Chauncey Deew Bays Bayard la the most popular American In London. In Bayard's case that Is the exact reverse of a compliment. . -v One beauty about Tom Reed" speeches Is that any man who has any brains worth mentioning can under stand every word he says. Mr. Blaine, to be sure, favored ,tho double (or Joint) standard, on an In ternational basis. In that respect he differed from Bryan, who, while pre tending to be a bimetallism Is In real ity .working for the single silver stand, aid, which means GO-cent dollars and commercial retrogression. The United States Is a great nation, the greatest on earth. But the United States, in all Its greatness, doesn't pos sess strength enough to force the worl 1 to accept 50 cents' worth of silver bul lion bearing a Yankee stamp at a val uation of one dollar. It cannot make two and two equal eight. It Is the verdict of traveling men who Journey from the west that the free coinage epidemic is already on the de cline, and the action of the Colorado state Republican committee In decid ing to stand by McKInley and the St. Louis platform is a circumstance that seems to corroborate this theory. There is one factor In the present political problem which it would be wise to keen in mind. When the women of the country learn that free silver will mean, according to the promises of Its advocates, a doubling of the cost of bread, tea, coffee, sugar and other arti cles of food, without any corresponding doubling of the ppportunlty to buy, will they permit their husbands to vote for It? Not by a good deal. ' When we first coined silver in 1792, we made the ratio between It and gold IE to 1. This ratio, we found, underval ued gold. Then, in 1834, we changed the ratio to 16 to 1. This ratio, it was soon found, undervalued silver, but after ward silver was produced in such abundance that its ratio toward gold began to fall until now it Is down almost to 32 to 1. The point we wish to bring out Is that gold, at all times, has been 'the constant, and sliver the variable. Gold is always the "1," and silver the n5," the "If or the "32." Gold, there fore, is the stable standard. The Cleveland correspondent of the Pittsburg Dispatch telegraphs to hi paper: "One thing may be stated pog. ltlvely, and that is neither Mr. Hanna nor Major McKInley will consent to give up the tariff as a leading issue of the campaign for the sake of the support of the Whitney followers In New York tand New England. This much has been settled at the several interviews which Mr. Hanna and the major have held here during the 'last two days. The other demands which TlHt the gold Democrats have made havo been left wholly In Mr. Hanna'a hands, by Major McKInley. Mr. Hanna may make - any arrangement he sees fit, and Major McKInley will agree to it; but the tariff Is to be put forth in all campaign speeches and made a lead ing Issue, notwithstanding the stand taken by the gold Democrats." The free traders will not have the pleas ure of being let off without a trial for the misery into which their policy has plunged the country during the last three years. "The money of the United States, and every kiad or form of it, whether of paper, silver or gold, must be as good as the best in the world. It most not only be current at its full face value at home, but it must be counted at par in any and every commercial renter of the globe. The dollar paid to the farmer, the wngo-enrner and the pensioner must continue forever equal in purchasing and debt-paying power to the dollar paid to any gov ernment crcditor."-McKinley in His Speech of Acceptance. The Republican state committee will gladly mall political literature to every voter requesting It. The Republican who has a free silver neighbor should send his name to Chairman John P. Elkln. Philadelphia. 1 Free Silver and the Farmer. We unreservedly agree with The Manufacturer In Its opinion that the present Inclination of many eastern newspapers to ridicule and satirize the farmers of the country because as a class they are Inclined to favor free coinage is wrong in Judgment and per nicious In policy. Our contemporary opportunely points out that the agric ultural masses of the country "have al ways been the great conservative body of the country: have always stood fast for the maintenance of public order, and for opposition to extreme measures and violent changes." They are some times misled Into wrong conclusions, but they are never, as a class, guilty of conscious dishonesty. To jeer at their just grievances and make sport of their misfortune Is to do In the first place a very foolish, unmanly thing, and In the second place, a very danger ous thing; for should the farmers ever be moved to band together In a spirit of anger for the punishment of their traducers, mischief would certainly be to pay. The safety of the republic de pends In the last analysis upon the prosperity of the tillers of the soil, who create the chief part of Its wealth; and therefore it is the highest work of patriotism to endeavor not to inflame but to tranquillize the