AFRAID OF TIE FUTURE.
Business Paralyzed by Free-Coinage Agt-
tatiOn.

tation.
The Wooden and Willow-Ware Trade
Review of April 10 offers the follow ing
explanation for the cause of the pres
ent unsatisfactory business conditions.
All business is done by the medium
of the existing measure of value. f
there are any doubts about the future
OF that measure, commerce grad uaily
approaches a stand5tin y Zen the
Sherman silver law was repealed, con-
fidcnce in the future began to return,
and it was expected that steps would
be taken 10 remedy the evils Of the cur
rcncy system under which the busine SIS
of tie country has been operating.
Stimulated by this view, some business
men l,.Gnci1td new enterprises and
started up cid ones. There was an atp
p@arance OF a revival in business u year
ago.
When, however, it was found that
there vas q small band of men, whose
whole future was based upon securing
the free coinage Of silver by the United.
States mints, i'll a position to block
every move made to insure the coptinu-
ance Of honest money in this country,
commercial people became nervous
again. They commenced 10 prepare for
financial trouble, which they thought
might come. This preparation involved
the withdrawal of loans, the cu1ta IL
ment Of manufacturing. the abandon
ncnt OF new projects a1ld the gathering
OF reserves. Thus manufacturing and
fering from gradual paralysis.
These conditions should convince
every bus ness man Of the paramount
Importance OF having the so-called cur
reucy question settled. just now one
of the most profitable things business
man can do is to use his influence AID
spare time IN working. toward currency
reform and impressing upon tie poT
ticans the fact kat the business inter
ests Of the country require sound
money. Our national politicians who
are now setting up the pins for rreai-
Dental election should take warning,
No candidate who is not in favor of the
gold standard ought to be elected pres
dent this year. Efforts should be made
earnestly in favor of it from being a
candidate upon either the democratic
or republican ticket.
Under existing restrictions we have
the largest and best binetallism ever
known III any country. We are using
silver equally with gold and more large.
ly than any country in the world ever
did when using gold at all. And we are
keeping ell these silver dollars on par
with gold. What the Missouri conven-
ton. proposes is that we shall abolish
the restrictions that have thus made b.
metallism possible, abandon the use OF
gold, reduce the value of money one
half, cheat all creditors, public and pri
vate, cut down the purchasing power Of
wages and substitute cheap dollar
recommendation for the honest dollar BIZ
metallism we have.
If there is any method IN this mad
ness it Is the method of men bent upon
the ruin of their party.-N. Y. World.

Bloomington, Ang. 5.-John b. Lemon,
of this city, is the general secretary OF
the .Journeymen Tailors' Union of
America. his Office having recently
been removed from New York city to
Bloomington, by vote of that organiza-
ton. He said:
II am a positive advocate of the free
and unlimited coinage of silver.
because, after careful consideration
and mature delberation, the trade

standard is to put more days work

more dollars for days work"
DR.. c. c. Van LEV is one of the most
distinguished members of the faculty
of the Illinois State University at Nor

II am for the free coinage of silver
at 16 to /, regardless of the wishes of
any other nation. I shall vote for

of the controversy are more or less
selfish-determined to a great extent
by personal interests. The banking
interests of the entire country, and the
commercial, and in part, manufacture
ing interests in the East, will undoubt-
eddy stand for gold and contracted
currency, because they conceive this
to be for the immediate interests. They
are probably right, from their re-
stricted point of view. The farming
and producing interests of the West and
South will probably stand for bi-met-
aliism and a volume of currency COM
mensurate with the demands of in
dustrial progress, because this is for
their immediate welfare. They are
probably right from their restricted
point of view. To wrong either debtor
or creditor is alike unjust and unde-
-irable.
But this is a question of the ulti-
mate economic welfare of the nation.
Herein the cause of free silver rises
far above questions of selfish and inn
mediate interest and seeks to recog-
nize the necessity of basing the wei
fare of the people upon the only foun~
dation that can possibly be permanent,
the stable and abiding prosperity of
the producing classes
Charles NJ. Pierce is one of the
brightest young lawyers of the Bloom
ington bar. He was up to the ST. Louis
convention an ardent Republican, and
until that time was an advocate of Me
Kinley, being an enthusiastic member
of the Bloomington Mckinley club.
He was present at the meeting last
night preliminary to the organization
of the Bryan Club, and on that occa-
sion declared that he was thenceforth
an advocate of the free coinage of sill

The Rev. DR.. Frank W. Gunsaulus,
pastor of the Pilgrim Congregational
church, of Chicago, and president of
the Armour Institute of Technology
in that city, has recently arrived in
Brooklyn, after visiting and studying
the States of Kentucky, Kansas, Ohio,
Indiana, Iowa, Tennessee, Illinois and
Nebraska.
He is at the St. George Hotel. He
is deeply impressed with the wide
spread feeling for silver in those local
tiles.
81 firmly believe" he said yester-
day, that if we were to have an cleo
ton tomorrow, Bryan would stand an
excellent chance to win. He must not
be laughed at in the East. He will
visit you here, and by the force of his
mental and oratorical power, will make
many converts. The men who are in
favor of free silver must not be set
down as wild-eyed and bewhiskered.
There are many among them of great
brains and intelligence. New York
