The following is a list of all the nomina-
tions which have been filed with the
County Clerk
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-09-10

National Democrats read with in
dignation, Bryan Democrats with
pleasure and Republicans, intelligent
ones, with dismay, the editorial in the
Pioneer Press commenting on the cleo
tons in Vermont and Arkansas. The
first were suffering the pangs that
come from separation from comrades
of years of struggle, compelled to part
by their conviction that duty to coun
try was more imperative than duty
to party. They had gathered in ma
tional convention to proclaim anew
their old faith, conscious that their
action might cause the defeat of their
old party. They had gone farther on
the line of patriotic duty, and. by
naming for the candidate for vice
president one who had borne arms
under the Confederacy, they proclaim
that at last sectionalism, the fierce
hatreds of the war, the bad days of
North against South, had passed
away, and that the old Union was re-
stored in all it's integrity, in spirit as
war cry Of the days of reconstruction
came to make them feel more than
ever the danger if the people should
restore to power a party containing
men who could, in such times as these
raise the old spirit of division and
hatred
For precisely the reasons that this
editorial aroused the indignation of
the National Democrats, it excited
pleasure in the minds of the Demo
Gratis who adhere to the Chicago
movement, for they knew that it was
slap in the faces of those of their
FORMER comrades who had refused to
go with them, and would act as a
repellant on many. Intelligent Renub-
hcans were dismayed. They are broad
enough to recognize all the conditions
OF these troublesome times. They
could see that it was a time to sink
the partisan in the patriot. Tbev saw
that men were aligning themselves on
new lines; that the old ones were OBJ
liberated, and that nothing but harm
could come from any attempt to re-
V1ve them. They are quite as en-
phatic in their condemnation of the
article and the spirit displayed in if
as are the National Democrats.
Whether they view it from the low
point of policy or from the higher
one of patriotism, their reputation of
1t Is general. In the name of the Ma
tional Democrats and of these Re
publicans, in the name of our good
city and the Northwest, in the name
OF the cause in which we are enlisted
we enter our protest against this ont
burst OF partisanship this wall of the
spirit of days that are happily de-
parted forever.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-09-10

freedom to exchange and buy and sell
In the worlds markets, and no man is
free to buy who has to go to money
changer first and pay two dollars of
the money of his country in order to
get one dollar Of the money Of the
country where's he would buy. That
is not free trade. 1t is restricted,
hobbled, protected trade. So Mr.
Garter shows that. If he is not states
man he has that common sense that
can tell hawk from a handsaw. And
he shows the same quality in his recog-
milton of the fact that. obscured as 1t
may temporarily be by this silver dust,
the question Of free trade is involved
In 1T, and that he Is fighting free trade
in fighting for free coinage. A very
level-headed man is Tom Carter, Of
Montana
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-09-10

That is wages in 1891 were as 1907 to
1883 in 1873, which is an advance over
1873 of about 8 per cent. While since
1860 the fall of prices has been only
rs per cent, the fall of prices since
1873 has been about "a per Get. Labor
ers have gained doubly: % by a rise
in the gold paid them since 1873 by
per cent, and (O by a fall in gold prices
of articles they buy Of "a per cent.
Under the existing gold standard,
therefore, the workingman has largely
improved his position. But free coin
age of silver would be sure to destroy
his chance of employment, and injure
as well the merchant who sells to him.
3. The silver standard, if we should
have it, would f1uctuate so violently
that no one could at any time know its
real purchasing power In 1876 silver
varied over Is per cent in two months;
in 1886, between May and July, 10 per
cent; between September 1890 and
March 1894 there occurred an extra
ordinary fuctuation Of so per cent In
fact, in every silver-using country,
there Is a constant worry over the
changes in the standard How will
such standard effect wages? 1t is a
Well-known statement in economics
that when prices change wages are the
last to go up, and the first to fall. This
Is based on past experience. In the
table above, during the fluctuations of
paper-money in the civil war, 1852
1866, wages did not rise with prices.
Take 1854 for illustration In gold the
laborer was receiving only 80 cents, as
compared with 100 cents in 1860; while
prices had gone up % per cent. While
paper money had been issued in album
dance, his wages in gold had fallen 20
per cent, and in addition the goods he
bought had risen 20 per cent That IL
the way in which fluctuations in the
standard bring ruin to the innocent
workmen, while those of experience
know how to get out of harms reach.
The lesson is clear; the workman
should do all in his power to preserve
inviolate a steady and stable standard.
Let him shun as poison all experiments
with changing standard
