Now 's the day and now'a the hour, ' See the front of battle lower;" See approach Mark Hanoa'a power; Hanna's chains gold slavery 1 Who would vote with such a knave? He'd send you to a pauper's crave. Who would live that miser's slave? Better death or victory. Mark Eanna Ratal lor the laboring man I Mexico, on a silver basis, sells bonds in London for 94g cents on the dollar. Portugal on a gold basis is selling 3 per cent gold bonds at SS1, and the com mon laborer receives 17 cents per day. It we cannot elect McKinley on a tariff issue, say the republican managers, we must stir the animals up with the fifty cent dollar, great scheme, but we have been there before. The fools are di- mlJiBhicg and the gold men are un happy. - . Free coinage does not mean that the Government shall work for the bullion owner for nothing. It means that the Government will not take any toll out of the bullion itcoics except barely enough to cav the cost of doing the work aad supplying alloy. This cost is only fraction of 1 percent. A few republicans are trying to make out now that they are friends of silver. 'Let no man be deceived," says J B Montgomery : "Major McKinley is for this country continuing on a gold stand ard. He is not in favor of bimetallism, either national or international. Any man who pretends that McKinley favors international bimetallism ia only pre tending. He cannot be in earnest. Let the producer of commodities understand this. He has Joined the money owners and is against the farmers and pro duners." After a quotation from Abraham Lin coin the Journal of Eugene, Secretary of State Eincaid's paper,says: "If Abraham Lincoln did not know what the govern ineot debt waa payable in, who did know? Would President Lincoln send the old soldiers out to mint "silver and sold" to make it easier to par the war debt, as be said he would do, and then demonetize eilver to make it twice, nay fivj time more difficult to pay? Pres ident Liacoln intended to pay the war debt with silver anJ gold at the legal ratio in force at the day of bis death, 16 tol. Has the war debt been paid yet, old soldier? Why not? In October lS9i, Hon C W Fulton, of Astoria, spoke for free silver aa follows: "I am of the earne opinion now that I have been since I have given the subject special thought and attention, that it is useless to hope for international agree- j ment providing tor the coinage of silver or ila adoption as money metal, and the sooner independent action is taken by the government in the matter, and its mints opened to the free and unlimited coinage of eilver and gold at no time greater ratio than 16 to 1, giving to both full debt paying power, the better it will be for our industries and the sooner will prosperity again attend us." "Sy free coinage I - mean unlimited and an re stricted coinage, I do not think we could maintain silver on a parity with gold if the coinage were restricted to the Amer ican product. We must sustain the value the the world over in order to sus tain it here.' Sow Mr Fulton has been brought into line and is going directly back on most of his former assertions. The statements, though, live and speak for themselves. Astoria News, of" Oct. "th, tells the following: 'Street corner oratory reached the high water mark of the campaign this morning when there were four separate crowds being addressed on the corner of Commercial and Tenth streets at the same time. Speakers were present in abundance and ail they wasted was a alight encouragement to launch forth with eloquence on the cause which they championed. . The meet in that attracted the largest crowd was between Rev. Dr. Driver and Sidney Dell. The former is a gold bog and ia considered one of the best posted goldbug orators in the state. But Mr. Dell ap peared to get all the best of the' argu ment. The Rev. Dr, Driver was deny ing that the republican platform de clared for a gold standard. 'We favor the existing gold standard quoted his opponent from the St- Louis platform. 'Un'il we can get an international agree ment,' added the doctor. Until then we must grin and bear it, the doctor con tinued "Is the gold stands rfi right or is it wrong, doctor? insisted Mr. DelL who was in the discussion. Finally, the doctor, on being pressed, said : The sin gle gold standard Is wrong 'Must we grin and bear a wrong law?' quickly re plied Mr. Dell 'We, a free people.' " Those Portland Lawyers. CRAWFOkDtviLLg, Or., Oct 12, 1896. Editor Democrat: i The well perflated lawyers that are being sent out of Portland to speak for the Eog'ih system of finance are doing good work for the cause of Bryan and free silver. Their denunciation of the free eilver forces a free silver cranks, lunatit-s and anarchiets are making votes every day for free silver and the cause of humanity. Mr McConoeli in bis soeech at Leba non classified the populists as dishonest and unrepresentative class of men, and to my certain knowledge made votes for Bryan. Mr Joy, a Portland lawyer who spoke at Orawfordsvilie on lat Friday Oct. 9, eaid the Chicago convention was not a representative class A men that nominated Mr Bryan, that his followers generally were a