\ lame man was once approached
by a stranger who asked him il one
of his legs was not too short. He
very promptly replied that it was
not. On being urged to explain
what was the cause of his lameness
he finally replied that one leg was
too long.
This is just what the great histo-
rian, John Clark Ridpath, says is
the trouble with the finance of the
United States. He says silver has
not deprecated, but gold has up
preciated or advanced. The fol-
lowing are extracts from his pen:
LAS a matter of fact the uncoined
silver in the American dollar will
buy more of the average of our
great staples than the same would
buy in 1873. What then: The
limited supply of gold in the world
has been cornered by those who
own it. They are very few-very
few-and the people are millions.
The price of the cornered gold has
advanced more and more, until il
has become worth almost two for
one. All the while coined gold has
concealed the fallacy that is in it.
The gold eagle still proclaims itself
30, although it has advanced in
purchasing power until it is nearly
$40. Under this obscure and fraud
ulent process all productive indus
tries have been crushed to the
earth. They who labor in the fields
and shops have been virtually
ruined. The claim that gold is the
sound money the honest money
of the world, and that silver money
real, primary silver money, ON
our old statutory ratio-is dishon-
est and unsound money,is the most
false, as it is the most adroit, prop
osition ever put forth by interested
parties to defraud the people of
a great nation"

SATURDAY, JULY II.
No nation can call itself
free and independent that
cannot make and maintain a
financial system Of its own.
A WICKED PLOT.
A Washington dispatch is in

A Washington dispatch is in
substance and effect az follows:
The banks of the country are 10 be
used as instruments to force
the people to stand up and vote for
the single gold standard. The
scheme is for the banks to refuse
accommodations to parties who
are not in favor of gold standard
and to force the payment of all
obligations against all parties who
are for free silver.
The plan originated in Louisville
where the banks have reached a
mutual agreement that advocates
of free coinage who do banking
business shall be refuscdall pecun-
larry accommodations. The fact
cannot be disguised that this
arrangement mus, necessarily
entail hardship. and perhaps ruin
in many instances.
Sinmered down to "a plain basis
il amounts 10 nothing more or lees
than boycott imposed by the
banks upon those business men
who antagonize their methods. In
Il community where a majority of
the voters are in favor of free coin
age the result of such boycott
must be Immediately evident.
Those already indebted to the
banks must pay their obligations,
and will find it impossible to secure
extensions. Inability to do this
will drive many to the wall, while
others who contemplate the under
taking of new enterprises will be
unable to raise the funds with
which to prosecute the work.
The prosecution of this plan will
of course stir up the bitterest feel
ings, aud may easily result in the
most dreadful consequences 10 all
concerned.
The veIy existence OF such
scheme is a virtual acknowledge
ment that the gold standard is
wrong, but by such schemes as the
above do the gold bugs expect to
carry things high handed. Ameri.
can people love liberty, however,
and the plans of the gold bugs
must fall to the ground.
