cessible to Senator Jones previous to his
great speech in $780, from which the
above data are taken. 1t must not oe
| forgotten that the Phila. Record, bitter
| opponent, says of Senator Jones' statistics
that they are entirely reliable. Since
1890 gold has risen yet more. until one
dollar now will buy about twice as much
as it would in 1878. Which is the more
stable metal ? That which has preserved
its purchasing power nearly unchanged,
or that which has constantly increased In
value until it now buys about double it
could buy in 1878. Which is the cheat
money, that which requires debtor to
sell no more of his products to pay debt
incurred years ago (sHch as our vast
national debt, much municipal debt and
the great body of debt secured by mort.
gage> than his creditor sold to obtain the
money he loaned. or that money which
has doubled in value since he borrowed
it, and is yet increasing? That is the
issue of this campaign. As there is CON-
fidenoe in the honor and Justice of Amer.
loan citizens, SO there is confidence silver
will win. Respectfully yours,
J. WALTER PANcOAsT.
[Our correspondent occupies q good
deal of space to prove little, and he
assumes to give to silver q value that 1t
does not possess, and no amount OF fine
spun theories, invented by Senator Jones,
or any other silver producer, to catch the
unwary, can render a depreciated cur
rency safe money for a great nation.
The facts are that the gold dollar is the
standard of the world, and the United
States, the most enlightened nation of the
eartht wants currency the equal of any
other nation, and of which a dollar will
be good anywhere around the world.
What Is most needed is protective tariff
! to afford the wage-earners and producers
an opportunity to get some Of the dollars
that are now boarded in the banks. We
have given his article space, to afford 8
contrast with the sound money theory OF
finance, and every rational and unbiased
reader will readily see that back of the
free silver advocacy is the old greenback
idea of fiat money. That falsity was
exploded years ago, and its twin sister
will meet like fate in 1896. The Gov
ernment doesn't make money, but only
oertifies to its value. and no man gets a
| dollar without giving value received, and
to have silver dollars as thick AZ the
leaves of the forest would not benefit the
people unless they had opportunity to
earn some of them.-ED.1

The denomination of Congressman
Loudenslager, by the Republican Conven-
tion of the First District, at Wood
bury, yesterday, has been foregone
conclusion for some time, and while it is
a departure from the custom that has
been in force siuce the district was formed,
SO far as we know, it ought to be in the
direction of better service. Mr.. Louden.
slagcr has made an excellent representa-.
tive, and with the knowledge of Con.
gressional duties which his two terms of
service have given him, ought to enable
him to be even more valuable to the
country and his constituents during the
next Congress. session that will be a
most important one. Whatever shall be
the outcome of the Presidential election.
additional responsibility will be thrown
upon Congress to maintain the national
credit, and by wise legislation seek to
place the business of the country again
on prosperous basis. With the i'm.
portance that has been given the free
silver craze and the cause of population.
by being made the rallying cry of one of
the great parties in the Presidential cam.
paign. the demands of the agitators will
be carried TO the halls of Congress, and
it will require wisdom and ststesmanship
to Withstand these assaults and safely
guide the Ship of State amid the breakers
without harm to some of the great inter-
ests that compose the cargo. The situa.
tion is grave one, and for this reason, if
no other, the nomination of tried candi-
date is wise decision, and will be
heartily ratified by the people. 1t was
the immortal Lincoln who said it was NOT
wise to "swap horses in crossing the
stream" and this is the situa tion in the
First District and the motive for Con-
gresham Loudenslager' denomination.

A manufacturer in Boston. Massaehu-
setts, the other day gave his employees a
sensible talk on the subject of free silver.
1t was in effect this: "My own and your
welfare depends upon the credit l can get
at the bank. cannot get any pay for
months. To pay your wages must Dor.
row money. The banks are full of money
belonging to other people, but the officers
will not lend on any security unless they
are sure that they will receive back from
me money as good as they lend me to pay
you. If banks are suspicious they will
refuse me the money and 1 must dis
charge you. All this talk about free sill
YER makes those who lend suspicious. Do
YOU understand ?"

Ex-senator Winton, editor of the Ber
gen County Democrat, and who was a
delegate to the Chicago Convention,
boldly repudiates both the candidates and
platform. In an editorial since his return
from vacation in the West, he says that
"the adoption of a platform of repudia-
tion and spoliation makes pitiful climax
to the old Democratic party. The sue
cess of Bryan and the carrying out of the
platform of repudiation would make a
harvest for the lawyers in foreclosure
suits such as they never dreamed of. The
triumph of the Populist party means
national dishonor. 1t will be the trium ph
OF the worst form of Socialism. Any
Democrat is welcome to support the plat
form and the candidates of the Populists
who captured the Chicago Convention if
he wants to. But we decline to follow
the lead of Altgeld, Tillman and Bryan.
They are not Democrats they do not
represent in any particular Democratic
ideas or Democratic sentiment, and we
will have none of them" The article
then calls attention to the declarations of
the New Jersey Democratic State Con-
vention, says that this and the Chicago
platform are irreconcilable, and therefore
''The Democrat parts company with its
Democratic contemporaries who have
elected to support the ticket as made at
Chicago"

The convention of the United States
League of Local Building and Loan Asso-
Citations at it's session in Philadeldhia last
week adopted resolutions declaring une-
quivocally in favor of a sound currency.
One of these resolutions declared that
"the dollar bearing the mint mark of the
United States shall oe equal to the dollar
of the most advanced nations, and en-
titled to full faith and credit all over the
world; and to that end it must be main-
tanned from all suspicion of debasement
or repudiation; the interests of every class
in the community, and especially those
of the great wage earning class, impera-
lively demand that every dollar in circul-
tion, whether coin or paper, shall be
equal in purcbasirg G power, and therefore
equal in value, to every other"

~A petition was presented to
the town trustees of Jasper at their
meeting Monday night to extend
Fifth street west from Clay to
Buchart's lane. 1t will cost the
tax payers of the town about 81 900.
Would it benefit the general public
that much? The COURIER thinks 1t
would not, and that if the town has
surplus in the Treasury to spend
it could be more proftably expend-
ed in other ways. When the gen.
eral taxpayers Of the town realize
that they must pay more taxes for
this kind of thing they will begin
making their wishes known to the
Trustees. Putting the present
streets in better condition would be
more profitable than making more
streets to keep in repair.
