Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1897-01-09
Monday, january 18th. 1897.


Previous to the late Presidential
election the gold standard papers,
and especially the Chicago Tribune,
made great efforts to convince the
voters that the free coinage of silver
would ruin the country and put it
on par with Mexico.
This statement was a mixture of
truth and MISUNDERSTANDING the
testimony of the Tribune to be true.
The untruthful part of the state
ment was the assertion that free
coinage of silver would bring ruin
to the country adopting it, and cit.
ing Mexico, as presented by gold
standard correspondents, as an ex-
ample.
Mexico is a free silver country.
How has free silver ruined Mex
leo?
Let the Tribune testify A Mexi-
can article in it is headed: Mexico
in Prosperous Condition.
1t then goes on to say the reve-
nues are largely exceeding the ex-
penditures, and the treasury will
show large surplus at the end of
the fiscal year.
Manufacturing industries are
multiplying, and agriculture is con-
tinuing to expand"
A witness testifying against him
self is not likely to exaggerate to
his testimony, SO that it seems to be
safe to accept this statement of the
prosperous condition of Mexico as
true, though possibly the facts
might justify still brighter show
ing.
How would it affect our starving
masses to have some of that Mexi-
can free silver ruin brought across
the line into the United States?
About sixty millions of our peo-
pie would be quite willing to be
Mexicanized by having our manu-
featuring Industries multiplied" and
our agriculture profitably extended,
How will this free silver Mexican
