Hrynn rnme Into "the enemy's coun try," and left It again. And It nppears to be "the enemy's country" still. Patriotic Vermont. The vibrations of the opening gun of the campaign fired In Vermont are like mveet music In the ears of the patriotic. In the face of the bluff nnd bluster that has been raised by the disciples of dis content the Green Mountain state has exhibited her patriotism by doubling usual majorities in tho interest of pro tection, honest money and good gov ernment. The Republican victory in that state has passed the expectations of the most sanguine, but it is only a forerunner of what will follow in No vember. Many of our Popullstlc neighbors no doubt will argue that ns Vermont is a Republican state the victory was a na tural consequence, and is of no particu lar value as a campaign barometer. This, however, will not lessen the Im portance of the rebuke that has been administered the elements of discord by the sturdy sons of tho Green Moun tain state. The heated writers and In flated orators of Rryanlsm have made claims of large results that were sure to follow their labors In sowing seeds of discontent everywhere. They even place such states as Pennsylvania and New York In tho doubtful column. And now In little Vermont Instead of mak ing converts to the mischievous theories the adopted Democratic parent of Sil vcrlsm is about twenty thousand votes worse off than before the subject was brought before the people. This stinging rebuke to missionaries of the Uryan-Altgeld faith not only proves anew the patriotism of Ver mont, but it also Illustrates the hope lessness of the claims that are put forth by Bryan and his retinue who have mistaken the curiosity cf the people along tho line of his pilgrimage for ac tual Interest in his success. It is almost time for Billy Bryan to cut his parachute loose and come down easy. Neighboring Politics. The Democrats of Susquehanna coun ty have tied themselves up securely to Populism. At the convention at Mont rose on Tuesday the "Pops" wero In vited to participate and the gathering was a veritable love feast. W. C. Cruser, the congressional candidate, has for ome time past been engaged in the work of enlightening the people on the subject of free coinage through the col umns of his paper, the Montrose Demo crat, and his action in leaping into the hands of his friends at the convention may be taken as an Indication that he has faith In his own missionary work. Pome of the old-time straight-line Democrats protested mildly against a fusion with the handful of Populists .who received recognition at the. con vention, but the protest was unheeded by the majority ot hypnotized subjects of free silver orators. The combination of Populists and Democrats in Susquehanna county, however, will make no perceptible dif ference in results at election, so far as the Republican vote is concerned, as the Populists ure principally cx-Greenback- crs, Prohibitionists and political mal contents who have not afllllated with either the Republican or Democratic party since the Greenback craze that placed Justice J. U. McCollum on the bench. The average Susquehanna coun ty farmer is too well-informed and too sensible to be seriously affected by the cry of tho false prophets who are work ing in the Interest of free trade and a debased currency. The Popullstlc rainbow chaser up pears to have stumbled against a rock up In Vermont. "I do not know what you think about it, but 1 believe that it is a good deal better to opcu the mills ot the l otted States to the labor of America than to open up the mints of the I'nited States to the silver of the world." WILLIAM M'KINLEY. , 9 So long ns Turkey remains on the map of the world European powers have no right to pose as Christian na tions. Better Times Ahead. Orator Bryan declares that "we nre but upon the threshold of a period of depression which is Indefinite in dura tion nnd cannot be described in inten sity." Tills assertion, like many others mnde by tho misguided young candi date, is a falsehood. If Bryan and the dangerous policy that he represents could triumph at the coming election, it Is probable that his dire predictions would be fulfilled with a vengeance. But nothing of the sort will happen. The good news of each successive week causes the feeling of apprehension to pass away as thousands are realizing the dangerous ground upon which they have been treading In giving consider ation to the mischievous teachings of free sliver agitators. The thinking peo ple of the United States are alive t the situation. They realize the menace of proposed currency revolution, and regardless of creed or party are firm in the determination to protect the honor of the government. At the close of William Bryan's lecture tour he will retire to private life a breathless and doubtless a wiser man. With the election of William JIcKIn ley as president of the United States, confidence will be restored; the wheels of Industry will hum again nnd pros perity will smile on the land. We ure going to have good times nnd a pros perous future because tho voters of this country have had enough of experi ment nnd can bo relied upon to east their buliots on the right side when patriotism nnd national honor are ar rayed against anarchy and repudia tion. If, according