lawless ho ly of men repudiators and a dangerous element to society. He further said the poor were getting rich and the rich were getting poorer, and that the poor were the cred itor class of this country. He said to move tin eilver in the United States would tak 75 trains 20 cars to the train 10 tons to each car, and to cap the climax he wound np his lan guage by paying a glowing tribute to Herr Most and the supreme court of the United States. He refused to divide time with M A Miller, of Lebanon, who spoke there in the afternoon at the close of Mr Joy's denunciation of the plain people of this country. He wai challend by Mr Miller to debate the isanes of this cam pa;gn at any time or place he might des ignate. We. notice that poor ivalliue Me Camant is to tender the good peop'e of Liuo county ia an English dade style, with a Ucture on fiat money, and the anarchy of Mr Bryan. May the. Lord have mercy on his einbicility. Butterworthon Free Sliver. The following are extracts from a let ter from Ben Butterwortb, who will soeakin Albany tomorrow, to H. M. Teller, on April 29, 1896, and printed iy order oi the U. S. Senate as a part at the records: : I forwarded to you some days ago a letter I received from Mr. Samuel J. Ritchie, of Akron, Ohio. Mr. Ritchie is a man of large ousiness eapncuw and has had extended opportunity to etidy men and measures both in our country and abroad. In the letter he giveB the reasons that Induce the belief that the demonetisa tion of silver and the closing of the mints was not in accord with sound financial nalicy nor yet consistent with a just de sire on the part of the capitalists who forced the policy upon the country that it should be in the interest of the mass of the people, but that, on the contrary, it was in effect a scheme no matter by what other name it may ba called which operated and could only operate to promote the interacts ot the few at the cost of the vast majority who produce the wealth of the nation but are power less to control the press acd the politics of the country (o protect their interests. having only the ballot which unhappily has become such a merchantable com modity as not to be a readily available agency to secure needed reforms. Our apparent inability as a nation to accomplish satisfactory results by adopt ing and adhering to a policy which does not conform to that which obtains among the other leading commercial nations of the world made me doubt the wisdom of making the experiment. 1 thought un til recently that, possibly, if congress should proclaim to the world our fixed determination to pay every debt in gold or ita euaivalent. confidence would be restored and our industries be quickened. and the gloomy conditions paw away But I am satisfied that those of us who indulged that hop were in error. Every bonest citison must feel an anxious concern that we shall not place ourselves in the attitude ot endeavoring to cancel our obligations to foreign cred itors without fully paying tbem . But it has devaloped that we are like ly to be lea soticitous about the rights ot our own people than we are about the advantages of capitalists of other nations. tu whom our country men are indebted England and other credit ir nations. that is, the money power ot those na tions (which must be distinguished from the will or preference cf the people), as a means of increasing the value ot their credits, succeeded in securing the de- monetizition 6i one half the world's money of ultimate reJemp'.isn and pay ment, and closed the mints against silver, knowing when they did it that oneionrtb of the srold money ot the world waa locked in the vaults ot certain nations as a warTlnd, and hence n at serving the purpose ot money a a circulating me dium, and obviously by this spacoiative measure the value of tiie money used to buy of ns was greatly reduced in debt paying power, so that when we come to pay those creditors we find they have so manipulated the money of the world that they have reduced the market value ol everything we hav to eell to raise mon ey to pay with, and by the demonetisa tion scheme increased ton purchasing power of the money they will accept in pavment, and demand of the farmers and others who produce the wealth of our country two bushels instead ol use, two pounds instead of one that was their due, and take three acres in foreclosure instead of the one tbey might in justice appropriate for the debt. In other words tbey demand a dollar that has only one half the debtpaying and double the purchasing power of the dollar they loaned ns, and which in jus tice they are bound to accept in payment of what we owe them- An bonest purpose to pay the last poor scruple that is due our creditors is wholly consistent with a refusal to per mit the creditors to reduce tie volume of money available tor business purposes by one half take one fourth of the bal ance out of circulation thus in effect substantially reducing the debt paying power ol the money loaned to as, aad at the same time doubling the purchasing power of balance, and compelling pay ment in the money thus overvalued; that is, compelling double payment. Unfortunately, the