THs SILVER COMBINE.
HOW THIS wICKEDEsT OF ALL TRUSTS
HAS DICTATED LEGISLATION.

Editor Democrat.
The sugar trust gave u cheaper sugar.
The standard oil trust gave Us cheaper
oil. The Steel rail trust gave u cheaper
rails. The silver combine, with the VIII
SOn-Gormsn tariff, have closed our
wooden mills, put out the fire under our
forges, and demoralized business gener-
ally. our imports have been more than
doubled since lN,8, and our exports
fallen OIL. The revenue has been in
sufficient 20 pay the expenses Of the
government.
At the opening OF the present CON
lress President Cleveland asked for re-
EFF. He suggested short time three
or cent bond. The finance committee
70 the house, under the lead of Ex-Gov-
rnor DiOgley. framed a tariff bill i'm
losing duties on luNuries sufficient TO
meet the deficiency, and the Republican
house passed il and sent il 10 the senate.
The senate j. controlled by the silver
combine, and they at once offered an
amendment which was finally adopted,
compelling the government o. take all
silver offered and coin it, making IL
ounces of silver equal ! ounce of gold,
when In the markets of the world il
takes 81 ounces Of silver 10 equal al
ounce Of gold.
The house declined 70 be a party 10
such dishonesty, aud authorized the
secretary Of the treasury 10 issue short
time three per cent bonds TO relieve the
Immediate needs of the treasury, but the
free silver combine in the senate refused
this relief. With them il was free
coinage of silver 10 TO l or nothing
Now what is free coinage OF silver 10
tot: ANY person or corporation can
take IL ounces Of silver 20 the mint aud
have il coined into +l2 IL grain dol
lar. having 81 - grains of silver left.
At the market value of silver to-day, his
dollar is worth only fifty-three cents,
and as the government coins il on &C
count Of the individual or corporation, its
responsibility ceases when IL delivers the
coin 70 the owners OF the silver, there
fore the coin i Of NO more value than the
market value of the silver IN it.
But the president was determined 70
maintain the integrity OF the govern
ment, and found that under the act Of
ISIS he could issue five per cent bonds,
which he did, and saved the government
from dishonOr and the treasury from
bankruptcy. Does not the course OF
the senate "smsck OF anarchy: Rule
or Ruin is its motto.
The Chicago convention in view of the
controlling influence In the senate, franz
ed their platform with the view Of ar
raying the masses against the classes,
labor against capital, license under the
guise of personal liberty against gov
ernment, anarchy against law and order,
appealing 10 mems passions instead OF
their reason, expecting thereby TO STAN
pede the country. But the people who
were deceived in 1882 will not be caught
in 1896.
