RATIO ITS MEANING.
Hsm and Not for a Wall Street
Single Standard.

There are comparatively few people
that understand the real significance
of the insistence of Mr.. Bryan's de-
mand for the reiteration of 16 to in
the Kansas City platform, writes Ar
thur Tredway in the National Watch
man. Mr.. Bryan and all intelligent BIZ
metallists know that the whole con-
tention of the democratic party on the
money question is involved in the ratio.
Sixteen to one, correctly interpreted,
means bimetallism, and cannot by any
kind of Juggling be made to spell out
monometallism. There can be no such
thing as ratio applied to one metal, or
the gold standard-ratio has to do with
two or more things that are in them
selves unequal. Bimetallism means the
use of the two metals, silver and gold,
as money, and the ratio of 16 to means
the equalization of the value of the
silver and gold dollar by putting 16
times the weight of silver to one times
the weight of gold into the dollar to
bring the silver and gold dollars to a
parity with each other. In determin-
ing the ratio of 16 to 1, congress in
1884 found that our first congress had
overvalued silver in making the ratio
of Is to I. and therefore changed it to
16 to l, which is the ratio between the
old Hebrew silver and gold shekel. It
is our present coinage ratio, and it is
also the present ratio of the worlds
stock of the two metals. Is there any
reason for its change? The republican
party does not ask for change in the
ratio. Their platform demands mono
metallism, or, in other words, the ut

WAS NOT ASKED AGAIN.
One Occasion When the Piety Of .
Michigan Politician Was Not
Conspicuous.

NJ. E. Chittenden, the Michigan politician
who died recently, dearly loved joke. His
own initials, IN; +. {" he always insisted,
stood for Methodist Episcopal church, which
organization,s could it have secured him,
would have acquired very lively member.
"Mart," as Mr.. Chittenden was familiarly
called, relates the Chicago Chronicle, par
TALLY lost his hearing some years ago and
communication with him thereafter was one
Of the fine arts. Being the agent Of
the Standard Oil company for large terri
tory, he travelled considerably, and on a Ger.
tain occasion fell in with couple of friends
1t Hillsdale, who invited him to go with them
to dinner at the house of a resident &C..
quaintance. One of them quietly said to the
host: "Mr. Chittenden is an exceedingly
pious man and likes to have the food blessed
before partaking. You must invite him to
ask the blessing.
Accordingly, when all were seated, silence
fell upon the company, while the host turned
to Mr.. Chittenden with 'Will you ask the
blessing?"
Up went Chittenden's hand to his ear, with
his usual, quick, nervous gesture, as in a
listening attitude he responded in tone
more decided than unctuous:
"I've grown so alfred deaf lately that if
you've got anything to say to me YOU II have
to say it devilish loud"
A roar from the two friends disclosed to
Chittenden and the astonished host that
they had been the victims of practical joke.
But Chit" enjoyed it amazingly when he un-
derstood what had happened.

M'KINLEY "PROSPERITY."
That 1t II a Delusion and a Snare
In Shown by a Republic

One OF the strongest evidences of
genuine prosperity is the absence or
scarcity of those seeking employment.
This is condition that does not exist
now, republicans themselves being the
witnesses; and, therefore, Mckinley
prosperity" about which the "organs"
boast so much, is delusion and snare.
1t employment was abundant-if there
was plenty of work at good wages-if
clerks, accountants, stenographers and
copyists were in demand, says the Hi
nois State Register, there would be no
such dispatches sent out from republic
an headquarters and published in re-
publican organs as the following which
was clipped from recent number of
an evening organ of republicanism in
Springfield, ILL.,:
Everybody Wants neutrality-suspicious.

lican national committee are overwhelmed

applicants for work at headquarters. They

teeman from that state.''

NEWSPAPER CONVERTS.
Why Some Small Publishers Havs
Gone Over to the Repub-
llcan Side.

One of the ready-made editorials
just now being extensively circulated
among the rural press by the Hanna
campaign committee contains the
statement that no less than 20 news
papers in the state of Minnesota
have abandoned Mr.. Bryan" since
the beginning of this campaign and
gone over to Mckinley. The demo-
cratic national committee has been
at some pains to investigate the facts
and is able to state without reserva-
tion that this is almost wholly un-
true. AS matter of fact, not more
than two of the English papers in
Minnesota have made this change,
and in both of these cases there was
also change of ownership under
circumstances which give no political
significance to the transfer. On the
other hand, five English papers in
Minnesota have changed from Nc
Kinley to Bryan, making a net gain
for the Bryan cause of three English
papers.
It is unhappily true that some of
the foreign newspapers, most of them
of small circulation, have succumbed
to the Establishments of the Hanna
treasury. At least some of them who
were formerly in poor circumstances
have of late raised the Mckinley ban
ner and at the same time shown signs
of unwonted prosperity.
It is well enough to confess that
into this field the democratic nation
al committee is not able to follow Mr..
Hanna, not having at command the
purses of the trusts, railroad pools
and other benefciaries of special priv
ilege as Mr.. Hanna undoubtedly has.

