"Bimetallism must mean one of two
things: Either it is two kinds of money
of unequal value circulating side by
side by reason of the exchange Of the
less valuable for that of greater value,
or else two kinds of money Of such in
trinsic equality of value that they will
circulate naturally side by side. We
ed States now. A firm establishment
of the gold standard with such inter-
changeability with silver as will make
it acceptable on an equality with gold
will maintain this bimetallism, the
same as it has existed for the last Is
years" Secretary Gage before house
committee on banking and currency.

REPUBLICAN, OPINION.

Ths Republicans In congress and the
departments are moving in the direc-
ton Il rigid economy in government
expenditures, and the appropriations
fec tie current fiscal year are likely to
be considerably reduced. This fact
adds to the probability that the Ding
ley law is going to prove ample in its
revenue producing capacity. Indeed.
the members of the committees which
framed 1t are unanimous in the:r
agreement with treasury officials that
1t will meet the requirements Of the
government and that no further ray
enue legislation will be necessary.

With Germany, Russia, France, ia
pan and Great Britain extending their
influence in China, the financial world
is liable to wake up some fine morning
to find that country has adopted the
gold standard. Can this be the secret
reason Of the sudden anxiety of Sena-
tor Teller on this subject? He knows
that the rejection of the silver STAN
dard by China would be an immense
loss to his constituents. the silver mine
owners of the West, from whom China
has been a heavy purchaser, and if le-
ports are true. Mr.. Teller is himself
somewhat interested in silver mines.

actually starving and requiring his

Tour years ago, the contrast between

those during the free trade period will
certainly make this Merry Christmas
and Happy New Year to him. The far
mer supplies the Lulk of that great
mass of productions which go to other
parts Of the world and bring millions
Of money into the United States. The
expectations of the country in the year
now about to end are the heaviest in
its entire history. They will reach for

his share of this prosperity.
Take the manufacturers and the mil

industries which they control or which
are tributary to them. Four years ago

Take the currency of the country, the
money in circulation as another exam
pie. Two years ago the leaders of the
Democratic party began the vigorous
agitation in favor of an unsouad sys-
tenn Of finance in the affairs Of the ma
ton. The result was Immediately felt
In q rapid reduction Of the money in
circulation. Eighteen months ago its
leaders met in Chicago and did what it
had been for some time apparent they
would do, declared for the free and un-
limited coinage of silver at ratio far
different from that which actually cx-
lists in the commercial value of silver
and gold. And during that campaign
It was insisted that only by this false
and delusive method could there be
produced q sufficient increase In the

OF the United States Of this proposed
system of finance. the currency in cir
culation is more than $500. 000. 900 in
excess of that on the day that Mr.. Bry-
an was nominated upon the free silver
platform. And this is another of the
numerous causes for congratulation to
the people of the United States on this
holiday occasion.
What is the cause of all these
changes? The cause is found simply
in the difference of policy and admin
istration between the Cleveland free
trade period and the Mckinley protec-
tive tariff period. Under the former
policy the country had reached the low
est ebb in finance and trade within the
memory Of the generation. but with the
appearance of Bryan and the free sill
yer heresy a still further stagnation
was felt until things at one time SEEM
ed to be at a standstill. But with the
election of President pledged to pro-
lection and sound money an immediate
difference is seen. Even before it was
possible to enact any legislation which
would change the operation of the gov
eminent, or even before anr change
was made in the occupancy of the
White House, the confidence restored
to the country and business in the
knowledge that proper legislation
would be enacted as soon as possible
was marked on all sides. Then came
the Inauguration of President Mckinley
and later the enactment of Repub-
lican tariff law, designed to furnish
sufficient revenue and to protect Ameri-
can industries, and the result has been
a steady growth of prosperity and an
increase of business all over the land.
Prices of farm products have risen.
wages of employees have been increased.
thousands of unemployed have been
given work, and the country is enter
ing into season of prosperity which
is great contrast to the years Of free
trade which are fresh in the memories
OF the people. GEO. WILLIAMS.

Food for Thought.

Mr.. c. H. Cramp, short time ago,
at the meeting of the board of trade
and transportation in New York city,
said: mo nation has ever been able
to maintain ship-owning by purchas-
ing it's ships from the ship-builders of
other nations" This remark offers
food for thought to members of con-
gress and to the people generally. The
American policy of protection is a
broad aand national policy and should
embrace every American industry
within its beneficent workings.

There are several reasons and it may
not be improper from this national
standpoint, where they are easily look
ca at, to enumerate some of them.
Glance over the files of your papers
OF the corresponding date four years

you have not them at hand, recall to
your recollection the circumstances of
that time. Want and suffering in ev-
cry city; hundreds of thousands Of peo-
PIE out Of employment; business sus-

to give OF their funds to keep the un-
employed of their own communities
from starvation; soup houses estab-
l1shed everywhere; idle men in search
or employment or in search of susie
nance; thousands sleeping in station
houses and public buildings in the
great cities. Everybody who recalls
the experiences of the first and second
winters which followed the election of
a free trade President and Congress
