One listens to this resounding potentate
as he deals forth party life and death;
gives every man his orders and tells
him his duty. Who is he? He was a
silver Republican. He is a village JUS
tice of the peace. Another voice is raised.
The cry is "Silvar Sixteen to One!
Silver Sixteen to 0ne!" and all who
deny it, or are cold to it, or prefer an
other plank, are party traitors. To
hear this doctor of Rffairs as he settles
all Democratic things between Eastport
and San Diego, Tacoma and the Florida
Keys. one would suppose him silver's
guardian spirit-the mentor of the ma
tional Democracy. Who is this youth

who has four times changed his politics,
and once his name, How long has he
flowed for silver? : Three years, last
July. Before that he was for gold, be-
fore that mugwump, before that Re-
publican. And he's only 80. Tender
years for such a turgid record! And
now he is to tell men like Morrison, and
Morgan, and Tucker, and Cockrell, their
party duty-men who were fighting the
wars of Democracy while he robbed
birds nests. And He's to scourge forth
all who do not kneel to Sixteen to One!
he whose own silver conviction can
show but three rattles on its tail. When
silver had chance, this fervid one was
for gold and voted for gold. Now that
silver's tied hand hand and foot in the
senate, he's .or silver, and would drive
every vote not radical for silver from
the party! Do you suppose that with
such sucklings in the places once filled
by Jackson and by Jefferson, a party
can succeed? And mark you! it's your
future that's at bay!
