Into Our Rivals' Hands.
A point that Is generally overlooked
,n connection with the unlimited free
coinage movement Is opportunely Bet
forth by Director Preston, of the mint.
He calls attention to the fact that un
less congress should enact some spe
cial provision preventing It, the na
tions of the world, In case a free coin
age law shall be placed on the statute
books, could ship all their bullion to
the United States for coinage. Here It
would receive the government stamp,
and would be used to buy American
goods for shipment abroad. The re
sult would be that foreigners would get
all American goods at half price, while
Americans would have to pay the full
rate for them.
This would truly be a fine situation
for the American farmer, who now fav
ors free silver because he thinks it
would give him better prices for his
grain and cotton. Instead of the high
prices the dollar wheat and the twenty-cent
cotton that are bo seductively
pictured ty Imaginative Bllvcr cam
paigner h would under this obvious
ly logical arrangement of affairs have
to dispose of his-exports at practically
the present price, whereas the only
ones who would have to pay more for
these articles than Is now being paid
for them would be the American con
sumers whose money under free coin
age would be depreciated fifty per cent.
Instead, therefore, of strengthening our
selves for Increased competition against
our gold-standard European rivals we
would, under the Ilryan plan, simply
throw ourselves Into their hands and
become, as It were, commercial prison
ers of war.
Add to this the Bryan Idea of a rev
enue tariff, with Its inestimable menace
to domestic Industry and home labor
and you have a combination of policies
about as dangerous to American pro
gress and prosperity as could well be
devised. And yet the men who advo
cate these twin measures of commercial
and financial ruin have the hardihood
to declare that they do so in the inter
est of the American producer, whose
market they would give away and
whose wages they would vitiate to .the
extent of almost one-half of its face
value. Can the producers of America
be fooled by such a transparent skin
game?
Dr. Eaton, treasurer of the Metho
dist Episcopal Missionary society,
makes the point against free silver that
It would sacrifice one-half of that so
ciety's usefulness. Last year the society
sent 624,77.W abroad. If free sliver
had prevailed In this country, half of
this sum would have had to be paid to
the banks as premium 'on the cold
drafts for the remaining half. Even In
silver standard countries drafts) from
the United Slates are not accepted! t:n
Uss drawn for gold. Is the experiment
worth the price?
The Chicago convention will be
known in history as the carnival of
eccentrics.
"The Money of tho United. States,
and every kind or form of it, whether
of paper, silver or gold, must be as
good as the best ia the world. It must
not only be current at its full face
value at home, but it must be counted
at par in any, and every commercial
center of the globe. The dollar paid
to the fanner, the wage-earner and
the pensioner must continue forever
equal in purchasing and debt-paying
power to the dollar paid to any gov.
eminent cresHtor.".YIcKiuley in His
Speech of Acceptance.
A good idea to bear In mind through
out the summer months Is that no mat
ter what happens at the polls next fall,
the government at Washington will go
right on. Let the debate be sharp and
Incisive, but let us keep our tempers
and conserve, as far as possible, our
nervous energy.
Jones, His Plans.
Chairman Jones, the successor of
Ilurrlty, thus outlines his campaign
plans: "The financial lipue will be
forced to the front all the time, and
the Republicans will be kept, as they
ore now. on the defensive. There will
be little or no talk of the tariff, excel t
to Insist that the country does not want
s return of McKlnleyUm. It has re
pudiated McKlnleylsm once, and any
body who knows the temper of the pto
rle knows that there Is no popular U
rnand for another era of tremendously
high prices, with enormous profits to
the manufacturer, In which the work
ing man did not share."
The Republican party Is entirely will
ing to remain "on the defensive." This
U not the first campaign in which tne
pc-oplu have had to look to It to de
fend them against threatening peril?
of Democratic manufacture. The Rt
publlcan party can stand on the de
fensive with as good grace and as clear
a conscience as any other party tha?
ever was formed. Its record invites
scrutiny and Its visible works court
the ptrlbtest Investigation. Mr. Jones
should not forget, though, that while
he and his socialistic following are
keeping the Republicans on the defen
sive they will also keep on the defen
sive, alongside those Republicans, many
of the ablest and most influential Dem
ocrats In the nation. The element
which has heretofore given character to
the Democracy, which has Imparted to
its chaotic principles something of the
dignity arising from reputable and dis
tinguished championship. Is already a
raying Itself also "on tho defensive,"
and among the Democrats who are lei'.
behind, under nominal allegiance to
Hryan, probably one-half are lukewarm
and Indifferent.
