in licit uncertainty prevailing about
the fuel connected with tlio mone
tary question, very few ate able to In
tclllgeutly understand the tulJct In
ill proper light, hence the honest yen-
maury of our country are misled from
a proper conception of the great truth
pertaining to the vital Interest of our
poor oppressed countrymen, by the
bankers, rallroud attorneys, brokers
and not a few small fry who are too
Ignorant to understand the truth, or
are expecting some favors at the hamls
of the money sharks of the republican
pany.
High tariff uud the single gold
standard are the watch words of tho re
publican party today. We hold that
the tariff duties should be for revenue
only, and not an unconstitutional
protective tariff. The question of
finance la paramount to all other ques
tlonsaud the only oue that Interests
the American people In this content
aud why? We have been uuder the
single gold standard for twenty-three
yearn, and hard times are with us, the
the country Is dlstraetol, very few
things are marketable at a price above
the cost of production, hundreds of
thousands are out of employment, the
jails, penitentiaries aud Insane any
luius are full, the country Is swarming
wllh the unemployed trump sund
thieves, great strong m.-n driven into
shame and crime for the want of em
playment.
The demonetization of silver In Feb
1873, waa the .Revelry for the Roth
chllds aud the Bhylocks of the world
to rob and enslave the peop'e of our
country. Have they succeeded? Read.
The gold reserve at Washington has
long since gone. The government Is
running at a great loss lu everj depart
ment, a huge debt hangs like au ap
palling cloud over our fair land, taxes
have assumed tho Importance of a
mortgage, riots and strikes prevuil
throughout the laud, the o.-y for high
tariff will no longer decleve the people,
and the money sharks look in vulu foi
an excuse for the failure of prosperity
to return since; the demonetization of
silver. Ah, but they will tell you we
shall have taritr that will bring enough
revenue to keep up the gold reserve,
but it Is a well known fact that the
McKlnley tariff had been In opeiatlou
three years when Cleveland came luto
power, and failed to afford the revenue
necessary to keep up the gold reserve.
The gold was ex haunted and the plates
for printing bonds for a loan were al
ready prepared by the republican
party when Cleveland como into pow
er. No, there will be no change lu the
tariff or fiuanciul policy if McKluley Is
elected. He will pursue the same pol
icy as that pursued by Cleveland and
his ad m I uUt ration. Wall Strtst will
remain In tho saddle aud mock wheu
the peoples fears come aud, laugh at our
calamity.
A popular republican journal says:
"The people who have nothing to lose
generally make the greatest fuss about
their losses in time of Uu&ncia, embar
rassment." This sentenee Is as heart
less as it is false and unjust. It Is the
language of Ignorance or delirious
pride. The people of whom it speaks
must have the means of aubslatauce,
and the loss of that rueani Is something
as vital to them as the loss of millions
of money to the capitalists. It Is their
all. Shall wo be told, that the man
who baa no wealth but that which is
lu his ruusclo, hai nothing to loce?
The coarse garments that cover his
body, the small rented room for which
he must somehow pay the little in
come with which he maintains his
wife and children, all that to be sure
Is not land, is not a splendid mansion,
Is not equipage of lino hones, aud
opulence and iguorance may call It
nothing, aud it may be nothm to
opulence aud ignorance, but it 1 some
thing to humanity, it is every hing to
a man's wife and children. It is a
sacred property, as sacred unquestion
ably as the superb domaliiH of opul
ence, The laboring man's rights should bo
as sacredly guarded by the laws as the
bankers hoarded gold. To begin with,
we would want an administration at
Washington that Is friendly to tho re
publican institutions. The govern
ment should .exercise its pnrogulive
and pay In either metal a of old.
Gold must be given to under und that
it is uot Indisprnsub'e to the cuireiicy
of the country Thi will depreciate
ita Importance. Tin buik-ii of the
great money centres mutt ii given to
understand that they irnw take their
hands off the throat of (In- government
that they cannot diciat.- to the govern,
ment what the people' money shall
be. By the eternal, Ui selfishness of
the few must mid IkiI1 submit to the
Interests of the many. We will then
be able to dictate to other governments
what the I'.iid S ates want, as she
leads the tuitions of the earth to a bi
metalio basis.
The unlimited demand for silver
and Its fret? us- by the government
will IncrcHfc Mm vmIih-. To licit extent
tlje disuse of gold will depreciate Its
value. Yes this double torch shall II-

