Senator Faulkner was in Wash
ington City, Thursday, attending
to the work of the Democratic
Congressional Campaign Commit
tee of which he is chairman.
He heartily endorsed the Chica-
go ticket and platform and pre-
dicted that West Virginia would
give Bryan and Sewall a big ma
iority.
The state he declared was enthu-
siastically for silver, especially the
Second, Third and Fourth Cong
ressional districts.
The Senator explained how the
Congressional campaign commit
tee proposed to carry ON it's work
so that it would be useful to all
Democratic candidates for Congress
whether silver or gold men.
"The province of this commit
tee," said Senator Faulkner, will
be to aid the election of every can
didate for Congress upon the regu-
lar Democratic ticket. We have
nothing whatever to do with the
nomination for Congress and will
take no part in the contest for
After the candi-
dates are selected, however. it will
be our business and we will see to
it that all aid possible is given in
the election of those candidates.
We will take it for granted that
the Democrats of each district
know what they are about, and we
will not question their selection.
1t will make no difference to us
what the platform may be upon
which the candidates are selected"
"Then if a Democrat is nomina-
ted for congress and wants gold
campaign literature you will fur
nish it to him?" Senator Faulk-
ner was asked.
"If he asks for such literature
and we have it, he will get it. AS
| said before, we want to see the
regular Democratic nominees for
congress elected, and every effort
of this committee will be bent in
that direction"

Restore silver.

Silver has always had much to
do with the price of wheat, and it
continues to do SO. So long as In
dia continues to be great pro-

the price of silver regulate the
price of wheat. AS it is, the Eng
lishman can purchase silver at the
rate of about fifty cents on the
dollar, coin that fifty cents worth of
silver into an Indian dollNr-pur-

him fifty cents, and land it in Liv-
erpool at cost to him of fifty

to its position as money of final
redemption, and it's bullion value

with gold, and will take a dollar i'll

CINCINNATI, o., July 16.-The
Enquirer publishes this story:
1t is favorite claim of the gold
ties that gold is the money of the
world and that a man can take
American gold dollars to England
and get their full value in British
money. A short time ago Mr.. A.
j. Thorpe, we'll known insurance
man of this city, who has only re-
Gently been converted to the silver
cause, went to no less than seven
Cincinnati banks and asked them
this question: Suppose | should
send $4,000 in new full-weight
American eagles to the Bank of
England, would they give me $780,
600 for the same? None of the
Cincinnati bankers would give n
satisfactory answer to the question
and Mr.. Thorpe wrote to a leading
bank in New York and received
the following reply:
New YORK, July 3, 1896.
"MR. A. j. THORPE, Cincinnati,
DEAR SIR:-In reply to your en-.
quiry we beg to say that IL you
sent $4,000 perfectly new, full
weight American eagles to the
Bank of England the bank will not
nav $4,000 for the same, as they
have no dollars in England, but
will give you credit for the pure
gold that is in the shipment in
pounds sterling 81 price fixed for
gold, i. g.. 50 and so many shillings
and pence per ounce.
CIR fixing this price the bank
does not pay for anything but the
pure gold that is contained in the
coin, i. e., per cent, and does not
pay anything for the 10 per cent.
copper alloy. We give you this
for your private information"
"This knocks the underpinning
from the fellows who assert that
our money-is taken at its face val
ne all over the world" said Mr..
Thorpe to the Enquirer. There is
no such thing as money of the
world, only materials of which
money is made. Gold is simply
taken at it's bullion value, measur-
ed just as so much corn or wheat
or pork would be"

He is a foreigner of anarchistic
proclivities. Charleston Evening
Mail, Republican.
This Republican organ is edited
by u gentleman who held Office all
his life in the Democratic party
until the day came when he could
not get in again and he is now en-
gagged in abusing Democrats. His
principal objection to Atgeld is
that he is foreigner; that is,
when he was boy. God. permit
ted him to first see the light in
Europe. None know better than a
foreigner" what despotism is.
Perhaps the same just God inn
planted in his young bosom ha-
tired of slavery and despotism that
now impels him to stand up and
fight the great Trusts and Mono
poles that are crushing out the
vital forces of our people, and
against which even the Republican
party passes resolutions but never
execute them. There are a great
many foreign born gentlemen in
Charleston who are an ornament
and benefit to the Capitol City,
and who doubtless will enjoy the
insidious fling at Governor Atgeld
on account of his foreign birth.
We challenge the editor of the Mail
to show a single utterance of Gov
ernor Atgeld that even squints at
Anarchy. But we will call his at
tention to the fact that Herr Most,
the great Anarchist of New York
City is gold-bug and is for Nc
Kinley because he knows that n
continuance of the gold-bug policy
will surely lead to Anarchy in this
country, and what an Anarchist
most needs and demands and works
for is Anarchy.

