what History Proves.

To those of our readers who believe
that the republican party did a great
and good act in resuming specie pay
ments we submit the following bit Of
history taken from Sir Archibald ALI
sons History of Europe:
The suspension Of specie payments
by the Bank of England in 1897 led to
the use of an enormous amount Of
irredeemable paper money.
The result was magical.
1t terminated in blaze OF glory and
! a flood of prosperity which has never
before, since the beginning of the
world. descended upon any nation.
Prosperity universal and unheard OF
pervaded every department Of the EN-.
pire.
Agriculture, manufactures and com
merce increased in unparalleled ratio.
The landed proprietors were in at.
fluence.
Wealth to an unheard of extent wa7
created among the farmers.
Our exports, imports and tonnage
more than doubled, and the condition
of the people was one of extraordinary
prosperity.
From 1897 to 1878 no financial en-
barrassments OF any moment were ex-
perienced, and in vain Napoleon waited
for the stoppage of England's financial
resources.
But the resumption of specie pay
ments in 1s19-the change of the finan-
cial system from legal tender paper to
metal money-was ruinous to all the
industries of England. The distress
became insufferable, and in Manches.
ter 10000 men, women and children
assembled, demanded blood or bread,
and many Of the people were killed
and many were wounded by British
troops. Cannot the reader who is IS
years old and upwards turn to Amer
lean history and recall parallel to the
above?

Sherman's plea for labor in the SEN
ate OF the United States In 1875: We

s4o,O00.oo0 in silver bullion. He esti-
mates the total production at $780,
100000, of which s4o.O0o,0oO will be
silver. Why not utilize this silver as
legal tender? admit that II 1t is made
a legal tender, equal to gold, 1t being
metal not so valuable, 1t would drive
the gold from the country, and the sill
yer alone would remain. BY limiting IL
to thousand dollars In one payment.
ninety-nine transactions out OF every
one hundred will be transacted with II.
And all business between individuals
employer, between farmers and their
merchants, and all wages, and indeed
thousands Of transactions which under
lie society broad and deep. would be
in this coin. The large transactions
between the bankers and those between
this and foreign nations would CON
tinus 10 be In gold, but the silver
would remain here as the coin OF the
people, and the laboring man as well
as the small dealer, and indeed OF all
those persons who do not deal in mil
lions at clip.
therefore, Mr.. President, look upon
this as one OF the great steps toward
resumption. It Is by utilizing the sill
yer which we produce in large amounts
In this country and making IL a legal
tender as II was heretofore. II re-
mains legal tender In France, and IL
Is there successful as the coin of the
people. 1t is also a legal tender in

and they have retained the double
standard: and from my reading I be-
lieve II Germany could go back TO the
double standard It would do II most
cheerfully. They believed that the
large amount of French coin which had
been brought there in a day would re-
main, and 80 believing they demone-
tized all the millions Of silver that had
been coined all the little principalities
and duchies of Germany for ages be-
fore and substituted gold exclusively,
recoining the French coin so az to
make 1t the coin of the empire. But
this imperial coin must go back to its
imperial home; and, as / said a while
ago, 1t has left that country in con-
dition OF paralysis and prostration. not
surpassed by its sad condition during
the Napoleonic wars. It should be re-
ceived as fundamental fact 50 as to
guide the Statesmen OF this country
that the reverse Of what suits England
always suits us. And as the exclusive
gold standard undoubtedly suits her.
the double standard suits us.-See

Once upon time there was farms
who was in great need of a thousanG
dollars. but he did not have single
dollar. A friend came forward and
said to him: Il will let you have tho
money. il you will give me your written
obligation to deliver to me thousand
bushels of either wheat or rye after
next years harvest" This proposition
was accepted. notwithstanding the fact
that wheat and rye were selling at
dollar and half bushel. The farmer
had neither grain, but he knew he
could raise both on his farm. and the
contract gave him the advantage OF
two harvests in which to raise the
necessary amount. SO the contract was
plainly written and signed. binding the
farmer to deliver 1 1000 bushels of either
grain, at his election. at the appointed
time. When the time of payment ar
rived 1t was found that the market
price of wheat had gone up to two
dollars per bushel, and the market
price of rye had gone down to one
dollar per bushel; and the farmer Of
course elected to pay his obligation in
rye. But what was his surprise to
find the man who held his obligation
insisted on having it discharged by the
delivery of a thousand bushels OF wheat
instead Of rye. and all the friends and
neighbors of the creditor arose and said
why, this man came to your rescue
when you were in trouble, and now
he wants to be paid honest, valuable
grain, and it is dishonest in you to even
want to pay in rye" But" says the
farmer, did he not agree to take either
grain at my option?" They could not
but admit this fact. but still they in
sisted that the bushel was '.dishon-
est" bushel and are still so insisting
and demanding that the farmer shall
not exercise the option given him in
his contract, and that good faith"
requires that he discharge his obliga-
ton in wheat, and the creditor and his
friends even insist that all men OF
brains will say so. The case is not yet
decided. Which party is right. this
farmer or his creditor?-x.

IN 1878 Senator John J. Ingalls, of
Kansas. made use of the following Ian
guage in the United States senate. It
should have much weight with Repub-
iican voters this year:
No people in great emergency ever
found faithful ally in gold. II is the
most cowardly and treacherous of all
metals. II makes no treaty 1t does not
break. 1t has no friend 1t does not be-
tray. Armies and navies are not main
tanned by gold. In times OF panic and
break. 1t has no friend Il does not be-
comes the agent and minister of ruin.
No nation ever fought great war By
the aid Of gold On the contrary. in
the crisis of greatest peril-it becomes
an enemy more potent than the foe
in the field; but when the battle is
Won and peace has been secured, gold
reappears and claims the fruits of the
victory. In our own civil war II is
doubtful IL the gold of New York did
not work greater injury than the pow
der and lead and iron of the rebels. 1t
was the most invincible enemy OF the
public credit. Gold paid no old soldier
or, sailor. IL refused the national obli-
CATION. II was worth most when our
fortunes were lowest. Every defeat
Gave 1t an increased value. II was an
open alliance with our enemies the
w9rld over, and all its energies were
evoked for our detruction. But. as
usual. when danger has been averted
and the victory secured. gold swaggers
70 the front and asserts the suprem-
sacy."
