The Hobart Confesses.

The Hobart C0nfesses.
1.-THE Hobart of New Jersey" made
a significant remark in declaring that
neither be nor Mckinley would take
an active part in the campaign.
For, said he. if Major Mckinley
should do SO, "his opponent would
probably follow in his tracks and
would no doubt delight to follow in a
cart where Major Mckinley has pre-
ceeded in palace car, contrasting
the two for the sake of argument"
The frank ADMISSION that McKin-
ley will not speak because be is afraid
of being followed by Bryan, is hardly
consistent with the previous boasts
that Mckinley wanted nothing better
than to get at his opponent and meta
phorically eat him up. Nor does Mr..
Hobarts veiw of Bryan's efsctivness
as a speaker coincide with that which
some of his party pretended TO hold.
Apparently they could not restrain
their delight whenever Bryan made a
speech, and some of them wanted to
circulate his speeches at their own
expense until they found nobody
wanted to prevent them.
Mr.. Hobart gives us the sincere
opinion of shrewd republican on
Bryan's effectiveness. He will not
make tour, nor will Mckinley, be-
cause they are afraid of being fol-
lowed. AS for the cart aud palace
Car argument, why should they be
afraid of it? The truth is they do not
want the people to know they are
palace car candidates.
They are afraid to meet Bryan before
the people and let it be seen that,
while they are standing for the pluto.
Gratis, he stands for the people. They
are afraid of his terrible sincerity, his
sympathy with the people, and his
devotion to them. And the palace
car candidates can hardly be blamed
for their timidity, especially when
one of them has the candor to con-
TESS it.-Kansas City Times.

Gems From Bryan'S Speech.
..The gold standard has compelled
tho American people to pay an ever
increasing tribute to the creditor ma
tons of the world"
whenever it is necessary for the
people as a, whole to obtain consent
from the owners of money before they
can legislate upon financial questions
We shall have passed from democracy
to plutocrocy."
'.There Is no process by which we
can be compelled to part with our gold
against our will, nor is there any pro-
cess by which silver can be forced
upon us without our con tent.
"It is folly to refuse to the people
the money which they now need for
fear that they may hereafter have
more than they need"
IA dollar which increases in pur-
chasing power is just as dishonest as
dollar which decreases in purchasing
power"
GA law which collects. from some
citizens more than their share of taxes
and collects from others less than their
share. is simply an indirect means of
transferring one mans means to
another mans pocket"
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1896-09-03

EVERY day almost brings news of
the failure of some large business
firm in the east. One of these days
those big business men will realize
that the present-gold standard" SO
much lauded to the skies by the re-
publican politicians, and which has
long ago driven millions of working
men and farmers to hand to -mou tn
existence, is NOT the finest thing in
the world. When the farmer and
laborer has no money to buy with the
small merchant has no sale for his
wares; if he has no sale, he does not
buy from the wholesaler; if the whole,
saler sells no goods he has no use for
the products Of the factory; if the
factory cannot dispose of goods, it
must close down; and when it closes
down it puts the factory hand out of
employment, and he has no money to
buy goods from the small merchant.
etc., etc, It is the inevitable result
the endless chain of depression that
touches all men of all lines of bust
ness alike. Increase the amount Of
money in circulation and you will in
crease opportunities for work, increase
wages, increase the business of the
small merchant, and 80 on UP. Con-
tinue the present system Of contrac-
ton of money circulation and you
aid the DOWNWARD crash.

FIFTY men of these United States
have in their power. by reason of the
wealth which they control, to come
together within the next twenty-four
hours and arrive at an understanding
by which every wheel of trade and
commerce may be stopped from re-
voiving, every avenue of trade block
ed and every electric key struck dumb.
These fifty men can paralize the whole
country, for they control the circula-
ton of the currency and can create a
panic whenever they will.-Chaun cey

Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1896-09-03

HERE is the way Tom Morgan, of
the Eureka Messenger, sizes it up:
'sWith free and unlimited coinage OF
both gold and silver the two metals
would be automatically equalized in
price. AS an illustra ton. suppose
that at given time gold were more
valuable than silver. Then every
man who had purchases to make or
debts to pay, would seek silver, the
cheaper metal. This increased de.
mand would raise the price and con.
stantly tend to restore the parity
The lower the price of the cheaper
metal at a given time, the stronger
would be the demand for it and the
grea ter the rise in price. When the
metals approached each other again
in value. the demand would be equal
lied and the price remain steady at,
or near the coinage ratio. 1t is this
economic law that makes bimetallism
the promoter of commerce and pros
perity."

OF the Two Evils Cheese Neither.

OF the Two Evils Cheese Neither.
If silver dollar remains at par
with gold dollar after free coinage
has been adopted, then free coinage
will do nobody-any good. for money
will be just as dear and as hard to get
at as it is now. IF the silver dollar is
not exehangeable after tree coinage
with the gold dollar, then deprecia-
ton and reputation will begin.
Which horn of this dilemma are the
free coiners going to take?-Iola Reg.
lister.
Neither, old boy Free and unlim-
tied coinage will raise the price of
silver by increasing the demand for
it, and lower the price of gold by de.
stroying its monopoly as the money
of final redemption. The ultimate
result will be to bring gold and silver
together at point between the two
extremes which they now respectively
occupy. This will give us an equal
lied dollar, neither appreciated nor
deprecated. It will afford a genuine.
ly ,und and honest standard, such as
all fair minded men desire.
