A CONTRAST.

But One That smacks Considerably of
Irony-0old-Bug Decency.
1t is always a relief to turn from the
red-hot silver papers to the cool, placid
and philosophical gold-bug press. On
the one hand we have the torrid zone,
with its passion of color and its fervor
of sound; and on the other the blissful
repose, the dreamy ease and the dolce
far niente of Philadelphia 1t is like
escaping from St Louis to the Land of
Pure Delight.
Take up silver paper, and you will
find rude language, offensive epitEet
and coarse abuse; but in the columns
of the gold journal all is civilization,

Restore Silver.

The very best protection" we can
possibly have at the present time is
the complete restoration of silver. So
long as we must sell our wheat and
cotton and petroleum and many other
things in the European market on L
free trade silver basis, in competition
with the silver-using countries, those
staples are bound to be cheap, and the
producers of such things cannot afford
to pay higher prices for manufactured
goods. Restore silver and the price of
it will rise in the European market.
AS silver rises so must those things
sold on that basis. 1t will bring pros
perity to the agriculturist particularly,
whose labor constitutes the basis of
all industry He will be able to buy
the products of the factory at fair
prices, and thus the benefits will
spread themselves throughout the en-
tire country.-Bimetallis

WHY 1T FAILS.

An Eminent German Tells Ysh, Eo e
Iieves the Gold Standard Tn: re Fall
DR.. Otto Arendt, distinguished
member of the Prussian hDa i3 of tlcpt
ties and the Acknowledged leader o5
the bimetallists in the GaruIaB silver
convention of 1894, discusses THE Out
look for Silver" in the current number
of the North American Review, and
freely considers the chances of biusl
allism in Europe and America. i
reaches the conclusion that the I'd.
ton of bimetallism by ali the leadiu
nations of the world is not as far dis
tant as many people believe, and he
points out very clearly the serious mis-
takes of any country now saddliug
itself with the single gold standard.
Dr. Arendt points out why the gold
standard fails in very clear manner.
That universal gold standard might
be introduced is conceded, he says,
But that it is practically impossible to
obtain the gold necessary for that pur.
pose is to-day admitted by tine most
inveterate gold men. Accordingly,
the typical gold man of to-day always
demands the gold standard only for
his country. In London the say
ing is that England must adhere
to the gold standard, but that it is
very much to be desired that the rest
of the world should adopt bimetallism
But the gold standard man of Germany
| wishes to have his country in agree
/ ment with England on the money
standard. Austria Hungary does not
wish to depart from the German stand
ard, nor Roumania from that of Aus
tria-Hungary; and thus the present
state of affairs necessarily leads to the
extension of the gold standard, which
is everywhere recognized as dangerous
and impossible. le.-Duluth Herald.

MAAT Ii MEANS.


Free Coinage Of silver Would Make the
country Prosperous.
The free and unlimited coinage of
silver means that neither the president
nor his secretary of the treasury
would be allowed any longer to boy
colt the Ara 100000 of standard silver
dollars now in existence The power
that could ro-establish silver coinage
would compel the use of silver with
gold IN the redemption OF greenbacks-
This would do away with the false pre-
tense that bonds must be sold with
which to buy gold to redeem green
backs. 1t would remove the constant
menace by the gold gang that the le-
gal tender quality shall be taken
away from the vast amount of silver
dollars now in existence. 1t would
add enough to the money in circula-
tion in the country each year to keep
pace with the increase of population
and the requirements of domestic ex-
changes 1t would make all the silver
bullion in the world worth just as
much as though it were already coined
into dollars. 1t would stop green
backs from being presented for re-
demption at the treasury, because
Heidelbach, Ickelheimer & Co. and
the rest Of the breed of gold
speculators would be offered
silver when they demanded gold, and
they would not want it. Free coinage
would guarantee the stability of the
currency The grinding contraction
now going on would cease. The bor-
rowed surplus in the treasury of near
ly $500, 600, 900 would be expended in
grand public improvements, including
coast defenses, and thus be restored to
circulation among the people. II
would gradually raise the general
level Of prices. The production OF
wheat and other farm products would
be resumed on the former scale. Man
ufacturers of every description would
no longer engage in mere hand-to
mouth production, but would manu-
facture for the requirements of the
coming year, This would give worl
to those now in distress, and would
enable laboring people themselves tC
buy what they do now without going
under the harsh compulsion of pov
erty.. The commerce between As state

because they could again earn interes

something more. Free coinage woul'
stop the borrowing of money in time
of peace for the purpose of obtaining
gold with which to pay obligations no
