Hon in the purchasing power of a
dollar.
Supposo you are a pensioner Rett
ingtUa month. Your $12 is as
good as gold and the products you
must buy never were so cheap as
they are now. If prices double, as
the free silveritos say they will, you
will bo ablo to buy with your $12 on
ly half ns much as you can now. If
you are a kboi iug man you will have
to pay twice as much as you do now
for the things you need. You may
get higher wages, too, but you
won't get twice as much. If you
are paying money into a Building
and Loan Association or a life in
surance company you are paying
good sound dollars, dollars that ate
as srood as cold. If we get free
coinage, you will bo paid back with
cheap dollars, (53 cents.)
Do the people of Snyder county
want the integrity of our money
system assailed? We can not be too
careful of our credit with other
countries and our first duty is to our
selves. We can not afford to fall in
liiie with such anarchists like Till
man. Allgeld and Herr Most. Give
us Sound Money.

MIDDLE CHEEK.
What Free Coinage Means.
Tho iron eoinago movement was
originated by tho owners of tho sil
ver mines. The mine owners dosiro
to take to Iho mint M cents worth of
silver and got a dollar for it. Just
as well might tho farmers of this
county ask the government to raise j
tho piico of a bushel of whoat from
53 cents to $1.00. Indeed there is as
:cttch logic in the one as there is in
tho other and if the farmers of Sny
der county are willing to allow them
selves to be hoodwinked by the do
lusivo argumeuts of tho freo silver -itos
they will learn to their Borrow
that tho free coinage of silver will
benefit only a few.
The gn at cry now is that it will
benefit the debtor class. Let us Bee.
If the man who holds a mortgago
against your farm learns that wo arc
going t' havo cheap money the
mortgage will bo foreclosed or tho
debtor will bo compelled to
given mortgage payable in gold.
Tnis very thing occurred iuSunbury
last week. A man needed ii00 to
pay on his home. 1 lo was compelled
to give a mortgage payable in gold.
The man who loaned the money said
he was giving money as good as gold
ami he wuuted the sunn) kind in re
turn, lie further stated that if
Dryan were elected all the mort
gages ho held would bo foreclosed
unless tho borrowers woro willing to
givo him mortgages payable in gold.
A gang of populists and anarchists
stole control of tho Chicago conven
tion, forced upon tho democratic
party tho issuo of freo silver coinage
expecting to repudiate almost half
of their debts, expecting to pay 53
cent dollars for tho 100 cunts dollars
thoy received.
Tho West was developed and built
up by Eastern Capital and even now
tho Diiilding and Loan Associations
of the West aro seeking Eastern
capital to build up their towns and
cities, to improve their land,
build their barns, stock their farms,
buy tho machinery for their iudus
tries and in fact for everything they
heed to br "illio now life in tho in
dustries of tho West.
They find fault with tho banks aud
baukcrs, thoy say the Jvist is mado
up cf gold bugs and usurers, but
they forget that tho essence of their
thrift is mado up of tho bono and
Binow of Eastern capital and East
cm economy.
To clearly prove to Suyder county
farmers the fallacies of tho freo nil
vorites' arguments wo will admit,
for argument sake, that tho freo and
unlim itod coinage of silver will raise
tho price of whoat and other pro
ducts. If tho price of tho com
modities tho farmer has to sell is
raised tho price of the commodities
ho must buy will rise in tho same
proportion. But, truly speaking, it
will not bo a riso iu valuo of thoso
commodities, but it will be a roduc-
