out of the house of your friends or your
parents you are sent discredited, what Is
your condition?
Our friends say to me, 1t is true the ratio was
all right up to 1878, but we only coined about
So, O00, 900 up to that time Aye, but We had
the civil War during that period. If 1t is an
late during that period, why is it not an
equal argument against gold, whleh old not
circulate, either?
There never was system more unJu silly con-
structed than our present financial laws. What
are our greenbacks? Simply promises to pay.
What are our bonds? They are simply prom
ises to pay.
deem every dollar we have promised to pay.
But when we made contract in the bright
light OF day to pay In coin, say when the
bankers and the syndicates present their
greenbacks. let US say TO them silver is our
coin.
When we have all been summoned hence
perhaps some other circulating medium than
gold or silver will have TO be used. Gold is
already greatly consumed in the arts and
sciences
The statement that there is limitless silver
in the earth has no ground except IN appre-
hension. 1t is an old expression of the miner
that one man can see as far into the earth as
another. If silver is worth to the mining man
at the mint 81 %, will il not have some value
to the labor1ng man too? Can it have higher
value TO one man than another?
Let me reeapitulate these three propositions.
First, it cannot be denied by any one who is
arguing in good faith that we had bimetalllsm
from 1892 to 1873; second, that during that
time the amounts of the metals huctuated
greatly; and third. that during that time the
ratio of 1513 ana 16 to 1 was maintained with
out business embarrassment. Ever since 1878
all the products of the soil have been going
down. Previous TO 1898 history shows US that
the prices OF products went up. There have
been constant fluctuations in commercial
values of money. but the prices of agricultural
products have invariably followed SILVER,
giving as pathetic an indication as inanimate
things can that they were destined to die to-
gether.
If the action of this Government will appre-
ciate silver, if France was able to maintain Is
to l when the fluctuations were greater than
they are now. l do not see why this country, so
much greater and more populous, cannot act
independently.
Ny Republican friends. only two years ago
you criticized US because you said were
Rping England when we wanted little lower
tariff. l do not believe in inveighing against
any foreign country, but If we have not the
power to maintain g financial policy of our
own, then we must abrogate the functions of
government.
According to the letter of their bond let the
than we have promised. We have no margin
for generosity, but if have, let it be given to
those OF our own people who so grea tly need it.

Labor CruClfed.

If the single gold standard can be
forced upon South America and Asia,
as it has been since 1873 forced on
North America and Europe. gold must
inevitable appreciate to at least four
times its present absurd value or, to
put it otherwise, commodities must de-
cline to one fourth of its present price,
and labor, all the world over, be cruci-
fed as it was never crucifed before
in days of medieval serfdom or even
chattel slavery. Such is the contest.
If the money lords can force gold mon
ometallism upon the whole world, they
will succeed in establishing the most
gigantic moneyed aristocracy among
the rich and the worst system of espeon-
age serfdom among the masses that has
ever cursed the hapless sons of men,

Bond Slavery.

John Ruskin, the greatest of living
philosophers, in analyzing the charac-
ter of bonds, says: Bonds bearing
interest are the purchase by the rich Of
the power to tax the poor.
And it's true.
The bonds issued by Mr., Cleveland
prove it. They are tax on the pres
ent generation to be bequeathed to the
latter's posterity.
What condition they placed us in!
More than thirty years ago this great
nation repudiael chattle slavery and
in d war of blood and burning homes
established the. right of such action.
To-day we III all sections admit that
the nation was right. The South con-
cedes rs much. But there is another
slavery that must be abolished We
want no men killed to do it, and no
homes burned, but the emancipation
must come 1t is the slavery of bonds.
All such is againstpublic policy. Bond
issues, in times of peaces are the
schemes of rich thieves, gilt edged
syndicates and money cornerers tC
fleece the people.
Away with bond slavery.
The people have chance this yeal
to make the very thought of such ac-
tion crime. Will they take advan.
tage of it?-Nashville Sun.

Sick-poison is q poison which makes you
sick. 1t comes from the stomach. The stomach
makes it out of indigested food.
The blood gets it and taints the whole body
with 1t, That's the way of it.
The way to be rid Of it is to look after your
digestion.
If your food is all properly digested, there
will be none left in the stomach to make sick
poison out Of.
If your stomach is too weak to see to this
properly by itself, help it along with few
doses of Shaker Digestive Cordial.
That's the cure OF it.

Good Cause for Alarm.

