There 1u:h been no more drspleabl fill bi cd evolvo'l during- this etunpnie.n than is embodied i.i the ro'.e-atert In .;iiuifitlniin of V.rynn thf.t the employ ers of the country have undertaken to coerce their employes into voting for McKlnh y. This partlrular bit of detti nguKhvm sprouted forth about the time It was announced that certain railway companies were iioHtlng no tices unking: their men to read Hound money literature. One of the most luonilnent offenders in thin respect. If offense it can be called to invite the pub He to a cainpaiKn of education, wan M. K. Insalls, president of the Chespeako and Dlilo .railway. Mr. Ing-alls lias been abused right and left by the r.ryan organs as a tyrant, a bulldozer and a slave-driver, merely because he ventured a few weeks ago to express a wish that tho men who work on tho railways of the I'nited States would Btop and think before voting; for free silver, with Its almost certain crippling1 of the transportation business. The fol lowing dispatch shows Just how much of n tyrant Mr. Ingdlls is: New York, Sept. 8. M. E. Insulin, presi dent of the Chesapenke and Ohio and Hlg Four rullrouils, iuMt tsing his "fellow em ployes" nt Clifton Kurd, I'a., last Satur day, said he hail received marked copies fioni time to time of newspapers contain ing the charge of coercion of employs. For ten years, he' snhl, the Choeipeeke and Ohio and its employes had got along very well together without the asslstaive of the newspapers mid could do bo still. .Mr. IngnllH told his employes that the riuht to vote their sentiments was the grandest right that had come down to them; that it was better than all the gnl.l In the world. "What I ask you to do," paid he. 111 conclusion, "Is to go home, rcml all on the subject you ran Ret hold of. think It over, anil then vote as you-ile-clile best. If, after studying the question, you decide to vote for Hryan and Sewall ttgalnxt what we consider to lie the best Interests of the Chesapeake and Ohio, nnd If anyone disc hurif" you for so voting, come to me and I will discharge the man who dlscharKed you and put you back." Any man who' Is willing to think ought to require no more thnn a mo ment's reflection to bo convinced of the gross Improbability that any consider able number of employers are con templating a policy of coercion among their employes. Such a policy would not only make votes for Bryan under the secret ballot now In use In nearly oil our states, but It would also mul tiply greatly the already expensive fric tions that exist between capital and lu Imr frictions which every prudent em ployer seeks nlways to minimize. Mr. Uryan'n (lemapoglKin in this respect may attract to his support temporarily an emotional class of workingmen who do not stop to weij;h words and motives, lint It will have the effect to alienate that much larger class of tollers who believe In fair play and common sense. The question !s, Did "Washington know what he was talking about when he said: "It (Inflation) will not benefit the tanner or the mechanic, as It will only enable the debtor to pay his debt with a shndow Instead of a substance?" The Iiepubllcan parly thinks he did. Thus Far, a Clean Campaign. The observant journalist who contri butes to the Philadelphia Bulletin over the pseudonym "Penn" states a patent truth expressively when he snys: "It would bo difficult to point to any pres idential campalpn In which there has been, on the whole, so fair, reasonable and Intelligent discussion of principles and issues as there has been this year. The slime of the sewer rats has not thun far been permitted to nauseate the pub lic nose In any reputable Journal. There have been tew vlllanoua slanders and personal indecencies, and even the car icaturists have for the most been good natured rather than malicious. The abuse has been more In hc way of generalities than of personalities, Jloth McKlnley and Bryan have escaped the deluge of mean brutalities that were heaped upon Grant, Ureeley. Oarneld, Cleveland and Harrinon. and the fellow that crawl on their bellies In unearthing the (Virata ttves of candidate hava had little or no encouragement from the press." To what extent we are indebted for this freedom from offensive personal ities to the two courteous and chivalr ous candidates It would be difilcult to determine. Even the Tlllmans nnd the Altgelds have been shamed by Mr. Bryan into' a, semblance of respecta bility in their discussion of men and measures, while as for the Republican nominee, he became celebrated years ago for tho .equipoise of his temper and the quiet manliness of his methods of public debate. Examples thus eminent have forced their lesions of decency and personal amiability upon therubor ilinnte disputants, until, as Major Mc Klnley himself happily remarked the other day, .this has become "a year of political contention without bitter ness; a year for press and pen. the only force needed being the force of reason." Not less gratifying In its way has been the fairness with which the party press on both sides has given the po litical