farmers and to point out to them safe and rightful avenues to self-Improvement. There cannot be denial of the fact that the average condition of the Amer ican farmer is one of serious hardship. While the merchant, the banker and the manufacturer, living within the cir cle of urban social and educational ad vantages, rise as a rule to affluence and distinction, the farmer, who Is perhaps morally their superior, works hard, de nies himself and his family much, and when he closes his account, finds him self very little better off than when he began. Such a contrast Inevitably breeds discontent. In the cities, the man who does not succeed In life often turns anarchist and tries to blow things up. But the farmer, as yet has contented himself with political pro test Beldom wise, shrewd or effective, but rarely lacking in emphasis. Into this feeling of unrest demagogues have planted the notion that free coinage would right matters. Four years ago they told the farmer that what he need ed was free trade. Four years hence they will probably have an entirely dif ferent panacea. They play upon the fanner's misfortunes, not because they really care about him, but because It opens the door to their own enrichment or advancement. During this campaign we shall have frequent occasion to point out whether or not free coinage would be of real benefit to the farmers of the country. At present we shall content ourselves with offering for the consideration of those of our readers who are engaged In farming a few facts taken from an article in the Pittsburg Dispatch. That paper has computed the range of prices of sixteen staple farm products, taking as par the prices for the three years 1871-4, when silver was demonetized, and comparing them with the prices In 1890, '91 and '92; also In 1893, '94 and '93. This is the result: 18W-2. 1893-6. Wheat 73 49 Rye 80 70 Oats 100 78 Cotton 53 43 Ohio wools 68 45 Corn 104 87 Mess pork 83 105 Bacon and hams 93 103 Salt beef .81 81 Butter 83 97 Eggs 81 94 Horse 101 0 Mules 104 70 Milch cows 83 75 Sheep 100 81 Swine 122 121 Average 87 79 In reference to this table the Dis patch says: "On these 16 leading agri cultural staples, the average decline of the past three years is at a rata nearly four times as great per year aa the decline for the preceding 18 years. But that fact is no more instructive than some others which appear. There are certain staples which have ben subjected to well-known influences, en tirely outside of the monetary ques tion. The farmer, who Is urged to re lieve his position by voting for free silver, should ask these questions: "The prices of oats, horses and mules were as great or greater after 18 years or demonetisation, but then they dropped SO to 40 per cent. Would free silver have pre vented the development of the trolley and bicycle T "Sheep were worth aa much In 1890-1 as In 1871-4. Will the Democratic free trade candidate restore the tariff on woolT "Wheat and cotton show the most ruin ous decline. Would free silver have pre vented the opening of 160,000,000 new acres la this country, and of Illimitable nelda In Russia, Egypt, India and the Argentine Republic? And what difference will It make In the value or wheat and cotton to make a cheaper silver dollar when the price will be fixed by the same gold value In Liverpool? 'Finally, when the staples affected by special and well-known causes are taken out of the table, the average decline In the eleven remaining ones was ( per cent. In 18 years, and has since been 5 per cent. In three years. Does not this show that farmers need settled confidence and gen eral consumption more than further legis lative Interference with business?" "The farmer's position," as our Pitts burg contemporary justly concludes, "presents many problems, and some es pecial hardships. But If the facts are fairly understood, they show clearly that the monetary question has little to do with it. and that the free silver remedy Is the most arrant quackery." Read this from the Toronto World, of Tuesday: "There Is a considerable volume of American sliver In circula tion In Canada. If free silver should prevail In the United States, this coin would have no gold behind It to main tain It at Its face value. American silver would then have to rely wholly on Its own Intrinsic and commercial value. The gold Bupport being taken away, the American silver dollar would be worth only fifty cents of Canadian money. The free silver agitation has advanced so far that several Canadian banks and merchants have already be gun to refuse American silver. The Montreal Street railway says It will soon have to refuse American silver from the public, because Its bank, In turn, will not accept It from them. It Is very likely that this condition will soon become general. American silver will no doubt disappear almost entirely from Canada before November next." Before Protection was strick en down at Washington and business confidence unsettled, American money iwas acceptable at practically its face value everywhere In the civilized