lino. Ho said in part. "The farmer known
"something about the gold standard When
they tell him the eastein financier v ants
a dollar lhat will buy a great deal of whcal ,
cats and corn , the farmer replies that he
would like to have the wheat , oats and corn

a dollar will buy a great deal It simply
ncans that property sells for litlle , and as
Iho dollar goes up prices must como down '

the center ot Iho cily , and the second In
the Odeon theater Ulg crowds grcc'tcd him
at both meetings , and the enthusiasm was
the moat marked of the1 day In his llrst
speech the nominee spcke but briefly , le
viewing ills principal arguments against the
gold standard and covering practically the
same ground as In his day lalKs In Ihe
course of his address at the theater he said
"I believe that you have met as members
of the sllvei clubs of the state of Iowa , and
I desire * lo speak lo you iciy briefly as mem-
be 's of these clubs We have lo depend
lately en clubs to cany this election I
tliInk the club la of mere Importance in Ill's '

The fcllvci clubs must do much upon our
Urto to offset the clubs that cmploycis hold

go among those people and could enlist mm
who would be willing to devote not a day ,
but months and even yean , , to icpcl Iho
Invadci Today wo are In the presence of
the Invasion not of a foreign enemy , but
of a foreign financial policy It is Invading

proclaim the God which they worship this
gold standard which Is secretly advanced at
every possible moinont , and yet with all Its
advances under cover and behind a mask
this gold standaicl Is loclay threatening Ihe
American people "

\s Senator Hill said at Chlcipo , the

The democratic pni ty at Chicago vvas not

Edgar H. Scotl was llio first speaker and

ccalllng to Iho minds of his hearers Iho
alnbou promls.es made by Iho democrats
our years ago and reminded them of how

At the meeting of the Tlrst Ward Me-
Clnley club last night JJ A Hcimon said
hat the Ibsucs of the campaign were clear
cut and admitted of no bupposltlons or "I
ic'llovcs" Ho traced the growth of money
rom the time when oxen were the standard
of value up to the present day In the time
of James II business vvas paralysed by the
spurious coin which the bankrupt king
olsled upon the pcoplo by thre'als of bo-
icadlng and hanging it the money was not
iccepted by Ihe common people The al
onip of the free Hlherites to make G3 cents'
worth of silver worth one de > llur ho cited us
i parallel case. The hollow ness of Mi
Iryan'a eloquence WOH described by the
jieaker and elicited great applause.
The next speaker , J. C. Whorton , cap-
ured the audlenco at tbei outset by a men-
Ion of the Ohio candidate for prcBldi-nt
Ir llryan , Mr. Whartou said , did not
imoko nor cheuv , nor play cards , but , ncvcr-
helesii , ho had two vlcen , ono in Malno and
no In Georgia , Betwccu the two ho was
In a position similar to thn IrUhnun who
went to the war to get peace from his two
wives The failure ot the promise of the
democrats to benefit Iho laborer by re
moving the "robber protective ? tariff" from
the dinner pall and woolen blanket vvas
shown In an unmistakable' manner.
The speaker urged the Importance of not
ing for a monetary system lhat had been
advocated by such men as Ooorgo Wash
ington and Thomas Jefferson In opposition
to the policy ot Pcniu er , Allgeld and Till-
man Mr Wharton showed the onward march of
prosperity that had ntlcnded the republican
party's administration One billion dollars
ot the public debt w s paid liefoie Cleve
land enleied Hit * white house , but since
that time * $262,000.000 of new bonds had been
snld"Tho
"Tho republican enemies say the reason
we ? were prosperous In the past was because
fil.ODOOOO ounces of silver vvero coined an
nually Hut has this money been eaten up ,
has it been lost or stolen ? Wo have * It now
and there are not the good times. The
awful secret crime of 1S73 which coveted
170 pages of the Congressional Itecord was
followed by Ihe mining of enough silver
to make n tialn long enough to re'aeh ten

