President McKinley's frequdnt use OF
the pardoning power in behalf of viola
tors of the banking laws has been
much discussed. The cry is going up,
especially from communities that have

bank wreckers, that the effect of this
leniency is beginning to be apparent.
In the first nine months of President
Cleveland's second administration he
pardoned three violators of the bank.

Let me put 1t another way, for 1t is one

Chairman of the National Committee
of the Silver Republican Party"

Which suggests what was predicted
in these columns when the Dingley
bill was in process of formation-that
protective" tariff, framed for the
prohibition of imports in the interest
of the home manufacturer, defeats by
that very fact the possibility Of in
creased revenues This is not mat
ter of politice; it is a simple example
in arithmetic, and should be clear to
anyone who knows that two and two
make four. The deficit for November
is very near the 100000 mark, and
during the four months of the opera
ton Of the Dingley bill toots up the
tremendous sum of s34, 1913 an
average of something more than So, $780,
900 month, or at the rate of S1Os, 0O0,-
900 year The magnitude and i'm
portance of this condition of affairs
may be understood when is recalled
the fact that President Mckinley in his
inaugural address declared that one of
the potent causes of hard times was
the governmental deficit, when at the
time of his Inauguration the years de-
felt under the Wilson bill was but Sls,-
100000, The fact that importers rush

his message, President Mckinley
says:
The law which requires the govern
ment, after having redeemed its Unit
Hutchinson gazette. [volume] (Hutchinson, Kan.) 1895-1902, 1898-01-06

ed States notes, to pay them out again
as current funds, demands constant
replenishment of the gold reserve.
1t was claimed by the gold contrac-
tiontsts in 1878 that the law required
redemption Of United States notes in
gold, whereupon congress passed
resolution, known as the Matthews
resolution, by an overwhelming ma
jority, declaring that United States
notes and all other obligations Of the
United States were payable in silver as
we'll as gold, and that they were not
gold obligations. Mr.. Mckinley voted
for this law and no lawyer of repute
has questioned the correctness of his
vote. Is his memory bad, or his mess
age the work of another?
Secretary Carlisle did not pretend
that the law required the redemption
of greenbaclSs in gold On the con-
trary, he informed the public in Treas
ury Circular No. 1913 that "Unted
States notes are redeemable in coin, I"
but said that "coin obligations of the
government are redeemed in gold coin
when gold is demanded, and in silver
when silver is demanded" thereby
frankly admitting that the option
which belonged to the government was
surrendered by the Treasury Depart
ment to dealers in gold without consid-
alton. This generosity to gold gamb-
lers and contthp for the rights of the
people was Characteristic of Mr. Car
Isle, but he never shielded himself
from the responsibility as the Presi-
dent attempts to do by declaring that
the law required it.
Mr.. Cleveland himself lacked the eff
frontery to claim that United States
bonds are payable in gold. AS proof OF
this he had inserted in the Pierpont
Morgan agreement, whereby he sold
little over sixty-two millions of four
per cent bonds for four and one-hali
per cent premium, a provision that
three per cent gold bonds might be
substituted in lieu thereof, and ask
congress to authorize the issuance OF
the gald bonds. He said:
In the agreement just concluded, the
annual saving in interest to the gov
eminent, if three per cent gold bonds
should be substituted for four per cent
coin bonds under the privilege reserve,
would be $3.50, 159, amounting in thirty
years. or at the maturity of the coin
bonds, to SIG, ia, no.
The provision in Mr.. Cleveland's con.
tract to save sixteen millions if con.
gres would authorize the issuance OF
gold bonds instead of coin bonds,
shows that Mr.. Cleyeland was selling
''coin" bonds and not ''gold" bonds,
and that he could get sixteen millions
more for sixty-two millions of gold
bonds than he could for that amount
of coin bonds or silver bonds. If tue
parties to that contract had taken the
same view of the question that the
President does in his message, namely,
chat our obligations are gold oblIga
tions, the provision providing for saw
ing sixteen millions by issuing golt
bonds would never have been inserted
We think we may safely state that Mr.
Mckinley is the first high official wht
has announced that the law requires
payment of coin obligations in gold

10 and consecrated efforts. In the
glorious campaign of 1896 and again in
the recent elections, you nobly proved
your patriotism and indicated your
title to the grateful remembrance of
succeeding generations In this SUI
preme juncture your duties are heavier
and your opportunities greater than
those Of any other citizen of the re-
public. 1t is yours to hold together in
common fidelity the cooperating ele-
ments Of reform. 1t is yours especially
to persuade deceived and betrayed re-
publicans that to vote against their
betrayers is their highest duty. If the
degeneration of country and enslave-
ment of its producers are to be avert
ed; If to ourselves and posterity the
blessings of liberty are to be preserved;
if the final industrial and material re-
generation of the race is to remain a
serene and reasonable hope, there must
come enlightenment and enfranchise-
ment tohundreds of thousands of those
yet blinded by partisan prejudice and
in the bondage of partisan custom.
You, more readily than the members
of the other great allied forces, may
open their eyes to the truth and arouse
their patriotism to action. Let us be
thankful that at length the battle is
to be fought in the open, that one af-
ter another ali subterfuges have fall
en-, that at last we shall be able to
challenge the gold standard and its as
ISOLATED wrongs and abuses to meet us
in the open forum of the common sense,
the justice and the patriotism of the
American people. They cannot remain
blind to the clear and now confessed
designs of those who hsve trafficked in
their confidence. They cannot con-
tinue deaf to the language of reason
and the appeals of humanity. Citizen
ship will not rise above partisanship.
The rule of the people will come again;
the people upon whom our institutions
rest, for whom they were created and
by whom they shall be preserved; the
people In this broad and only true
sense; the people believed in, loved
and trusted by Jefferson, by Lincoln,
by Bryan and by all the great souls
that have come to rest the hearts of
men and therefore live in harmony
with the infinite purpose of God.
