ULTIMATE FREE COINAGE.
The Pacific Kural Press, of San
Francisco, entertains sounl ideas
on the financial question. In dis
cussing the situation, it says.
The Orst thing to be accomplish
ed, in our judgment, is the repeal
of the 1 purchasing clause of the
Sherman law; and, as a part of
the same proceeding, the re affir
mation and re-adoption of the
principle of bi-metallism. We
must quit dissipating our national
resources in the useless effort to
hold up the price of silver bullion;
bat at the same time we roust de
clare it to be the ultimate policy
or the- American government to
employ the two metals gold
silver currently in its coinage.
This, we believe, will restore pub
lic confidence, enable business to
p move. in its accustomed channels,
advance to some extent the prices
of general commodities and put us
in the way of return to substancial
prosperity. We say it will "put us
iu the way of return to substancial
prosperity" because we cannot
agree with those who claim that
this is all that is required; in our
view it is only the first move to
wards bi-metalism. upon which our
national fortunes ultimately rest
We cannot believe that there will
ba a return to really good times
with free markets and good prices,
with justice to producer, seller and
debtor, until silver shall be re
stored to its old rank as a money
metal upon terms of relative
. equality with gold; and such
equality can only be maintained
by free coinage of both metals at
coinage of gold and silver must
bo kept in view; but creeping
comes before walking, and we
must re-establish the value of sil
ver before we can open our mints
to its free and unlimited coinage,
Th9 first step toward the re-estab-
' Ushment of the value of silver
must be the restoration of busi
ness confidence at home; and the
next step must be to bring Eng
land, or the Latin union, or both
into an agreement with us looking
to" the concurrent coinage of gold
and silver upon a fixed ratio.
There is a large body of Ameri
can sentiment, particularly strong
in silver producing districts, which
holds that the United States alone
can, by the easy process of open
ing its mints to the free coinage
of silver, restore to the white metal
its old-time and rightful money
character. With those who thus
believe, it is a favorite remark
that those who hold a different
view are lacking in patriotic spirit;
in other words, that they are
shamefully subservient to Old
World influences in allowing Eng
land to fix the price of silver.
Now, as a matter of fact, we can
no more prevent England fixing
the price of silver than we can
prevent her fixiug the price of
wheat; that is a thing of the world
of commerce wholly beyond regu
lation by American statute. The
United States can, we believe, by
legislative diplomacy backed by
our strength m the commercial
world and by our national resolve
and fortitude, -accomplish all that
is desired for silver; but as matters
-now stand, to open our mints to
free silver coinage would be to cor
rupt our standard of value and
open the floodgates of confusion
and disaster. This is the opinion
of those who are best qualified to
give judgment; and as we view it,
it is iu accord with the common
sense of things.
Senator Quay favors the im
mediate repeal of the purchasing
clause of flie Sherman silver law,
and an early adjournment of the
extra session, but he acknowledges
that he is iu a minority when it
comes to the early adjournment
question. " '
It i a significant fact that no
de nocratie itewspaper nor leading
democratic statesman has attribu
ted the critical condition of - busi
se3)to the operations of the Mc
Kinley tariff. :
SHOULD BE RE-ELECTED.
Among the reasons given by
correspondents of the American
Economist, why McKinley should
be re-elected governor of Ohio, is
the following:
"As the great champion ot pro
tection and friend of the farmers
and laborers of Ametica, he should
be re-elected. By his election the
great principle of protection to
American labor will again be vin
dicated. A year ago, under the
operation of the McKinley Tariff
law, the country was enjoying un
paralleled prosperity, which would
have continued today had the "re
publican party remained in power.
A part of the people blindly and
madly struck for a change; they
have got it, and democratic panic
is substituted for republican pros
perity. McKinley should be re
elected because those grand and
glorious principles of protection so
earnestly advocated by him have
already been partially vindicated
by the blight following the pros
pect of their abandonment. Four
months of democratic uncertainty
has plunged the country into the
deepest depression it has knovu
for twenty years. Financial dis
turbance and ruin are written in
the daily story of disaster all
around us."
In the same paper, on this sub:
ject a correspondent at the Dalies
says:
"I wish that every citizen of
Ohio who is undecided as to how
he shall vote could visit Eastern
Oregon, and especially this cily,
and see five million pounds of wool
stored for want of a market. Tl.e
same clips that sold readily last
year for seventeen cents cannot be
sold this year for ten cents. The
buyers say: Owing, to the unset
tled state of affairs we cannot take
your wool except on a free tariff
basis, which means a price that
will kill the industry in the United
States. A private letter from
Australia says: 'One of the chief
reasons for the bank failures here
is that there are 90,000,000 pounds
of wool being held pending the
adoption of free trade in the Uni
ted States, which is expected to
tuke place as soon as congress
m3ets."'
Senator Dolph says: "Governor
McKinley should ba re-elected
Governor of Ohio because he is
able and honest, has served one
term as governor with great credit
to himself and satisfaction to his
constituents; because he stands for
the fundamental principles of re
publicanism, and is the most bril
liant and distinguished advocate
of the republican doctrine of 'Pro
tection to American Industries and
American Labor.'"
EXTRA SESSION CONVENED.
For the twelfth time in the his
tory of the United States congress
convened at noon on Monday in
extraordinary session, and for the
first time in a third of a century
the democratic party is in control
in all departments. In the senate
a small amount of unimportant
business was transacted when that
body, adjourned in - respect to the
memory of the late Senator Stan
ford. In'the house Mr. Crisp was
elected speaker as prearranged.
