glaily democrat I'AMI'HKI.I. SC'OKES TIIKSI. For some iime Sherman and McKinlev have be.n making speeches In Ohio fie 'e ly attacking Campbell on the silver que. lion, Campbell has been tick and could not reply, but he has so far recovered as to make a speech at Sidney wheie :o,ooo people gathered' to hear hlin. Referring to silver, and McKlnlcv'6 record on the silver question, he said: "In his opening 6peech Major XlcK'nley plays a number of varlaMons In a high key upon the dishonest dollar,' the 'shoddy dollar, the 'short dollar' and the 'eighty cent dollar.' He then touches a minor key, and proceeds o bewail the s.id condir'on ol the poor old soldier, whose lit-'.e stipend of $12 per mnnlh will, he predict shrink to $9.60 should we enter upon the f ee coin age of silver. "Now is the lime and this the place to respectively fnquiie of the dear old so'dier why upon the 5th dayof November, in I lie year of our Lord 1S77, as pajfc 241 of the Congrcssiiqtal Kccortl discloses, he not only voted for the free and unlimited coinage of silver, but so page was he to pay oft the old 6oldier in 'eigh'y-cent dollars' that he actually voted to suspend I he rules In order that not one moment might le lost in the infliction of this 'great oulrpge,' rs he now terms it upon helplcs pensioners. "Evidently Mr McKinlev had foroUen his first love silver during the last cam paigner on October 27, iSyo,h addressed a letter to the Stark County Fai mers Alli ance, wherein he wrote: " 'I would honor gold and silver alike.' V hat does that mean? Especially in the light of the Major's long-time devotion to silver? Can two metals be honored alike, when an unlimi.ed amount of one of them may be taken to the mint for coin while the othei one is not coined, and but a lim ited amount stored as p'g metal in the vaults of the treasury? The truth is thut In Ohio (notwithstanding the declaration in their platform) and everywhere else, e specially in the central and western states, the republican party is seriously divided upon the free coinage of silver. In the United States Senate the vote on that question stood sixteen republicans for free silver and twenty-six against it. The re publican conventions in many states, be ginning with Indiana and moving west ward, have declared in favor of it. Doubt less, also, the democratic parV is equally divided. There fs an honest difference of opinion concerning the time and manner in which silver can be restored to the place in our colnag which it occupied prior to its stealthy demonetization. "But the entire democracy desire to see this done with honesty, and as speedily as existing conditions will permit. We do not intend that this subject shall go undebated, neither d.i we Intend that our enemies shall divert us from the decisive issue of the tariff. The Ohio democracy proposes to defend bi metalinn, which is the right of both metals to unlimited coinage. Al though we may differ among ourselves as to means of reaching such coinage, we most empha'.icilly do not believe in the doctrines enunciated by the Ohio republi can platform, which indorses the amended Coinage Act of the last republican con gress. Under this law paper certificates are issued, no silver will be coined save in the event of the redemption of such certiti cates. The law is designed to stop the coinage of silver. These certificates are practically warehouse receipts for so much bullion, and are based upon its daily fluc tuations in the market. If any dollar could be more thoroughly a shoddv dollar than these pig metal paper certificate dollars it would be dilficult to describe. 'There is no good reason why the gov ernment should nut store pig lead or pig iron cs well as pig silver, and Issue circu lating notes upon them The next step in logical sequence, if ynu follow out the re publican theory, would hi to store wheat, corn and oats in government elevators and issue currency on them. This is the Alli ance idea, which the republicans inconsist ently denounce as visionary. The issu of certificates, which are receipts for articles of . vl-andise returnable on demand, is not a function of tne government, whose power Is limited by the constitution to the coining of money. It is mere pawn brok ing. Printed tickets or certificates might as well be 'ssued upon the temporary de posits of watches, jewelry, or second-hand clothes. Under this new system of finan ciering the Mint at Philadelphia should be abandoned and the symbolical sign of three golden balls hung over the entrance of the treasury at Washington." Of Sherman he said: "Scna'or Sherman has always been a prophet of evil In regard to silver. For many years whenever silver has been mentioned he has played the role of Cas sandra with unvarying regular i'.y. It Is true that none of his evil prophesies have ever came to pass, but he continues to indulge in them with undaunted spirit. He aided to demonetize silver when It was more Taluable in Its ratio than gold. As secre tary of the treasury lie appeared before the committee having In charge the Coin age Act of 1S78. and predicted dire disas ter should it pass. It did pass, however, and after thirteen years of conilnuous sil ver coinage under its provisions, amount ing to over four hundred millions of dol. ars.nor.eof these ev.l results have occurred, and Senator Sht rni.rn himself voted last year for an act to lake the place of the law of iI;;S, whereby the Issue of currency on silver biilll.in i rni'.re tiiau doubled. "In 1SS5, when an unsuccessful attempt was made to di continue the coinage. of silver dollars. Senator Sherman again un loaded a stock of lugubrious predictions which turned out to be false. "Who defends demonetization of silver? Every man connected with It, except Sen. ator Sherman, denies having knowledge of it at the lime. The Senator leaves it to be inferred in his Paulding speech that it was done after full debate.yet he must know that Garfield, Allison, T hurman,Vcorhees, Blaine, Conkling, Howe, Cannon, fleck, and scores besides, have repeatedly denied any knowledge thai the bill demonetized silver. He must be awure that no person asked for it; and ihnt the people were not cognizant of it until resumption took place; silver became cheaper In comparison with gold.and gold only throngh this act and by reason of other hostile legislation and un friendly treaUcs."
