NOT AN IDLE THREAT.
Our Popocratic cotemporary , re
fers to the statement of & prominent
sheepman of this count', recently
made, that he will raise no sheep
next year If Bryan is elected, as an
'idle threat," and proceeds to in
quire : "If capital is drawn out of
active employment by the election of
Bryan, where will it go to? Will it
seek investment in other countries
where profits are less, or will it be
locked up in safe deposits for the
next four years, there to lie idle and
earn its owner nothing?''
This question has been frequently
presented, but we have not-before
known as intelligent an authority as
the Mountaineer to consider it worth
asking. Bryan asks it-over and over
again, but he does it to fool people
who give the subject no thought.
The particular capital of our par
ticular sheepman will not go out of the
country, unless perchance all or a por
tion of the capital he has been using
belongs to someone in Europe, as is
the case with some of the capital
used in Wasco county by sheepmen.
If it is owned in Europe, it will be
recalled and will not again be em
ployed here to give employment to
labor. If he owns all the capital in
vested, not the usual case with men
engaged in any larse industry, this
particular capital will not go out of
the country nor lie idle ; but may be
used elsewhere to fill the place of
other capital, which will certainly go
out of the country. There is today
a considerable amount of capital used
in Wasco county which is owned in
Europe, not by corporations or banks,
but by individuals. This will cer
tainly be called home. The Oregon
Mortgage Company, the Northern
Counties Investment Trust, and per
haps a dozen other money, lending
corporations, also have money loaned
in this and adjoining counties.
These loans will be withdrawn as soon
as practicable. The withdrawal of
this and other capital for the same
condition exists in all the states west
. of the Mississippi will cause a scar
city of money with which to carry on
; the business in which it was invested ;
the rates of interest will increase, and
the capital now used in Wasco county
by this sheepman will find employ
ment elsewhere, or in some other line
of business which can pay a rate of
interest higher than the profits of
sheep raising.
But, says the Bryen'man, the bor
rower of this foreign capital can
. borrow the silver that is to be coined.
The silver is not now coined, and
enough to fill the place of this foreign
capital could not be in time to aid this
industry. The rate of interest will
not fall, but is more likely to rise;
silver will be depreciated, -as most
men, even among the silverites, ad-
vmit, and a man will have to pay ten
per cent for money less valnable
than the gold he is now using. Nei
ther farming nor sheep raising will
warrant it. , .
The result, as we view it, will be a
contraction in business; a lessening
of business enterprises, and conse
quently a diminution in demand-for
labor. ' Y- -. -.' -
the issue ot slavery was dispbsed of,
finds an opponent in Wm. J. Bryan.
He teeks to conceal this opposition
under a new issue or what he claims
is a new issue. As a matter of fact
it is tbe same issue as that which the
American people voted down, by an
overwhelming majority in 1868. At
that time the declaration, of the
Democrats was: "Where the obliga
tions of the government da not ex
pressly state upon their face, or the
law under which they were issued
does not provide that they shall be
paid in coin, they ought, in right
and in justice, to be paid in-thie Law-
rvt money of the United-States.
One currency for the government
and the people, the laborer and the
office holder, the pensioner and the
soldier, the producer and the bond
holder." The same arguments were
then made for a - depreciated cur
rency ; the same attempts were then
made to excite the prejudices of the
people -against capital arid capitalists;
the same denunciation of men who
have saved a competence from a life
of active labor, and who have their
savings invested in securities ; the
same senseless harangue about "Brit
ish gold," as are now being- made by
Bryan. The same arguments were
then used, although there - was no
"crime of 1873" to point to and use
as a scapegoat. The Republicans
denounced repudiation then, as it has
now, and carried the election by s
majority of 111 in the electoral col
lege and a large popular majority,
just as it will in 189C.
THE CELEBRATED
ANHEUSER-BUSCH and
HOP GOLD. BEER
Every principle that Republicans
have worked and fought for since
Popocrats will get small consola
tion from the position of Hoke Smith.
Before the Chicago convention he
denourced the free coinage of silver,
and in a speech at Dalton, Ga., Sat
urday he declared that his financial
views were unchanged. He will
probably not be invited by Chair
man Jones to take the stump outside
his own state. . -Y
The removal of the loose rocks
upon ttre mam streets or our city
would be highly appreciated by every
bicyclist and every other person who
uses the streets. A few days of hobo
labor, properly directed, would do
the business, and our street com mis
sioner would thereby confer a great
favor upon a long-time and badly
jolted community.
If gold goes to , a premium of
twenty per cent,- every man who
borrows to meet obligations made
under a gold standard will have to
borrow $120 for every $100 he has
to pay. In other words, he will, in
effect, be paying- twelve per cent for
Capital to meet his obligations made
under the gold standard. " ;' .
