Kills of Contraction The Concentration of Wealth Rise ami Fall of Gold The Effect of the Free Coinaice of Silver. What Gold Monometallism Stands For. An Uonest Fayment of Debts The Help Offered by the Ballot. A By JOHN H. BEADLE. The accompanying illustra tions are from New York newspapers of recent date. They are published to show the popular idea of the per sonality of the American far mer in the gold stronghold of the country. Th"e Gold Superstition. "How can there bo a gold superstition? What do you niean by such a phrase?" I mean just what tho words imply that a large portion of tho humnn race has become pos sessed with the notion that gold is infalliblo, a notion as degrad ing in its way as the African snake worship. Nine-tenths of the gold mono metallists in this country boldly proclaim that, while all other com modi ties change in valuo, gold does not "We know," the savaaos say. "that Mum bo Commercial Advertiser. Jumbo is ugly and we believe that he is great" We laugh at tho poor hea then, but the argument is on their side, for it nevor has been mathematically proved, and it cannot bo proved, that Mumbo Jumbo has not great power in tho unseen ; but it has repeatedly been proved in every way open to tho human intellect that gold is a shifting and un stable standard of value, far more un stable than silver, and that twice with in the memory of men not very old it has changed in valno so suddenly as to Vitiate all long time contraots and dis locate all industrial conditions. The Fact About Gold. Every economist worthy of the name had said again and again that gold fluc tuates in value. No economic writer has ever denied it In his "Wealth of Nations" Adam Smith says: "Gold and silver, like every other commodity, vary in their value. Tho discovery of the nbundant mines of America reduced in the fifteenth century tho value of gold and silver in Eu rope to about a third, of what it had been befere: This revolution in their valuo, though perhaps the greatest, is by no means tho only ono of which his tory gives some account" Professor Jevons, in his work urxm "Money and Puck. the Mechanism of Ex change," chapter 6, says, "Inrespeotto steadiness of value the metals are prob ably less satisfactory, regarded as a standard of value, than many other com modities, such as corn." By "corn" Professor Jevons means wheat and all other cereals. Ricardo, in his paper on tho "High Bullion," says, "If wodimin h the quantity of currency, wo give o additional value to it" By "currency" Ricardo meant money of every character, inoluding gold. u . Macleod. in his able work on the 'Elements of Banking," Bays, "The 7M It - 1 f ( II t Ts s)Tjl 1 fl -.. OAJBTOHX.9L. linn. StBJs K -ta N. Y. World. ill the qurr.-ifif.'cs nf the precious uiotnls ha ma terially nlten-d their valuo vt difttrent period of history." Professor Fran cis A. Walker of tho Massachu setts Institute of Technology, in his ablo work on monoy, cays: "Gold and Mlvor do over long pe riods undergo great changes of valuo and become in a high degree deoeptivo as a measure of tho obliga tion of tho debtor, of tho claim of the creditor. Thus Professor Jevons esti mates that tho valuo of gold foil between 1789 and 1809 40 per cent, and from 1809 to 1849 it rose 145 per cent" When Gold Was Cheap. It is a point well worth noting, how ever, that in the seven or eight years 1849-50 that gold, according to tho best authorities, lost 25 per cent of its value, the world accommodated itself very easily to tho change. The only outcry was from tho holders of fixed in debtedness, and they wanted to demone tize gold becaupo it was too cheap. We heard very little about that in this country and the masses of our people did not oven know it, because wo had then no permanent creditor class, no great bondholders ; but tho literature of Europe at tho timo was full of com plaints, AND AUSTRIA, GERMANY AND BELGIUM ACTUALLY DE MONETIZED GOLD. On tho other liuuu, tlio rapid increase in tho valuo of gold with in tho last 20 years has wrought worldwide bank ruptcy, lias brought a wail of distress from producers in all lauds, hns again and again shaken the very foundations of credit throughout tho British empire, and right now, according to Dr. Eduard Suess, threatens a redivision of the earth. In short contraction is very many times more destructive than inflation. "But tho monomotallists deny that there has been any contraction, or that gold cheapened in 1849-50, or that it has really appreciated in value since 1870." Oh, yes, they'll deny anything now. Macaulay has well said that if a prop erty interest were affected by it thou sands of intelligent men would deny tho law of gravitation. Only a few years ago somo of the greatest scholars in this country denied that a man whoso skin was black and his hair woolly had a nat ural right to tho fruits of his labor or that a married woman had a right to her own earnings.

