THE FREEDOM OF TRUTH

and Best Elements of

Ignorance is always prejudice or super
sutton. 1t Is accompanied by fear and
doubt and hestancy. And just so with the

The Democrats and Cheap Money.

1t may be regarded as settled that
the Republican national convention
Will not declare in fsyor of the free
coinage of silver. 1t may also be &C
cepted that its platform will declare
with more or less clearness in favor of
sound money, although it may speak
with some ambiguity on the subject.
A square declaration in favor of hon
est money on the accepted standard
Of the civilized world, is possible but
not certain. 1t is improbable that
any man will be nominated as the
Republican candidate for President
who would not, when elected, main
tain sound financial system, although
the platform adopted by Mckinley, of
Ohio, is not at all assuring on the
subject.
What will the Democrats do d? If
the conventions of the two great
parties Of the country were to declare
unequivocally in favor of sound money
the issue would be settled, and it
would not affect the result OF the cleo
ton, but there is less prospect to day
of the Democrats maintaining their
integrity than there was six months
ago. The apparent failure of the
sound money men at the recent pri-
maries to hold Alabama, whose con-
vention will be the first to give ex-
preston on the subject in the South,
indicates tidal wave for free silver
in the Democratic conventions of that
region. The Democratic national
convention will be co.hposed of o1o
delegates, and the following States are
all that can be safely counted upon
to-day to stand firmly for a sound
money platform:

The opinion of Mr.. George B.

for two things:
G) The silver craze.
(a) Jingoism.
Mr.. Roberts also points out two

Bright Signs on the Political Horizon,

The possibility that the Silyerites
might control the Chicago Conven-
tion has had one excellent result-it
has stirred up the Sound Money
Democrats to a sense of the peril
which confronts the party and the
country, and from this time forward
they will make a most determined
fight in every doubtful district for the
one cause upon the success Of which
the present standard of values
depends.
The signs of these reawakenlngs
are visible in many quarters. Senator
Brice has reconsidered his former in
tention Of spending the summer in
Europe, and will go to the Chicago
Convention; and he predicts that,
while the majority Of the delegates
may be in favor Of silver, there will
be no free coinage plank in the plat
form. Another hopeful portent re-
veals itself in Kentucky, where the
Democratic hight against the Free
Silver fantasy is being urged with
every prospect of victory and still
another promise is evident in Chicago,
where the good work recently done
by Secretary Carlisle has already
begun to tell, a committee Of one
hundred Democrats having been
formed, with ex-Mayor Hopkins at
its head, which is already actively at
work spreading the light of truth.
Similar committees should be
formed in every city and town in
which the silver craze has found
lodgment. The battle is on in earn
est. 1t must be fought out in ad-
vance of the meeting Of the National
Convention; and it will surely prove
a winning fight if it shall be fought
with the courage and persistency
which just cause ever inspires in
the breasts of determined men.

TIE RING! THE RING WHAT Is THE
RING2

When election time approaches, we
hear the ring frequently spoken of
and the way it is characterized leads
plain people to suppose that it must
be something dreadful.
Now l should like to know Just
what it is and who are in it. Almost
every candidate who solicits our suf.
frage claims to be opposed to the ring,
or that he is out to fight the ring.
After sizing them all up as best we
can, We decide which one shall receive
our vote, and the one receiving the
greatest number Of our votes is ot
course elected. And then to our
amazement we are informed that he
was the ring candidate. That he is
ringster Of the most pronounced
type, or that he is going to be too
Of the ring. That we have been CO.
operating with the ring and against
our own interest.
Now think it would be the proper
thing for some of you newspaper men,
who are wise in such matters, to tell
us beforehand who is and who is not
In the ring, SO that we can vote intel.
ligently. This information we should
have before election, if it is to serve
any useful purpose.
l have sometimes been led to sup
pose that it cannot be told until after
the vote is counted, and then the sue
cessful man is known to be in the
ring If this is the case, the defeated
candidates, instead of heaping oppro-
brium upon their successful rival.
should rather congratulate themselves
on their escape from getting in the
hated ring. This leads to another
thought. There is one or more of
our candidates who has gained con-
siderable notoriety whether enviable
or not depends on who you are talk
ing to- as an exposer of the rascalities
of the ring. The question arises, if
such one should be elected. will it
place him in the ring, and will that
destroy or abridge his usefulness in
exposing the corruption of ringsters7
These are questions that it seems
to me voters would do we'll to con-
slider. We frequently hear it remarked
that 1t is a great pity to spoil a good
farmer or good mechanic to make
poor preacher or poor lawyer. 1t
seems to me equally impolitic to sac
rlhce valiant exponent of the rascal
tiles of ringdom, to secure-well say
an ordinarily good official, who must
OF necessity, or at least may become a
ringster. 1t requires a very strong
man to entirely overcome the influence
of his environment.
My own opinion is, that the ring
business is being rather overdone.
That the so called ring is mythical
monster, a creature ofthe imagination
OF some sorehead who failed to get
there. Mind, l give it only as my
opinion; but do not urge or advise
anyone to accept it as either law or
Gospel. If I am in error, am ready
and willing to be convinced of the
same. Please give us light on this
subject, and very much oblige.
