Sixteen to One'liOynlly Defended by an Old Stand-D'y. ' - - OREGON 'CTTCP: July 29 (Td'fne kEd Itor.) Although the 'tenor of Republican!.' criticisms of the supporters -of silver, which merely consists ofthe two asser tions' thai- they would ' 'drive "oat1 gold" with abase,:money', and that' 'they" wish to pay" their debts With tT"4Scent tibilar,. does not entitle them to reply7 yct,'rlri re-'' snonSn to tho ohnlln!r"rf fht Aniirnnlnn in Saturday's" '-Issue, -J' will ask- you the following Questions. But! flrst-I willisLatn following questions. But5 flrst-I 'will-stated that it hasbeen"'seveh''years since our NatioWar 'financial system, fathered and-; controlled 'Dy tne Kepuoiican party, with out interruption, -Mast fell down and crip pled itself so badly thatsortiethlnjrjiad1 to be done. The opponent's of the' gold standard presented their plea for free silver and National paper money "as the remedy. "The campaign -of 18S3 was ex haustive, and whatever the merits of the dispute, the people are evidently 'tired of the subject. The voters evidently do not regard themselves a3 capable of judg ment upon tho question, and have turned the matter over to the bankers to fur nish a remedy. The bankers have fur nished it in the pew banking law, which in short means that the people furnish tho security in the shape of the new ls7j sue of United States .2 per cent gold bonds. This pledges all the .property of the people for gold to redeem all cur rency, including silver, making gold alono full legal tender, fixes Its price,' and leaves all other properties and val ues entirely at the mercy of the fiuctua tlons in the volume and flow of gold. On tho purchase of these securities, the banks are allowed j.o issue their own noKss to the full amount and loan:to the petle, and are supposed to be." better able to keep them vlrcul,ting sldt. by side with J-old than the Government is its own no ts. That is, the people are- ex pected to be better satisfied with ibank notes than with Government notes. The bankers are relied on to supply In this way and keep in circulation all the cur rency supplementary to gold to' supply r.e demands of trade without injury to v:i ces, and enough gold to supply gold when demanded. For' this service, the people are willing to1 pay the banks 2 per cent 6 per cent for the use of Tnoney and 2 per cent to keep that money good. Two per .cent on a substitute is the oompensation the banks get for their successful war against silver. If the people have 2 per cent more of faith in tho banks' than they have in the Government, when a Government 2 per cent bond sells at 104&, the plan is worthy of their Intelligence and the party with better plans -can only- await develop ments. The Republican party has treat ed tho people in, this, currency matter like they trap elephants in India. The wild elephant Is surrounded in the woods, and gradually driven intd a hidden, pit, .vvhere' he is left until nearly perished foi ''watcr'and food, when his capto'rs" bring h m good food and water 1 1 d .efully. lift, him" from the pit. K is then so grateful that he allows himself to. be come their docile slave. Just- so .'from 1892 to 189S, tho- people suffered so for lack of 'currency that they are "grateful for tho -bank-note Telief, -"altno.ugh' the. K 1 1 -standard lurks in the background rea Iv t 1 gobble 'up their securities "like. the king on a chessboard gobbles up the 1 pawns. They say we nave nine kinds or currency. The others besides gold are the queens, knights, bishops, etc., of the world's financial chess game, all having a more limited movement than gold. Grid was made the sole standard of currency by England, the home of the Rothschild banking-house, in ISIS Bank of England notes wero made to supply the deficiency of currency. Now, ques tion 1. With this exception, did not gold and silver circulate as money metals-wlth free coinage throughout the world at a Hopkins-& .Co. BROKERS Chamber of Commerce 'on or About July 20, 1900 S.V ratio ranging between 15 and 16 to 1 up to 1873, when silver was demonetized by the United' States? Question 2. In 1S73, when the demon etization act was passed, was' not silver at'a slight premium over our legal ratio of 16 to L the market ratio being 15.92? Question 3. Did not the country enjoy rVat-r financial peace and prosperity from I860 to 