FIGURES WORTH REMEMBERING
The Populist speakers who are
canvassing the state are represented
to be nen of ability. If they are
not misrepresented, the inevitable
conclusion is that they are either too
prejudiced or too dishonest to be
able to state facts.
Among the other many reasons
urged why the Populists should be
placed in power, is that the Republi
can party in 1873 demonetized sil
ver, thereby taking from the people
a large portion of the circulating
medium; that money is to tae body
politic what blood is tc the physical
body, and the diminution of this
circulating medium this means Of
carrying to the decaying tissues new
strength is the caase of our hard
times.
When, by . the act of 1873, the
gold dollar wa9 made the standard
of value, the silver dollar was not a
legal tendei, except for $5. By the
act of congress, which" passed Febru
ary 12th and became a law February
28, 1878,' the. silver dollar is de
clared to be a legal tender for all
debts and dues, public and private,
except where otherwise expressly
stipulated in the contract.
Prior to 1873 the entire coinage of
silver, from the foundation ' of the
government, was 144,000,000. Since
and including 1873, the government
001 TICKET
has. coined $537,000,000 in silver
The following shows the amounts
of gold and silver -coined in the
years 1870, 1880 and 1890, these
being fair averages during the period
covering that twenty years :
GOLD. - SILVER.
1870 $21,812,645.00 $ 2.504,488.50
1880 62.303 279 00 27,411,693.75
1890 .. . 20,467,182.50 39,202.008 20
The following shows the gold and
silver in circulation and in the treas
ury at different periods commencing
with the year 1872 :
GOLD. SILVER.
1872 $ 25,000,000 (incld silver)

1890 .-. 695,563,029 380,083,304
1895 636,256.023 547,777,049
The following shows the amount
of gold and silver in the treasury at
periods commencing with 1880.
There was practically no coin in the
treasury in 1872 :
' GOLD. SILVER.
1880..... $126,145,427 $ 49,549,851
1890 ... 321,304,106 323,804,555
1895... 156,618,062 547,777.049
Money in United States per capita
at different periods, commencing
with 1872; : ' .
1S72 $18.19
1880 19 41
1890 22 82
1895 22.97
Silver coin, bullion and silver cer
tificates in treasury January, 1896,
$512,000,000, and at the same time
the silver and silver certificates in
circulation was $107,000,000.
These figures have been prepared
from government statistics and are
undoubtedly correct. A careful
study of them is a sufficient answer
to Populistic theories and doctrines,
and we present them for the consid
eration of those who were misled by
the recent address of Mr. Phelps of
Colorado.
Our tioub.'e seems to be too much
silver in the treasury and a disposi
tion on the part of the people to take
the gold out. If the Populists were
placed in power, possibly there
would be no troub.e at all from too
much money in the treasury, and
they could get rid of the accumu
lated silver as successfully as the
Democrats have gotten away with
gold. "
No better nomination was ever
made at a Wasco county convention
than that of Hon. Robert Mays,
whom the Republicans have named
for county judge. He is in every
way the best man who could be
chosen for this important office.
His business ability is of a high or
der, and under his administration,
the taxpayers would receive their
needed relief. If Robert Mays is
elected judge, the county debt will
be reductd and the burden of taxa
tion mride lighter.: -
. A vote for Sheriff Driver and
Clerk Kelsay is a vote .for honest,
competent officials, under whose ad
ministration, the interests of the tax
payers are guarded. It. is only com
mon justice to give them the in
dorsement of re-election.
