The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1899-11-03

The silver party managers in various
parts of the county and state have already
begun the organization of clubs for the pur-
pose of discussing the free coinage of silver,
anti-expansiOn, and other forlorn issues
which so for seem to be the OILY ones which
the party can trump up for next years
campaign. 1t will take good many such
clubs however to make over the silver argu.
ments OF last campaign into plausible ones
for the next in the face of the steady and
continuous advance in prices along con.
stantly increasing number of lines. The
members of the clubs, and others, should
remember that this increase in prices is Just
what the Bryanites were clamoring for in
the last campaign and was their sole excuse
then for the advocacy of the free coinage of
silver which they claimed was the only
means by which prices could be advanced,
Ii they were sincere in their statement of
their object, namely the raising of prices,
they must EOw admit that they not only
have seen 1t attained but that too, in a eur
rency whose value is unquestioned the world
over. They should be doubly thankful, for
now there cannot be the dispute as to
whether prices have actually risen or not,
which would have been inevitable even If
prices had doubled under cheaper standard
which has only fluctuating market value
in the marts of the world 1t will take
much study on the part of these so. called
clubs to explain away these facts and make
any advocacy of the free coinage of silver
consistent with even their position of three
years ago, to say nothing of making it con.
sistent with good sense.
