Money to be culation. effective mast be in clr- Mark Hanna is doing Platts help after all. lo need Tom Too many trusts and monopolies in the U.S. Isn't that a fact? A campaign scheme this year for Me Kiuley is to make employes rote forxold or lose their job. Unjust legislation made it a 53 cent dollar. Now let the people undo the wrong and make it a 100 cent dollar. Newspaper business would be lively it all the specifices tor political ills were to be advertised at a round price... Mark Hannah Is the man, ah ! ISItSSM Who runs things. Mr McKinley as Richard III is reputed to have said: "I think there be three tucnmonaa in the Held. There are things to indicate that. There is no mistaking the ring to Mr. Bryan's remarks at Nsw York. He is to the point, tie speaks like a scholar and a statesman, not like a demagogue. No Mark Hannah has hold of a chain There is no chain. "Mr Blaine speaking in the house of representatives on the 7th of February, 1S7S, said : 'The struggle now going on in this and other countries for a single gold standard, would, if successful, pro duce a wide distress throughout the com mercial world. The destruction of ail ver as money and the establishing of gold as the sole unit of value must have a ruinous effect on all forms of property, except those investments which yield fixed returns in money. 1 hose would be enormously enhanced in value,' and wonld gain a disproportionate and un fair advantage over every other sort of property.' " Governor Stone in notifying Mr Bryan of his nomination said : "This man our leader. Under his banner and guid ed by his wisdom we will go forth to conquer. Let as rally everywhere on hilltops and in the valleys and strike for homes and loved ones and our native land. I have no donbt of victory. It is as sure to come aa the rising sun. And it ill come like a sunburst, scattering the mists, and the nation, exultant and happy, wid leap forward like a giant re freshed to that bub destiny it was de- sined to accomplish. This man will be president; bis administration will he a sinning epoch in our history, for te will leave behind him a name made illustri ous by great achievements andby deeds that will embalm him forever in the hearts and memories of bu country men." There Is another thing that most not be overlooked. If free coinage should have the tffect of laisiog prices say 25 per cent, as it probably wonld, an era of genera! prosperity and business activity would ensue. Labor would be in great demand, wages would rise, there would be fewer idle men, and the profits of pro ductive industry would increase. Tte qnestioa is not what wonld be the effect of free coinage on certain individuals pecu'iarly situated. The question is how would it bear upon the condition of the couotrj as a whole. Beyond a doubt it would improve the condition of labor, and of productive industry generally. As labor lies at the foundation of all prosperity, whatever improves the con dition of labor must benefit the nation at large. Ex. Mr C D Lane, who left here last even ing, is the superintendent and, with Messrs Hayward and tbe heirs of the late Mr Hobart, owns the Utiea mine at Angei's camp, Calaveras county, says tbe Salt Lak Tribune. It is supposed to yield about $750,000 a month in gold, and to pay net between $3,090,000 and $4000,000 annually. And beside, Mr Lane baa other mines all tbe way from Alaska to Arizona, and as fast as be gets any money be buys more mine. But he is one of the m wt intense silver men in the United Stales, and he gives as a res son tor bis belief in silver that it is an absolute necessity to tbe business and civilization of the world, on the ground that no men except a favored few can possibly keep even so long as tbe prices of this world are eteadi'y falling; that no man with propeit can afford to bire labor while property is falling ; that tbe present result is a natural one ; that with tbe falling price, men who bave money prefer to leave it in the bank rather than invest it, and bile that state of aff sirs lasts, the very integrity of the republic is put in danger. And who mill doubt bis reasoning? Why Silver Depreciated. The most extraordinary event of 1S93 is that on the 231 day of June the commercial value of silver bullion per onnce, fine, in tbe city of New York was upward of 80 cents per ounce, and the same ounce oi silver cn the 29th day of Jane only six days, cr 141 hours later had fallen to sixty cents per ounce, mak ing a decline in 144 hours of twenty-fire per cent, in the value of a precious mon ey metal bullion. Now, the goldites claim that this de cline is a reason for destroying silver as money, when the fact is the dnclins is solely owing to the Eoitliab goldites' machinations, whiuh, resulted necessari ly is the proportionate enhancement o! the value of gold, and the proportionate depreciation in value of securities, com modities, wages, etc., measured by gold. What was the cans" of this decline of twenty-five per cent. (25 percent ) in 144 hcurs in tbe commercial value ol a pre eions money metal bullioh, the most stupendous occurrence, unparalleled in tbe history ot money? Was it caused by a sudden discovery of vast and enormous new mines ot nil ver? No. Was it caused by an enormously in creased output of the mines already known? No. Was it caused by a sudden and great reduction in tbe cost of mining silver? No. What was the cause? Solely and simply tbe closing of the