Ex-Governor Waller, of Connecticut,
who has always been stanch Demo-
crat and who is one of the most promi-
nent members of the Democratic par'J-
in the East, has come out fiat, footed
for Mckinley and Hobart.
In Democratic caucus, last Friday
night, when Mr.. Waller was severely
criticised for not supporting the Chicago
ticket, he said
civilian Jennings Bryan said that
he would not be Democrat il gold was
adopted as the standard of the party,
and that no action of any convention
could bind him in the matter. There
are many Democrats VINO realize the
danger that threatens us fully as we do,
but are not yet decided as to what course
in this emergency, in duty to their
country, they ought TO take. | can sym
pathize with the feeling that compels
| them to hesitate | do not mean to ad-
wise them to vote for Mckinley il they
| think there is some other way in which
they can as efficiently help to defeat the
ticket Of Altgeld and Tillman, populsm
and reputation.
But if / could have my way in the
struggle with those who are assailing
the honor and credit Of the country, !
would nefcal them by the election of
Mckinley 10y such an unprecedented
and overwhelming majority that Nc
Kinley's success would have no political
significance, and thai would bury sec
tinnalists Socialists Ponulists and reDu-
diators too deep for resurrection until
the last trumpet OF Gabriel, who sum
moncd them TO receive their deserts"

-Ronrka Cochran having made

-Bourke Cochran having made u
speech that no silverite can answer, is
attacked in the Democrat advertiser as
follows:
w. Bourke Cochran, who demanded
$3.50, 900 for his eloquence during the
campaign, is to receive $3.50, 900 from the
Republican managers. This mercenary
orator was turned down by the Demo.
Gratis for adequate reasons and is as fond
of money as Judas, but he ought to get
his pay in gold, instead Of silver.
There is not bit of evidence offered
In substantiation of this charge, and it ia
fair to presume that there is none. A
man who suddenly goes back on all the
principles he has professed and his party
has taught for years, is II great deal more
likely to sell himself than one who stands
by bis old belief.

The Truth Is

That this country has not suffered the
| "incalculable woesn attributed to it by
Bryan and his friends since 'the crime of
1878" From 1850 TO 1870, we advanced
in national wealth from 81, 900, 900, 900 to
$50, 900, 900, 900. an increase OF 1923, 600,
900, 600. From 1870 TO 1890 we advanced
from $50, 900, 900, 900 to 800, 900. 900, 600,
an increase OF $35, 900, 100000
That since 1873, while the producer
has seen falling values, the laborer has
seen rising wages The purchasing pow
err OF wages is 80 per cent. greater now
| than it was in 1870.
That while the free silver advocates
dwell upon the decline in prices OF what
| the farmer sells they say nothing about
| the decline in prices OF what the farmer
buys. The farmer sells to. day cotton,
corn, bacon, lard, beef, butter, cheese, etc.
| He buys sugar, tea, coffee, sheeting,
shifting, print cloths, ginghams, carpets,
nails, iron, glass, molssses, etc. The re-
| duclion in price OF these farm products
taken together is 26 per cent, and the
average reduction in the other articles
named is So per cent. Thus it will be
seen that while the farmer loses 90 per
cent. on what he sells, he gains So per
cent. on what he buys.
That the whole number Of silver dollars
coined in The United States from the or
| ganization of the Mint in 1902 down to
1873 was only 8,045, 1888, and for more
than twenty-five years preceding 1878
they had not been in circulation at all.
Between 1873 and 1890 under the Bland
Allison act we coined 42l, 776, 408 silver
dolars, and under the Sherman act OF
1890 we purchased 1913, GA, 632 ounces
OF silver bullion, represented by $780,
93l ,002 in silver certificates. making al
together $57T ,707, 40 of silver coinage or
purchase in fifteen years. TO make this
clearer, says the New York "Commer-
cial Advertiser" it may be said that in
single year, since 1873, the Government
has done ak times as much for the silver
dollar as in nil the eighty odd years before
that dividing line, and altogether within
this period during which silver Ia repre-
scented as prescribed tho Government has
coined or provided for seventy-two times
as many silver dollars as in its entire pre-
vious history
That no interest has been so well
guarded as silver by this Government
during the past twenty years. 1t has
been securely protected even while the
price has fallen from $l20 to sixty
cents an ounce. The bullion value Of
n silver dollar has fallen from ninety
three to less than flity-three cents. Yet
Notwithstanding this fact this Govern
ment has purchased and coined nearly
5000, 0oG, 900. While every treasury in
Europe was closed against silver the
United States, ut loss OF about $780,
OOv, 900, protected it 10 this country.
Everything has been pledged to secure it,
even the Governments credit. Yet the
silver men say the country has done moth
ing for silver. Slate Gazette.

Prices of all domestic sizes OF anthra.
cite coal have been again advanced by the
coal combination, making stove coal 81. 90
per ton, and chestnut and egg 1925 at
New York shipping points. This is an
advance within one year of from 81. 25 to
81 80 per ton, in the face of a largely di-
minished volume OF business and con.
tinued fall in general prices throughout
the entire twelvemontb. And yet the
coal mining and carrying companies con-
tend that there is no combination to keep
up anthracite coal prices.

The best definition of good money that
has ever been given is that OF the late
Henri Cernuschi, the ablest advocate of
international bimetalsm of the present
generation, in the following terms: at
is by the ordeal OF fire that money may
be tried. The coins which, when melted
down, retain the entire value for which
they were legal tender before they were
melted down are good money. Those
which do not retain it are not good
money"