PRESENCE OF MIND.
4 Little Bit of Blum That Failed to
Work with a Wide Awake
Man.

If there be one thing that more than an
other admire it is the having ones wits about
one-perhaps because never had mine. To
be possessed only of pesprit d'escaliers is
simply an aggravation, writes John Paul in
Harper's Magazine.
As illustrative of ready.witted men I re-
call an incident that have often told but
never published. Let me do that now in
justice to one that is gone.
In company with the late J. R. Osgood
once of an evening dropped in at Wallack's 5
old Fourteenth Street theater. We could
get no seats, as there was standing room
only. At the end of the first act two or
chestra seats were vacant in front, and we
walked down and took them. Barely were
we seated when two gentlemanly-loo
young men came down the aisle and ad-
dressed me.
"Beg pardon, but have you checks for
thos> seats?"
wes on the point of rising, when Osgood
replied: mo. Have you?"
They hadn't. 1t was merely bit of su-
preme bluff. But how few would have had
the readiness to meet and parry it.

The Cause Of Free Silver.
A PLAIN CONFESSION.
Question Admitted by an Adj
ministration Organ.

An honest confession is not only good
for the soul, but it frequently tends to
enlighten the public on much 'beclouded
subjects. A confession of this nature
is that of the Philadelphia Ledger, a
stalwart organ of the administration
party. Speaking in a recent issue of
the national republican platform of
1883, which as read in convention by
Mckinley, chairman of the committee
on resolutions, "condemns the policy of
the democratic administration in its
efforts to demonetize, silver" the
Ledger confesses: "Now, this was
only piece of claptrap and demagog-
ism, intended to be sop for the silver
republicans of the west. The Cleveland
administration had made no effort to
demonetize silver, but it had resisted
the free coinage proposition"
This, says the Denver Post, is plain
confession of the position of that party
on the silver question in 1883. Its pro-
fessed friendship for the white metal
was then, according to the Ledger, only
a piece of claptrap and demagogism
intended to be sop to the silver repub-
licans of the west.
That the Ledger inferentially charges
Mckinley with having been humbug
and demagogue at that time is mat
ter of no consequence now, for the
same Mckinley reported platform to
the republican national convention in
1892 in which the, Cleveland admins
tration was again denounced for it's
efforts to demonetize silver. Of fcourse,
he was insincere then also, likewise a
demagogue, and the platform of 1892,

The Man and the DOLLAR.

In 1889 Lincoln said that the repub-
lean party believed in the man and the
dollar, but that in case of conflict it be-
lieved in the man before the dollar.
This is the proper relation which should
exist between the two. Man, the handi-
work of God, comes first; money, the
handiwork Of man, is of inferior i'm
portance. Man is the master, money
the servant, but upon all important
questions to-day repubh legislation
tends to make money the master and
man the servant. The maxim of Jeffer-
son, Equal rights to all and special
privileges to none" and the doctrine Of
Lincoln that this should be a govern
sment, .'of the people, by the people and
for the people, !" are being disregarded
and the instrumentalities Of govern
.msnt are being used to advance the in
terests Of those who are in q position
TO secure favors from the government.
j. Bryan. .=.s.'s .ss.5
Willmar tribune., 1900-09-19

like its predecessor of 1888, both OF
which were reported by Mckinley,
"was only piece of claptrap and
demagogism intended to be sop to
the silver republicans of the west,' as
the Ledger now explains. The repub-
lican platform of 1896 pledged the par
ty to international bimetallism. This,
too, was undoubtedly claptrap and
demagogism intended for the west
alone, for as soon as Mckinley came
into power he changed from interna-
tional bimetallism to the gold STAN
dard. According to this explanation
of his organ he was demagogue on all
of these occasions, and the silver pre-
tensions of his party as far back as
1855 were only claptrap and demagog-
ism.
To have made it's confession complete
the Ledger should have spoken with
equal frankness of this years platform
and candidates. As an uncompromis-
ing republican organ, it should at the
very least have explained their entire
honesty, though possibly in 1912 it will
tell it's readers the truth.

Mclean Superstition.

Translated from Chinese paper:
"The Mclean people are great peo-
pie. They have many schools and large
industries. Were it not for their super
stition they would be. superior to all
other foreign devils. They believe that
Mack-Kin-Lee, their president, makes
the crops grow and so regulates the
earth that it yields gold, silver and all
other metals in abundance. Some Of
the Melicans do not believe this, but
most of them do, or Mack -Kin-Lee
would not have been made president" j"