mints to silver of a nation of 2t :,0'jO,0(K) people. I refer to the closing of the mints ol India by the order of the British Govern nsent in India on tbe 20th day of June, 1893, conquerors and subjugation of the Eist Indian- people by force of arms. Destroying bimetal ism means the en hancement of the value, say of 1 percent of its wealth, I. e., the gold, and the de preciation of 09 per cent of its weilth, that is, everything except gold Mr. Lacey in Bimetalist; Abuse nnd Ridicule Will Not Do. j Heretofore the advocates of the gold standard have attempted to settle the qutstion by abusing and ridiculing every body who believes in the free coinage of silver. The issue has now reached a stageat which even the most extreme gold organs recognise the necessity of umeiuing more substantial and more convincing. When three great national parties, representing considerably more than one-half the voting population of the United States, make the free coinage of silver paramount to everything else, it should be apparent that it is something more than a "craze." And it is appar ent. Epithets and invective will not win in 1S96. "fifty-cent dollar." "sound money," "honest money,'" "crazy fan atic," "anarchist," and all that array of goldite phrases with which we are so fa miliar are absolutely witnout meaning and prove nothing. The people want argument and will have It. If the gold men cannot furnish satisfactory argument on their side, their cause is lost. Some of the leading papers lo the country now clearly perceive the true situation. The action of the Chicago Record in throwing open its columns tor a discussion of the silver question is a very suggestive circumstance. Itot long ago a free silver paper in Chicago was regarded almost as ao un clean thing, and "business men" were actually afraid to advertise in one lest it might injure their business. But things are changing. Now the Chicago daily having the largest circu lation of any paper in the city is actually engaged in giving its readers the silver side of the controversy. Nothing but discussion is needed to decide the Ques tion for free coinage. In view of the unsatisfactory conditions existing for, lo! these many years under the gold standard, the plan of the silver men is sorely worth a trial. No g jldite hah shown or really attempted to show how it could do auy norm. They simply shout "ruin!" "dishonor!" but they prove nothing. Lt Of have argument Bimetalist, Pcnnoyer's Affairs. Mayor Pennoyer explains matters in an interesting manner in lbs Ortrgonian : Port Ito J, Aog.tl l.Iu your issue of this morning yon publish a lecord of some notes that I have taken, and say that "Mayor Pennoyer ia at heart and in fact the worst kind of a goMbuc," be cause the notes are made payable in "United States gold coin.'' Tbe body of tbe note was printed and was not changed. If you. who bave taken such a great Interest in my private affairs a to publish them on your ed.torial pjt, wilt come op to my boose ibis afternoon, I will agree to change tin? w..! "gold ...... . . coin to "legal tend'-r money, jou bt ing the witness. Now, in regard to these notes, 1 am not and have not been money-lender. For 4) years I have spent what I made in improvements. Bat now, as the result j of tbe gold standiud policy, it is unsafe to do so any longer. Tbe firt not was part payment for three booses I sold at half price. Tbe next three represent money loaned to men to save their homes from foreclosure. It was reloctantly loaned, because I feared if we remain on a gold basis the property might fall to me and become, like all otber property, of little or no value. I did not want to leave it in tee banks, because nnder our present financial policy, all our gold is going to Europe, and soon the Lai.ks will be unable to pay their depositors. 1 could not invest in aoy batice that would pay. Two years ago when I canvassed Ore- goo, tbe Oregonlan accused me of being worth a quarter of a million Today the valne of my property has shrunken more tban half. I own a naif- interest in one new sawmill, which mill property repre sents $ I '50.003. I cannot ron it at a pro fit aod I cannot sell it at half price. When I look at our ruined business the deserted brick buildings on the main streets of Portland, the large crowds cf idle men with fa nities who appeal to me for help, all the reeoli of the sicgle gold-standard policy, I repel the charge that I am a gold bog, because it is op probrious, criminal and false. Stlvbsteb Pexsoteb. That SJ-Ccrjt Dollar. Eddor lh vtcct at: Of ail tbe silly twaddle that I ever beard this 53-cent dollar talk is tbe worst. Does any man with a thimble full of sen us thiok tbe bolUon value of silver wonld remain wheie i' is now il we had free coinage? If I had a lot of silver bullion and a speculator sliould come along and boy it at the present value, and take it imme diately to tbe mint and have it eoined, making 47 cents on each dollar, does aoy sane man think for a moment the mat ter coul.l be kept a secret? And if not kept a profound secret wouldn't tome one else do the ssme thin? And if sevsrl or many pi rnns wre making such transactions please tell ns how long the bullion value of silver would remaio where it is now. C. It is asserted that an eastern bicycle factory recently received the following letter from a Kansas farmer. Deer Sirs I live on ml farm near Hamlin, Kana. am 67 year old and just a little eporta.