Rut if there is no demand for high
prices, why are the silver forces promis
ing high prices as the result if they
shall succeed at the polls? Upon what
other plea can they recommend free sil
ver to the disaffected farmers of the
West? Mr. Jones had better be care
ful or he will get his cause into trouble.
Jibes at McKlnleylsm are risky experi
ments, now that the people are fresh
from the disasters which followed Mc
Kinleyism's overthrow four years ago.
It will be remembered that It was by
the use of just such jibes that the
Democracy fooled the people Into mak
ing the incalculably costly change of
1892. , The same bunco game cannot be
successfully worked twice in succes
sion, Mr. Whitney says he will have noth
ing to do with the Democratic ticket.
He will not be lonesome.
Crops, Pr'ces and Votes.
The Salt Lake Tribune, In the rourse
of a forecast of the campaign, remarks
that: "All the present indications are
that there will be a bountiful crop
through all tho agricultural regions of
the Republic. Thut crop will be har
vested before election day, and we rather
suspect that that crop will be one of the
deciding forces of the campaign, be
cause when the crop shall be nursed
and tended and Anally harvested it will
be a plain case that it will not bring- to
those who produced it enough to give
them any reward for their toil. That,
we suspect, will control In great meas
ure the vote of the agriculturalists In
this country."
It ought to. And the following table
of prices under Republican protection
and under Democratic "tariff reform"
will help to make It clear to the har
vesters of this crop why it "will not
bring to those who produced It enough
to give them any reward for their toil."

Subtracting from the foregoing list all
articles not produced on the farm, and
averaging the decline in prices of those
which remain, we find that the free
trade experiment of 1S92 has cost the
farmers of the country a depreciation
of nearly 40 por cent, in the value of
their produce, or more than $650,000,000
for each year of Democratlt misrule.
If the farmers of the country will think
of this when they go to the polls nest
fall, It will be likely to result In the veri
fication of the Salt Lake paper's pre
diction, although not in the manner It
expects.
Every farmer In Lackawanna county
Is being supplied, free of cost, with
weekly Issues of the National Bimetal
list. This paper Is printed at Chicago
by an organization of forces represent
ing thq owners of western silver mine.
Its editor, H. F. Bartlne, ha3 long
been an agent of these mine-owners.
The object of this free distribution of
course is to gain votes for the giving
to the mine-owner of a standard dol
lar for every fifty cents' worth of their
silver bullion. Every vote they can get
for Bryan means a vote to rut mil
lions of dollars Into their own pockets.
It Is u gamble on the credulity of the
agricultural vote.
The Toronto Globe, Canada's ablest
newspaper, thinks that as the campaign
in this country progresses, the rout:d
money side will be carried to victory
by conversions from among the orgu-.t-Ized
worklngmen in the cities who now
seem to favor frte silver. It adds:
"They have everything to lose by a
free coinage triumph, as t lit 'last price
to respond to the debased currency
would be tho wages of labor."
A large majority of the worklngmen
are Protectionists, who have had their
belief In Protection greatly strength
ened by the events of the past three
Democratic years. They will think
twice before voting for Bryan and free
trade.
Mr. Uryan and Mr. Bland should
make their Lumen and Pythian act one
ot the regular features of the campaign.
It looks nice, It is harmless and It la
a great deal less risky than trying to
give serious arguments In behalf of free
silver.
Those Illinois Democrats who want to
split the forces of sound money would
look cheap If as a result of their foolish
partisanship the government of the
nation were turned over to the revolu
tionists. Oratory, no doubt, is a very fine art;
but for practical purposes horse sense
Is safer.
THE PASSINQ OF CLEVELAND.
Rochester Democrat-Chronicle.
Where Is Cleveland's luck now? WhHt
has become of the man of destiny? The
Democratic hero of three national cam
paigns, the man who, of all others that
could he named. Including such men .is
McClellun, Seymour, Huncock and Tll
den, not to mention poor Horace Greeley,
was the only one who could laad the De
mocracy to a national victory, Is now at
the close of his second toriu In the. white
house hated, denounced, rejected and
spurned by the national convention of nls
own party. Tho Democratic party In Its
highest representative council deliberately
declares that the only Democratic presi
dent it has given the country In more than
a third of a century does not deserve even
so much of a complimentary reference as
la comprehended In a formal declaration
that his administration has been honest,
courageous and faithful.
