Can We Let the Currency Alone ?

Mn. EDITOR In answer TO your re-
Div 10 my article headed rs above,
ask YOU 10 print only few sentences.
There is one thing You say that we
fully agree in, and that is, There will
bc no panic as long rs the prospect is
that the present monetary system will
be maintained" But what is the pres
ent monetary system Is ii the .sin-
ole gold standard" or is it the "doublc
standard" or is il neitherp And how
long can it be maintained?
Your own complaint that the gold
Democrats and some Of the Republic
cans were embarrassing the Republic
can policy of letting the currency
alone" was what originated my first ar
ticlc.
Why were they urging the retire
ment of this paper money fthe curren-
cy was SAFE
When ii becomes evident that bust
ness men get where their liabilities are
greater than their assets their creditors
begin to "embarrass their policy Of
letting the currency alone
This government is now in that very
condition, and no amount of editorial
comment or political argument can dis
prove il.
The Republican party must either
come squarely out and work with the
gold Democrats, withdraw this cred
il money. contract the currency and
get squarely onto the single gold stan
dard or advocate and urge "bimetal-
lism" either by international agree
ment" or independent action" and de-
eide which way they will take very

Ii is very gratifying. not only to
those who come into personal contact
with the president, but to all who
keep in touch with national affairs, to
see that the barriers that Cleveland

intrigue to get word with Cleveland

Mckinley seems to be pleasing both
the politicians and the people, which
requires no mean ability, as many cx-
ecutives can testify. Nor is ii appar-
cnt that he is so anxious to please As to
be destitute of mind of his own. He