The sharpest thing No bloomers for us. Rome wheat aiter all. Milo carried a yearling a mile and then ate It, according to the Democrat's remembrance o: a tradition; but that is all the good it d;d Milo. So there are people row who put themselves out to gratify their jimbitions and desires, with nothing to show tor it after the fuss is over. It pays to ltvs a good, clean life. The sword is not the sharpest thing in the world. Words cut deeper than swords and ink often makes a gaping wound. The letters of Junius arson recoidasthe finest specimen of satire; but occasionally we see nowadays at the hands of newspaper writers articles that are full of kniv-s, cutting to the quick without haggling. Most anybody can baggie, but it tikes a genius to cut clean ly. UaggliDg may hurt, but a clean deep cut goes to the bone. That takes choice words, aptly put; sentences em bellished with the right epithets; illus trations that fit, facts that tell. An ex cellent example in this tins of compos! tion wss the article published in the . Examiuer during the week written by Mr Lewis, with Mark Hanna as the tas j get, that Mark Ilanna with tbe 9 mark ed coat and greedy face of minor ruin, flabby in its selfishness, brvwkinn no op position ; the Mark IUnna not running for president but running a man for president whose note he has hid away in reserve for 118,000; tbe Mark Hanna wboeename is on everybody's lips In admiration or with a curse, unknown a year ago beyond his own state, now no torious from sea 1" sea if not from pole to poic His big hulx under Lewis's trenchaot pen is cat sharply and often in s bundled pieces, giving ao example of satire rarely presented. We refer to the matter tu a literary way Ibis Satur day eveuiog without regard to tbe poii. tics of it. As lor tLe Dkmotbat man he wilt not wear bloomers, aod as he studies the bloomer subject ba co use lor them ex cept lo the mountains where they might prove a blessing in traveling throogh the brash, or in batbioic where they are a necessity. faring the week the threshers in Linn county here fairly made the straw fly in tbeir bsite. The result is some excel lent wheat, not so much as we would like to have but a good deal after all. Figure I hat !peak. The folloeing i an exa(!e of the manner In which the New York VUjld is supporting McKiniev : in his speech to a deIcaUin from Pennsylvania tsro or three days ao Mr. MKinWy said: "Whatever may btuordifieteeeesebout ;be economical priociplsupoo wfeich our tariff legislation should tv made, all serve that the present Una taw is a fail ore, even as a revenue measure iio without discussing lue principle of tre trade or proWciioo, everybody must ap preciate that no law is a settlement which creates every month a deficiency in tbe public teatory." Aod be added that the people will not b satisfied until a tariff law is enacted hicb will "provide adujoat revenue for the needs of the Government ." By this Mr. JIf Kioley means a higher tariff thoash when he increased the daties in 1S90 it was with ths avowed purpose of diminishing the revenues to stop tbe surplos. In tbis he was so successful that tbe roitotns collections fell from $223,000,000 in 1(0) to !77,0,ft in IS92. a loss of $32, CO ).'.-. Why 1 es be still stick to the stupid paraJjx that iocreasing the tariff is a panacea alike fjr a surplus and a defi -it ? It ia not admitted that lbs Wilson bill is a failure. The d5cit is du primarily to the extrsviir,ce of congress. There was a dliciency in each of the last three months cf the Harrison Administration. But even this would bv deen overcome if the inc-ime tax had not been nulliSed by a plutnrratic ronsplracv. Tlc tariff yield-d U:.X.000 in 15 and SlSO.fMO, Q3 for the fiscal year that ended oo June 30. In its second year the McKinley tariff yielded only tlSl.OOJ.OCT) and in its last year 1177,000.000. Furthermore, under the present law the etporlt of manufactured goIs have increased to $22S.0O0,00O. or nearly 5 per rent of tbe whole. Coder tne Mc Kinley law they ranged from 151, 030.OJ0 totlM.OuO.O'W. The law which McKin ley tails a "failure" has, by removing the tat on raw material, enabled our mcnufacturers to sell 170,000,00.) more of their products abroad increasing by so rrocb the opportunities and .reward of labor to our own country. That the uoveroment needs wore revenue is tn', ow'ng to the reckless ex travagance of C.Migress in iucressing the cost of pensions, for one item, $100. 000.0)0 in ten years! But lie tariff should not be torn to pieces seam. The country needs rest and stability in a matter so vitally affecting business cal culations All the additional revenue required can be secured by Internal -revenue taxes oo a fw articles like beer, bank checks and sotns of the luxuries that have been exempted one after nother by Con jjreises complaisant to wealth. If Mr McKinley wants democratic votes to offset his bases to free silver he is not adopting a course calculated to secure them in promising another tariff for bounties and in-ire protection for trusts.
