& CANDIDATE IN 1900
Solid for Sound Money.

The next congress will be the first
In many years with a strong sound
money majority in both houses. The
house has often been controlled by
tho silver men aud senate nearly
always. In every session free coinage
proportions have passed the senate
In one shape or another. In the
present congress the silver bill took
the form of the Teller resolution, for
the payment of government obliga-
lions IN silver. That was defeated in
the house. In the previous congress
1t was the delight Of Stewart and his
fix to substitute free silver bills for
important legislation passed by the
house. That little play will have to
stop after the 4th of March next. The
senate will have sound money ma
jority of Is or more. The sound mon
sy majority in the house will be large
enough, though its size Is uncertain,
for there is no convenient means of
telling how many Of the Eastern dem
osrats will stand with the republicans
on this issue. With not the slightest
possibility Of passing any unsound
financial measures through either
house, there will probably be cessa-
ton Of silver talk and silver efforts
during the next few years. II the
eneot Of this reverse is to discourage
further activity on the part of the
silverites, 80 that the habitat silver
dollar may go the way of the whole
fat paper dollar craze, the election of
1928 will mark an epoch in history.
But there will be a positive as we'll as
negative gain from the sound
money majority. 1t will be possible
to pass currency reform law. such
as the McCleary bill, as the republi-
can party lie pledged to do. Then the
party may 90 before the people in
st. Paul Dispatch.
We have been careful reader OF
the Dispatch for the past three years
and this is the word 1t has spoken
for such reform measure" as the
4cCleary bill by name. Indeed, like
most republican papers, it ignored
the discussion OF the financial question
snsire, except by slurs andinnunendos
But we mention the matter now for
the purpose of saying that ''sound
money" rs defined by the president,
the secretary of the treasury, and by
every administration bill. of which
the McCleary bill is one, is money ls-
sued by the banks, with only the as
sets Of the banks as security for ite
redemption. 1t does not mean gold,
or any other kind of legal tender
money for the people. The contest
has been as to whether the banks,
the corporations, or the people
through their government sh all issue
the money and control its amount,
and the corporations have won the
battle. The Dispatch and all gold
standard papers, that talk glibly OF
sound money! fail to define it, but
the measure they advocate makes it
unsecured bank issues.

stripped to the waist, offering their
naked breasts to our murderous fire,
literally threw themselves on our

terrible. We had the advantage Of
our position and moved them down by
the hundreds, but they never retreated
or fell back an inch. As one man foil,
shot through the heart, another would
take his place, with grim determine
ton and unfinching devotion to duty
in every line of his face. Their gal

fell like men counting a Wholesale
massacre which would we'll have been
avoided had they only kept up their
firing without storming our trenches"
