What liavo Democrats to do with n man who has proclaimed that ho is not a Deino- crat j who repeatedly boasted of Ids intention not to support n gold candidato or a gold jil.itform ; and who is now, after two years or moro of intriguing with tho Populists, tho Populist candidato on a Populist platform? Tun coming convention of tho National Democracy is needed, for one thing, to set Orovcr Cleveland right in history. His pop trait was turned to tho wall by revolutionists In Chicago, but it will not go into tho record that tho party made tho deed unanimous. A Diaiocr.ATic paper-says tho thing to do with a proffered Mexican sil or dollar is to olfer 2Bc for it, as it is not a legal tender in this country. What this editor wants is Plainly just a flat dollar. The stamp alone MilliccH for him. Ho Is a greeubacker, talk' itu silver for a blind. Till! Uepubllcau candldates-havo selected the county chairman, and tbty have chosen well. Mr. Kd wards will no doubt noo himself equal to all emergencies in the present campaign, and heforo the contest is over our Democratic friends will wish that the other thing had happened. I'lom now o i tho battle cry should be, "To victory !" In his great speech at Alfred, Maine, last mouth. Sneaker Heed combined hUtory nnd prophecy in this tellimr epigram: "Tho man wliu is deceived once is human; tho man who is deceived twice bv the same persons is a fool." Tl.o voters wcie human ill 1802; thty will not be fools iu 1S0I). Tho rosy-hue d premises of plenty and prosperity made by the Free-Trade leaders in lk.U2 have dulled to tho dark reality of haul times, lovicr w.igos, and no work. Tho colors on tho 1'icc Trado palette ate as bright to-day as they wcru In lt.02 blighter against tho dark bickground of these Tariff liefoim haul tunes but the voters are better Informed in regard to the staying qualities of tho colors of Free-Trade promises. L'nrtNUht'lll, the leading bi-metallist of the world, and the man who ilrst used the term shortly after (iermany and the Latin nations had lost confiilenio in the stability of silver as money, has frequently expressed tho opinion that no one nation was competent alone to handle so large u question as the frco coinage ol silver, C'oruusclil is n distin guished Frenchman aud oxpro scd thisopiuion years ago. l'.very wiiter of political eeoiiuny whoso views are of any weight concurs in tho belief, yet every obscure mud-sllnger on spurious Democratic sheets kuovs better than such authorities as these, of course, nnd the Ions ho knows tho louder his views aiu proclaimed and tho more numerous ale tho chuicu epithets ho applies to all who differ with lilm. FREE-SILVER PRICES. "The free coinage advocates not only admit," says Mr. Maud, "but claim that the benefits tu bo derived from the free coinage of blher would bo to Incroaso tho prices of property and commodities." Thus, ho goes ou to declare, thero would bo an linmedlato Tevival of business, hoarded money would l o invested, and tho debtor would Mud it easier to pay his debts. This plan of restoring prosperity begins, it will bo observed, with the idea of Incieaslng tho prices of all things that tho people have to buv. That is to say, the (list step in tho bchenio of making life easier for those who are now soroly pressed lu the mat.er of pay iug for tho necessaries of lifo is to raise tho prices of all such articles. If n man can not prosper under tho present cost of living, how could he hope to do so if , that cost should bo doubled V The answer of i Mr. Illand is that there would 1 more money iu tlio country with which to pay the higher prices. Hut tho additional currency would not bo gratuitously distributed to the people. They would have to work fur It Just as they do now, and would receive only so much of it iu exchange for their laboras tlieir employers wore willing to pay thorn, In other words, tho prices of food, fuel, clothing and bo on would bo raised, but it would not bo In their power to ralso their wages. As a matter of fact, therefore, the claim that the result of free coinugo would lie an increase of prices may bo regarded as a con clusive reason why those who woik forwages or salaries should vote against It. Mr. Illand tells them that they would certainly have to lay moro for everything that thoy buy, but bo doos not bIvo them nny assurance of inantniiiui incjiut ta meet this additional ex penso. They liavo nothing to sell but thgtr labor. That Is" their enly toureo of profit, their only dependence for a living. Obviously, their advantage lies Iu la leg nllo to buy M much as possiblo with tho money that they receive for tlieir services. Their wages nro now higher than those of tho working pcorlo of any other country, uud tho money in which they aro paid has n groator purchasing power than lias ever bo- foro been known. An Incroasoof the pricoaof nil commodities implies a reduction of that purchasing powor, or, to Mate It In another way, tho cheapen ing of tho money received for labor nioniisn lemoning of wages, and there is no reason whatever to believe that such a loss would be made good by a general increase of wages equal to the advance In the cost of living. So when Sir. Wand proclaims that he and bis party nro striving to Increase tho prices of all commodities, ho practically admits that no wngo earner can all'ord to vote for free silver. Tho truth, tho whole truth and nothing but tho truth. That's our motto; nnd we add leather, solid leather and nothing but leather. That's tho way our shoos aro built. 7-18-tf Factouy Shoe Stoke.
