The enterprise. [volume] (Wellington, Ohio) 188?-1899, 1897-03-24

In his speech at New York on Febru-
airy 26 Mr.. Bryan said: IF any person
believes government should single
cut few people and give them advan-
tages over others, he does not under
stand equality under the law"
This is very true. But, in demanding
that silver mine owners be permitted to
take 80 cents worth of bullion to the
treasury and have it stamped as one dol
lar is not Mr.. Bryan advocating the
very inequality under the law which he
rebukes? Would not free coinage Of
silver at fictitious ratio be to single
out o few people and give them adj
vantages over others?" The owners Of
silver bullion in this country are very
few indeed.
Again Mr.. Bryan says: mo just gov
ernment ought to enable or permit one
citizen to injure another citizen"
True. But would not the govern
ment do this if it enabled one class Of
citizens. the debtors, to discharge their
obligations to another class, the cred
itors. in dollars worth only half as
much as were the dollars loaned? II
the government were to make wampum
or conch shells legal tender for the pay
ment Of debt, would It not enable one
class OF citizens to injure another class
And would it not do the same in depre.
ciating the currency Of the country to
n 50-cent basis?