news of the day. It used to be thought the duty of a partisan editor to edit the news just as he would edit his own opinions. The Idea twenty years ago of a Republican paper printing a Democratic speech or vice versa would have given the Oreeleys and the Ray monds of that generation an appopletic fit. Hut in the interval public Intelli gence and, more than all. the public's cense of fair play, have been lift- d up, until today that paper would quIcKly Icse the confidence of its traders which should rtttempt to palm off on them garbled or distorted news relative to the public activities of a political op ponent. The question Is: Will the pres ent high standard of controversial ethics last? flncerely hope so. Advices from Washington nre to the effect that Mr. Cleveland is beginning at last to appreciate the magnitude of he political chaos In which Democracy has become Involved during1 the period of his leadership. N'u doubt the retro spect Is somewhat disturbing to tho president's vanity; but It will not be long until he will have plenty of com pany In his misery. There Is no pos sible outcome of the present canipilgn which will not have the effect to swell the sad chorus of "what might have been." Civil Service Reform. Under the Interpretation of civil ser vice principles which prevails today in Washington It appears to be considered pernicious partisan activity for a Demo cratic olllceholder to be caught working for the Interests of the regular Demo cratic nominee. Assistant Pension Commissioner Hell is one of the occu pants of federal otllce who feel In duty bound to work for tlrynn. He has not yet been formally decapitated for his temerity, but the understanding Is that he will be as soon as his case shall be reached by his incensed superiors. On the other hand, Comptroller Kekles showed no scruples In going as a dele gate to the Indianapolis convention and in taking active and conspicuous part there In opposition to the party organ ization which gives him his present office. Neither does Secretary I.ninont hesitate to pronounce In a public Inter view In favor of Palmer and Huckner, while at the same time Secretary Hoke Smith Is forced back Into private life because of his disinclination to Join In an organized bolt. We mention these little circumstances merely out of curiosity. They Involve no new principles and signalize no new departure in ofllclal precedents. Per nicious activity as Interpreted by. the party or the faction In power has ol ways meant any form of activity det rimental to the Interests of the Ins. Nothing was ever said as to the per nlclousness of activity put forth in be half of the appointing power. Not withstanding the touching esteem of the Mugwump cult for the sincerity of Mr. Cleveland's pretensions as a civil service reformer, we have been unable to discover any case throughout his public career where activity In the direction of Mr. Cleveland's preferences was ever rebuked by him when exerted by nn official subordinate; and tho pres ent Immunity from official discipline of those active Democratic ofllce-holders who are busy fighting Hryan only serves to confirm our suspicion that the cle ment of bluff Is still far too prevalent In the contemporary enforcement of tho civil service laws. We will not pretend that in this re spect, one party la better than another. Neither have wo cited the foregoing Instances with any desire to hinder the good work of mutual destruction now in progress between the Democratic party's two irreconcilable wings, het the fight go on. If the friends of Mr. Cleveland are sincere (and we believe they are) in their opinion that the high est duty of American patriotism at this time is to secure and safeguard the soundness of our money nnd tho saercd ness of the nation's financial honor, then Indeed ought they to use eyery energy to secure Mr. Hryan's defeat. Tho office-holder who Is active In work contrary to patriotism certainly ought to be disciplined. We do not marvel at all at the course which Mr. Cleve land and all other sound money Demo crats are pursuing, liut we cannot help thinking of how this particular kind of civil service reform would in terest and amuse a foreign observer, oay for example Li Hung Chang. From advance sheets of Poor's Man ual for 1893 it appears that the capital ization of the l!i,42u reporting miles of trcet railway In the United States ag gregated 187,809 per mile, as against $80,18S per mile of steam railroad. In other words, while the capital of the steam roads Is generally believed to be heavily watered, the capital of the atreet railroads must have reduced watering to a fine art. This conjecture is supported by many well-known par ticular Instances. In fact, one doesn't have to go far from Scranton to find an example in point. Hill Is taking his time, but will swal low the dose. "I do not know what yon think nbotit it, but I believe that it is a good deal belter tn open the mills of the I'nited State, to tho labor of America, than to pen up the mints of the I'nited Slates to the Oliver of the world." WII.I.I.U1 M'KIXI.EV. S The proposition of residents of North Ablngton township to thecity of Scran ton relative to the construction of a new road through the Notch, which was laid before the municipal authori ties yesterday, Is liberal enough to de serve consideration. The new outlet would easily bo worth $1300 to the city. It would remove the objections arising from the fact that the only road con necting Scranton with the fertile coun try directly north Is a toll road. Inde pendent of the merits cf the city's com plicated controversy with the present turnpike company, the fiict is evident that there would be ample business for a new toad and that a new road which would also be a free road would be p en c ra ! 