Istliesume for Koine and Athens."
then there la nothing to be added
nothing to be abridged, It has no need
of commentary. Ud grant that the
American cople may light this double
torch, then we will witness this hap
py epoch. Then tho old political crv
of tariff will I forgotten and the world
will be a world of universal brother
hood. But ah, my follow country
men, will we support Mr Bryan ami
free comuge of silver? Then the farm
ers and ail the producing classes ot our
country will have a revival of prior
ity. '1 his prosperity will te shared by
the railroads and their employees, and
all the yeomanry of the land. Re
member this Is an axiom The laborer
who votes lor McKluley and scarce
money is robbing those depending up
on him and cutting his turn throat.
What is bimetalio money? It is
money found by admitting gold nud
silver both to free coiuage and making
each au unlimited legal tender with a
certain relation lu value to the other.
Under bimetalism the government
docs not purchase any bullion. It
simply coins. Tills coin contains so
many grains of gold and is a dollar.
1 liia coin contains so many grains of
silver and is a dollar. The bullion
brought by the owner is handed
back to him in the shape of coin cer
tificates which he can take into the
markets of the world and buy
what ever the coin will exchange
for.
The free and unlimited coinage of
silver would uirtncr lend to diminish
the disparity in tlie bullion value of
gold aud silver. It would add to the
demand for sliver thereby increasing iu
price, and it would diminish the de
mand for gold, thereby decreasing Its
price, and the two would tend to ap
proach lu value, the rr.tio fixed by law.
Silver and gold retained their il la
tive bullion value at about hi to 1,
from 1GS7 to 1S73, when deinenetizel
by the republican party. It immed
iately separated after the demonetl
ution of silver In 1873. The disparity
iu value now, Is not due toauy fall iu
silver, but is due to a rise of gold in
value. An ounce of silver bo lion to
day will exchange for approximately
as much of every commodity as It did
in liiS, while an ounce or gold today
will approximately exchange for twice
us much or all commodities as It
did in 1H73. But a new standard of
measuring values wits set up. Silver
and gold combined were displaced by
gidd alone. Silver being deprived of
this privihige, tree coinage at the
mints, and used us primary money,
became property of the world, to have
Its value also measured in gold. As
the standard In the measurement In
the countries making this chaugo was
only one-half of what it had been it
meaut the decline hi value or all prop
erty. As the demand for gold becomes
greater it b com 8 more valuable, tin TO-
fore purchase more property. silver
included. Property a'ld silver are (Ij
clining iu price and gold U going up.
It Is common now to read and hear
I he expressions from hired puppets of
Wall Street, that the silver In a silver
dollar Is worth only fifty-two cents
(as tho pipes of some golden org. in
move, the gilded puppets dance).
When we had a doublo standard and
silver waa the unit, such a tiilug as Its
being worth less than a dollar was Im
possible. Until 1873 the primary
money of the world was both gold and
silver, and gold at a pi'.rity. They
were virtually one metal. The rela
tive valuations of property to money
and money to propel ty adjusted them
selves accordingly.
The financial situation of the federal
government is such as to inspire every
patrlo' with glonui and every honest
man with despair. The expenditures
of the government have reached a
scale which It has become apparent is
very far in advance ol the ability ot the
couutry to meet. The fact that these
expenditures being based upon the
value of productive labor Jus measured
by the standard of both gold and sli
ver, but on gold alone, but on a gold
stuiidard alone which is Insidiously
mortgaging every mans house or farm
for $5 when the value of one only is
obtained by the government, it In
sures past any hope of eseae from
national bankruptcy and Individual
ruin.
Now my dear people, let nieask you
who la responsible for this sad condi
tion In which wo find our boasted
land of the free and home of the brave,
aud who shall we hold responsible in
this campaign? The republican parly
it is true, demonetized silver, but who
has reaped the harvest? Has tho re
publican party? No. Has the demo
cratic party? No, but the great mon
eyed aristocracy of t lie United flutes
and England, regardless of parly prin
ciples, have through Niitlom.l banks,
money brokers aud bond speculators
curried the gold across the waters or
locked It up lu the National banks.
Now the republicans have come out
on a platform f r gold and gold alone.
It Is the first time In the history of
this republic that any party dared to
declare for a single standard. The
Oregoulun, with all oilier misrepre
sentations, deo'area that the position of
the republican patty as a National or
ganization, has ulways lieen In favor
of a single gold standard. From the
Oregouiun Dec. 7th, '14: "What is
the position of the republican parly as
a Nutioiml organization on silver?
What has been its position hitherto?
What will be Its position hereuftei?
Dim's any one suppose that it will de
clare for free coinage of silver? That
supposition would be the imagination
of a fori. In all Its National platforms
the republican parly has stood airalnst
free coinage of silver." My Hod what
a falsehood! Further will the repub !
Mean party go wandering after strange
gods? Who does not know that the
republican party has stood alolutelv !
against free coinage of sliver. I dial-;
lenge the Oregoiilan to allow me one
resolution, one plank or one sylable1
from any party prior to the meeting of
those 7H railroad attorneys, 71 brokers, j

she Is trying to do with gold. If
Washington could look down from the

ey king England, would he not come
down uud unsheath his sword again
nud ill, It In the blood of our foes?
It looks as though theie wus a po
litical night npuroitching a leiicd of
American darkness, in which the
people will have to work out again the
great problem of self government aud
popular liberty, which our falhcts
thought alas.that they had solved und
established fotevcr. And it is true
that ( boasted of being the most
free and powerful Nation on the face
or the earth, that we did refer with
pride to our commerce increasing and
swelling like the waves of the sea on
every slime iu tho civilized world.

calamities, ol empires and republics

that so stupendous a structure as our
govern incut wa secure and while we
admire the beauty of the work, pro
nounce upon the "eternity of the pi'e.
But alas there aw ihu pages of history
standing out like a pillow of lire on
the dark buck ground ot ruined repub
lies.
If we cast an eye over the Nations of
F.uroiMj which have Urn overwhelmed
with the most unrelenting desp.ilism,
we shall hardly Hud oue which did
notonoj boast of a constitution ami
freedom.
Spain has had her Cortex; France
her revolutions and republics; Cei-
inany her lndeeiident electors;
Sweedcn and Denmark their senates;
Bohemia, 1'olaml uud Hungary tlioir
franchises. If some of these ure not
forgotten, lost nud swallowed up In
the vortex of despotism and ambition,
it becomes us to lake warning by their
rule ami steer me public vessel far
from a ehore which is ulrtady covered
with wrecks.
While the spirit and manners of the
Roman people remained free from the
dwpotic ambition of the money power,
While iiiiiou and peace reigned and in
all parts ol the common wealth neither
the in .nion of Phyrrsu the victories
of Hut Ibal nor the bloody ci options of
the Hauls have been aide lo shake It on
its firm foundation But all, when t he
spirit of the money faction crept In,
when fanaticism and ambition de
praved the common patriotism, then
It went where thesame inline uces have
burled ao many states, lo a grave from
which theie is no resurrection. Let

take warning In time lo avert the ter
