The financial question was just then at the front iu both brandies of con gress. The senate had before it. sure to pass, the Te.'ler resolution; the house had before it, only not sure to pass, the Gage bill. Without directly allndiny to either, the presi dent clearly set forth the policy of the administration upon both. Not that he committed the administra tion to any particular bill, but he did declare in favor of the actual passage of a bill embodying the line of finance laid down in the St. Louis platform. As to the Teller resolu tion, he hit it squaiely in the face without naming it. Here are the two salient passages of the speech, which exactly fit the two branches of congress : It is not sullicient for citizens now adays to say simply that they are in favor of sound money. That is not enough. The people's purpose must be given the vitality of public law. Better an honest effort with failure than the avoiding ot so plain and commanding a duty. Nothing should ever tempt us nothing ever will tempt u to scale down the sacred debt of the nation through a legal technicality. What ever may be the language of the contract, the United States will dis charge all its obligations in the cur rency recognized as the best through out the civilized world at the times of payment. It is impossible to mistake the meaning of either of these declara tions. Not once did the president mention gold or silver, greenbacks or bank notes, but there is no sugges tion of evasion. On the contrary, it is a bugle call to the forces of sound monej to rally upon the open Geld for an aggressive campaign. It is by no means improbable that the great battle for sound money i to be fought at the eongressionnl polls of this year. It may be re called that the final victor' over fiat ism was won at the congressional election of 187S. That was the one issue of the campaign. From one end of the country to the other, wherever there was a free vote and a fair count, the question was rnone tar Not that every Democrat was for fiat money or eveiy Republican for sound monej-, but it was every where recognized that the Republi can party, as a party, was committed anil that the Greenbackers had con trol of -the Democracy. It is the same way now. Twenty years ago James G. Ulaine was the most elo quent champion of sound money. He made a grand tour of the North west in advocacy of hard .money, as the term then was. No more effect ive series of political speeches was ever made. If William McKinley were free from the burdens of the presidency, he could do for the same cause in 1898 as effective service as Mr. Ulaine did in 1878. From the na ture of the case he cannot go about from place to place discussing the financial question, but if necessary lie can submit to congress a special message covering the ground. The New York speech made no attempt at discussion. It defined the monetae position of the presi dent and called upon tho friends of sound money, in congress and out, to come to the rescue of tho country from the peril of a depreciated and dishonest currency. This appeal should call out responses from both ends of the cnpitol. The senators and representatives in should heed the voice of the presi dent, not only in the their voles, but in their speeches. Lrst spring and summer it was all very well to let the free traders do all the talking. The people understood the matter, and a protective tariff was to be passed; but now there is no little popular misunderstanding, and, what is more, no actual legislation on finance can be expected from this concress. An aggressive campaign for sound money may give us both the hou?n and the senate during the last half of the McKinley administration. Then, and only then, would the mon etary issue be settled, and settled riant. There is no need of little children be iiiR tortured by scald head, eczema and akin eruptions.
