Mr. Alillcr on Silver.
Lebanon, July 31, 1900.
Editou Duuockat:
A great deal of space in the columns of
the Okboohian is devoted to finning fault,
to ridiculing, and even to accusing of in
sanity to the coining of gold and silver at
the ratio of 1G to I
They speak of it as though it waB some
thing utterly impossible and absolutely a
thing never heard of, not even dreamed
about, and one would judge from reading
their editorials that not a Republicau in
all tbis broad land ever adhered to such
a doctrine. Now I will not asa you to
print a history of tiie Republican party
either in the United States or in Oregon
on this question, buts will simply call
their attention to the factthat the latest
coinage law enacted in tbis country waB
by a Republican congress end Blgned by
William McKinley June 13, 1808. Tbe
amendment to the War revenue bill was
offered by Senator Walcott of Colorado,
a'Republican all wool and a yard wide,
authorizing the coinage of not less than
$1,600,000 each month which became a
part of the bill. These dollareaie coined
under this law, a Republican law, at the
ratio of 16 to 1 .
Under this administration there has
bsen coined 00,000,000 of these dollars,
dollars which you call dishonest, flat, etc.
when advocated by a Democrat or Popu
list. During the month of June there
was coined in the mints of the United
States 3,000,000 of these dollars and at
the ratio of 10 to 1. Then why Hub howl
about 10 to I? If it is wrong why did
William McKinley Bign the law author
izing tbe coinage of.not ItsB than 1,500,-
000 of theee dollars per month until all
tbe bullion purchased under tbe Sherman
law is coinedfinto silver dollars at tniB
ratio of 16 to 1 1 II 16 to one is wrong
why has not the PreBident? recommended
a chang of ratio? If 16 to one is wrong
why has not some Republican member
of tbe bouse or of tbe senate introduced
a b'll to change the ratio, which none of
them have done but insteaJ.havo passed
a bill to coin dollars, silver dollars at 16
tol.
16 to 1 is this administrations ratio.
they have never proposed any otb9r ratio
the proof iB conclusive tbiB is the fix
ed and established ratio of this country
and no one wants any other, then why
tbiB clamor? It has been the law of tbe
land for years. Mr. Bryan and bis fol
lowers Democrats, Populists, Free oilver
Republicans, including the. Millers, tbe
Bennetts, the Hares and Die Coopers,
come out boldly and openlv declare for
16 to 1, while McKinley, Uaona, Scott
ana otherB ridicule 16 to 1 and yet order
100,000,000 Bilver bullion coined into
silver dollars at this very ratio,
In the campaign of 1806 tbe Republican
orators and the Republican preeB declar
ed that we could not coin any more oilv
er dollars, that we badmore than a sound
financial policv could Btand, that we
must get rid of scme.of them, that the
very agitation of tho qucatfon of tbe coin
ing of silver dollarB at 16 to 1 was wreck
ing otir financial foundation. Now they
are coining silver dollars to meet the
demands of busii-Oss, paid out 750,000 of
them to the soldiers in Cuba in a single
day, and yet say thoy are a dishonest
dollar. "O, consistency, thou art a
jewel. "
These dollarB are good enough for our
boys who face Spanish bullets and eat
Alger meat, yet thoy are not good enough
for the bond holder.
My God, a party with such a financial
record finding fault with other people.
You will search all the pages of history
in vain lor any thing like it.

Tbe fact that ex-Speaker Red had
been blacklisted by the republicans wi
it is said, given out at Chicago, in order
to break tbe force of a declaration against
present republican principles that Mr.
Reed was about ;to make. Tbis, how
ever, will probably not prevent him from
firirg his Bhot and from making a serious
breach in the republican breastworks
with it.
Probably no one will object to tbe
President's agreement to arbitrate he
tween China and the other powera in
caBe the former accedes to several well
defined conditions. But it seems wortb
while to call attention to bis refusal to
arbitrate for tbe Boers unless the party
of tbe second part ehonld also request
him to do so. Has tbe aforesaid party
requested mediation iq tbis case? We
bare not heard anything to justify the
belief that they bave.
Truth crushed to earth will bave a
good chance to prove its resilient quali
ties when the situation in China cletrs
up.
It is bard to tell just what Li Hung
Chang is up to. He is making almost too
many explanations now-a-days.
It was recently reported from China
that Conger's message had been carried
at the rate of 200 miles a day. It now
turns out, however, that it waB really
carried 600 11b a day. A li is supposed to
be a third of a mile, but perhaps it is as
long as those we are familiar with.
Boston has opened free public baths.
And Boston doeen't need them as badly
as some cities that we might name.g
Bobs has again "regretted to state,' '
ths time only 18 miles from Pretoria.
Yet tbe Boer war, like the Philippine, is
over, even tbougU tbe generals in both
cases are declaring that they can't spare
any of their men and are calling for re
inforcements. The superiority ol man over woman is
clsaily shown by tbe fact that even 8
bald-headed' man can keep Mb hat- on
without using bat pins.
A Mrs, Joy of Chicago, who was a
Miss Schwl.kocewitchski, has sued for
divorce. Bo far aa known, however, she
has not asked for tbe restoration of her
maiden name.1
Mark Hanna bas gotten political pre
diction down fine. He just figures out
bow many stateB be netda and then pro
ceeds to carry them.
The powers will have a dry time of it
in China. They have no laagera tbere.
Is it possible that Bobs permitted his
communications to be cut, so that the
attention of tbe world miiibt be drawn
to the fact tbat he is still on earth. "
Varisiane think that Americans are
somewhat harsh in criticizing their big
show, anil this is no doubt true. It was
not to be expected tbat it would come
up to tbe Chicago Fair.
Even if the democratic party is not
getting them, tbe republicans are losing
a number of distinguished. members tbis
year. Ex-PresidentlHarrieon and f. B.'
Reed are practically out of the G. O. P.,
though their former honors from that
party prevent their openly joining its.
opponents.
Ihe tronble with McKinley is that he
is more anxious to do tbe thing that he
thinks will hlp him politically rather
than the one that is right. This is why
