschlld camp followers
who style themselves international BIZ
metallists, advised America to wait
upon the pleasure Of the European gold
borders tor relief.
What the Post Dispatch showed was
that James G.. Blaine, tho most brainy
and brilliant leader of his party, fully
recognized the terrible effects of the
gold standard. That he had not the
courage to point out the only practical
and American remedy was his misfOr
tune and the peoples.
Mr.. Blaine clearly saw ruin ahead.
But he advised the people to let it come,
unless the shylocks who were conspir-
ing to bring it about chose to abandon
their conspiracy.-St. Louis P0st-Dis

ALMOST every gold standard argu.
ment is based on the presumption that
the same conditions will exist after
adopting free coinage, that do now.
For instance, the talk about the fifty
cent dollars, etc. Given an OppOrtu-
nifty to take fifty cents worth of silver
and purchase a dollars's worth of pro-
ducts and pay dollars worth of debts
and 1t will surely not take long for the
fifty cents to get to be worth a dollar.
The only question about this is whether
there are enough products to employ
all the dollars that may be coined.
Here is where the rub comes in Mex
leo and the few other free silver cOun-
tries at present. They are poor in
resources, and while the coinage of sill
yer is greatly stimulating prOduc-
ton, they are yet not producing
enough to nave products for sale sufli-
Gent to employ all the silver mined
and bring the price of it up to its old
mark. Let Uncle Sam offer all his re-
sources and varied and diversified pro-
ducts that may be shipped to other
countries in exchange for the dollars
that may be coined free, and you will
imme diately see jump in the price of
silver to where it was formerly. while
gold as money metal, being to this
degree superseded, will begin to fall in
exchange value till the two come to-
