Mr. Hobart wants oil our dollars to
be as good as gold and plenty of them.
That Is the Republican definition of
round money, and It can't be beaten.
The Democracy and Silver.
We do not share the opinion of those
who regret that the Democratic conven
tion has decided to declare outspokenly
for the free, unlimited and Independent
coinage of silver. To our mind this
decision Is to be commended for Its
frankneps and courage. It represents
the belief of a manifestly large ma
jority of the Democratic party, as de
clared through party primaries and
eonventlona, and It promlres to bring to
a decisive settlement In one national
campaign an Issue which might other
wise have stood for years aa a menace
to business confidence and stability.
Although friendly to bimetallism and
confident of Its ultimate triumph
among the principal nations. The Tri
bune nevertheless believes that the
Democratic party, true to Its history, Is
again commiting a great mistake. It
It once more attempting the Impossible,
and that not In a spirit of soberness
befitting so serious u matter, but In a
mere mood of passion, petulance and
pique. It is angered at its president;
it Is incensed at the dire effects of its
free trade experiment; and It is taking
the unmanly method of exhibiting Its
feelings by a rash attempt to smash
the existing order of things. Such pro
cedure as Is now on vie,- at Chicago is
not statesmanship; !t Is not wise and
Intelligent deliberation to a definite and
clearly defined end; It Is simply mid
summer madness, unballasted by
rhyme or reason. Statesmanship Is
cool, rational, constructive. Statesman
ship weighs facts and gauges condi
tions. Statesmanship does not brush
aside with contemptuous impatience the
cumulous warnings of conservative
business men and rush like a cyclone
to a career of destructlveness and
chaos. Such precipitancy Is not states
manship but sheer, wild folly. It Is
Insanity which our Democratic friends
have mistaken for inspiration.
But, while mistaken. Democracy is
brave, and for that if for no other qual
ity It la deserving of commendation. In
giving- definite and defiant voice to the
. communistic discontent of the day, It
has afforded to thoughtful citizenship
an unusual opportunity and Incentive
to sink minor differences and get to
gether. Jt has broken the pillars be
neath American socialism, and social
Ism a a 'dangerous political growth
will perish iwlth it In the ruins. If un
restricted silver coinage were possible
and desirable by this country alone, the
Democratic party la showing by Its
present methods that It would not be a
safe party to entrust with the -task of
putting free coinage Into effect" But
the fact la clear that unrestricted inde
pendent coinage Is not possible without
consequences disastrous beyond calcu
LABEL
lation; and this will amply suffice to
bring the Issue to a prudent solution.
According to Mulhall, the United
States Is 40 per cent, wealthier than the
wealthiest remaining country on earth.
That fact certainly speaks well for Pro
tection and the gold standard.
"The money of the United Slates,
and every kind or form of it, whether
of paper, silver or gold, must be as
good as the best in the world. It must
not ouly be current at its full face
value at home, but it must be counted
at par in any and every coniuicrcial
ccutcr of the globe. The dollar paid
to the farmer, the wugc-enrner and
the pensioner must continue forever
equal in purchasing and debt-paying
power to the dollar paid to any gov
eminent credit or."-. Melt iuley in His
Speech of Acceptance.
Mr. Harrlty, according to all reports,
will have to become reconciled to a
bifurcated delegation.
The Case of St. John.
The recent action of the directors of
the Mercantile bank of New York city In
requesting the resignation of President
William P. St. John because of his
championship of the free coinage of
silver was a strategic blunder which
hinders rather than helps the cause of
sound money. It Is admitted In busi
ness circles that Mr. St. John Is a cap
able banker. It Is also admitted that
his position on the financial issue was
the result of honest study and a clear
conscience. He exercised his undoubted
right to speak and act according to his
convictions, and the public will not
think any the less of him for It.
On the other hand, the action of the
directors of the Mercantile bank was
conspicuously arbitrary and unfair. It
smacks unnecessarily of persecution.
Though It may haje been literally true
that Mr. St. John's attitude In relation
to the currency question proved a source
of embarrassment to the bank, it was
not the wise thing to select the week
preceding a national convention for the
date of advertising to the country that
disagreement of political opinion would
be punished by the financial Interests of
New York city by forfeiture of em
ployment and commercial ostracism .
We cite the case of St. John and make
these few remarks because there Is a
good deal of this sort of narrowness In
both camps just now. Altogether too
many persons In these United States
seem to believe that when some one dif
fers from them In political belief It Is
prudent and right to Institute at once
a vigorous campaign of personal retalia
tion. The spirit that led the people
to burn witches in Salem days Is far too
ripe In 1S96. It Is a contemptible spirit
that dishonors those who harbor It and
simply causes trouble without doing
good to those who don't. Able and
honest men are to be found on either
side of the money Issue as that Issue
now stands In contemporary politics,
and it ought to be possible In this day of
civilization to make arguments and con
duct an economic discussion without
employing epithets, scurrility or perse
cution for opinion's sake.