to sllvcrlte theories, wages were Increased and the ad vanced price of farm products and manufactured articles increased the cost of living also, who would be bene fited by the change? All admit that a season of financial panic and business chaos would surely follow an attempt to readjust our currency system. Does any sensible laboring man or business man want to try the experiment? Base Ball Enterprise. The Inst of tho series of Eastern League base ball games will begin in Scranton today, when the home team will be pitted against the Wilkes-Barre club and some excellent contests may bo expected; Although the results of the season which is drawing to a close have not been just what the enthusias tic ball crank would desire, the home club has certainly given some excellent exhibitions of good ball playing under the present manager, and that the club Is not at the head of the league in the matter of percentage Is certainly not the fault of the directors of the associa tion. The ball enterprise has this sea son been conducted on a scale of liber ality throughout, and it Is to be re gretted that ill-luck and difficulty in securing players have made it impos sible for the team to be classed among the winners. Persons Interested In the national game will do well to show their appre ciation of the enterprise of the associa tion by liberal patronage during the balance of the season, that the owners may feel encouraged to make greater efforts for success next year. A pleasing instance of thrift and bus iness enterprise In the Electric City is given by the Colliery Engineer com pany. The plant of this institution was almost entirely destroyed by fire in the Coal Exchange on Sunday morn ing. Yesterday the announcement was made that the offices of the establish ment had already been opened in the Mears' building and that business would bo transacted as usual In tho new quarters. The Colliery Engineer company will occupy these offlces until the completion of their own buildings which are being erected on Wyoming avenue. History of Our Coinage III. BY JOHN SHERMAN. Prior and subsequent to 1873 many changes were made in coinage by tho leading countries of the world. "Ger many, In 1871, changed Its standard from silver to gold. France, Italy, Switzerland and Belgium had in 1863 entered Into a treaty called the Latin Union to which, other nations became parties, and by which the coins of each of these countries were received and paid out by all of them. This important arrangement was first modified and finally abandoned, and gold became the standard of value In those countries, but In all silver was coined and largely used as a subsidiary coin precisely as in the United States. In anticipation of the resumption of sjecle payments, the Resumption act of 1S75 provided silver coins, of dimes, quarters and half dollars, for the re demption of the fractional currency then In general useln our country. These new sliver coins gave great satisfac tion. They wero limited in legal tender qualities to $10. At this time Mr. Bland, of Missouri, introduced his bill for the free coinage of sliver at the ratio of 10 to 1 on the demand of the holders of sliver bullion. Silver had then declined below that ratio. One ounce of gold was worth more than sixteen ounces of silver. The Bland bill, if It had become a law as It passed the house, would have demonetized gold. Such was not the purpose of congress; When the bill came to the senate an amendment was made, on the motion of Senator Allison, which changed the scope of the bill and authorized and directed the secretary of the treasury to purchase from time to time silver bullion at the market price, not leas than $2,000,000 nor more than $4,000,000 worth per month, and cause the same to be coined Into silver dollars as fast as purchased. It also provided that any holder of the coin authorized by that act might deposit the same with tho treasury of tho United States in sums not less than $10 and reselve certificates therefor of not less than $10 each, and that coin deposited should be retained In the treasury for the payment of tho certificates on demand. This bill so amended passed both houses. It was known as the Bland-Allison act. It greatly added to the difficulties of re sumption, and for that reason was vetoed by President Hayes, but be came a law over his veto. Under its provisions the United States purchased over 291,000,000 ounces of silver at tho cost of $308,279,200. It was hoped that this enormous purchase would arrest the decline of sliver, but in spite of it silver steadily declined In market value, and at the present price the loss to the government on the purchase of sli ver under the act amounts to over $100,. 