MEXICO VS. BRYANISM.
Mr. Bryan, ifc appears, is going to
make a quite extended visit in
Mexioo, but although that country
has the silver standard, it utterly
rejects Bryanism. It is a fact
worthy of emphasis that Mr. Bryan’s
program and the platform on which
he wants to run again for president
of the United States are as repung
ent to the settled financial policy of
Mexioo as they are to that of the
United States.
For example, one of the most
conspicuous and fatal propositions
of the Chicago platform is the prop
osition to abolish the right of private
contract with respect to money.
That is to say, it proposes to make
illegal and uncollectable any con
tract, evidenced by note, mortgage,
bond or other instrument, to pay a
particular kind of money, and es
pecially to pay gold. But Mexico,
although it legally has free Bilver
monometallism by reason of free
coinage, maintains and always has
maintained, the wise policy of per
mitting private contracts. All
citizens and denizens of Mexico may
use the gold standard in their pri
vate contracts and the courts will
enforoe payment.
Again: Mr. Bryan and the Chi
cago platform vehemently denounoe
national bonds payable in gold, or
the notion of permitting our govern
ment to have the descretion to use
such bonds. But the government of
Mexioo follows exactly the opposite
polioy. Nearly all the national debt
of Mexioo is in bonds payable
expressly in gold. The same is
true of the bonds of the various
states and municipalities of Mexico,
as well as of the railroad and other
large corporations, including many
of the silver mining corporations.
Mexioan statesmen and business
men would regard Mr. Bryan as
little short of insane if he should
propose to them to abolish this
polioy, so wise is it and so greatly
to the advantage of business and
government Yet precisely this
insanity is one of the most conspicu
ous purposes of the Bryanite party
in the United States.
There is some excuse for Mexioo
having the single silver standard.
Mexioo came naturally by it Mex
ioo never committed the unspeaka
ble folly of changing abruptly from
the gold to the silver standard, but
was always on the silver standard.
The policy of free coinage simply
carried the silver standard in Mexico
down with the fall of silver in the
market of the world. The injury
and loss which would naturally
result to business in Mexico has
been greatly modified and reduced
by the ability of all men to use the
gold standard in their contracts, t
A sudden change of standard, no
matter in what direction, must
always be avoided, and it would not
be wise for Mexico now to change
abruptly from silver to gold, al
though doubtless a change will have
to be made. But it is well to note
that there is not a trace of Bryanism
in Diaz and the other statesmen of
Mexico. They are wise conservative
and safe men, and they have abso
lutely no nse for Bryanism in any
form. —Sioux City Journal.
Edgar Howard, county judge of
Sarpy county, and editor of the
Papillion Times, is being groomed
by some of the democratic press as
the fusion candidate for lieutenant
governor next year. But Edgar
says he will not accept. He is an
astute politician and has never been
defeated for office, and does not
intend at this late day to run up
against a stone wall, which the
fusion candidates will have to do
next fall. The /epublican tioket,
composed of good olean men, will be
the stone wall.
The action of Governor Bushnell,
of Ohio, in using his office to assist
the democrats in defeating Mark
Hanna for re-election as senator, is
contemptable, and places the here
tofore highly respected governor in
the ranks of the traitors. Hanna
was the choice of the republican
state convention that nominated Mr.
Bushnell for a second term, and the
latter pledged him his support.
But the ambitious and venomous
governor thinks by defeating Hanna
he could secure the prize himself.
There is only one way to treat men
of his calibre and that is to let them
drop into obscurity as soon as
possible.