Adopted by the Democrats In National Convention. The following i? the full and com plete platform as adopted by the National Democratic conventien: We. the Democrats of tlm rinltpd States in national convention assemb led, do reatlirm our allegiance to those great essential principles of Justice una iiueny upon wnicii our institu tions are founded, and which the Democratic rtartv has ndvoruitwl fmin Jefferson's time to our own freedom of speech, freedom of the press, free dom of conscience, the preservation of personnl rights, the equality of all citizens before the law, and the faith- iui ooservance or constitutional limi tations. During all these years tho Demo cratic party has resisted the tendency of selfish interests to the centraliz ation of governmental power, and steadfastly maintained the Integrity of tho dual scheme of covernment established by the founders of this republic ot republics. Under Its guidance and teachings the great principle of local self-government has round its best expression in the main tenance of the rmhts of the states and In its assertion of the necessity of confining the general government 10 tno exercise or powers granted by the constitution of the United States. RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. The constitution of tho United States guarantees to every citizen tho riguts or civil ana religious liberty. The democratic party has always been the exponent of political liberty and religious freedom and it renews its obligations and rcafirms its devotion to these fundamental principles of the constitution. FINANCE. Recognizing that tho money ques tion Is paramount to all others at this time, we Invito attention to tho fact that the constitution names silver and gold togotliorao tho-moiicy mctult of the United States, and that tho first coinage law passed by congress under the constitution made the sil ver dollar the money unit, and ad mitted gold to free coinage at a ratio based upon the silver dollar unit. We declare that the act of 1873 de monetizing silver without tho knowl edge or approval of the American peo ple has resulted In the appreciation of gold, and n corresponding fall in the price of commodities produced by the peeple; a heavy Increase In tho burden of taxation and of all debts, public and private; the enrichment of the money lending class at homo and abroad, the prostration of Indnstry, and Impoverishment of tho people. We are unalterably opposed to mon ometallic), which has locked fast the prosperity of an industrial people In paralysis of hard times, Gold mono metallism is a British policy, and Its adoption has brought other nations into financial servitude to London. It is not only un-American, but antl Amcrican, and it can be fastened on the United States only by the stifling of that spirit and love of liberty which proclaimed our political Inde pendence In 1770 and won In the war of the revolution. FREE COINAGE. Wo demand the free and unlimited coinage of both sliver and gold at the present legal ratio of 10 to 1, without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation. We demand that the standard silver dollar shall be a full legal tender, equally with gold, for all debts, public and private, and we favor such lpglslutlon as will prevent for the future the demonetization of any kind of legal tender money by private contract. DONDS. We are opposed to tho policy and nrnritlco of surrendering to the hold ers of the obligations, of the United States, the option reserved by law to tho government of redeeming such ob ligations In cither silver coin or gold coin. We are opposed to tho Issuing of In-tflrpst-bearW bonds of the United States in time of peace, and condemn the trafficking with banking syndi cates which, In exchange for bonds and at an enormous proiid 10 mem selves, supply the federal treasury with gold to maintain the policy of gold monometallism. ISSUE OF MONEY. Pnnnroco iilnnn linn Hip rvuvpr in coin and issue money, and Prerldent Jackson declared that this power could not bo delegated to corporations or individuals. c wieruiuro uo nounce the Issuance of notes intended to circulate as money by national banks as in derogation of tho consti tution, and we demand that all paper which is made a legal tender for public and private debts or which is tw.nlcnt1n tnr fllltlfS t flip TTnlfrd Gtates shall be be issued by the gov ernment of the United States and shall be redeemable In coin. TARIFF. We hold that tariff duties should be levied for purpose of revenue, such du ties to be to adjusted as to operate equally throughout the country and not-discriminate between chm or sec tion, and that taxation should bo limited by the needs o& the govern ment nonestiy ana economically au mln 1st rated. We denounce as disturbing to busi ness the Republican threat to restore the MoKlnley law, which has twice been condemned by the people In na tional elections, and which, enacted under tho false plea of protection to home Industry, proved u prolific breeder of trusts and monopolies, en riched the few by the expense of tho many, restricted trado, and deprived tho producers of the great American staples Of access to their natural mar kets. INCOME TAX. Until the money question Is settled we arc opposed to any agitation for further changes In our tariff laws, ex cept such as are necessary to meet the deficit in revenue caused by the ad verse decision of the supreme court on the income tax. But for this dcclsidn by tho supreme court there would bo nodoficlt In the revenue under the law passed by a Democratic congress In strict pursuance or tnc unirorm deci sions of Hint court for 100 years, that court having In that decision sus tained constitutional objections to Its enactment which had preciously been overruled by the ablest Judges who have ever sat on the bench. Wo de clare that It Is the duty of congress to use all the constitutional power which remains after that decision, or which may come from its reversal by tho court as it may hereafter be consti tuted, so that the burdens of taxation may bo equally and Impartially laid, to the end that wealth may bear its due proportion of the expense of the government. LABOR. We hold that the most efficient way of protecting American labor Is to prevent the importation of foreign pauper labor to compete with it In tho home market, and that the value of tho homo market to our Amorlcan farmers and artisans is greatly reduced by a vicious monetary system which depresses tho prices of their products below the cost of production, and thus deprives them of the means of pur chasing the products of our home manufactories, and, as labor creates the wealth of the country, we demand the passage of such laws as may be necessary to protect itln all Its rights. We aro in favor ot the arbitration ofdifferences between employers en gaged in interstate commerce and their employes, and recommend such legislation as is necessary to carry out this principle. The absorption of wealth by the few. tho consolidation of our leading railroad systems, and the formation or trust ana pools require a suqtcr control by the federal government of those arteries of commerce. Wo de mand tho enlargement of tho powers of the interstate commerce commiss ion and such and such restrictions and and guarantees In In tho control of railroads as will protect the people from robbery and oppression, TAXATION. Wo denounce tho prolllgato waste of the money wrung from the people by oppressive taxation and the lavish appropriations of recent Republican congresses, which havo kept taxes high while tho labor that pays them ta .mnrmlimil uml tl.A W1 llrtl ft in uumuijiujuu, unit uiiu iimuuvu 111 the people's toll aro doprcssed In prlco till tiioy no lnnuor rppay tho cost of production. Wo demand a return to that slm pllcity and economy which benefits a Democratic government and a reduc tion in the number or useless omces, the salaries of which drain the sub stance of the people. FEDERAL INTERFERENCE. Wodenouncc arbitrary Interferences by federal authorities in local affairs as a violation of the constitution of the United States and 11 crlmo against free institutions, ntm we especially object to government by Injunction as a new and highly dangerous form of oppression, by which federul judges In contempt of the laws of the states and rights of citizens, become at once legislators, Judges, and executioners, and we approve the bill passed at the last session of the United States son ate, and now pending in tho house of representatives, relative to contempts In federal courts and providing for trials by Jury In certain cases of con tempt.