Tie Republican Compaign Text
Book, 1904.

i
We have been giving some exs
cellent Republican endorsements
of the free coinage of silver and
here we give another.
This one is an extract from the
Republican Campaign text book of
1894. These text books are gotten
up by the committee and are in
tended to be used as hand book
for party speakers. In the book
mentioned above we notice the fol-
lowing under the head:
"Bonds of the United States"
"Mathews's resolution declaring
them payable in silver, passed the
Senate Feb. 10, 1878, yeas 40, nays
20; passed the House Jan, 80, 1873,
yeas 1870, nays 10 introduced in
the Senate by Senator Stanley
Mathews of Ohio. Resolved by
the Senate, the House of Repres-
entatives concurring therein, that
all the bonds of the United States
issued under said acts of Congress
herein before cited, are payable,
principle and interest, at the OPP
ton of the government of the
United States, in silver dora of
the coinage of the United States
containing 4129 grains each of
standard silver; and that to restore
to its coinage such silver coins as
legal tender in payment of said
bonds principal and interest, isnot
in violation of the public faith nor
in derogation of the rights OF the
public creditor"

MIR. EDIToR; L have been fire.
quently asked for my views on
what is known as the silver ques-
ton. After such careful examina-
ton and investigation as / have
been able to give the subject, |
have come to the conclusion that
the restoration of our silver dollar
to the place that it occupied in our
monetary system prior to the 18th
day of February, 1873, is the only
remedy that we, the farming ele-
ment, in this country, can apply to
the ills that nffiict us. OF course
that means the free and unlimited
coinage of silver and the making
of our silver dollar primary and
standard dollar. Such is now the
case with gold and | can see no
reason why we should not recognize
silver in the same way.
1t is certain that ever since 1873
the price of farm products and the
value of lands have steadily and
wonderfully declined, and the farm
ing element of our country has
been at the mercy of the gold bugs
of England and New York. / have
seen too many of my neighbors'
farms sell for prices that few
years ago, that ten, fifteen or TWEEN
ty years ago they would have boot
ed at the idea of being compelled
to take, to now keep silent.
Taxation and interest are still
high as ever, whilst the products of
our farms and the value of our
farms have gone down, down, down!
1t seems that the language used
by the great Blaine in 1880, fits
the case exactly. He said "the de-
struction of silver as money and es-
tablishing gold as the unit value
must have a ruinous effect on all
property except those investments
which yield fixed return in mon
ey." Has not his prediction been
verified? Who can deny it?
The salaries of our officers were
mostly fixed in 1870 to 1872. Those
salaries remain the same but every
thing else has gone down. Now, l
am in favor of that system which
will pull everything back to where
it stood years ago, or the salaries
of officials must be cut down.
[ do not wish to enlarge upon
this subject. l am farmer and
am free of debt. | owe nothing
but what [ could pay on short no
tice, but | see that the whole ten
.dency of financial legislation has
been to drive value out of my farm
products and my land.
/ believe that the reconciliation
and free coinage of silver and n
greater circulating medium for our
people in the way of money would
bring about better state of affairs,
and for that reason [ will vote for
no man who is not in favor of my
views upon this question. Not
withstanding / have always here
tofore voted the Republican ticket,
but when [ see Senator Sherman
and President Cleveland standing
shoulder to shoulder in favor of
the gold standard, and therefore in
the interests solely of gold-bugs of
the east, pndethe money changers
of Europe, L have concluded that
it is time for me to vote for that
which will best promote my inter
ests and that of my friends.

An Inquiry.

Here is an inquiry propounded
by socialist, and we do not know
how to answer it: eff, when wheat
was worth 81 90 n bushel and labor
was $500 day, man went into
debt for 81 900, and regularly paid
the interest charges, and now the
debt is due, wheat is 80 cents a
bushel and labor one dollar day,
and the creditor defends existing
conditions by saying that one dol
lar of today is the equal of two
dollars when prices we're high, why
should he not in law and morals,
take $500 for his 81 900 debt? For
according to his own declaration
he is getting back all he loaned.