world. The Democratic national platform this year reiterates that party's famil iar call for a "revenue only" tarlir. Mr. Bryan, the Democratlo candidate, said In congress and on the stump, three years ago, that the Wilson bill would be a "revenue only" tariff. Well, we have since had a trial of the Wilson bill. How has It fulfilled Its framers' predictions? Who wants to put confi dence in their word again? Says the T'sies: "Should McKInley be elected he will be compelled to Is Bue bonds, just as President Cleveland has been." If he does It .will be Cleve land's fault. There was no bond issu ing until Democracy tried to smash ths Protective tariff, and the gold standard never gave us a particle of trouble until the nation, under free trade man agement, got head over heels In debt. Those Democrats who urge tha dl vlson of the sound money force by the nomination of a bolting ticket show that they put partisan intrigue above the public welfare. Fortunately the number of such Democrats is compara tively small "The Republican party stands for honest money and the chance to earn it by honest toil.".. William McKin. ley. . The tariff not an Issue? Who says so beside the tariff-wreckers, that have reason to want the Issue changed? WHO WOULD SUFFER. From the Philadelphia Times. There are in the United States 5,000,000 persons who hold policies In life Insurance companies, and they are Insured to the aggregate sum of tl3,0ii0.000,000. While two-thirds ot the 113,000,000,000 or insur ance Is held by men or fortune, the re maining one-third is held by men or mod erate means, and very largely wage-earners. A large majority or the policy-hold, ers are men without fortune, whose fam Hies would, be largely dependent upon life Insurance for support In the event of the death of the head or the family. The adoption or the silver standard would make the amount or life insurance paid to the 5,000,000 people who hold policies not over $7,000,000,000 in actual value, being a loss of W.OW.OUO.UOO to the policy-holders, a large majority of whom are dependent upon their dally labor. Tho wnge-earners of the country, organ ized as home-builders In the various build, lng associations or the country, have ac cumulated savings to the extent or S500, 000,000, by which most or them expect soon er or later to become owners or their homes. The adoption or the silver stand, anl would reduce the value or the savings or the wage-earning home-builders from 8300,000,000 to about S250.O0O.OO0. This loss would be suffered without any compensa tion to the people generally and with ad vantage to none unless It be the few silver producers. There are In round numbers 6,000,000 or wage-earners In the country who have deposited or their savings In the savings banks of the country over 31,800,000,000. This is the savings or the wage-earners or the country, and It has been deposited In dollars worth 100 cents in gold. The adoption or the silver standard would re duce these deposits or the savings or wage-earners nearly or quite one-hair, making an absolute and Immediate loss In the savings or labor or 1900,000,000, There are in round" numbers 950,000 pen sioners In the United States, made up or the veterans or the war and their widows and orphans. Their pensions amounting to 8140,000,000 annually. The adoption or the sliver standard would reduce these pensions nearly or quite one-hair, making an annual loss to the pensioners of the country of about 170.000,000. The various Industries or this country now pay annually to worklngmen 17,125, 000.000 In wages. They are now paid In gold or Its equivalent, and each dollar, whether gold, silver or paper. Is or equal purchasing power. The adoption or the silver standard would reduce the value ot the money paid for wages at the present rate $3,500,000,000 each year. The experience of the world Is uniform In teaching that when money has cheap ened In value, the wages or labor have not advanced in proportion. In 18G5, when the country was regarded as prosperous after the close of the war, although the nominal wages had been Increased over the wages paid In 1860, the actual purchasing value of the wa.es or labor In 1805 was but 64 per cent, or the purchasing value or the wages or the same class in 1860. In 1879, when we had resumed specie payments and re gained the gold standard, the wages paid to labor purchased 46 per cent, more than the wages earned In 1800, While the success of the free silver the ory that would bring us to the silver standard ot money along with the other silver countries or the world, would be de structive In every channel o commerce, Industry and trade. It would specially af. feet most disastrously the classe we have numerated: and when It Is considered that it would strike the Industrial and poorer classes to the extent of many bil lions each year, how can the honest work lngmen of the land entertain for a mo ment the proposition to plunge the coun try Into national dishonor, and all tha great enterprises or Its people into con vulsion and panic?