000,000. When congress met In December, 1SS9, there was a strong desire in both houses to utilize silver as legal-tender money under conditions that would not de monetize gold. As the result of long discussions in both houses and after a conference between them a bill was passed July 11, 18!)0, by which the secre tary of the treasury was directed to purchase from time to time silver bul lion to the aggregate of 4,500,000 ounces a month at the market price, and to Issue In payment of such purchases treasury notes of the United States, which was made a legal-tender In payment of all debts, public and pri vate, and were redeemable by the sec retary of the treasury in gold or sliver coin at his discretion. This measure. It was thought, would arrest the decline In the market value of sliver and enable the secretary to maintain the two met als on a partly with each other at the ratio of 1G to 1. But the market value of sliver continued to decline. The government purchased under the act of July 14, 1S90, 168,000,000 ounces at a cost of $156,000,000. This proved to be an expensive experiment, and the act wa3 repealed November 1, 1893. This repeal was accompanied by the following declaration, made a part of tho repeal ing act: And It Is hereby declared to be the policy of the United States to continue the use of both gold nnd Bllver ns standard money, and to coin both gold and silver into money o( equal Intrinsic and exchange able value, such equulity to be secured through International agreement, or by such safeguards of legislation as will In. sure the maintenance of the parity in value of the coins of the two metals and the equal power of every dollar at ull times In the markets and In the payment of debts. And It Is further declared that the efforts of the government should be steadily directed to the establishment of such a safe system of bimetallism ns will maintain at all times the equal power of every dollar coined or Issued by the United States, in the markets and in the payment of dubts. This declaration, made by congress and approved by the president at a time when the public mind was cen tered upon the silver question, is a wise statement of public policy that ought to be acted upon without regard to party divisions. This bill passed a house of representa tives fresh from the people by the vote of 239 yeas to 118 nays, and the senate by the vote of 43 yeas against 32 nays. This act was not a party vote, but it is, I believe, the expression of opinion of a majority of the two great parties of the country. And here we ought to stand. GOLDEN NUGGETS. Selections . from Newspaper Columns Tbat Show the Folly of Debas ing a Currency. Whilo the debt-paying power of silver is doubled, the purchasing power will be reduced one-half. There Is not a man, be he laborer on the street or president of the United States, but would find that his daily wages or his yearly salary went only half as far as It went in tho clays when sil ver was kept-at par with gold. There is not a widow or an orphan but would find that tho life insurance policy was worth in purchasing power but half of what It would have been worth, or n pensioner but would find that his $12 a month was worth but i'j. And some men nre persuad ed that by such a policy prosperity can be restored to the land! Cincinnati Com mercial Tribune. CHEATING THE CREDITOR. If these glorlflers of the old order of things could restore the conditions tint prevailed previous to 1873, and muke the market value of silver what It was then, they would not want free coinage. Thero would bo nothing In It for them. They could do better by selling their silver In the form of bullion than by having it coined Into dollars. . What they really want is cheap morey, a kind of money wlih which creditors can bo cheattd. They ure not trying to put silver back to Its old place, and re-establish the monetary tern that existed before the "great crime" was committed. Their scheme docs not Imply tho coinage of better dolluu than those, we now have, but Inflnltely poorer ones, which can be used In the payment of debts at the rate of S3 cents on the dol lar. St. Louis Olobe.Democrat. MINTS AND MILLS. The mints cannot make a bushel of wheat worth a dollar. Mills which build up new towns and people them with pros perous communities that Increase the con sumption ot breailsUUTs will raise the price of wheat quicker than nil the free coinage laws that can be enacted. Tha mints cannot creato value. Only tho brawny arms of honest toil, directed by genius and Intelligence, can create va!u The mints cannot create prosperity or happiness. The opportunity to earn the best money In the world by legitimate industry is tho plan proposed by Major MeKitilcy. No sensible or honest Amer ican expects to get money In any other way. Idle workmen want the wages of the mills; the mints can give them noth ing. Chicago Times-Herald. A WORD TO DEMOCRATS. To establish the policy of free colnago of silver on Individual account at the ratio of 16 to 1 would be to set aside the prin ciple which has prevailed since tho birth of our republic, nnd to make a currency that would be cheaply acquired by some and dearly obtained by others. It would be class legislation ns grossly unjust as any that ever provoked a revolution. It would be favoritism more outrageous thun any perpetrated by the Mclvlnley tariff bill or contemplated by Hanna In case he has the opportunity to make an other McKlnley tariff. The proposition to print Into trear.ury notes all paper of a certain class brought to the government printing office at Washington would be scouted as a preposterous scheme for en riching paper manufacturers. How does this differ In principle from the proposition to coin Into legal tender dollars all tho silver that the mine owners may bring there? Uoston Post. WARIX; TO PAPKIt THIEVES.
