WHICH SIDE ARE YOU ON?
Some Test Questions for Undecided
Voters.


Are you opposed to sudden con-
| traction in the volume of money now
in use. A free coinage law would i'm
mediately drive out of circulation over
$500, 100000 in gold.
Do you believe in stable measure
of values which shall be fair to both
debtor and creditor? The 16 to
scheme would put this country on q
| f1uctuating silver basis.
Have you money in the bank or
loaned out 10 any one? Free silver
would cut the value of your savings In
two.
Are you prepared to abandon the
monetary standard which is used by
all the great commercial nations tn the
world and adopt that Of India. China
and other cheap labor countries? II
not, you should protest against free
silver.
Do You believe that common honesty
demands that debts contracted in 10l
cent dollars should be paid in money
worth as much AZ that which was boy
rowed? Free coinage means the re
pudiatinn n one-haR OF all obliga-
tons.
Do you know Of any way in Whfeh
men who are now poor can get rich
honestly, except by hard work? II
who are promising the people To make
them all rich by legislation which will
debase the currency.
Would you like to see capital ahund-
ant and interest low? Money is far
more plentiful and interest rates are
lower in gold standard nations than in
the silver using countries.
Do you consider it important to the
interests of trade and industry that
there should be no uncertainty in re-
gard to the basis of the country's
finances? Then you must oppose the
senseless agitation which is checking
the investment of capital and depress-
ing business
Would you like to see the purchasing
power of the workingman's wages cut
down one-half by a currency law
which should declare that so cents
worth of silver was dollar" Under
free coinage this country would have
silver recommendation, with doubled
prices for everything the workers buy.
Are you willing to bring ON f1nan-
cial panic, caused by the calling in
Of loans through fears of free silver re-
pudiation, merely for the sake OF try
ing cheap money experiments which
have always resulted in disaster? II
not, and if you want an honest dollar
and prosperity, you should vote and
work against all attempts to debase
the currency.-Whidden Graham.

simple Question For silver Leaders.

Who would be benefited by adultera-
ton Of the currency? Not the farmers.
They could not be better off if they got
two 50-cent dollars where they get now
one 100-cent dollar, and that is the Ut
most Tillman would be able to give
them. But the fearful contraction OF
the currency caused by collapse Of
standard money to the so cent cheap sill
yer standard would create such hard
times that for years workingmen would
get hardly more 50-cent dollars than
they get onw 100-cent dollars. How
would that benefit them? Neither Alt
geld nor Tillman hes ever explained
this simple question. - Chicago Tribune.
