TO NEAT JERRYl NA,NAl

EDITOR GAZETTE: Since the meeting of
the congressional committee have heard
some criticism of their action in placing
the date of the convention in August.
1t has been remarked that it was move
in the game played to beat Jerry for the
nomination. 1 am slow to believe there
was any insincere motives in the COM
mittee in deferrlng the convention till
after the national convention at ST. Louis
A move to beat Jerry, some sayl And
why should there be any desire in any
populist to beat Jerry. If it can be
said Of any congressman "well done," it
surely applies to Jerry. Why should
there be any desire to try a new horse
when the old one works 80 we'll. We
have in Jerry man Of national reputa-
ton whose council will be felt in any
legislative body. The time is about gone
by for calling him curiosity. Heis rec
ogniZed all over this land as q man Of
great ability. He has outlived the ridi-
cule placed upon him by the plutocrat
press aud came out with flying Colors
Oh! but l hear some say, we want free
silver man. Has not all the peoples
party conventions since 1890 declared in
favor of restoring silver at 1G to /?
Hasn't Jerry voted in that line every
time he had chance? He certainly did.
Then what would be the object IN try
ing some new recruit, some untried man.
Why go in the dark? Why try expert
ments?
Oh! but some say, we want to concii-
ate some one, You see? Jerry is such a
hard hitter the other fellows don't like
him. We want somebody they don't
hate quite so bad. Mr.. Editor, concilla-
tiOn will work in this matter like fusion.
1t will end in confusion. While it may
do in some instances what is claimed for
it, it will drive the straightOut into
spirit of resistance and they will give
the ticket a lukewarm help.
1 am in this more for principle; have
no special AK to grind; l don't believe in
any compromise; I don't believe in sur
rendering anything to the so called silver
party. If there is such party and they
are honest they can fiud Il good home
among the populistS. They need not go
to the trouble of erecting new struc-
ture. One is built on good foundation,
the corner stone of which is reform. 1t
has stood the storms of many campaigns
and is ready for another.

Berlin. Tne consul said in the stocks
of gold coin nearly every other nation
was represented but comparatively to
very insignificant extent. However
there is nothing very remarkable about
this fact. Most of our gold has gone
to Europe while we have been selling
bonds and plunging ourselves hope
lessly in debt trying to keep it in that
most foolish way. Our interest obli-
cations TO Europe takes more gold
than we can produce. II is the case of
a man verging fast toward bankruptcy
and borrowing money to pay interest
on money already owed. 1t is only a
matter of time when the inevitable
smash up must come. Our only hope
is in using another money for payment
-One that we can get, and get without
borrowing ard bonding. Even ad-
mittlng the gold hugs argument, that
it is dishonest and payment of only
half the deb.-which never should be
admitted-it is better that we pay half
the debt than to 90 on as at present
until We are not able to pay any at all.

IN ANOTHER column we print let
ter from Attorney H. Fierce, on the
silver question. Mr.. Fierce is al old
soldier, man of quiet ways, who has
given his attention to his profession
and seldom mixed in politics. He bas
been a passive republican all his life,
but as will appear from his letter, the
thought that this issue is uppermost
and above party has quietly insinuated
itself into his mind. Read his letter.
Here he lays down the gauge of battle
for any who will. Mr.. Fierce is also a
believerin the principle of government
ownership of railroads.

COUNTY CONVENTION.

A delegate convention of the peoples
party of Reno county is hereby called

Senator BAKER in the United States
Senate. In opposing bill to prohibit
the further issue of bonds without the
consent Of Congress. He said: "a
government long without reserve can
not exist. A free people will not long
submit to such conditions. A revolu-
tion will come, peaceably 1 hope, fore.

CONGREs sMAN Broderick of the 1st
congressional district is reported as
saying "The republicans will go in
this time with a whoop and a rush aud
in about two years the people will be
complaining to them, too" Broderick
is square man who usually sees and
does about right and his only fault so
far as we have been able to learn is
that he has allowed himself to get into
such relations with republicanlsm that
like the man in the story who had the
bear by the tail he needs some one to
help him let go. He sees where the
beast is taking him and the country
but he fears if he let's go at present he
will be devOured of it.

would have their business increased in
transporting such machinery. and the
wOrkmen to, aud The ores and minerals
from the mines. Cities would spring
up in those mining regions where they
are now strangers and unknown; and
all this would create demand and
furnish home market for the products
of the farm and stock raiser; and the
wealth, the silver, that now lies buried
under the single gold standard law,
would be brought forth, utilized and
distributed among the people in ex-
change for their products and labor
The single gold standard law offers no
inducement for such state of affairs.
1t is admitted by the advocates of u
single gold standard that such a law
would make silver money plentiful,
but they contend that 1t would be
''cheap money" because, as they argue,
enough silver bullion to coin a silver
dollar, could be purchased for fifty
cents in gold. Now If this be true,
how could that injUiOusly affect the
masses Of the American people? The
great majority of us are debtors, not
creditors. If the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio with gold
of 16 to l, will enable us to procure one
hundred cents in silver for an outlay
of fifty cents in gold to pay off a dol
lar of our indebtedness, how could it
injure the masses of the people?
Clearly, NOT at all. Then, let every
one who believes In its principles,
speak in their favor; and let those who
are unsettled in their views on the
subject, think of it for themselves as
they would think of any other business
proposition; and when this is done,
my word for it, the great majority of
the American citizens will be in favor
of the free coinage of silver.

A GREAT debate has been stirring up
the tOusled senatorial heads at Wash
ington. 1t was over the bill to take
from the president his more than kingly
power to sell mortgages on a free peo-
pie without the consent of their repre-
sentatives in Congress. Half dozen
of these sage senator's declared that the
present panicky conditions are due to
the silver agitation. What blessed,
benefcent splendid system this gold
standard autonomy is that it can't be
talked about out loud but the whole
fabric shakes and trembles, stocks go
tumbling, banks crack, children 90
hungry to bed and bankruptcy Weilds
the scepter in the land. Speak in
whispers ye citizens of America when
you mention silver or you may shake
the foundations of prosperity.

WHAT is probably the most destruc.
tive cyclone in the history of American
storms passed over st. Louis Wednes-
day night at about five o'clock. Ow-

meager particulars can be gained, but
the killed are estimated at over a
thousand. OF the steamers at the
wharf all but one went to the bottom
with nearly all on board. The great
Eads steel bridge is damaged and some
reports say that two spans were de-
stroyed. Fires broke out and the de-
partment answered fourteen alarms as
best it could in the wrecked condition
of things. The destruction of life and
property seems to rival that of the
great Charleston earthquakes.
