No! Not Now.

The New York Sun in an editorial
under the foregoing headline, on the
9th of April. 1898, fred a broadside
against any objection whatever being
made to Dingley's goldite plan to more
thoroughly commit the United States
to the single gold standard. After hav-
| ing contended that the English gold
standard is the sine quG non of Ameri-
can patriotism, it says:
Let it be understood in advance that
any attempt in any quarter to embar-
rass the administration and imperil
the nations cause for the sake of This
or that financial theory is a crime
against patriotism sure to be visited
heavily with public indignation. The
only issue now is with Spain.
If the only issue is with Spain, why
does the San and every other employe
and servant of gold monopoly contend
that the people must be robbed for the
benefit of gold monopoly before and
during the time they fight Spain?
There is no fear of Spain. All the
powers of Europe combined could not
infiict upon the United States one-tenth
part of the injury that has been in
fiicted upon this country by gold-stand-
ard contraction, falling prices, and
staguation in business. No one op-
poses furnishing the government all
the money necessary to fight Spain.
All the people ask is that Spain shall
be fought by our army and navy, and
that the Cuban patriots shall have the
privilege of continuing their warfare
against Spain. The cry of ''stop thief
to cover up the nefarious schemes of
the Tory goldites has become too trans
parent to deceive the public. There
are two hundred million dollars sur
plus in the treasury. The taxation
proposed will bring in another hun
dred millions. The temporary issue
of treasury notes for one hundred mil
lion dollars would furnish more money
than could possibly be spent before the
next session of Congress. There is no
necessity for haste. There is a neces-
sity however, to watch the nefarious
schemes proposed by Wall and Lom-
bard streets to utilize the war with
Spain 10 enslave the American people.

JEFFERSON CITY, May 9th, 1898.
Editor Iron County RegiSter-Your
editorial in your paper of the 9TH inst.

assume that you do not desire to DO me
an undeserved injury, and therefore l
accept your invitation and hereby state
as emphatically as the English Ian
guage can express it, that l accepted,
stood~up and voted for every plank of
the Chicago platform of 1896, and in
the State Convention, the St. Louis
Court of Appeals convention (of which
| was temporary chairman) and the
City Convention, | made speeches,
nominating Judge Brace, for Supreme
Judge, Judge Bland for Judge of the
st. Louis Court of Appeals, and Judge
Harvey for Circuit Judge, Chas. j..
Fox for Asst. Circuit Attorney and
Vale Rayburn for Public administra-
tor, (all of whom were nominated) and
in all of them 1 advocated and endorsed
in most emphatic terms the eCh0Ie Chi
cago platform. ] voted for w. j. Bry-
an, as | have always voted for the
Democratic ticket. / never voted any
thing but the Democratic ticket in my
life, and for over % years have been
active IN supporting the Democratic
tickets in St. Louis, and can honestly
say l have made as many democratic
speeches in St. Louis as any man in the
City. The enclosed circular will
show you how | have fought the cases
involving Government by injunction,
and won them. My Democracy ought
not to be questioned. Ever since
went into the Confederate army at the
age of 16 years l have been a Demo-
crat. l have the enthusiastic support
of every faction of the Regular Demo-
cratic organization in st. Louis, and
the only element of strength against
me is Lee Meriwether, and he is op-
posed to me because beat him in his
Maudamus case before the Court of
Appeals, when he tried to have his
name put on the ticket as the Regular
Democratic nominee for Mayor after
he had bolted from the Convention,
and eoould not haze the nomination. II

NUMBER 46.

We can escape it. Instead of issuing
more bonds to add to the plutocratic
hoard by the cumulative power of in
terest to be compounded by reinvest-
ment, we have only to issue. and to
continue Issuing, non-interest bearing
currency from the mints and the treas
ury as the business of the country and
the necessities of our national life, in
war or peace, demand it.
Every million of new bonds put into
the vaults of the plutocracy helps to
enslave hundred thousand men, who
are not less the servants of their bond
holding masters because their product
is controlled rather than their persons,
as under the chattel system.
Every additional million of currency,
gold, silver or greenbacks, put into
circulation by the people themselves,
brings the economic power of at least
a hundred thousand men to bear against
the plutocratic system.
We want no wild imitation. We want
stern justice and rigorous common
sense in using the mints and the treas
ury to break the power of plutocracy
by issuing a currency that will meet
the demands of business and free pro-
duetion from the fatal drain of COM
pound interest.
We ought to be the most prosperous
people in the world. We will be when
we learn to defend like men the rights
of American manhood. = Mississippi

Two reputable lawyers, in st. Louis

the financial plank in that platform
was "a political hereSy." I understand
he voted the Democratic ticket but did
not indorse the financial plank in the