multitude that have l- ''bear the beat and the ba rd;n" have sm ill opportunity to be beard in the council, and they find the ballot a slow and very uncertain meaus for cor recting evil. Beyond that tbey are lasbed to a par tisan machine, and the machine ia con trolled by combines. Tbey have no money, and hence find themselves bought out and 8014 out as often as polit ical interests or exigencies demand. There is quite as little excuse for the legalized defrauding of the farmers and other producers of our conn try as there is reason for plucking the money chang ers of London.' Neither act can be jus tified or tolerated. But the producers have not tried to pluck the money changers, but the cap italistic combines in England and other nations have not culy endeavored, but, aided by allies in our own country, have succeeded, by manipulating the money of the world, in fleecing every farmer and every other producer of wealth in the United States. The policy has been promoted in the name of aa honest dollar, the descriptive terra "bonest" being used for what baa proved to be' the dishonest purpose of fleecing every producer in the land, until the people, debt ridden, tax ridden, mo nopoly riddeu. and mortgaged to tb'e lip, are In a state of rebellion. . . Was ever an honest dollar made to perform a mission so dishonest 1 If the testimony that comes to us from bench to bar, from mill and factory, fie'd and farm, forest and stream, store and shop, church and schoolbouse means an) thing, it is made clear to every in telligent apprehension and there can he no well grounded hope of permanent prosperity for the m.ips of the rer,ple until the omnipotent power ol monopo listic combiues is broken, and tbey cease to dictate the legislative and adminis trative policy of the national and the several state governments. Independent monopolists at one end and dependent citizens at ine other does not present the mut encouraging out look in a comtry with institutions like ours, especially in the absence of a larger measure of jitlics and auinvmy and purer politics God spend the dy when our Govtru ment shall part corurmoy with socialis tic paternalism, and ico out of the bank ing business and stand as it ought to, as guardian of the peace; coin our money, gold and silver, and let m, without mo lestation, work out our own salvation, using the b mndiess rnouroes sod vast opportonity with which heaven has blessed u i. The conviction is growing that the demonetization of one half the money of the world, no matter what theoretical t financiers may say, is and was, by those who were chief cout'ivers of the manner ol its accomplishment, intended to he ft scheme to Increase by legislative en artment the wealth of those who are al ready wealthy and the power of those who are already too powerful. That it has done so is certain; that It has taken from the farmer and confis cated half the product ot his fields is sure. And now, as a measure of relief he is urged to tax himself still further aa a means to increase his atBets. If it be said that our securities will come pouring home lor payment or to be thrown on the market, and thus intensi fy the panic, in case we insist on ft re turn to bimetallism, the answer is, to tar as the panio is concerned, that our people are already at the bottom and have been lor more than four years; there is no lower depth to reach, they are standing on bed rock. The taxgatheier takes what the usurer leaves. Let the securities come, and pay them with the money and currency of the country, even aa we accepted that money and currency from the lenders. We have net in the whole United States enough gold to pay 15 per cent of the face value of the securities held in Eu rope. It the holders desire to kill the goose that lays the golden egg, let them first learn that" that goose -has been pressed and equeexed to the limit, and will lay no more eggs that lack a sub stantial alloy of silver. The English financier and " capitalist says to his countrymen: The United States Government has consented to compel her citizens to pay us ia gold all their debts, public and private ; not only that, bat her ever redeemable but never redeemed and that will not stay re. deemed greenback can be so manipu lated as to compel the Government to supply the gold for teat purpose, and hence she sells ns bond to get the gold ; and, better still, each dollar of gold we pay for the bonds cornea back to as on the next steamer that aaila from New York; and, better yet, we have by our financial scheme enabled yoa English men to buy American produce at half the price and accept demonetized silver or painted rags in payment, while we make them pay what they owe us in gold, the purchasing power of which we have doubled by demonetizing silver. Is it not folly to suppose that the cap italulaot England and they are the capitalists of the world will be easily persuaded to agree or consent to biuiel-! ..