THE CAUSE OF TIE PANIC.

Nothing of recent occurrence more
forcibly shows the value of extensive and
intensive advertising than the fact that
the Bryanites have by persistent repeti-
tion led con nsiderable number of people
to believe that the depression OF trade and
the disasters OF industry from which the
country has suffered for the past three
years have been caused by the demonetiza-
ton of silver il 1873
The facts OF our present condition and
those which preceded it are we'll known to
everybody. There was no depression in
trade prior to the election of Grover Cleve-
land and Democratic majority in Con-
gress pledged to free trade. When Mr..
Harrison was elected and entered office
with a Congress favorable to a tariff re-
vision in the direction of an increased
protective policy it injured no industry,
disturbed no business, and so far from
causing panic had the good effect of
promoting all lines of trade. The contrast
between the effect of the election of Har-
rison and the election Of Cleveland was
thus well and widely known, and yet in
spite of that general knowledge persistent
iteration and reiteration have enabled the
extreme free silverites to rally TO their
standard no inconsiderable num- ber of the
American people.
Fortunately for the country, as Thomas
Jefferson has said, Error ceases to be
dangerous when reason is left free to
com bat it. All that the persistence of
the Bryanites can do has been more than
offset by the earnest activity Of the more
intelligent portion of the community in
refuting their arguments by plain state
ments OF the well-known facts in the case.
We have been, ever since the succession
to power of the free-traders, suffering
under an industrial paralysis, but for
fourteen years before that our prosperity
was the greatest the world had ever
known. The products of the country in
creased steadily, pew mills were opened,
new farms were titled, new railroads con-
structed and the wages of labor steadily
advanced. II the demonstration of silver
in 1873 was IN any way the cause of the
depression that has come upon us. then
surely that cause was long time in
making its effect known.
The intelligence of the country recog-
nizes the futilIty of the arguments of the
Bryanites. No iteration or reiteration OF
folly can lead them to lay aside the testi-
mony of their senses and the lessons OF
their experience. They know when we
were prosperous and when that prosperity
ceased. They know that trouble caused
by free trade cannot be cured by free
silver. Such remedy, as Mr.. Depew has
said, would be as foolish as if man who
had swallowed potato bug should seek re.
lief by swallowing a dose of paris green to
kill it.

party at st. Louis declared itself Tor blmet-
aIIism by international agreement, and
that the law of the land embodied in the
statute of November l. 1898, asserts the
same doctrine, he went on to say that he
does not think 1t wise to let the men who
are menacing the good faith and integrity
of the Nation succeed in putting the Re
publican party and genuine bimetallists in
false position before the country.
The most important part of Senator
Boar's speech was that i'll which he set
forth the reasons which he has for believ-
ing that the Republican party will easily
succeed in bringing about an international
agreement for the free coinage of silver.
On this subject he said:
Bismarck, who closed the mints OF Germany
to silver in 1873, has declared in recent let
ter that he has always been desirous to open
them again when the consent OF other nations
could be had The present French Assembly,
N ore than three to one, under the leadership
of M. Meiine, the Prime Minister. has declared
itself in favor OF q resolution to the same Ell
feet.
In England, while the prospect is not so en-
couraging, it is well known that the great
financial leaders of the party now in power
are of the same way of thinking. Mr.. Balfour.
the First Lord OF the Treasury; Mr.. Gosc chen, the
great authority on all such questions; Mr..
Chaplin, one OF the most eminent members of
the Cabinet, and Sir William Molesworth, are
pronounced international bimetallists
While thus declaring himself emphat-
ically for bimetallism and giving reasons
for the faith that is in him of the success
full accomplishment OF such an agreement
hyf he WI n oi,11o or ho nst
decided in denouncing the folly OF the
Bryanites who propose to establish free
coinage by this country alone. That at
tempt, as he went on to show, would in
evitabiy result in silver monome talIism.
Gold would go out of the country, the cur
rency would be restricted to that extent,
and disasters would result to commerce
and industry more terrible than any one
we have ever known.
The speech of the eloquent and vener-
able Senator from Massachusetts, is most
timely in every respect. 1t comes as fair
warning to the extreme gold standard
men of the East that the victory which
is to be achieved at the polls this year will
be a victory for them. 1t will be tri-
umph for general bimetallism, for the
principle OF protection and for the main
tenance of law and order. The next ad-
ministration will carry out the well-set-
tied policies of the Republican party. 1t
will establish protection to American in
dustry, it will enforce the laws of the con-
stitution. and it will lead the Nation into
the paths of bimetallism from which bene-
fits will result and accrue to all the indus
tries of the earth.

INTERNATIONAL BIMETALLISM.

Senator Hoar, who has recently returned
from Europe. took occasion in an after
dinner speech at banquet given in his
honor, Immediately after his arrival
home, to make clear to the people of Mas
sachusetts that the issue involved in
this campaign is not choice between the
single gold standard and bimetallism. but
choice between genuine bimetaaism
based on international agreement and the
wild scheme of free silver coinage advo-
Gated by the Bryanites.

DEMOCRACY AND ITS LEADER.

The Democratic party in nominating
Mr.. Bryan for the Presidency broke away
| from its leaders, but did not violate any OF
its traditions. That party, while it has
been for some years under the control OF
conservatives, has never been conserva-
tive party. 1t has tried time and again to
release itself from the men who held it,
and what it has accomplished this year
has been simply what it thought TO do re-
peatedly in the past.
The radical declaration for free silver in
the platform of this year is not more ex-
treme than was the declaration for free
trade in the platform of 1892. The cry
against capital now is not wilder than
was the cry against capital then. The
platform OF 1892 said 1--WE denounce Re-
publican protection as fraud robbery
of the great majority of the American
people for the benefit of the few" With
this cry of fraud and robbery the party
was ready to enter that year as eagerly
as in this one upon a campaign of the
poor against the rich and labor against
capital.
La 1892, howeve r, the conservative lead
ers were able to hold the extremists in
check. Mr.. Cleveland, in his letter of ac-
ceptanee, took good care not TO lndorse
this radical cry of his party, He said in
his speech on receiving the notification of
his nomination: "Ours is not destruct-
i've party. We are not at enmity with4he
rights of any of our citizens. We are not
recklessly needless of any American In
terests." 1t was by that speech he rallied
to his support large portion OF the con-
servative element of the country and was
elected President.
Men said then 1.-The candidate is better
than the party" They believed Mr.. Cleve-
land to be strong enough and brave
enough to hold the lawless Democracy in
check. They did not foresee and could not
know that his party would soon break
away from him, and that his administra-
ton would be rendered futile and disas-
trous by the radical Democrats who OBJ
tanned control in Congress.
In Mr.. Bryan Democracy has leader
after its own heart. So far from endeayor-
ing to restrain his excited partisans he
has done everything which words can do
to make that excitement greater still.
Under his leadership the war of classes
has been precipitated upon the people so
far as Democracy is able to precipitate it.
What will be the outcome of his leader
ship of the party 1t is not easy to foresee.
Certainly he will never be elected Presi-
dent of the United States, but it is not
impossible that he may manage to retain
the leadership of his party and continue
| to be menace to the peace and well being
Of the Repu blic.
The dangerous leader of dangerous men
his course can hardly fail to awaken the
anxiety of true patriots. There is but one
way to deal with him and his followers.
| All conservatives, all who are interested
in law, industry and social order, must
unite to make head against what if al
lowed to go on may become something
| more than threat. Democracy has found
its leader, and now the battle must be
fought in earnest all over the Union.
