OUR SILVER CIRCULATION.
We Have More Than Amy Othor Country
but India or China.

We Have More Than Any Othor Ccrntry
but India or China.
What wild talk is this Of the silver
ties convention Sin faycr Of restoring
to tho people of tho United States the
tine honored money of the constitution
gold and silver--nct 1asn, but bothf'
The constitation prescribes no such
mo,.ey, nor any form Of money what
ever.
But il IL is 'gold and silyor-not
one, bat both''--that they want, why
are they not contentcd now? Both gold
and silver are in circulation now, on
equal terms. in lager quantities than
ever before In the 22 years since tho
blood curdling "crimc OF 1878" was
perpetrated more than so times AS many
silver dollars have been coined as in the
80 years preceding.
i The simple fact Is that tho United
States has today a very much larger ac-l
tual supply Of full legal tender silver
money than any other country in tho
world, excepting India and China. and
a larger supply in proportion to its pop.
ulation than any other, excepting
France, Spain and Holland. 1t has more
gold in circulation actually than any i'll
the world, excepting only France, and
more proportionately than any Euro
pean country, excepting Great Britain,
France and Germany. 1t also has more
money Of all kinds in circulation and
all at par than most nations of the
world.
Less talk and more reflection would
convince these would be currency re-
formers that we already have what they
talk of as 1.-THE time honored money Of
the constitution" in abundant supply
for every man who is willing honestly
| 10 earn it.--New York Tribune

In case free coinage Of silver should

sink at once 20 the silver basis. and
these checks and drafts would be paid
in silver dollars or their equivalent, as
Is now the case. presume no enc sup

Under our existing system all silver

CONGRESSMAN DENNIS VOTE.
Editor Democrat-Stur

Editor Democrat-Star.
The many comments, pro and con,
upon the vote Of Il Congressman,
Hon. w. NJ. Dcnay, on the Senate
free silver bill, proclaim the import
ance OF IA single act as affecting ma
tional finances, party interests and
official integrity or craftsmanship.
The highest qualifications of Il truly
worthy Senator or Congressman, Is
exempted by official acts that promote
the greatest good To the country at
large and vindicatc the craftsmanship
OF his party, rather than by tic truck
cling to the vote-catching clamor Of
III ignorant constituency.
The last Congress eXempliied its
dcmagoguery over craftsmanship and
its ability to bring the party into bad
repute by so many OF It's members,
following the dictum OF a clamoring
constituency with an eye to popular
support, and how many Of such now
realize that the places that knew them
in Washington will hereafter know
them no more forever. The good,
common sense Of the masses, have
little respect for ever a Congressman
that proves himself to be a fawning
demagogue.
That Congressman Denny is in line
with the craftsmanship OF his party,
with the greatest industrial and com
mercial interests OF the country, and
true to his convictions before nominal
tion. during the campaign and up to
the hour Of his departure for the Cap
ital. do not admit of Il successful
denial.
The populistic, communistic, vote.
catching tidal-wave, started by Office
seeking demagogues prior to the last
election, has collapsed into Il very low
tide, and is no longer recognized as a
factor in the approaching national
campaign Of either of the two great
political parties. in some locations
an effort at agitation will be kept up.
AS among the Coxcyites and Debitcs,
that, and nothing mure.
Consistency as well as craftsmanship
views, is an essential qualification Of
a worthy official and party leader, and
without which no man can increase or
maintain his influence for good. In
this. our Congressman has been true
to ''his cOlOrS." Being on the right
track from the start, lie has not been
compelled to switch off on a new track
us many others have done.
1T is now reported that the consist
ency and craftsmanship Of Congress
man Catchings so commend him to
the extreme silverites that they are
urging his reelection to succeed him
self, and so may it be in the case of
our Congressman Denny.
There is a growing need for this
district to WELD a strong influence in
