Through 1t more than any other party the
moral sentiment of the American people

tlemen. then God save us. Where will
that moral expression be found? If we go
back to the ancient history of the party

CONDEMNS REPUBLICAN
STAND ON MONEY QUESTION.

"My friends. there follows a statement
of the former Secretary of War which
will perhaps be taken seriously. They
boast that under the Republican admins
tration, the insinuation being that 1t is
due to a Republican administration, the
per capita of circulation of money in the
United States has gone up from 81 plus
in March. 1897, to Il plus in May last.
Now, isn't this u curious thing. coming
from n party which was but yesterday
busy denying that there was any such
thing az quantitative theory of money?
Busy! Occupied day and night denying
that the volume of money had anything
to do with the value of money: denying
that the value of money had anything to
do with an ascending scale Of prices; de-
nying that an ascending scales of prices
had anything to do with national prosper
ity. And now. these same gentlemen in
the Republican platform. well as in
this speech. tell us that the Republican
party has brought about this great in
crease in the volume of the metallic
money of the country, and that that in
crease has brought ascending scale of
prices, and that that ascending scale of
prices has brought prosperity. My friends.

SAYS REPUBLICANS CLAIM
BENEFIT FOR EVERYTHING.

'"The temporary chairman's speech, the
platform, are both full of this old Re
publican scheme of claiming the benefit
of everything that ever happened. But
here are men insinuating an argument
in contradiction TO which they won q
great election not long ago.
Now. in the line of his hoastinS. the
next step taken by the Secretary is this Z:
He boasts that the Secretary of the
Treasury does and can contract and ex-