II
t? No
Not honest? Not courageous? Not
faithful? With what amazement must
President Cleveland have observed the ac
tion of that committee on resolutions In
refusing him a testimonial to the posses
sion of those qualities! Has he not for the
past twelve years, in season and out of
season, been proclulming himself the
anointed and consecrated high priest, pro
moter and exemplar of those qualities In
the public life of this nation ? Has he ever
failed to talk about honesty, courage and
fidelity In any of his official documents?
Yet here Is his own party, the party that
he has uniformly declared to be the spe
cial depository of all the political virtues,
refusing at its last national convention
before he delivers his valedictory to pub
lis life, to admit that his nmdlnlstratlon
deserves a word of approval in Its plat
form. But that is not' all '1'he repudiation of
Cleveland by the Democratic party has
been positive aa well as negative. It Is
marked not only by what the convention
refused to put in Its platform, but by
what It has actually inserted. Blow aft.-r
blow Is administered to the president by
that instrument. First the free silver
men come up In a body and, lifting their
hands, smite him with their dishonorable
plank. Then came the anarchists and to
clalistic agitators as represented by Alt
geld, their boots soiled by tho mire of
their bloody and dirty doctrines, nr.d with
kicks and blows pay the president off for
his action In ordering troops to support
the cause of law and order. Next appear
those who favor a more liberal treatment
of the pensioners than Cleveland has
ever shown and they revile him. Prom
beginning to end, with the exception of
the tariff plank and one or two minor ut
terances, the Democratic national plat
form Is aimed more to discredit and re
verse the Democratic national admlnlnird.
tion than to antagonize the Republican
party. All the nntl-Cloveland elements of
the Democracy that have been accumulat
ing through two administrations seem to
have concentrated their forces at Chi
cago with a view to heaping shame and
indignities upon their own president.
But wc do not suppose that Mr. Cleve
land will give way under this opprobrium.
Incased in his own self-esteem, believing
supremely in himself, he will go through
to the end. unconscious that he has be.
come almost un object of pity even to his
enemies. The time when the value of his
lofty faith in himself can be fairly tested
has arrived. The Republican party, of
course, has little respect for a man who
has pursued such a policy as his at horns
or abroad. The Populists never had any
use for him, and now that the Democracy
has turned against him he stands alone.
But he has had two terms In the presi
dency; he has acquired a large fortune;
he has a charming wife and lovely chil
dren, and he will continue to think W ill
of himself.
THE MISSING WORD.
Somewhere In realms of musty lore.
Where spider weave and book worms bore,
Where shadows In grotesque array
Hold revels anil defy the day.
There Is a word: a grewsome sound.
Writ In strange characters and found
Within a tome, which hideous elves
Guard as they grin from moldy shelves.
It Is a most uncanny thing.
Wild as the songs that warlocks sing;
Lettered In signs that come and go
Like brimstone's flickering, pallid glow.
'TIs all In vain we strive to find
This thing so missed by all mankind;
This word, which, once we loosed Its
tether.
Would suitably describe the weather.

For examples of the proceeding at Chi

other civllsed nations will bo r4r.sac.k0 J
in vain. In the frenry and mildness of
the French revolution the Jacobin were
too prudent to threaten the nation with

NOT FIT TO BE mESIDEXT.
From the Wllkes-Darre Record.
Tho Scranton Tribune yesterday apol
ogized for having on Saturday referred
to candidate Bryan as a "blathersltito."
That Is right. Whatever criticism Retub
lican papers may properly pass 'on the
candidate of the Democrattc-Popullst-An-arclst-Free
Silver Coinage party. It Is
only fair to recognize the fact that Will
lam Jennings Bryan is personally a clean
and honorable young man; that he Is
bright, brainy and eloquent It would 00
worse than foolish not to admit. What he
Is sorely deflcient li is experience, dis
cretion, sound judgment and statesman
ship . The qualities that have given him
prominence do not alone fit a man for the
great office of president.
THE QUESTION OF AGE.
From the Salt Lake Tribune.
Mr. Bryan is younger than any other
man was when nominated for president.
But ho Is older than Alexander Hamilton
was when he framed the financial system
which we desire to have restored, older
than Napoleon was at Austerllti, olr
than Alexander the Great was when he
had conquered the world, older than
Q rover Cleveland was when he was elect
ed sheriff of Erie county.
QUICK TO HESPOND.