- . nr. . .... - . . I allism? Why should tbev ? How is it to their interest to do so while we con sent to make it to their advantage to re fuse? They have doubled the value of their credits by demonetizing silver, and thus in effect doubled the interest re ceived by them. The Cailid States blundered into tbat trap, and within a year beggared a mil lion of her citizen?, aud it we adhere to the blunder will beggar five millions more, and double the burden of every debtor and burden bearer in the land. If it be said the United States can not act alone, the answer W. conditions are such that she must give notice that she will act with England if the latter contents; otherwise she will art alone. Washington Letter. Tmm car rnroUr Ctm isayeiiasnl. WasHisoTC-jt, Oct. 5.h, 1886. That the regular democratic ticket should be openly opposed by the demo cratic administration is exasperating and aggravating enough to the average dem ocrat, but it is certainly adding insult to . . . ... icjurywhen ft member of the republi - can national committee advertises, by means of ft personal interview in local paper, that the government employee are expected to contribute (50,000 to the McKinley campaign food. Yet that is exactly what has been done. The re publican national coumtte man who baa bad the cheek to d thia thing is Mr MM Parker, of the DUtrict of Co lumbia, who has been in New York since the campaign opened but who has jo-t returned to Washington for the avowed purpose of raising money, and he says he ia going t- remain and devote h.s whole attention to it. He becao opera lions by having bimeeit interviewed.and after etating the argent need for more money be taid : "Tbey have called on us to raise t-V).00Q. We ought to do It. It is not a question of party ; it Is a ques tion of preservation. Icdividuals, banks, trust comptniee and corporations ahoild so consider It. loose in the govern ment service ought to appreciate the sit uation and gratuitously help to pro tect themselves- The national commit tee will be advtsed of all those who aid in this patriotic work." Mark well tbat last sentence. It is intended both as a threat and an Implied reward to the gov ernment employee- If tbey contribute the national committee will know it and will see tbat they keep their places ; if tbey don't contribute, the national com mittee will know it and will - tbat they lose their, places. ' Fortonatei for the government employes, both threat and reward are contingent upon McKinley 'a election. Anyway Parser deserves tbe belt for unadulterated gall. Ex-Gov. Campbell, of Ohio, whose po sition in tbe campaign has been the sub ject of much gossip and more misrepre sentation, stopped long enough in Wash ington, white on his way to Ohio where he will make some speeches, to thor oughly state bis position. He said : "I shall vo'e for Bryan and Sewall, I stand just where I did before the action of the Chicago convention. I aaid at that time I would abide by the decision of tbe ma jority of the delegates to that conven tion, aod, while my personal views were not incorporated in the platform, I am willing to defer tbe judgment of my party. In doing this, I ieel that I am not making any greater sacrifice than Major McKinley did when hi turneu Ids back on his frequent utterances for sil ver and accented a nomination on a pbit form which upholds that for which be so roun llv denounced Mr Cleveland. After carefully viewing the situation it doesn't require a great effort for ma to say I am still a democrat." Senator Blackburn, who was with Mr Brvan in New York, stopped in Wash ingtoo to get a couple ot days rest before again taking tbe stump in Kentucky. He paid Mr Bryan this high compliment. ' know he lacks years, I know he lacks experience and training, but I have been ia one or tbe other houses of congress for 22 jeare continuously, and I regard Mr Bryan as the biggent man lever aw.' Of tbe campaign generally Mr! Blackburn said : "Thia is the people's Bkht, and the political manager must remain In the background. The people are puxhing the silver cause to the front and the insnaige have to go it double qniok to keft-p np with them." Senator Blackburn as not surprised when Sec retary Carlisle declined to divide time with him when he takes the stump In Kentucky. It was just what be and in tet other people had expected tbat Mr Carlisle would do, an1 he did not care to di-eus the matter, a'thouh he signifi cantly remarked : "Carlisle need not think that we will kep our hands off of kirn, if be comes to Kentucky, SENATOR Bffl TILLM, of South Carolina MY.

A man back east was seen with three hundred on his clothes, a row be ing run down each leg. Speaking of the joint discussion be tween Judge McFadden and J. M. Som en the Guard says: "Each fellow thinks he got the best oi the bout." It is now candidly admitted by even Republican papers that heavy damage to wheat in Australia is one of ttie prom inent causes of the rise in the price of wheat. A railroad man well known in Albany writes Irom Nebraska, that that state will give Bryan 26,000 majority. His name is not given for fear it might cost him bis position Last June ft cot t Tillamook countv 127 to have 9000 ballots printed.

Thia ia the bill some people are pretending tor political reasons they want reenacted. As a just measure it does not compare with the Wilton bill.