Little other business was transac
ted before adjournment. Alter
the Tuesday morning routine the
S3nate took a recess till 12:45 to
await the arrival of the president's
message. On reconvening the
message was read" and referred to
the committee on finance. Sena
tor Dolph gave notice that he
would, after the morning business,
adiess the senate upon the subject
of finance. A large number ol
petitions for and against the repeal
of the Sherman act was presgnted
and referred. The first bill of the
session was introduced by Hill, ol
New York. The substance ot the
title was to repeal certain sections
of the Sherman law. The titles of
two bills introduced by Stewart, ol
Nevada, were "to restore the right
of coinage," and "to supply the
deficiency in currency." On Tues
day the house listened to the read
iiig of the president's message, and
after transacting some preliminary
business adjourned. Already, a
good many warm words have pass
ed between senators and between
members of the house, and the ex
tra session promises to be a lively.
one from the start. There seems
no doubt that -it will extend into
the regular session.
REASONING TOGETHER.
This financial question has done
one good thing for the American
people namely, it has set them
to thinking; and it is making new
lines for the politics of the couutry.
On this question people are takr
iug their stand on the basis of
things present and to come, rather
thrin on the things past. Preju
dice is giving way to judgment;
and for the first time since the
war there is a radical division of
the people on a question of pub
lic policy outside of party lines.
Tais is well, for it gives promise of
a new and, as we regard it, a more
rational and wholesome political
life. Furthermore, popular study
of this currency question is doing
an immense amount of good to
the individual citizen by opening
his mind to new information and
clearing it of preconceived notions:
So recently as two .years ago it
was not possible to discuss the sil
ver question with candor without
giving offense; now the whole
country stands ready to hear with
respect anybody who speaks from
cmvictiou and who can bring new
information or new reflection.
The temper which characterized
the earlier silver discussions, and
male them mere contests of spleen
a id acrimony, has given place to
a receptive pose of the public mind
willing to give heed and respect
to honest differences as well as to
c )incidences of opinion. The pas
sion has gone out of the matter
and the people are soberly and
sensibly reasoning together. And
when the Amancau people put
th'eir whole mine to a project, they
never fail to work it out to a prac
tical and just result. Even where
opinions and interests seemed as
wide apart as the poles, in times
past, harmony and co-operation
have been attained. And in view
of this, who can doubt that in the
present situation, in which as a
people we are practically agreed
as to the end, and in which we dif
fer only as to the means, a way
will be found to yield justice and
satisfaction to everybody. That
either one way or another we shall
get what we all want the con
current and relatively equal money
u?e of gold and silver is beyond
question, for it is a certain out
come of our national earnestness,
common sense and honesty. Ru

If the army of the unemployed
could march on Washington, D.
C, about next week, it would fa
cilitate the business of congress
wonderfully. As this army has
mainly been created by a fear of
what congress will do, it is a pity
that it cannot be present and aid
the party which has expressed
such deep sympathy for "the poor
man's dinner pail." Inter' Ocean.
Indiana democrats carried a ban
ner in 1892, on which was in
scribed "vote for a change and
$1.25 per bushel for wheat."
They got the change and they are
getting thit price for two bushels
of wheat. Great is democracy.

Iii addition to his duty as secre
tary of war and those arising in
connection with his- assisting Mr
Cleveland to boss the democratic
party, Dan. Lamont has a private
job to look out for. The Whitney
street railway syndicate wants a
charter for an electric railroad in
Washington, and Lamont has as
sumed the task of getting it from
congress. It is proposed to build
this road on Massachusetts Ave.,
from one end of the city to -the
other. Massachusetts Ave. is one
of the handsomest rasidence thor
oughfares in Washington, and va
rious altempts to secure charters
for building a street railway there
on have been defeated in congress,
but it remains to be seen what
weight will be given the wishes of
its residents by a democratic con
gress, particularly when those
wishes are opposed by the admin
istration. The board ol lady managers of
the world's fair indulge in some
decidedly unpleasant wrangles.
It has been so since the organiza
tiou of the board, whereas, accor
ding to claims set forth, they
should have set a better example.
At a meeting last Saturday, Mrs.
Ball, of Delaware, secretary of the
cGinniittee on awards, relentlessly
scored Mrs. Meredith, chairman of
the committee, and there was a
great sensation- when the former
characterized the latter as an "ar
rogant, malicious, ungenerous, vin
dictive woman." In her reply
Mrs. M. said Mrs. B. staled what
was false, and finally broke down
and sobbed hysterically.
The events of the past few
months have circumscribed a very
narrow platform upon which free
traders may stand, but they are
enabled to obtain some comfort
from the fact that considerable
gold is now coming over from Eu
rope with which to purchase our
cheap wheat. Wheat-raisers and
industries dependent upon them
maybe thankful this year that
there is a "foreign market," be it
a poor one.
The Best FtffediGsne.
J. O. Wilson, Contractor and
Builder, Sulphur fpririgs, Texas,
thus speaks of Ayer'a Pills:
'" Ayer's Pills are the best medicine I
ever tried; anrf, in my judgment, no
better general remedy conld be devised.
I liaVo used them in my family and
recommended them to my friends and
employes- for more than twenty years.
To my certain knowledge, many cases
of the following complaints' have been
completely and
Permanently Cured
by the nse of Ayer's Pills alone: Third
day chills, dumb ague,, bilious fever,
sick headache, rheumatism,, flux, dys
pepsia, constipation, and hard colds. . I
know that a moderate use. of Ayer's
Pills, continued for a few days or weeks,
as the nature of the complaint required,
would be found an absolute cure foi the
disorders I have named above."
"I have been selling medicine1 for
eight years, and I can safely say that
Ayer's Pills give better satisfaction
; than any other Pill I ever sold." J. J.
