Our Congressma n
Stands True to the
Silver Cause and
Gives His Reasons.
sHArRorH AND NEwLANDs.


In the House the opposition is being
led by Shafroth, of Colorado, and
Newlands, of Nevada, both of whom
are keenly on the alert and preparing
for the fray. A day or two ago, with
more of indignation than he usually
shows in discussing public questions,
Mr.. Newlands remarked 1.-The history
of this country presents nothing more
contradictory and politically dishonest
than the treatment of the money ques-
ton by the apostles of gold. First,
silver was quietly demonetized, with
no public discussion whatever; when it
was proposed to restore it, the cry was
raised that it would flood the country
with cheap money, and the silver men
were characterized as inha tionists and
regulators {; the idea of money being
scarce was ridiculed it was declared
that there was plenty of money In the
banks, and that the quantity of money
made no difference anyway. But no
sooner did they succeed in defeating free
coinage for a time than they began to
lay plans whereby the banks could issue
more notes, and in fact the circulation
of the banks has been increased con-
siderably more than 100000, 900 during
the last two years. The bankers are
nowise averse to imitation if they can
realize the profit on the initiating. Now,
when they think free coinage is disposed
of they want to destroy five or six hun
bred million dollars in silver, aud re-
place them with bank notes issued on the
security of their general assets. Such
has been the attitude of the gold men,
and it is hard to comment upon it
fittingly without overstepping the pro-
prieties of speech"
TOOLS OF THE MoNEYED INTERESTS.
Mr.. Newlands is right about it, and
the people of Nevada should not allow
themselves to forget for moment that
what he says respecting the course of
the gold men applies even more force
fully to the Republican party, the
leaders of which have simply become
the subservient tools of the great
moneyed interests of the country. It
was hard for me to break away from the
Republican party. I chung to it long
after both of the Nevada Senators had
left it. said good bye to it only when
my Judgment was finally convinced
that the tendencies of the party were
inimical to the best interests of the
country, and particularly to those of
Nevada. have seen nothing to change
my mind since, and now feel that if
there was good reason for man to
leave the Republican party in 1892,
1894, or 1896, there is infinitely better
reason why he should not return to it
in 1902.

An Able and interest
ing Article is Receiiy-
ed From Honorable
H. F. Bartine.

In my former letter I made somegen-
eral reference to the Inconsistency of
those who broke away from the Repub-
lican party upon the silver question in
returning to that party upon the theory
that the issue is a dead one. 1t may not
be untimely for me to advert to the
matter little more specifically, for the
reporting of the Hill bill to the House,
shows that while some of our former
silver champions may be willing to
consider the question as settled, the ex-
treme gold men are not, and never will
be, until the last legal tender silver
dollar is eliminated from our monetary
system. The Hill bill provides that the
silver bullion now in the Treasury and
standard dollars already coined, so far
as they may be necessary, shall be
coined into subsidiary coins-that is to
say, into half dollars and smaller pieces,
the legal tender of which is limited to
five dollars. The bill also makes the
standard silver dollars redeemable in
gold.
TO DESTROY THE STANDARD DOLLARS.
The avowed object of the measure, as
stated by Mr.. Hill himself, is ultimately
to get entirely rid of the silver dollars
now existing, and to prevent any more
from ever being coined. The gold men
are looking anxiously forward to the
time when the flood tide of prosperity
may become an ebb tide, and the money
question again become pressing and
urgent. They know that under such
conditions the presence of 100000, 900
silver dollars in our monetary system
would naturally suggest the propriety
of coming more of them; but, if we
have no silver coinage except our small
change, they feel that the position of
the silver men would be greatly weak
ened, and that the argument could be
plausibly made that there would be no
more propriety in coming full tender
money out of silver than to make it of
some other substance.
Furthermore, as Mr.. Shafroth init
mates in his admirable report against
the bill, the fact that the silver dollars
were redeemable in gold, would itself
be used as an argument against their
retention. 1t requires no more gold to
redeem paper dollar than it does a
silver one, and the silver dollars sold
as bullion, even at q greatly reduced
price, would buy paper enough for cur
rency purposes ito last the country for
ages. But it is useless to discuss this
point. The purpose of the bill is to give
the finishing stroke to silver as money
metal, and such purpose is frankly ad-
mitted by Mr.. Hill, So it is by the
Eastern gold standard Press, the only
objection urged to it in that quarter be-
ing that the bill will not wipe out these
dollars quickly enough.

Mr.. NGWldndS on the Money! Question.
OF GRAVE IMPORT.


This is matter of grave import to
the people of Nevada. who still have
silver interests which need protection.
Even if none of the silver dollars were
actually sold as bullion (which many
of them doubtless would be- the enact
ment of the Hill bill into law would
mean that the United States would not
buy another ounce Of silver for subsi-
diary coinage during the next half CEN
fury. The market for the silver miners
product would be limited just to that
extent, and that the price of the metal
would be. depressed, even below the
present miners figures, is SO evident that
it goes without saying.
Nor need we stop here. If even one
fourth of the silver dollars should be
melted down and sold as bullion, it
would practically destroy the silver
market, for a considerable time, at
least. But leaving that contingency out
of view, there can be no question that
the example of the United States would
be contagious, leading to similar action
in other countries and the drop in sill
yer might easily be such as to close
every American silver mine, except
those in which the metal is only by
.roduct.
AN INsENSATE POLICY.
Tho do,,,1,ot;oo+;o,, - e;lxa, xryac tho
most insensate and cruel legislative act
that ever took place in the United States.
It was body blow at our national pros
perity. Every line of productive indus
try felt it, and for years we were liter
ally wallowing in the slough of despond.
That we have finally struggled out of it
and measurably adjusted ourselves to
the gold standard, is owing partly to
our vast resources, but mainly to the
great gold discoveries in South Africa,
the Klondfke, Cripple Creek, and other
places. By the providence of God we
have been partially saved from the con-
sequences of most unwise and ubiquitous
legislation, intended to limit the money
supply in the interest of the money lend
ing and fixed income classes.
+, HOW THE PARTIES STAND.
Now, a word as to how the parties
stand upon this question in its present
phase. First, it may be observed that
there have always been a few gold
men in the Democratic party, and if
this measure comes before the House, as
it probably will, some of them may vote
for it. AS to that, we do not know at
this time. But, on the other hand it is
certain that the Republicans will be
nearly, if not quite, a unit in favor of
the measure. A few of them from the
West may feel that the time is not ripe
for it yet, and oppose it through fear
of their constituencies; but, as they
edged along little at time toward
the gold standard, SO we may be sure
that they will ultimately stand with
their party in the FINAL onslaught upon
silver. In any event we know, with
absolute certainty, that this bill, if
brought to vote, will receive very
nearly unanimous Republican sup
port, and that the Democrats will stand
in almost solid mass against it. This is
clearly foreshadowed by the vote in
committee, every Republican support
ing the measure and every Democrat
opposing it.
