VICTORY!

Regarding the glorious result of
Tuesdays election. the Detroit
Evening Journal says:
80 1t is a great victory, gloriously
won!
The national honor is sustained;
the national sovereignty unmistak-
ably reasserted by the American
people.
A mighty protest against the de-
basement of our currency, against
the reputation of honest debts, "a
gainst the prostitution of the
federal courts, and against the in
famous ante-war doctrine of state
supremacy, has been registered at
the polls.
In its spotlcss purity. high above
the reach OF those who would lower
it in humble submission to state or
mob rule, the old flag still waves
'oer the land of the free and the
home of the brave. thanks to Al
mighty God, the Republican party
and patriotic Democrats.
Proclaim it to the world
that IS nation we still
command the respect and admlra-
tion OF all nations; that our honor
and credit are preserved and in
sured against threats or conspira-
cieS, present or future.
Praise God from whom all bless
ings flow, at all times; and at this
particular time praise Him for this
deliverancc from the evils of Bryan
ism, which is, or was. the embodi-
ment OF all the dangerous isms that
have threatened the public welfare.
All that this 'irrepressiblc con
fiict between right and wrong has
cost. in fearful forcbodings. in pat
riotic efforts and sacrifices. in DAYS
and nights and weeks and months
of anxiety and suspense. is compen-
stated an hundred fold bS the demon
strated loyalty of our people to the
government of their fathers; to the
republic as il is, with its honor I'M
furnished and its integrety I'M
broken.
Hail. Mckinley; Bryan. farewell.

"Iutr,nslc value"

The theory that gold has an inherent.

weight with any thinking man. Why
should gold alone. Of all the substances
on earth. be unaffected by the Law oil
supplv and demand, II shipload oi
men were cast away on desert island
and found a thousand tons Of yellow
metal. but no food. would they not
gladly give a ton for one box OF bread
Suppose they found the sand was al
gold. but there was one little patch o.
earth where they could raise garden
would not that little patch be OF more
value to them than all the rest OF th'
island, The gold would be drug OF
the market" no one could use 1t and NJ
one would want 1t.
The price OF gold is no more intrin
sic and no more permanent than an
other value. except as the demand Tor
Is steady. The coinage value set upol
the metal by the governments OF tn
