things threatening that should alarm
true patriots and call them to rally be-
meath the nag of the Republican party,
which always has proved and always
will prove equal to any exigency that
has or may threaten the integrity Of the
nation.
What then is the duty of true citizen
ship? 1t is first and foremost to see
that its ballot is cast for the Republi-
can candidate for the Presidency, and
next to see to it that the same ballot
counts for the election of Republican
congressman In this district COM
bined, malevolent and powerful assault
is made upon the Republican nominee,
Hon. Grove L. Johnson. It should be
beaten back, overthrown and crushed.
Aside from the wisdom of returning a
representative Of Mr.. Johnson's legis-
lative ability that the experience of one
term may better equip him for useful
ness in a second aside from the force
of the conceded fact that he is broadly
CdpdOlS, dSluS lIO1ll tic lcNl Siie@S AS Aiee''
proved an industrious, faithful and un-
firing representative of all the people,
he represents the Republican protest
against the dangerous, nay, the traitor
He will be in the foremost ranks OF the
Republican party in the next Congress,
the party to which the Nation in the
hour of it's present peril, as in the dark
ness of that from which the party
rescued the republic must now look
for the defense and for the preservation
of the liberties of the people and the
maintenance Of free institutions.
Let no Republican deceive himself; let
no patriotic citizen close his eyes to the
truth, that 1T will be small avail to elect
Governor Mckinley to the Presidency,
unless he is fortified in that position by
a Congress in sympathy with him. His
selection to the chief magistracy will
be of no avail unless he is backed by a.
Congress of his own political faith.
On the other hand, if such misfortune
should befall the country as the cleo
ton Of Mr. Bryan with all his fallacious
and revolutionary doctrines in view,
and his promises to effect the impossi-
BILE except at the sacrifice Of National
honor and the integrity Of free institu-
tions, a Republican Congress would
save the situation and prevent him from
plunging the country into the midst Of
the dangers with which he and the Chi
cago platform threaten it. From any
point of view, therefore, the election of
Republican Congress is Of equal i'm
portance with the election of Governor
Mckinley

IN THE HOUR OF DANGER.

At no time in the history of the re-
public since the war Of the rebellion
has it been more imperatively neces-
sary to send Republican Representa-
tiyes to Congress than at this time. In
deed we may well waive the exception
OF the war, since it must have been that
the national destiny was not to close In
the throes of q war waged TO perpetu-
ate human bondage.
At this moment the fate of free in
stitutions is menaced as they never
have been before, and to the Republi-
can party the country must look for sal
walton. The organized assaults upon
the national credit; the attempt to bind
the hands of the judiciary, which are
the bulwarks Of liberty, against which
unconstitutional legislation and usurped
executive power plunges in vain; the
demand that the Fedora; executive arm
shall be paralyzed to suppress incipient
rebellion and protect the people in their
Movement from one State to another
against mob law and the attempt to set
nm a dictatorship-these are some of the

A PERFECTLY FEASIBLE PROPO-
SITION.

The proposition which recently found
expression in these columns for increas-
ing the volume Of the circulation of
silver to the fullest need and demand of
the people and the necessities Of the
country is receiving in many quarters
the copmendation and Endorsement OF
the thoughtful and patriotic citizenship
of the country. We believe in the largest
possible volume of circulation of silver
money that can be attained consistent
with the maintenance Of the National
credit, the payment Of high wages to
the industrial workers of the country,
and the broadening Of the protection to
American production and industry that
is now an imperative need.
How can this be attained? Will free
and unlimited coinage of silver at 16
to 1 do it? 1t sthe Judgment Of the
calm thought of a vast number of the
most devoted friends of the country that
it will not; that at best such policy
would be but an experiment fraught
with extreme danger. If the just de-
mand is for greater circulation Of silver
money, as it is, ii may be had without
throwing open the mints to the issue Of
a cheapened and shorn coinage with re-
duced purchasing power. But how?
By a system which the Republican
party may establish without infringing
upon the declarations Of the platform
adopted at st. Louis, and that will find
IN ha iI1d dcr-
ment of the land. Let all the silver
coinage of the nation be made legal
tender for all debts and all purchasing
power to the extent Of 500; let there be
no issue whatever Of gold paper. or OBJ
legation based on gold, or Of gold coin
less than $50. For convenience Of hand
ling, one silver bill might well issue of
the denomination Of $50. Then let the
silver bullion now In the treasury be
sent to mintage on this basis.
Thus silver to the full need of the
country would be forced into circula-
ton and the per capita Of domestic
money would be augmented; money
would be plentiful, for there would be
at once S100,000,000 more of silver is
sue put out than at present and at the
same time our money necessary for ex-
change in foreign commerce would not
be obstructed, diminished or given un-
due value.
As we have said, there is not only
nothing In this proposition antagonistic
to the declarations Of the Republican
party, but it will aid and assist in the
attainment of the international agree
ment which the party is pledged to in
dustriously conserve and hasten. We
believe that here is a solution Of one
problem Of the times, one that taken
with wise protection Of American indus
tries will restore prices, insure indus
trial activity, and re-establish conf
dence, which after all Is the true capi-
tai of the country.

distinguished and valiant Democrats
of the Nation, Hon. E. ]. Phelps, whose
patriotism, courage, scholarship, polit-
ical sagacity and far-seeing wisdom
have made him one Of the foremost
publicists of the Nation.
Mr.. Phelps was a student with Hora-
ito Seymour; from 1861 to 1858 he was
second Comptroller of the Treasury of
the United States. He has held the en-
inent position Of President of the Amer
lean Bar Association and he is author
of several standard legal treatises. In
1880 he was Democratic candidate for
Governor of Vermont In 1881 he was
called to a chair in the faculty of Yale.
In 1880 he was United States Minister
to Great Britain. He has become very
prominent also as a lecturer upon the
Constitution Of the United States, and
as publicist and writer on political
economy and patriotic topics he is
among the foremost of the time. He
was born in 1922 and is a native and
still resident of Vermont.
Expression from such man upon the
politics and policies of the day COM
mands respect and is worthy of
thoughtful and calm reading. The
letter which we reprint is really an
earnest address to the patriotic, liberty
loving and devoted friends of American
institutions, and is such a document as
should serve to arrest the dangerous
and unpatriotic tendencies of the times.
It is letter from foremost, tried and
trusted Democrat, who does not depart
from the principles and traditions of
his party but strikes manly and Wig
orOus blows in their defense, and warns
his party fellows of the dangers with
which the Chicago platform and it's fol-
lowing threaten the Nation.
