" Jack Republicans"

This is the name given to the boiler
Democrats who have decided upon a
separate organization as the best
means OF aiding their lifelong enemy,
the "plutocratic" party, into power.
That they are Republicans to all in
tents and purposes is evident from the
confession OF the leaders of the bolt,
as reason for opposing separate or
ganization that it will endanger the
chances OF Mckinley and that third
ticket is only means of preservation
OF party record" by stalwart lying
after election. In other words it is
talk Palmer, vote Mckinley.
The word "jack," it will appear on
reflection, is quite appropriate. A jack
is a machine for lifting immense
weights, and if Mckinley isn't heavy
weight on Republican shoulders, there
is no meaning in the term. A jack is
a continuance to pull off boots, and
nobody can appreciate the convenience
OF such an instrument OF relief or its
appropriateness as a smile, as those
who have suffered from the excruciat-
ing agony when the pedal covering is
pinching ones corns till his very soul
is aiame. A synonym as applied to
the jackass is so fit that comment is
unnecessary. A jack-daw is a small
crow noted for its noisy, imprudent
and thievish propensities; a jack
snape, an impertinent upstart; a
jackal, wolf that feeds on carrion
jack-a-dandy, a little, impertinent
foppish fellow; jack-atall-trades, a
man who works at all callings, and is
master OF none; jack-apinch, fellow
that is used in emergencies as
" forlorn hope; jacko'lantern, an ignis
fatuus that lights anybody who fol-
lows it to the dismal swamp. Then a
JACK, amid simpler mechanical APP
plsances is wooden frame on which
wood is sawed; a wooden wedge used
by quarrymen to split rock; a small
measure for elevsting" beer, and a
mark set up for attack in wicket.
There does not seem to be any limit
to the meaning OF the word as fair
index of the character of those re-
calcitrant Democrats who spouse the
cause OF the enemy against the regu-
larly expressed will of the majority OF
their lifelong adherents. Jack Re-
publicans let them be, and let us jack
them up SO high in November that
they will be ground to dust in the
inevitable fall.

viii demonstration Raise ValuesP

A friend of the STANDARD Gays that
in conversation with fair. minded
Republican, the other day, he made
the statement that if he could be con-
WINGED that reconciliation OF silver
would make it worth one hundred
cents on dollar that he would ioin
the silver party, and asked us to essay
the task of teacher.
If the subject OF contention was
whether reconciliation OF silver by
the reinstatement of the silver dollar
as the unit of value, would increase
its value to 100 cents" on a dollar,
the answer is simply that any standard
measured by itself must OF course be
equal, and if the law again reads that
" Dollars or units shall each contain
37I4 grains of pure silver" its parity
with 100 cents, form of words used
simply to denote parity, is of course
established. But it is probably that
the inquiring Republican means to ask
whether full reconciliation of the
white metal as redemption money
would cause silver bullion to appre-
ciate in value to 129, the point it held
when the change was made to the gold
standard. 1t would undoubtedly, with
free coinage, rapidly rise in value, and
soon attain a point coincident with
the coin it could be converted into by
simply applying at the mint. 1t must
be understood that the price of all
commodities, and silver among them,
would appreciate in almost exact pro-
portion with each other under the new
standard of measurement of all values.
Gold would probably put OIL airs and
hide itself away for time, but if Wall
street could see no way OF breaking
down the Gordon of popular sentiment,
if it made up its mind to give up the
attempt to secure control Of the
finances Of the nation, and confine it.
self to legitimate business, it would
not be long until gold would again
come into circulation to earn some
thing for its owners, for it wrings the
heart of the rich man quite as severely
as Of the poor man to lose money, and
he would surely do this by cutting off
a prolific stream of gain. France
maintained a parity between the
metals for IS years, and our nation is
much stronger than that nation was
when she undertook the task. The
rapid decline of silver upon closing
the minis Of India in 1898, can be at
tributed to no other cause, after the
stability of the metal had been weak
ened by adverse legislation of other
countries, including the United States.
1t stands to reason that similar causes
produce like effects, and if a removal
OF the mighty power of law is followed
by immediate decline, that its restora-
ton will be just as surely succeeded by
Strengthening OF the vitality that
owes its existence solely to law. This
proposition seems so plain, that we
hope our fair.minded Republican
friend will be able to see the subject
through the STANDARDS eyes and get
into the band wagon before the pro-
cession passes.
