The Junior senator from Colorado re-
ferred to the sale OF slxty-two and n
half millions OF bonds OF the United
States by a Democratic President, which
was sustained by the Democratic party.
His remark furnishes an example OF the
management OF our finances under a
Democratic President and a Democratic
Congress. The facts are familiar 10 all.
The Democratic party came into full
control OF the government In all OF Its
branches In 1898, and In the following
May, owing TO threatened legislation
abou, the tariff and against protection.
which was carried out, 4 panic seized
the country and continued with una
bated fury until the Democratic party
was driven from power: and from the
effects OF this panic We are Just recov-
erlag. BY reason OF the bill passed By
n Democratic Congress TO destroy pro-
lection. the revenue became insufficient
to pay the expenses OF the government.
The Democratic party at once resorted
to the sale OF bonds to meet expenses,
and increased during their four years OF
power the Understanding debt OF the
government s262, 900. 900. This was done
In the face OF the fact that the Repub-
l!can party had for 4 quarter OF 4 CEN
fury constantly reduced the public debt.
The first bonds sold by the Democrat
ic President amounted to s62, 500, 900.
They were sold under a p, 'vate contract
without notice and without asking bids,
at l0i1L!:, when the Same bonds were SELL
ing every dag In the market from lis
to ll6. Banks all over the country
wanted the bonds at LA and lis. yet the
President OF the United States made this
private contract by which the people
OF the United States lost forever six or
seven million dollars. which went into
the pockets OF a syndicate of bankers.
Not q Democratic senator, or q mem
Der OF Congress, rose In his place to pro-
test against this remarkable transac-
tton. Not even the senator from Ne
braska tMr. Allen). was heard from,nor
the senator from South Carolina, (Mr.
Tilltnaa). Each looked on with COM
placert indifference and the senator
from Delaware (Mr. Gray, with POSI-
tive appreciation. How does this
transaction compare with the manage
ment OF our. loans by the Republican
party. During and following the var
the Republican party sold s., 500. 900, 900
OF bonds at an expense OF about five
millions OF dollars. 1t cost the people,
however, under Democratic rule, more
than six millions OF dollars to sell only
Sc, 0c0, 900 tonGs In a time OF peace and
thirty vears after war. This sort OF
management OF the finances by the
Democratic party should forever. for
felt all its claims TO the confidence of
the people.
