AdLess # HUDSON MEDIO^L Party Leader« Very Much at Sea a« to What Should and Could Be Done—To Still Bamboozle the People on the Ques tion of Finance. [Special Correspondence.] W ashington , Dec. 2.—By the time B majority of the congressmen reached the city it was plain that there had been Considerable change of sentiment, sev eral changes indeed. The silver Demo crats seem to have divided down the middle. One-half are now outspoken and savage against Cleveland, while the other half reluctantly concede that sil ver is beaten for the present, and that the country must continue as now till further misfortune drives the people to a better mind. The Republicans are not half so frantic about Hawaii as they once thought they were. Eighteen months ago they thought themselves unanimous and zealous for annexation, but they have evidently taken the sober second thought. Some few have been there and may have talked with those who have been there and read up on the island, and the general voice of those with whom I have talked may be sum med up thus: Hawaii cannot become an integral part of the republic for very many years. It must long be virtually a colony, a very remote dependency, with all the difficulties of government resulting from such a condition. The white people there are not quite as much in the minority as they are on the Caro lina sea islands, but the various colored races are much harder to govern than the negroes, and, what is worse, the in dications are that other races will out grow the whites in numbers. The popu lation will be a compound of Kanaka, Jap and Chinaman, with smaller infu sions of Malays, Portugese and “South Spainers, ” and the whites will almost certainly degenerate by association. An nexation will involve us in foreign com plications as Alaska has constantly done, though it is not so remote and not detached from the continent. Hence, say these Republicans, we must give our mdhal support to the present govern ment and stop there. As to the needed revenue there seems to be a pretty nearly equal division be tween radicals and conservatives, and when that happens in the Republican party the radicals generally prevail in the end. They say, “Revise the tariff on Republican principles, protecting wool, lumber and agricultural products generally and providing for a sufficient revenue, send the bill to Cleveland, and if he vetoes it leave him to his own de vices. It is no part of our business to pull a Democratic administration out of the hole it has got itself into.” The weakness of the conservatives lies in the fact that they concede the necessity of changing the tariff a little, and every body knows that when the matter is once opened there will be a fight all along the line. Of course the Democrats all say that the Republicans cannot avoid reopening the tariff question, and many of them add that the old southern question will be fought over with addi tional bitterness. I am sure there is abundant material, and in view of re cent constitutional enactments in the south, the Republicans must now face this very elementary question, Shall we allow those states to disfranchise the negro by state constitutions, and thus admit that the negro ought to be dis franchised and that our reconstruction policy was radically unsound, or 6ball we make a fight on the basis of the four teenth and fifteenth amendments? From the standpoint of an outsider I don’t see how the Republicans can avoid raising the issue. The radical scheme of coercing the president into signing a bill he does not approve by cutting off his supplies has been attempted several times in this country, and has invariably been con demned by the people. Precisely the same arguments have been made every time by both sides, the one quoting the British system of withholding supplies until a redress of grievances is secured, the other pointing out that such a prac tice has no place under our written con stitution, but that the first duty of con gress is to make the needed appropria tions. The latest, and perhaps most interest ing struggle, was that which a Demo cratic congress had with President Hayes, and it is refreshing just now to read the gloriously patriotio speeches then made by the Republicans. The whole party in and out of congress join ed in a yell of indignation, declaring that “this is treason and nothing less,” “these fellows couldn’t shoot the gov ernment to death, and so they are try ing to starve it to death, ” etc. James G. Blaine, as I Jieard Ingersoll say at Cincinnati, “likea plumed kpight flung his shining lance against the brazen front of treason,” or something like that, and the Democrats were scared into a backdown. If the Republicans now try the old plan. It will add but one more to the very brilliant proofs of how easily that party can reverse itself. Everybody knowB that the finances are to be overhauled in long debate, if not reconstructed by law; that Cleve land is more determined than ever to re tire the greenback and silver certificate and hand over the money function of government to the banks, and that the bankers are here with a more powerful lobby and more arrogant and exacting than ever. It is something of a surpriee to me to learn tha£ their way ie not to be much if any smoother than it was in the Fifty-third congress, but that is what many Republicans