ANOTHER BRYAN SOPHISTRT.

One Of Mr.. Bryans remarks in his plea for
| free-silver coinage at Madison Square Garden
was this:
The silver dollar is held up to the gold
dollar by legaltender laws and not by redemp-
ton in gold because the standard silver dollars
are not now redeemable in gold either in law OF
by administrative policy.
In another part Of the same address he said:
The retirement Of the n eenbacks and Treasury
notes would not protect The Treasury. because
the same policy which now leads the Secretary
of the Treasury to redeem all Government paper
in gold when gold is demanded. will require the
redemption Of all silver dollars and silver Ger
tifcates In gold if the greenbacks and Treasury
notes are withdrawn from circulation.
This latter statement is confession that the
former is only half-truth. Consequently, any
conclusion drawn from it must be false. Mr..
Bryan himself says that silver would have to
be redeemed in gold if the present policy of
maintaining the parity of the metals was to be
continued, in case greenhacks and Treasury
notes were not in circulation to accomplish the
same purpose. The silver dollar is not legally
rcdccmablo but the Government accepts it for
public dues, gives its creditors the choice of
silver or money directly md legally convertible
into gold. and thus makes il perfectly easy to
get silver dollar or a silver certificate turned
into a coin note for which gold can he obtained
1t throws obstacles in the way of converting
silver into gold. If it did. the silver dollar would
dcpreciate as measured by the gold dollar by
Just so much as II cost TO overcome that obSta-
Gle. Moreover the silver coin is issued only
in limited quantity and circulates in a meas
IRE on faith. If its parity depended solely on
its legal-tender quality there would be no parity
as there was none during and after the War,
when grcenbacks were not yet redeemabe in
gold. but were nevertheless legal tender. If
Mr.. Bryan thinks that legaltender laws alone
make different kinds of money equal, he should
study the table Of gold premiums previous to

Mr.. BRYdN WAS RIGHT.

A correspondent calls attention to the fact
that the Juvenile Declaimer in his select read
ngs at Madison Square Garden the other night
carefully rcfralned from referring to the chi
cago Convention as Democratic Convention, or
to himself as a Democrat.
That was quite correct. Mr.. Bryan is not a
Democrat At least he says he is not. ana we
suppose he does not in his speeches bear false
witness against himself. though he did in his
paper against others. He said publicly ex-
pllcitly and emphatcally. less than six months
ago. IL am not Democrat" His acts and ut
teranccs since have convncingly borne out the
truth of that declaration.
Nor was the Chicago Convention Democratic
Convention. save in name. 1t defed the coun-
sci of the recognized leaders Of that party. IL
refused to commend the Administration OF the
only Democratic President since the War. 1t
adopted a platform directly opposed to the prin-
cpes and precepts of Jefferson. Jackson and
Tilden 1t woull be adding insult TO injury TO
call il Democratic.

every beggar he meets. Yet 1t would be just as
logical as bis present proposition. that because
silver was once coined free at 16 to / under GER
tain conditions it should always be coined free
at that ratio under entirely different conditions.
Neither is 1t worth while to do more than call
attention to the demagogic appeal with winch
his argument closes. This dark act or 1913,
he says, "handed out cheap silver to the INDUS
trial people as being all they needed, all they
deserved and all they could get in payment for
their daily work" When the day comes that
the money paid to the industrial classes Tor
their daily labor is not equal in purchasing
power to the best money known 10 the world
it will DO ample time to discuss the dark act
which brings about such condition OF AFFAIRS

money Republicans and Democrats OF the coun-
try are bending all their energies.
