The Cause of Free Silver.
Recent Liquidation Creates . Tsess

An Control.

Republican fondncss for trusts man
ifests itself in the currency law which
was forced through congress by the
brute power of majority drunk with
pride. IL will create trust OF trusts
"a banking trust, to which all other
trusts must humbly bow. He who can
monopol;zc the money of a nation can
bring all other monopolists to their
knees. The republican currency law
gives control of the money of the ma
ton to well-organized body OF men
of like interests who are dominated by
the handful of great bankers in the
financial cities. These great bankers
in turn are the promoters. directors or
managers of the industrial trusts.
The connection is complete. The mo-
nopolists of money and the monopo-
lists of opportunity are one and the

the paper money to the bankers me

ITS NEW ASPECT.

pniEn.

One of the vital issues OF this cam
pairn will be the money issue. The
republican party. after shrieking for
years about the dangers OF an imag-
mary "50-cent" dollar made of silver.
has benevolently given the national
banks rag" dollar which costs moth
ing. and pays them two per cent. m
terest yearly on every dollar OF tho
hundreds of millions, that they may
lend them to the people At from SIX
TO ten per cent. interest. This Is big
thing for the banks. In order to ac-
oomplish this. as Willis J. Abbott says
in an article in the Chicago Times
Herald the republican party has ADAM
doned the time-honored principle
which has animated al administrn-
lions OF the United States-namely.
that the national debt 10 q menace to

the Mckinley administration has ar

A States Building
At Washington.

THE people Of the country at large
and the citizens OF Washington
4 particularly are just now wonder.
ing what s.hcme or ceremony viii b5
decided upon to dttugly celebrate IN,
one huuireith anniversary Of the
founding OF Washington as the nations
capital
The centennial committee Of govern
ors outlined O programme for this pur-
pose some time ago, a part Of which
was the carrying out OF Architect
Cobbs suggestion TO cut a grand
Centennial avenue through the Mall
or Central park along us northern
edge and that would leave between
Il and the first street north OF Il a
strip of land a block or 20 wide
that congress was to dedicate as
sites for future buildings for govern
ment use
Legislation appropriating a sum suGi-
silent 10 complete preliminary surveys
for this has been enacted and next ses-
sion that grand avenue may be ordered
completed.
About a year ago and In connection
with this scheme I suggested that a
great states building be- built In
this city and that a fitting ceremony TO
help celebrate the centennial would be-
the laying of It's cornerstone. or. at
least, the very active agitation Of such
a building project
The lot I have in mind for that build
ing would be- the present Central mar

Mall between the market and the pro-
posed grand ayenue-a lot Of 500 by

enue Pennsylvania avenue, Seventh
and Ninth streets, northwest
