THE APPROACHISli CAMPAIGN
The campaign of 189G, more than
any during the past thirty years, de
mands of all parties fairness and
fieedom from deception or error.
The financial question has become,
.through the agitation of the com
bined forces of the advocates of a
greater supply of money, the prom
inent issue. It is an issue that must
not be determined by trickery or
fraud,for such a determination would
be a source of danger to the ultimate
prosperity and possibly to the very
existence of the nation. It must be
n educational campaign in the tru
est and highest sense. Oratory of
the sky rocket order vituperation
and appeals to prejudice will, move
some voters, but the intelligent lab
orers and farmers who constitute
ninety per cent of the voters of the
nation will attempt to understand the
effect of free coinage before they
will vote for it, and in this lies the
assurance that this latest proposed
experiment of Democracy will not
be tried. Between now and the No--rember
election the truth, so far as
history and reason can reveal it, can
be and should be found.
It is utterly useless for the advo
cates of free coinage to quote single
passages from the utterances of Lin
coln, Grant, Blaine and others of the
illustrious dead, to support their
claims. The American people know'
the Popocrats and Populists who
quote these statesmen know that
were they able to speak to the Amer
ican people today their advice would
be in the words of McKinley and of
Sherman not in the words of Bryan,
Altgeld and Mrs. Lease. Said Mr.
Blaine Feb. 7, 1878, in the U. S. Sen
ate: "At current rates of silver,
" free coinage of a dollar containing
41 2 grains, worth in gold about 92
cents, gives an illegitimate profit to
the owner of the bullion, enabling
him to take 92 cents worth of it to
the mint and get it stamped as coin
and force his neighbor to take it for
a full dollar. This is an undue and
unfair advantage, which the govern
ment has no right to give co the
owner of silver bullion and which
defrauds the man who is forced to
take the dollar." What would Mr.
Blaine say as to the free coinage of a
dollar w.orth only 53 cents in gold?
"It (the free coinage of silver)
would not make labor easier, the
boars of labor shorter or the pay
better. It would not make farming
less laborious br more profitable. It
would not start a factorj', nor make
a demand for an additional day's
labor. It would create no new oc
cupations. It would add nothing to
the comfort of the masses, the cap
ital of the people or the wealth of
the nation."
These utterances from McKinley's
letter ot acceptance cannot be re
futed. Talk about the lap of indo
lence and the brow of labor sounds
well in a stump speech; they are,
however, nothing but appeals to
prejudice ami their use is an attempt
to influence men, not by reason, but
by hatred. McKinley is no "boy
orator." lie speaks forth "the words
of truth and soberness."
The peicentage of silver coinage
has been increasing ever since 1873.
In 1872 we coined $21,812,645 of
gold and $2,504,488.50 of silver; in
1890 we coined $20,407,182.50 of
gold and $39,202,908.20 of silver;
in 1872 the coinage of gold was near
ly ten times that of silver; in 1890
the coinage of silver was nearly one
and a half times that of gold. Will
the silverites if they come, into
power, ever treat gold as well as the
gold bugs have treated silver?
The Dalles has recently felt the ef
fect of a good example in the matter
of sidewalks. The appearance of
the principal business portion of
town has been improved 100 per
cent during the past three weeks by
the construction of cement sidewalks.
Times are hard but The Dalles is
growing and rapidly improving in
appearance even under the regime of
a gold standard.
Mr. Bryan said at Syracuse yestei
day: "We want enough standard
money to keep pace with the demand
for money and increase of popula
tion." He knows, if he knows any
thing about the money question, that
under the gold standard of the last
forty or more years the per capita
circulation of standard money has
been steadily increasing.
Mr. Biyan asks: "Is there a man
who believes the age of oratory is
gone?" Taking Bryan's idea of or
atory, such a man has been beyond
the. reach of newspapers since the
Chicago convention was called to or
der, and must live where tkere are no
Populists.
Redaction in Railroad Fare.
As there will be numerous requests
for reduced rates on account oE political
meetings daring the coming contest, it
has been decided thai in order to treat
all parties alike, a one fare rate will be
made by the O. R. & JJ. Co. lor various
meetings of this character.
This of course is intended only for oc
casions where there ia sufficient number
to justify a redaction ia rates.' This is
done so that there wil' be no partiality
in favor of any one party.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science baa
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive care known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a consti
tutional treatment. Ball's Catarrh
Care is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the foun
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength .by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of
testimonials. Address :
