THERE Is NO CHANCE.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-The senate
committee ON finance was called to-
gether in special session today at the
instance of Senator Sherman to con-
slider whether it was not possible even
yet to formulate some bill to increase
the revenues of the government, upon
which the Democrats and Republicans
could agree. 1t immediately became
apparent that there was no possibil-
ity of reaching a common understand
ing.

BoIEs' PLANK.
One That Was Ruled Out BY the
Committee.


DUBUQUE, Ia, May Ex-Governor
Boies, who will head the Iowa delegation
to the Democratic national convention at
Chicago, prepared the following plank of
the platform, but it was rejected by the
committee and not reported to the con-
vention:
In making this declaration, we do not
ignore nor underestimate the Importance
of the Democratic doctrine that the parity
of coin made from two metals of which
a double standard is composed should be
faithfully and honorably maintained
And while we believe a ratio which has
been substantially continued for three
quarters of a century in the most pros
porous period of our countrys history
will prove equally efficient and equally
satisfactory, if readopted now; still, if
when silver and gold are restored to alb
solute equality before the law with equal
rights in the minis of the nation and as
money of final redemption, reasonable ex-
perience shall demonstrate that parity at
the ratio aforesaid cannot be maintained.
we pledge the Democracy of Iowa to aid
by every means within its power in the
establishment of new ratio just to all
classes of our citizens alike by which such
parity shall be maintained

Became Law.

what would Happen If Free Coinage
Became Law.
Mr.. w. j. Bryan appeals for the sup
port of the farmers by telling them
that free coinage of silver would en-
able them to pay off their mortgages
more easily. Now, The New York
Press does not for one moment believe
that the American farmers as a body
desire to get free of their debts dis
honestly. We know of no body of cit
liens who adhere more rigidly to hon
orable principles, who cherish more
steadfastly business rectitude and
personal integrity than the American
farmers. We do not believe that the
American farmers desire to give back
SO cents in place Of 81 which they have
borrowed.
But, suppose that we admit, for the
sake of following Mr.. Bryan's argu-
ment, that the American farmers as a
class do wish to discharge their mort
gage obligations by paying so cents on
the dollar, then how will free COINAGE
enable the farmer whose mortgage OBJ
legations are payable in gold to get
rid of his mortgage by paying half the
value of the principal? Under free
coinage this farmer would accept in
exchange for his products silver dol
lars His whole income from all
sources would be in silver, but when
he came to pay off his gold mortgage
obligation 1t would require 81 Of this
silver to obtain 81 of gold with which
to make the mortgage payment. The
farmer would be compelled to go into
the market and buy gold with his sill
yer and to pay 100 per cent. premium
for the gold.
Now, every dollar that every farmer
in the United States takes in today is
good dollar, equal to a gold dollar,
and will be taken at par value with
gold for the payment of a gold mort
gage or any other obligation. The
farmer who today can take the money.
that he receives and pay with it his
mortgage, interest or principal dollar
for dollar, would be compelled, under
free coinage, when he made his mort
gage payments, to put up two silver
dollars for every dollar that he now
puts up.
If this sort of exchange is going to be
benefit to the American farmer who
pays his debts we fail to see how. Per-
haps Mr.. Bryan could explain it, but he
takes very good care not to explain 1t,
Just as he takes good care not to ex-
plain how the workingmen whose dol
lar will now buy 100 cents worth OF
anything is going to benefit them when
the purchasing power of the dollar
which he receives under free coinage
will be cut down ne-half.-New YORK

In November. as soon as the silver

doubt at all that Europe will return

these We have to pay gold or its

This will entail large export of the
gold we now hold or of commodities.
Gold will at once advance to a SUBJ
stantial premium. No legislation can
probably be made by congress until
well along in the summer of 1897 dur
ing which period our circulation will
be very largely depleted by export and
boarding. The return of securities has
got to be at very much below the pres
ent valuation ruling on our stock ex-

cent.
If we can avoid serious panic dur
ing such crisis we may regard our
selves fortunate.

stances we must look for great disturb

which will be felt by all, whether the
farmer, the laborer, the mechanic, or
the capitalist.
Capital can always take care OF It
self, and will feel the trouble the least,
as it can largely unload it's burden on
to others.
Now, legislation in favor of silver,
when it comes, must be at least from
nine months to year off, and at the
best it cannot do anything which will
speedily restore our circulation to its
normal amount per capita, as 1t takes
time to coin silver. the capacity or

$5,00O,000 a month, or $60,000,000 q

In no silver country is general la

No silver country has its securities

No silver country has good public

The Tariff Fraud With Which the Old
Parties Fool the People.

Revenue last year of the Mckinley law,
$I99, 7S4.e9I.
Revenue first year of the German
Wilson law, $I79, $50, 600.
Difference between the two systems,
$40, 434,99I.
Per capita difference between them,
80 cents.
And over this difference of go cents
these old party professional politicians
hope to get the people by the ears in the
next campaign. Mckinley has written
his tariff plank, which was promulgated
by the Ohio convention that put him for
ward for Presidential candidate.
Here are few lines of the fulsome
laudation of the Mckinley tariff, which
was not framed by Major Mckinley at all,
but by Dingley of Maine. Mckinley was
chairman of the committee that reported
the bill but is not competent to frame a
bill of the kind, so Cullom, of Illinois,
one of the Presidential aspirants, says.
At any rate the difference between the
two bills is only 80 cents a head. The
following are the lines we propose to
quote: I'VE are faithfully welded to the
great principles of protection by every tie
of party fealty and affection and it is
dearer to us now than ever before"