tell me. In fact, a decided majority of the Repub licans from the central west—and they are the ones whose views I hear most of —say that it won’t do at all to retire the greenbacks. Many are opposed to it on principle, and the others are afraid to do it on the eve of a presidential election. It is evident that the silver men in both parties have been stunned, and though a few talk bravely the many shake their heads and look sad. Meanwhile the gold continues to flow to England, over $¥,000,000 in one week, because the prices of what v»« ex port are so very low that all the surplus will not pay the $250,000,000, or there abouts, of annual interest and dividends on investments which we must pay the old world, and as the gold goes out confi dence declines, and prices go lower, and it takes more stuff to pay a dollar, and hence more gold and still more must be sent. Was there ever in all the annals of time a nation of intelligent people which allowed itself to be euchred into such a ridiculous and humiliating position? Here is the vicious circle: The gold ba sis forced down the prices of our agri cultural exports until they failed to pay the annual debt and gold went to pay the remainder; the export of gold re duced prices some 10 per cent more, and no it took 10 per cent more stuff to pay a dollar’s interest ; the export that was once ample is only half enough at half prices, and so more gold has to go, which again reduces prices, and so on —how long? On tbe day I write prices of farm produce in New York city stand thus; Wheat, 67 cents; corn, 86 cents; oats, 23 cents, and most other things in like proportion. Making the deduction of 18 cents as the average cost of trans portation from the grain growing west, we find that the farmer is getting for wheat 49 cents, for corn 18 cents, for oats 5 cents ( ?) and so on. Private let ters from the Wabash valley tell me that the hogs are dying of cholera fast enough to insure at an early day anoth er hog famine, which, according to the “overproduction” theory, ought to send them up in price, while, in fact, they are going down. Averaging the three principal grains and the three leading live stocks, horses, hogs and cattle, it now takes in the Wabash valley 2 2-5 times as much farm property to pay a bond as it did in 1872. And yet tho same private letters tell me that the people are devoutly praying that no body may be allowed to “monkey with the finances” or “curse the country with 50 cent dollars.” Well, if people like that sort of thing, they ought to have it, and I reckon they do like it or they certainly would not vote fof it. The patient being in this low state, the doctors just now in charge propose to give him another dose of protective tariff. Now I trust I am not hopeless ly prejudiced, and as Congressman Wal ker said in his famous speech, “I am not the stupidest man in the world either,” but I should like for some smart man to explain to me how any tariff the wit of man can devise can help American farm ers and laborers, outside of a very few trades, when we owe the old world $5,000,000,000, and must pay something like $250,000,000 per year on it without reducing the principal, and do it with farm produce at prices only half what they were when the debt was contract ed. It can’t be done. I lay it down as a broad proposition—in fact, it requires no argument, for it is a very simple matter of arithmetic that the wisest body of men ever got together cannot devise a tariff which will raise the price of what we sell abroad, and that eo long as prices are held down to a gold basis no human wisdom can improve the pro ducer’s condition by tariffs. Twelve great nations have joined in demonetiz ing silver, and by so doing they have made England a present of $400,000,000 —that is, they have added more than one-third to the purchasing power of the $12,000,000,000 which the world owes her. Some 20 years ago tbe $600,000,- 000, which, according to Mr. Goschen and Mr. Gladstone, the world must pay to England every year in interest, could have been paid with 450,000,000 bush els of wheat in the port of New York. Today it will take 895,000,000 bushels. In short, on today’s New York prices the annual interest due England will feed all the people in the United King dom, fatten all their meat stock and feed all their work stock and leave grain enough to make 17 gallons of whisky for every person in the kingdom. And yet there are men in congress who pre tend to believe that England can be in duced to consent to bimetallism ! Who ever heard of an Englishman giving up a good thing unless compelled to? Another set of doctors, with Cleve land at the head, say that there is too much paper money for the government to carry, but that the bankers by the help of government can carry a great deal more—an idiotic proposition if there ever was one. Last of all comes the director of the mint, who tells us there is soon to be a great inflation of gold which will outdo all that Califor nia and Australia combined did. He rejoices greatly over the fact, or alleged fact, that our own product has increas ed by $20,000,000, which is perhaps 30 cents for each person in this country or cents for each person in the civiliz ed and international trading world, per haps one-fourth or one-fifth as much as is annually consumed in the arts.