Still another feature of the Cochran
episode is the fact that when he returns
to England he expects to take seat in
the British parliament, and he will
doubtless make his brief remarks in be-
half of the British gold standard sort
of stepping stone to political prefer
ment in Great Britain. If there are
any of our readers who do not believe
that the results of the political contest
now going ON in this country are of vital
Importance to the British interests, let
them open their eyes and read the fol-
lowing from the London Financial
News
The financial situation i'll the United
States is very serious. The senate has
blocked all relief measures proposed by
President Cleveland, and congress is at
dead standstill on the money ques-
tion. The free coinage senators are
masters of the situation.
This condition of affairs in the Uni
ted States congress demands the i'm
mediate attention of British fnanciers
and statesmen. The trade of the world
is now in our hands, but it will not
long remain there if the United States
goes to bimetallic basis with free and
unlimited coinage of silver.
With the addition of silver to the
volume of money everything in Ameri-
ca would take on new face labor and
industry would gain new life. The
grip of the gold standard on the pro-
ducts of the world would be loosened
and prices would rise, Great Britain
would lose her markets in South
America, Asia and Europe, and Ameri-
can bottoms would not be long in
capturing the carrying trade of the
world.
British creditors must now apply
themselves quickly to the American
/ money problem. The sound money men
and banking interests, led by Senator
Sherman, Cleveland and Carlisle, with
plentiful supply of means, have been
beaten. The American people are now
thoroughly aroused and educated on
| the power and use of money, and made
desperate by debt and business depres-
sion they are forcing free silver as the
main issue.
Observe the nature of the warning |!
"This condition of affairs in the Uni
ted States demands the immediate at
tention of British financiers and states
men !" "British creditors must now
appl V themselves quickly to the Ameri-
can money problem"
Does any sane man doubt that the
British millionaires and British credi-
tors understand the situation equally
as well as the editor of the London
Financial News does Can it be
doubted that Mr.. Bourke Cochran has
as many clients in Great Britain as he
has in New York City
But more than this, it will be seen
that the London Financial News has
very clear ideas as to the results of
silver coinage in this country. "With
the addition of silver to the volume of
money!" says this candid British organ,
Everything in America would take ON
a new face; labor and industry would
gain new life. The grip of the gold
standard on the products of the world
would be loosened and prices would
rise"
Let the people without regard to
party stand shoulder to shoulder in this
great movement to free the products,
the business and the industries of this
country from "the grip of the gold
standard" a.- .l..

Answer to Armour.
The following letter recently appear

The following letter recently appear
ed in the Fort Wayne Journal
Camp Silver, August 10, 1896.
Messrs. Phil Armour & Co.. Chicago.
Friend Phil-Your offer of so cents
worth of meat and Mexican dollar in
exchange for an American dollar re-
ceived, but can do better with our
home butcher. He offered so cents
worth of meat and So worth of Portu-
guese 3 per cent. gold bonds in ex-
change for q silver dollar.
Our butcher says the bonds must be
good, as Portugal has had o gold stan
dard basis since 1853 twenty years be-
fore the other enlightened nations of
Europe) and its national debt has only
increased 100 per cent. since that date.
Average wages paid all artisans in Por-
tugal is II cents per day.
In your former letter you told me
that all we needed was little gold, i'm
proved banking facilities" and econ
fidence."
Portugal has q "little gold," the
world has had its improved banking
facilities" since 1868, and / can supply
confidence" so the bonds are GER
tainly good.
Our home butcher says he will con-
tinue to give so cents worth of meat
meat and $2 of Portuguese gold bonds
after Bryan is elected. Will you con-
tinue to give so cents worth of meat
and Mexican dollar after Bryan is
elected? Yours truly,
JOHN FAIRPLAY.
P. 81 see the London Times quotes
Mexican bonds at "a J Portuguese
per cent. gold bonds at 26 !.
1t might be just as we'll if Phil Ar
mour and other larded millionairs
would confne their object lessons to
themselves. There is no more reason
why Armour should undertake to in
struct his employees and others in
finance than there is why his employees
should undertake to teach him correct
ideas in that science. The Mexican
dollar object lesson is about as glaring
fraud as was ever attempted to be
palmed off on the people. The Mexican
dollar is not legal tender in this coun-
try, and consequently nobody cares to
bother with it. Just how this sort of
thing has anything to do with the Am
erican dollar and free coinage in the
United States is not apparent. The
inference that this country would under
free coinage sink to the level of Mexico
is an inference purely touse no harsher
term. The Mexican dollar object les
son hardly rises to the plane of joke,
and it is not worthy the serious consid-
Grafton of full grown men.-Commer-
cial Appeal.