1 y popular. If Dun Lament wants to make Hire of a victory for :o:nd in n y. why doesn't he advise uli bound mom y Doiiioernts to turn In for McKlnley? The amlld.icy ;f I:ncle Palmer Is only an li'idctvi nt ilii.aoi. The difference between the coming reault in Jluine and the past result In Arkunsus will be thot in Maine the ma jority to be counted will lirst have been legally cast. - - The rtpardsh press censor at Havana seems tu have encountered a pacific mood these days. The trouble with the Scranton ball club's rally is that it comes too late. TRUE AND FALSE BIMETALLISM. Three distinct notions are Included in the conception of bimetallism. They are as follows: first In order that a monetary system shall be truly bimetallic, silver uud gold coin must both circulate as money. Second They must circulate ut par with each other. Third The purity between them mast bo real and not anlllelul. Jt must be due to an equality ill commercial value between the silver contained In u silver dollur and the gold contained in a gold dollar, ii !l II We have not In this country, at the pres ent time, true bimetallism; because, al though gold and silver both circulate as money, nnd although they circulate at par with each other, the parity between them Is not real but lietlilous. The govern ment has undertaken to maintain the sil ver dollar at parity with gold by mi ans of legislation, it has declared that silver dollars shall be u legal tender for tho pay ment of all debts, public or private, to uny amount. Tills Is In effect a loan of public credit us truly as If the govern ment had agreed to redeem .silver dollars (as It redeems I'nited States notes) In gold. With this explanation ami understanding, we may be said even though we huve not true bimetallism, to have u modllled and limited bimetallism, iilthnngli gold Is tho legal standard of valuation, !! II II The Issue in the present campaign may be stated as follows: Shall we preserve or abandon the modllled bimetallic system which we have, under which the country has enjoyed such 111) paralleled prosperity? And If we decide to make a change In our monetary system, shall It be to true bi metallism, or to silver monometallism? The Republican party, in Its platform, has declared Itself in fuvor of true bimetal lism. It Is In favor of the use of both gold and silver ns money, and In favor of making the silver dollar not merely nom inally but actually worth as much as a gold dollar; but without a change In the coinage ratio, it does not believe that this can be done, except by International agree ment. The change which the Republican party desires, nnd which It has pledged Itself to bring about If possible, Is a change from limited ami modified bimetallism to bimetallism true and complete. I' h :l The advocates of free nnd unlimited coin age of silver at the ratio of HI to 1, oil tho other hand, are not true bhnetalllsts, be cause (i they do rot declare themselves In favor of on Increase In the value of the sil ver bullion contained In a silver dollar from r.:i cents to Pjo cents in gold; CI) whip! they favor making silver dollars, each cf which contnlnes Jil'i grains of pine sil ver, a legal tender for 100 cents, they over look the fact that the coinage of nn "un it .i Itcd" number of dollars of that weight would strain the credit of the government to a point at which the silver dollar would not be accepted by the public at its face valuation, and It would accordingly cease to circulate at parity with gold; (li) the consequence would be, that gold would be hoarded or sent abroad in payment for im ports and Interest, and the only coin in ac tual circulation would l2 silver. Tho friends of free nnd unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of Hi to 1 nre, there fore, renily though soma of them arc not aware of the fact advocating a change of our monetary system from our present modilied and limited bimetallism to prac tical silver monometallism. The only es cape from tills conclusion Is in the asser tion that the effect of frea nnd unlimited coinaire of silver at the ratio of Hi to 1 would be, by Increasing t lie demand for sliver bullion, to lulse its market price, so that 271'i grains of sliver bullion (the amount of pure silver in a silver dollar) would be exchangeable nt par for 2:1 -iJi) grains of cnld bullion (the nmoent of pu'-e gold