nllh Inferior Dollnm ,
Thomas Kllpalrlck , a prominent local dem
ocrat and merchant , made his debut heforo
n political me cling lust night , when he ad
dressed Iho Potirlh Wnid Ite'publlcan club
at Palterson hall on sound money. Ills
leMiiiirks , as well as those of County Jndgo
lln\ler , Ihe other speaker , VVCTO listened to
by n good sized audience * , which Include-d In
Its numbers mall ) of the business ami pio-
fesslonal men of the city , besides many
laboring men.
Mr. Kllpatrlrk riled particularly the ex
periences of this countiy wllh a dopreclnled
curtency ns an aigument against the free
silver theory llo showed that In 17U ! the
forefathers placed thu ratio between gold
and sllvet at 16 to 1 , "not nrbltiarlly , but
because that ratio was ns near the eom-
morclal latlo as the ) could get. " At that
ratio gold was undervalued and consequently
quently left the country. Iherefoio , In 18.14
the ratio was changed to 1C to 1 , "about
which there was nothing sacred , but which
WHS flx il because such a ratio vvas thought
to bo the commercial ratio again. This
undeivalued silver and that riirioncy left
the country , oven to the subsidiary coins
To bring the l.atler back Into circulation
again the amount ot silver In them was
decreased and they once moro appeared "
As a further maniple ; of the manner In
which the cheaper money drives out the
dearer the speaker showed fill then that both
gold and silver left Iho country when In
1MU giccnbacks were made Iho legal lender
of Ihe country
Mr ICIIpatilck stated then that during the
war nn apparent prosperity iclgned , despite
the fact thai prosperity could not exist In
a country devastated by war. Ho showed
lhat as n mallet of fact the prices ot com
modities did raise , but entire * ! ) out of pro
portion with llio price ot labor. Where a
commodity jumped In value from $1 to $2 50
labor increased In pi Ice from $1 to but fl BO.
The drop came after the war nnd developed
Into the panic of 1873 It was during this
pcilod that the fallacious and vague Idea
that there was not enough cuircncy In cir
culation , which has developed In this Inter
fieo sliver agitallon , was born , for Iho pco
plo were unable lo see the real cause of
the hard times a debased currency.
riauuES ON PIH CAPITA.
Mr. Kllpatrlck also exploded tbo theory
that an inctcased circulation would bring
higher prl.es for commodities If Ihe white
metal was coined at a ratio of 10 to 1. Ho
showed that since 1S7S an enormous amount
of silver was coined , so that during the
past five ye'.ars the per capita ot circulation
of the country was grcatei than any other
live years. Yet prices were no higher.
"Accoidlng to the sllveriles' argument ,
Tiance , whlcll has the greitest per capita
circulation of any European country , should
have the highest prices , whereas , ns a mat
ter of fact , It has the lowest prices , " urged
Mr. Kllpatrlck. "By the adoption of the
free bllver theory the debtors of Ihe coun
try would reap a benefit by paying their
obligations In an Intel lor dollar"
Mr Kilpatrick maintained that the value
of good money was the same as the value
of the material of which It was made He
nigued thai Iho supply of gold was large ,
but that the demand was conslanlly In
creasing , and therefore Us value was kept
up. On Iho oilier hand , ho blated thai Iho
supply of silver was enormous and Iho de
mand for it was fulling oft , as the nations
of Iho world had found It unsnlted for
money , and it was therefore cheapening.
County Judge Baxter urged a return to
prosperity with national honor and integ-
rlly , ralhcr than to bellove in the fanciful
promises of Jiryan , which the cxpeilcncc
ot history has shown to bo Impossible Ho
said that the popocratic doctrine vvas lhat 1
a G3-cent dollar could bo boosted up to 100
cents , when experience taught that no metal
could bo raised by law above Its commer
cial value He quoted such democratic idols
as Thomas Jefferson , Uogei Q Mills and
Hoko Smith , who had -various times de
nounced the free and unlimited coinage of
silver.
T K Sudborough , republican candidate
for the s > tale senate was called for and after
d few brief remarks and In response to n
question , stated that Iho charge that ho
was unfavorable to fraternal Insurance com
panies was utlerly false He said lhat he
was a supporter of secret fraternal organi
sations , as well as of the valued policy law.