The audience at the Volunteers' tent
meeting on Tuesday evening, was
treated to a somewhat remarkable dis
play of the mountebank tactics which
were so Justly criticized in the old Sal
vation Army. The movement In this
city has hitherto elicited expressions of
general favor; the services having been
characterized to a marked degree by
manifest devotion and true religious
spirit. The officers In charge, Captain
Masland and Lieutenant Green, com
mand the respect of the community, but
we would suggest to those In authority
over them that such outside assistance
as was In evidence on Tuesday evening
be sent home and kept there. En
thusiasm li one thing and unmeaning
antics are another. Interest In the wel
fare of the movement causes us to speak
as we do.
The Legal Profession.
That Is a severe arraignment of the
legal profession which Colonel McClure
makes In the Philadelphia Times' edi
torial upon this week's meeting of the
Pennsylvania Bar association at Bed
ford Springs. But If It be unfair. Its
author, himself a lawyer, must be held
to account We reproduce It here only
because It nerves us as a convenient
text:
"In the chief centers of population In
Pennsylvania," Col. McClure observes,
"the successful lawyer, measured
by the amount of compensation com
manded for his efforts. Is no longer a
member of the profession to whom the
public, the profession or the courts turn
for elucidation of the law. On the con
trary, the men who command the larg
est incomes from the practice of law in
most oi the cities of the state are the
men who violate every principle of legal
ethics, and whose daily lives are a con
stant degradation of every attribute of
dignity and decency of the profession.
They do not need to be learned In the
law, but they must be learned In the
art of Intimidating and perverting evl
dence, In procuring testimony by meth'
cds which dishonor the courts, and in
controlling jurors by systematized ef
forts, which should of ten land both coun
sel and jury In prison cells. It Is this
class of the legal profession that Is today
commanding the largest fees received
In Pennsylvania by the deliberate, per
sistent and lawless prostitution of all
the safeguards which are presumed to
surround the temple of justice."
The same statements may with equal
pertinency be applied to medicine, the
pulpit and the press. The quack doctor,
the mountebank preacher and the bus
tard Journalist each win the b!g money
prizes In their special fields of com
petitive endeavor. But that does not
say that the fakers are the most re
Bpected men In the community. On the
contrary. It may be well doubted If 'he
extra money which they gain by dls
honorable methods Is anywhere near an
adequate compensation for the losses
which they sustain In character and
reputation among thoughtful men.
Nevertheless, the statements of Col
onel McClure. if true, call for earnest
consideration. The public Itself Is
fully capable of deciding as to their
accuracy.
A good antidote for the Democratic
tinge of the week's news will be af
forded locally by Tuesday evening's
big Republican ratification parade.
Don't miss it.
State Supervision of Mining.
The Philadelphia Inquirer has appar
ently ceased to pretend to be an honest
paper In Its treatment of subjects per
taining to Lackawanna county. It sys
tematically and as we believe wilfully
distorts them, perhaps for personal
reasons that need not now be recited.
This does not hurt anybody save the
Inquirer Itself, but sometimes It Is mo
mentarily annoying.
A recent Instance in point Is Its reply
to The Tribune's comment upon the
Lplttston mine accident. Instead of re
producing the argument we offered
against the proposed establishment of
a state department of mining, with its
costly addition of superfluous parts to
the present mechanism of mine Inspec
tion, It printed Instead a letter from
Senator Coyle expressing gratiHcatlon
at the Inquirer's editorial Indorsement
of his hobby, as if the gentleman from
the Thirtieth would ever object to
newspaper taffy! And thus, having
turned the subject, It proceeded to wax
Irrelevantly eloquent.
For the Inquirer's benefit we will say
that the mine-owners of Northeastern
Pennsylvania are as cordially In fav
or of competent and searching mine In
spection as any other class of men In
the commonwealth. It saves them both
time and money and offers a good
chance to transfer responsibility In case
of accidents. No reputable mine-owner
wants to take risks that put In Jeopardy
the -Uvea-of his employes, because,
wholly apart from moral considera
tion!?, the same conditions which Jeap-
ord life simultaneously Jeapord prop
erty. The best-paying mine, other
things being equal, is the mine In which
human labor is well protected
against casuallty and consequently
free to work without Interruption. The
only objection raised by mine-owners
to a state department of mining is that
It would multiply offloea and increase
taxation without corresponding return
in bettered public service. In making
that objection they speak less as mine-
owners than as citizens and tax-payers.