In a gold dollar). Some of those who advocate free and unlimited coinage be lieve this; others 1o not. II II li There Is not only a complete nbsencc of proof that this effect would follow: tiiete is every reason to think thr contrary. The ilifT'-rcnce between the coinaire ratio of gel I and silver (li; to 1) nn.l the comnv r. clnl ratio (31 to 1) Is too great to he thus overcome. I!y "coinage" ratio is nietut the comparative weights of go! 1 and slier dollars;. .a stiver iloil.ir weighs sixteen tlmi - i ns much rs n gald dolh.r. By "com mercial" ratio Is mi ant the comparative weights of gold and s'lvcr bullion of eq't il value, uncoined. In the markets of iMe world. Moreover. th lat published re port of the ilirertor of the mint shows that from January 1, 1S7J, to June ;i, the number of jtuni1:i.o silver dollars colnel was In ro ind numbers 4r;!.iin,iii, or about U-Mtbs of the total number coined sin-e tho foundation of the government, ami yet the bullion value of the silver dollar ile cllned, In the f'ce of this Immense pro duction of dollais, fnmi i'.l cents In 1H7H to 33 cents In ISM, How would unlimited coinage have prevented this decline? II H II Kroin this statement of the distinction between true nnd false bimetallism. It Is evident that the friends of free and un united rolnnge of silver at the present legal ratio, V! tol, are not genuine bim lal lists. The Republican party, in common with genuine biinetalllsts everywhere, is opposed to the free coinage of silver at any other ratio to gold than the commer cial ratio. The Republican party, there fore, I the party of genuine bimetallism. The Republican party is the friend of the silver dollar, since it desires tj maintain it at purity with gold. The advocates cf unlimited coinage are not its friends, be cause the effect of their policy. If adopted, would be to reduce Its purchasing power to a! cents. CAMPAIGN LITERATURE. As the campaign progresses the volumo of economic and polittcul literature grows perceptibly. Krom ilenjaniln ' it. Tuek-r, New York, comes a pamphlet entitled "Proudhon and His 'Hank of the People, " being "a defence of the great French an archist showing the evils of a specie cur rency, and that interest on capital can and ought to be abolished by a system of free an.l mutual banking." The author is Hon. t'harles A. Dana, and the compila tion consists of newspaper articles wi it nsn by him in his verdant days nearly tiity years ago. Its publication now Is cll'ictcd by Mr. Tiuker with ghoulish glee in the notion that It will embarrass tho now conrervutive editor of the aim. From the pen of ' William C. Cornwell, Buffalo, comes another dime pamphlet of value entitled "Ureenuarks the Silver Trouble and Its Causes." It la a strong argument for sound money reinforced by several telling illustrations. One of these illustrations, an original Idea of Mr. Coin well's is striking In the extrema. The pic ture is that of a beautiful girl pouring out free silver to the people. Hold the picture up to the light, und behold, the beautiful gbl fades away, leaving only a grim skele ton, entitled "What Free Sliver Really Means." A scroll, grasped by the skele ton lingers, bears tills legend: "We pay our debts In tlfty cents on the dollur and make it legal." i: ii ii From Alden, New York, comes another new solution of the money ditlleulty, in the form of a book by Moses Samelson en titled "The Way out.'1 Mr. Samelson's scheme is a joint metallism, la which gold nnd silver furnish the basis nnd security for paper money to be Issued by the gov ernment In the place of coins. His elab oration of this nri.tii.Mltlon is careful and i imrentous and It will Interest ull serious economists. II II il On the oilier side of the political bound ary line we have "Sliver, the .Money of the Common People," a dime pamphlet pub lished by the K, T. Hayes I'ub. Co., Postal Telegraph building, New York. It com prises the Chicago platform, a sketch of liryiin, gems from Ids speeches and re productions of sliver editorials from tho New York Journal. II II II From I.ninl & Lee, Chicago, comes "Our Country's Honor," a bandy little pamph let for a dime, that contains Major .Mc kinley's letter of acceptance, a sketch of Hon. (iarrct A. Hubart, together with his speech acknowledging the notltlcation of his nomination by the Republicans for vice president, and several other documents of value to Republican campaigners, II II II William Morse Cole, formerly instructor in political economy nt Harvard, has writ ten in "When Coinage of Silver Is Free" (Boston: Mathews I'ub. Co., 178 Devonshire street), a powerful refutation of Bryan sophistries which every voter should read. Its price, likewise, la one dime, II' II II "Tho Gobi and Silver Question nt a Glance," being a pronouncing and defining vocabulary and catechism of pertinent questions, conies from the Excelsior Pub. Ushlng house, SB City Hall place. New York, It defends sound money and costs ten cents. SEl'TIOJIHKK. By June Marsh Parker, In the Outlook. Purple nstors here at last! And thistle-seed a-blowlng!