A dispatch from Washington says that Senator Harris, the chairman of the executive committee of eix, appointed at the Washington conference last August, to organize for the campaign of 1896 the free silver Democrats of the country, has sent a letter to his colleagues, the chief feature of which is the following : “In tbe light of recent election re sults, theio is, in my opinion, no hope of Democratic succès? in 1896 unless we can succeed in ko organizing the bi metallic Democrats as to secure in the national convention a plain, distinct and unmistakable declaration in favor of the free and unlimited coinage of both sil ver and gold without regard to the financial policies of any country, and therefore it appears to me that we should redouble our efforts to secure such or ganization. ” Senator Harris’ colleagues are Senator Jones of Arkansas, Senator Turpie of Indiana, Governor Stone of Missouri, Hon.

There are enough people in the United States opposed to the single gold stand ard to elect a president, vice president and a congress, besides governors and legislators in two-thirds of the states. But you say to the free silver Democrat or Republican, “Come into the People’s Party,” and he draws back and replies: “No I don’t believe in government ownership of railroads and other mat ters which you cling to. You are too radical. If I tried to move my followers into your camp, half of them would de sert at the gate and go over to the ene my. But why not let the Populists give up part of their platform and come into our camp?” * To which the Populist replies: “That cannot be. We are for free sil ver, but there are other things which we regard as of greater importance than even the silver question. If we tried to move into your camp, two-thirds of our men would leave us and go back to the old parties. ” Plutocracy listens to this dispute and grins with delight. It chuckles and says: “They never can unite. We will beat them in detail and plunder them at out leisure. ” Now let us make a suggestion: The Populists will, as a matter of course, hold a national convention next year, and they will undoubtedly sub stantially reaffirm the Omaha platform, omitting, perhaps, the subtreasury scheme. On the same day, at the same place, let there be another convention held made up of parties not Populists, but friends of free silver, and who refuse to affiliate'with either of the two old par ties. Let them adopt a platform as broad or as narrow as they please. The probabilities are that there will be little difference, when they come to discuss the several issues before the people, be tween their principles and the Omaha platform. Pride of opinion has much to do with these things. Then let each convention appoint a committee of con ference and see if the Populists and the free silverites cannot agree upon the same candidates for president and vice president. If this is done, both sides will then support the same electoral ticket in tho several states without the slightest sacrifice of principle on either side, and we will sweep the coun try ! Suppose one of these reform conven tions puts forth a demand for the initia tive and referendum? Suppose both do? What then? All men, of the most di versified views, could thus unite to elect a reform president and congress, govern ors and state legislatures. Then when ever any of our more advanced or more radical friends think the time is ripo to submit their particular policy to the people they can “initiate” it and have it “referred” to a popular vote, and if the voters have been sufficiently educat ed to support tlieir view, then their es pecial reform will triumph. Under the theory of a republic whatever tbe ma jority think right is tight aud whatever it thinks wrong is practically wrong, for the time being, although it may be theoretically right. No man is fool enough to demand that his pct ideas shall be established by a minority; for the question would then arise, What shall that minority consist of—49 per cent, or 25 per cent, or 1 per cent? Hence all these separate bands of re formers can unite in one grand move ment to redeem tbp nation.—Ignatius Donnelly in The Representative.
