The Jost6r's Trick.

Peter the Great was once very neatly
caught In a trap by a Jester attached
to the court. The Jester was noted for
his oleverness In getting himself and
his friends out OF difficulties. II hap
poned one day that a cousin OF his had
incurred the cars displeasure and was
about to DO executed Tho Jester there
fore presented himself before his i'm
perlal master to beg for a reprieye. on
seeing him approach. the czar. diyin-
ing his orrand, cried: 1T il no good
TO come here; swear will not grant
what you are going to ask Immedi-
ately the Jester went down on his
knees, saying: Il beseech your Inn
perlal highness TO put that scamp
cousin OF mine TO death" The car,
thus caught In his own trap, could
only laugh and pardon the condemned
man.

because we believe that legislation
should restore to silver the value
which legislation has destroyed, and
because we know that the adoption
OF any higher ratio would necessitate
the coinage of all existing silver
coins and prOportionately lessen the
amount of silver to be added to the
currency in the future. But if the
currency demands of the United
States failed to restore silver bullion
to its coin value, the bimetallists in
Congress would accept the ratio
which the equal treatment of both
metals established. Not one bimetal-
list in five wishes a silver currency
that will not, in all ordinary trans
actions, be at par with gold; and it
is folly to fear that bimetallist Con-
gressmen will force upon the coun-
try what their own constituents do
not want.
All this, however, belongs to the
campaign two years hence, when the
future currency policy must be de-
cided. Prior to that time the amount
of silver currency cannot be in
creased. By that time the issue of
imperialism must be disposed of, for
unless Mr.. Bryan meanwhile brings
to IN end the present war against
the right of our recent allies to the
government of their choice, the cha
grin of his supporters would make
the defeat of his party inevitable.
The men who are now united against
Imperialism may as safely divide in
1902 as those who are divided upon
the currency may safely unite now.

EXPECTATIONS OF HIS
SUPPORTERS.

Today, the quantity of gold pro
Iuced Is relatively far greater than
IN 1890, and the price of silver would
be relatively higher if the currency
demand for the two metals had re-
nained the same. Today, therefore,
Fhe passage of an act for the unre-
Ftrlcted coinage of silver to be pur-
chased at a market value not exceed
rng Its coinage value would restore
The old ratio as surely as the value
ot silver bullion is governed by the
-aw Of supply and demand. A bill
Framed in this way was supported by
all the b~imetallists in the Senate in
1894, but was defeated by those who
malntained that the increase of the
currency would be an evil to both
capitalists and labOrers. Today,
when President Mckinley is boast
Png that the increase of our currency
From 81, 500, 900, 900 to So 900, 900, 900

prices, there are relatively few who

Iencv as an evil to the producing
Mr.. Bryan, therefore, might
Easily bring the conservative mem
.oer> of his party to support a meas
.0Fe which without imperiling the
continued parity of gold and silver
coin would restore silver to it's old
place in the currency.
II legislation of this sort failed to
restore silver bullion to the value it
.aeId for generations, until adverse
legislation took away the currency
|uemand for it, then the bimetallists
y Congress would change the ratio.
1ne ratio at which the free coinage
W both metals shall be resumed is

THE MCKINLEY ADMINS
TRATION'S VIEW.

-, have seen that while protected
tbo Cleveland administration as
actually as it could be under any
~ standard law, the country suf-
~ from apprehension of what
threatened. If Mr.. Bryan should
oracted now, would there, or would
49, not. be ground for apprehen-
- as TO what might follow?
The gold standard law received II
o~,nocratic votes in the House.
Pbare is greater probability that the
~ House will be Democratic than
Lat Mr., Bryan will be elected and,
\ +bo latter event occurs, it may be
T,oonted as certain that the House
In he Democratic by a much larger
|. ioritv than II. The free silver
rIorent will organize the House,
srpct the Speaker, and control legis-
stiOn.
In the Senate there are now 81
r,tes to sustain the gold standard
.r counting one in the Pennsyl-
sria vacancy. But the two Demo-
RATS who voted for it, Lindsay and
g4erv. will be replaced on March
Nh next by free silver Senators al
-asdv elected. Seven Republican
S~anators who voted for it are likely
b lose their seats at the same time,
+ the sentiment of the country is
srcb as to elect Mr.. Bryan. They
ire Baker, of Kansas; Carter, of
Montana Elkins, of West Virginia :;
Eboup. of Idaho Thurston, of Ne
braska Warren, of Wyoming and
WoIcott. of Colorado. If Mr.. Bryan
; elected, he will almost certainly
harry all of these States and if he
tarries them, it is to be expected that
tbev will elect free silver Senators.
Nine votes deducted from the sound
money strength leaves the Senate a
he. with a free silver Vice President
In the chair.
It is apparent, from the foregoing,
that if Mr.. Bryan is elected there
yviI be no safe and reliable majority
AGAINST him in either branch of Con
gress. 1t is impossible for any man
to give his influence to the election
Of Mr.. Bryan without aiding him to
control in Congress. A few sound
Democrats in either body will
not suffice to relieve the country
from anxiety. Against them will be
their party's platform, the tremen-
d0uS weight of party pressure, the
organization in both houses, and
finally the influence and disciplinary
powers of the President. A signal
example Of what the latter can &C
was given when the pur-
clause of the Sherman Act
was repealed, and a striking demon
Of how Mr.. Bryan would
use those powers was afforded by his
toward the Kansas City Con
Tention.-From "Bryan's Financial
A Republican View" by the
