A wool grower in Colorado writes as follows : "We of Colorado have much to complain - plain of. Not only has silver bten demonetized - monetized , but last and worst the sheep and wool of Colorado have been demonetized. v. "We have got along with .the de monetization of silver for more than twenty-three years , and we still pro duce $15,000,000 worth of silver annual ly. This is more than three times as much as produced at the time of the demonetization. The highest value of our silver product in any one year was in 1892. We then produced a little more than ? 17,000,000 worth. This year we will have produced about ? 14,000 , - 000 worth. By the repeal of the SherI mar. silver purchase law our annual silver product has declined about ? 2 , - 500.000. "But the demonetization of sheep and wool has hurt us worse than that , In 1S92 our wool clip sold for nearly $6,000,000. This year it will scarcely sell for $1,500,000. The sheep and wool .industry of Colorado in 1S92 was worth to the state about $8,000,000 ; in 1896 it will hurry it to amount to $2,000 , - 000. • "In other words our loss by the de monetization of sheep and wool is about $3,500,000 , more than our loss by the demonetization of silver. "While the Sherman silver law was in existence , silver averaged 92.445 cents per'ounce ; but since the repeal it has averaged 64.133 cents per ounce. This is a decline of about 31 1-2 per cent. In 18S2 wool in Colorado was worth 15 cents per pound ; but this year our wool growers are offered 2 cents per pound. This is a decline of 86 2-3 per cent. "In 1892 mutton < = heep in Colorado were worth an averL , of $3 per head ; now they are worth about $1. This is a decline of 66 2-3 per cent. "So you see the demonetization of sheep and wool has hurt us in Colorado rado worse than the demonetization of silver. " BRYAN AND WOOL GROWERS. Extracts Which Show the Candidate Is a Free Trader. " From the Canton ( Illinois ) Register , we clip /vine extracts irom the speech Bryan made upon the Wilson-Gorman tariff , as follows : "Wool , for instance , is the chief raw material in the woolen industry , and it has been placed upon the free list Whether the tariff on wool has raised the price of wool to the sheep grower above the point it would have reached without a tariff is a question which has been discussed rather than settled. Speaking for myself , it is im material in my judgment whether the sheep growrs receives any benefit from the tariff or not. "Whether he does or not , whether the wool manufacturer collects a compensatory duty from the consumer of woolen goods and pays it over to the wooR" "v , or collects it and. keeps it himfcy doesn't col lect it at all , and m. . . .jre does not need it , I am for free wool in order that the vast majority of people who do not raise sheep , but who do nemi warm clothing to protect them from the blasts of winter may have their cloth ing cheaper ; and in order that ou- woolen manufacturers , unburdened by a tax upon home grown wool may manufacture for a wider market. "The committee has left not onlj' upon carpets but upon iron , and upon woolen goods and cotton goods and all through the bill far more tariff than anybody can justify , even if it could be shown that any protection is needed at all or could be rightfully asked. " The above extracts from Bryan's speech show he is an ultra free trader. Remember this was relating to the "Wilson bill , a much stronger bill than the one finally passed , ' • . .i-led the Wilson-Gorman bill. In that speech he says the tariff in the "Wilson bill is far too high. How do RepubFcanb relish these principles of the Demo cratic candidate ? Ogden Press. For Fiat Money. One hy one the Popocrats are throwing off the mask and admitting that they want no bimetallism , but silver monometallism. H. L. Louks of South Dakota , a leading Populist , admits that he wants silver "because it is a step toward fiat money. " The Nebraska patriot , Edgerton. admits that fiat money will follow silver. A Kentucky silver man joins in the song in the Louisville Courier-Jour nal : "If the people want bimetallism at all. they j nt the currency depre ciated , ana this is what would be done if the ratio of 16 to 1 should ue adopted. It is not parity which we want ; it is not concurrent circulation ; if gold does not circulate here it will circulate elsewhere , as it is now do ing ; it will still form a portion of the world's money supply. We will have no need for gold ; silver will be our money , and it will be what we want , a depreciated currency. " Mc Cook ( Neb. ) Republican. Dignity. As becomes a man who is not giv en to chasing rainbows , William McKinley - Kinley will not take the stump in this campaign. This is in consonance nance with the dignity of the great office for which he has been named. He will stay at home and let "the office seek him" instead of chasing over the country after it. This fea ture of the campaign will certainly appeal strongly to the good sense of those who in the years gone by have . advocated the idea "that the office should seek the man , not the man seek the office. Republican , McCook , Neb. Neb.When When applied to Major McKinley the popular song must he revised to read : "He does't have to wander from his own fireside. " % "J ! fisFmXtj j !