1873, with less of panic and bankruptcy, than at any other period, and during this time was riot paper our sole currency, except perhaps, on the Pa cific Coast? Question 4. Did not Germany demon etise silver shortly after the United States. in 1873, on the plea of overexpan slon of currency during the levy of the great war Indemnity from France, but in reality to unakef that levy greater? Question 5. Was it not at this time and from this cause that silver went '"below I par, so that in 1S74 France and the Latin Union felt compelled, also to demonetize , silver? Question 6. "Was not the continuous decline .in silver from this time due to tliese acts and subsequent ones, such as the act of Congress of 1S7S, authorizing "private contracts .demanding gold; .the actidn of Secretary Carlisle in" paying 'gold n. coin bonds -when demanded, and 'the act of 1S03 repealing the purchase clause of the Sherman- act? Question 7. If silver, notwithstanding its lack of recognition in Great Britain,' J- maintained its' position as -world's money at tne ratio or, ,16,, to, i;oc less up to ":fe(3, and at that time was' at a'sll'ght pre mium, and. there was no excess of cur- . Tency" as evidenced by slpwly' falling gen eral prices in this country, what reason existed lor the demonetization act of "-CongresRiof thaf year?-' ' Question 8. Great Britain produced but little silver. The United States more than -any other country. Would not. the Republican policy of protection . in this v'$s"q -dictate' .hat she should t qpposo '.irhpr tp'ap, follow tho Brttishigold stand- fiiva, ,ajlu wouiu' now our tveaierii -oitivca prosper from ,then Increased;- price 'they ; woum get for; stiver in. tne great un 6htal "market?,. -" 3ut the silver question has undoubt edly been-slioved out of the foreground. , Tho people'a Interest Is drawn. elsewhere. Jf The Oregonian desires to drac tho t question out and attempt to make it tho "paramount issue," let it do so and it will find out that this Is the case, and also that the opposition Is still sincerely in favor of free stiver at 16 to 1, and ready to .take up the fight whenever tho fpeople make It an issue. The issue in volving the greatest material interests on' this Coast is the Chinese question. Our fathers braved the hardships of a '"pioneer life, toplant a civilization with higher political 'and social ideals than those of Europe. They succeeded,, and (today the wagejearner can be a 'better citizen and a. higher type of man on this Pacific Coast than anywhere else In the world.. Labor is not degraded as it has been in our Southern States by th,o negro race. Thpro the prevailing wage for la lor Is 50" cents per day. If our people are not vigilant and do not demand of Con gress protection from tho importation of f Asiatic labor now going on through Canada, our Coast will be ruined also. :A sample is seen on the Fraser River. Tho white and Indian fishermen want 23 bents per Ash for fish averaging about 25 pounds an absurdly low price. Yet jtha canners are importing Japanese to fish for 20 cents. Our civilization is tho structure of hundreds of years of intel ligent struggle.- "We do not want it cor rupted with the industrial degradation of thousands of years of misrule" in Asia It .would Indeed be a philanthropic act to,-send an army to China and civilize it, but is that the motive of the pioneers In.' the movement? Do they -not see mill i6ns of money in the commercial and in dustrial exploitation of 400,000,000 of Chi namen, and want to embark our Nation lrfthe movement, even though it should destroy by Importation of Chinese la borerif and products our citizenship and "corrupt all our, institutions and ideals? The North Pacific Coast of our country Is In process of settlement, and Its fu tures depends upon the character of Its Immigrants. Above all else, at this junc ture, .It is .important that conditions shall be "maintained to invite the best immi grants to be had. Good wages, good so cial conditions, healthy public ideals, will bring them. The reverse will bring a h.prde of Asiatics, and, while it may put a 'few dollars In the pockets of greedy capitalists, it -will ruin oo future, Just asthe introduction, ot the negro, ruined tlws. progress of the South. And worse ..thejChlnama'n Is a more hopeless citizen for' this country than the negro. ' - ' " " 'J. B.