The duty of the state is to govern
without needless offices and needless
costs. The state cannot hope to su
pervise every kind of business activ
ity within Its borders. It must leave
something to the judgment and com
mon sense of Its Individual citizens.
The Are losses for the month of June
were smaller than for any other month
in the past three years. It Is possible
that increasing premiums are teaching
the American people to be careful?
The slightly irreverent Chlmmle Fad
den would probably summarize the Chi
cago platform In two words: "Wot
fell!"
David B. Hill is doubtless reaching a
realization of the fact that the path
way of the fiopper In polities Is full of
silver.
The religion of Mr. Bland's wife la not
the Issue. It is the pernicious politics
of Mrs. Bland's husband.
The defeat of Yale at brawn stilt
leaves the field open to a turning of the
tables In the matter of brains.
It looks as If Horace Boles would have
excellent grounds for a breach-of-prom-Ise
suit.
HOBART ON SOUND HONEY.
From His Speech of Acceptance.
Uncertainty or instability as to the
money question Involves most serious con
sequences to every Interest and to every
citizen of the country. The gravity of this
question cannot be overestimated. There
can bo no financial prosperity where the
policy of the government as to that ques
tion is at all a matter of doubt. Gold Is
the one standard of value among all en
lightened commercial nations. All finan
cial transactions of whatever character,
all business enterprises, all Individual or
corporate investments are adjusted to it.
An honest dollar, worth 100 cents every
where, cannot be coined out of C3 cents
worth of sliver, plus a legislative flat.
Such a debasement of our currency
would Inevitably produce incalculable loss,
appalling disaster and national dishonor.
It is a fundamental principle In coinage
recognized and followed by all the states
men of America in the past and never yet
safely departed from, that there can be
only one basis upon which gold and silver
may be concurrently coined as money,
and that basis Is equality, not In weight
but In the commercial value of tne metal
contained In the respective coins. This
commercial value Is fixed by the markets
of the world, with which the great Inter
ests of our country are necessarily con
nected by Innumerable business ties,
which cannot be severed or Ignored.
Great and self-reliant as our country Is,
it Is great not alone within its own bor
ders and upon Its own resources, but be
cause It also reaches out to the ends of
the earth in all the manifold departments
of business, exchange and commerce, end
mst maintain with honor Its standing
and credit among the nations of the earth.
The question admits of no compro
mise. It Is a vital principle at stake, but
It Is In no sense partisan or seotlonal. It
concerns all the people. Ours, as one of
the foremost nations, must have a mon
etary standard equal to the best. It Is of
vital consequence that this question
should bo settled now in such a way as
to restore public confidence, here and ev
erywhere, In the Integrity of our purpose.
A doubt of that Integrity among the
other great commercial countries of the
world will not only cost us millions of
money, but that which, as patriots, wa
should treasure still more highly our
Industrial and commercial supremacy.
TRIBUTE TO SCRANTON ENERGY
From the Wilkes-Barre Record.
It is a noticeable fact that the Re
publicans of Wilkes-Barre have hot man
ifested the slightest Interest in the na
tional campaign. This is In remarkable
contrast with the enthusiasm and activ
ity displayed In almost every other city
and large town In the state. In the neigh
boring city of Scranton preparations are
now under way, by the Central Republi
can club, for a great demonstration art
ratification meeting on Tuesday evening
next. Republican campaign clubs are be
ing a organized throughout Lackawanna
county and In every direction the prepa
ratory movements for a vigorous cam
paign are manifested. In Wilkes-Barre,
and, In fact, throughout Luserne county,
the utmost Indifference prevails. This is
as unuaal as It Is noticeable.
FINANCIAL DEFINITIONS.
In resionse to many Inquiries as to the
meaning of expressions commonly used In
the discussion of lsucs involved in this
campaign, the New York Press has pre
pared the following brief table of terms
and equivalents:
FREE COINAGE.
The melting and stamping into
money, without charge for the ser
vice, of all silvor bullion brought to
the mints.
SIXTEEN TO ONE.
The ratio sought to be maintained
by law, according to which sixteen
ounces of silver shall equal In value
one ounce of gold.
COMMERCIAL RATIO.
The ratio of actual value, the rate
at which gold and silver can be ex
changed. It Is now thirty-one
ounces of silver to ono of gold.
SOUND MONEY.
A currency of which every dollar
Is exchangeable at par with the
standard dollar of the country in
tills country a gold dollar.
THE GOLD STANDARD.
The measure of value adopted by
the leading nations of the world
as a basis for their currency the
coin (gold.) in which all obligations
are finally redeemable.
A FIFTY-CENT DOLLAR.
One which, owing to the deprecia
tion of silver. Is Intrinsically worth
only this amount, and maintains Its
i face value only by reason of the
government's pledge to keep it at
parity with gold.
