TO THE BOw-WOWS WITH COM
PROMISES.

The information that comes from Ken
lucky IS that the free colners ana the
sound~money men in the Democratic party
propose to fight the question out to a I'M
ISL and either party Will take all or lose
all In the State Convention. senator
blackburn said to reporter Tor the
Washington Post last Monday:
MY attention is being daily called 10
statements made in the newspapers all
over the country of compromises, either
agreed to or pending, between the gold
standard advocates ana those VINO thInk
with me in Kentucky. These misrepre-
sensations are so numerous. ana come
from so many different quarters, that /
desire TO answer once for all.
mo compromise or adjustment has ever
been OffeSed from the gold men TO me- l
surely have never suggested one TO them.
| never saw my way clear to compromise
a principle. and in this case 1 have no
desire TO make the experiment. IN the
coming state Convention in Kentucky, the
issue between the gold monometallists and
my people will be definitely ana fnally
settled. if my counsels shall prevail with
me there Is no middle ground.
II sincerely hope that the Democratic
Convention in Kentucky will send n dele
cation TO Chicago pledged TO restore Sill
yer at the ratio of IL to !. This is far
more important than any personal ambi-
ton OF my own"
And we hear the same thing from every
other quarter.
This is as it Should be. Let us have no
more trimming and compromises. II the
majority Of the Democratic party Is for
free silver, then let the National Conven-
ton adopt free silver for the platform.
Let it be straight and unmistakabie, with
no straddles. or language that can be
read in two senses.
We hope, also 10 see the virginia Dem
ocratic Convention do the same thing.
II the Democracy OF Virginia Is for free
silver. let our convention say NOBODY
but set OF triInmers wants the State
Convention to dodge the issue. All or us
want to knew just where we stand, so
that we may determine what course TO
pursue.
Down with compromises, ana straddies,
and lodges. GIVE us a straightout platform
OF one sort or the other.

| ticaily nothing but our land and little
| farming stock. We had TO make that
| property the basis OF our banking system
1 or we had 10 be without one. The act
] OF Congress In effect forbade us 10 make
| II the basis OF a banking system, and We
nave consequently had 10 get along as
best we could with practically no banking
| system at all. The injury that fact mas
caused to the people OF the South In the
past thirty years Is beyond computation.
II has kept the great masses OF our people
bound down, with their noses TO the grind
stone, until they have become almost
revolutionary in financial way, and are
willing TO tic themselves on TO any fad
that Is advanced that holds out any sort
OF prospect of relief to them. That is
the Source whence tho strength of free
silver In tho South has arisen. and, as We
said few days back, If the voters OF the
south overthrow the financial system OF
tho North and bring on IL the ruin that
would follow in the train OF free silver.
1t could easily have nipped this danger
Gus heresy in the bud by simply according
TO the South the right to have its banks
based upon such property as the people
nave. and we should all the time since
the war have had an abundance OF cur
rency, the South's condition would have
been altogether different from what II
IS. and free silver, instead OF being popu-
lar in the South, would have had no
friends here at all.
the consideration which has moved the
northern people to denying us this essen
tiai TO peace and prosperity here is, in
erect, as gross Il financial heresy as the
Souths infatuation for free silver. 1t
has come to be q northern financial fad
10 consider the national-bank system the
most perfect one that that can be devised
because st furnishes a bank note that will
circulate at par in every part OF the
Union. But the national-bank system IS
based upon the national debt. and If the
notes 1T puts out are unalloyed blessings
1t follows that national debt must be
''N"-''''ts
tional-bank system cannot exist without
a national debt. But everybody comedies
that q national debt is national curse,
and is 20 be paid off as soon as may
be. What sort OF an unalloyed blessing
then, Is that which depends for its exist
once upon an unalloyed curse that is to
be destroyed as soon as possible? In fact.
the national currency is anything but a
blessing. as plainly appears to those who
understand its operations. As the letter We
have referred 10 explains. when the cur
rency OF the country circulates equally In
all parts of the country, the country bank
will Inevitably send their reserves to the
New York banks. which always allow them
interest upon them. This scalps the whole
country of currency. and circulates 1t in
New York. so that your note that is as
good In one part OF the country as it is
In another, leaves that one part OF the
country and goes to that other. where II
can make interest, and the country is
thus kept bare Of a medium Of exchange.
