To say that the silver question ls
waning is to say that the intelli
gence of American people is on the
wane. 1t is pure ignorance that
makes a man a goldbug unless he
is a money-lender without property.
If he is a money-lender, bis inter
est will purchase more under the
present condition of things, than it
would If the money circulation was
increased by the opening of the
mints to the free coinage of silver
If he is a money-lender and also
has property the value OF his prop
erty will fall in proportion TO the
rise in the value Of his per cont
making abopt a stand off All the
balance of mankind are losers by
the decentralization Of silver of one
half the money metal. Pat few
cents into standard works on the
money question and study it, then
you will no longer vote to cut your
own throat and talk like a fool.
