Do YOU hear very many people com
plaining about their dollar purchasing
too much when they go to spend it'
We don't think.
TnE sixteen to one you hear people
talk about h abeen fi cured out to
mean that there will be sixteen men
out of work to one employed if Bryan
is elected.
One of the best documents that
could be sent outduring this campaign
is McKinley's letter of aooopUnca. It
contains facts and figures that cud not
be denied.
The newspapers over the parts of
the state where Judge Scott is mak
ing his free silver speeches give that
gentleman such warm roasts that he
will not get cooled off before spring.
The Central Nebraska Republican,
published at Grand Island by Seth P.
Mobley, is doing more good work for
the republ lean ticket than any paper
in the state. Mobley is a good writer
and is onto the situation.

The Illinois democrats have a good
opinion of each other. Ex-Congressman

to answer for.
"Let no act be done, no policy be
adopted, no expedient resorted to,that
will tarnish the honor of this great
'republic," is the adfice of John Sher

thus far in the history of the country
every party of repudiation has been
wiped out at the polls.
It Isn't anywouder the people of
Lincoln feel sore when they contrast
the actions of their candidate for pres

of people visit Canton every day, and
Mr. McKinley's residence is of some
value to that city. Bryan is putting
in his time chasing around over the
country placing himself on exhibition
making a cheap show of himself and
is of no particular benefit to the place
of his residence. Ex.
It is estimated that McKinley's ma
jority in New York will run above
three hundred thousand. More than
a hundred thousand has been added to
the estimate since Bryan read his es
say in New York City on account of
the fact that he fell so far short of ex
pectation and so much below his reci
- tation delivered at the convention at
Chicago. His quite brilliant recita
tion had caused him to be greatly
over-estimated, but his essay dispelled
the illusion and gave his true meas

the tima of Bryan's nomination, is fast
recovering itself, and will soon have
gained all and more than was lost.
The people are beginning to think,
and the more they think the more con
vinced they become that free silver is
not what they want so much as they
do an opportunity to earn an honest
dellar. This opportunity will of
course come with the election of Mc
Kinley and thd starting of the mills

nor THE REAL CAUSE.
Jn December, 1892, President Harri
son sent his annual message to con
gress. In reviewing the condition of
the country he wrote as follows:
'There has never been a time in our
history when work was so abundant,
or when wages were so high, whether
measured by the currency iu wnich
they are paid or by their power to
supply the necessaries and comforts of
life. The general average of prices
has been such as to give to agricul
ture a fair participation in the gen
eral prosperity. The new industrial
plants established since October 6,
1890, up to October 22, 1892, number
345, and the extensions of existing
plants 108. The new capital invested
amounts to $40,44G,080,and the number
of additional employes 37,3S5. During
the first six months of the present
year 135 new factories were built."
This is an accurate review of our
condition then. That prosperity was
achieved under a republican adminis
tration and under the existing money
standard."' The fact that such prosper
ity resulted proves that our money
standard is not the cause of present
depression. Under the same standard
our prosperity will return again. It
is folly to try reckless financial ex
periments when the present standard
has been tested and found satisfactory.
The panic of 1893 was severe and its
effects are still felt.
Let it be remembered that the panic
of 1857, 1837 under bimetallism were
far worse. Bimetallism is not proof
against industrial disturbances, as ex
perience shows. Lincoln News.
The idea that they can pay their in
dobtedness easier with a 50 cent doi
lar than with an horrcst dollar is quite
a fetching theo'y with many people
who like the idea of repudiation if it
comes in a manner sanctioned by law
What silver you have in your pocket is
with one blow robbed of half its pur
chasing power as you must know,
hence there is no benefit -from that
source. But how are you to get any
of these cKpap dollars? The mine
owner who has become a millionaire is
of no benefit to us now, why should he
be of any more benefit if his fortune
were doubled. Did any silver mine
owner ever make you a present of a
dollar, do you think anyone is likely
to do so? No you must give labor or
eorn or wheat or some other product
in exchange for the dollar. The mine
owner even under the new order of
things will not require an additional
bushel of corn or pound of pork. He
may employ a few of the hundreds of
idle men which now throng the min
ing regions but the benefit from that
will bo infinitesmal. The practical
effect of it all will be that a few dema
gogues may get into ofllce on the
flimsy theory that the common people
are to get something for nothing, but
the danger comes in the immediate
removal of $010,000,000 .in gold from
circulation, contracting our currency,
unsettling values and incitiug a panic
that would send thousands of thrifty
people into bankruptcy and financial
rirtn. Every monied interest in the
country realizes this and opposes the
robber standard. Is it likely that
these men of money will invest a dol
lar or start an idle wheel when .their
interests are assailed? The very es
sence of the present silver agitation
must react against labor, as it pre
cludes the possibility of men in
vesting their money to give more enr
ployment. The gold standard means
return of confidence, it means the in
vestment of idle money. It means work
at good wages for the industrious and
general prosperity for the whole
country.
The mortgage indebtedness of Ne
braska is about 8110,000,000. It is a
large sum of money, and it would
hurry us some if called up to liquidate
inside of thirty days. But let it be
known to the world that Nebraska has
live stock enough to pay every obliga
tion and have some left. It has houses
and lands worth $1,500,000,000 and a
crop on hand that will easily yield
50, 000,000 at present prices. A re
turn to normal business conditions
will make it possible for any indus
trious farmer to gradually pay off his
"national debt" and have a lot of
property at the "close of business" to
divide among his sons and sons-in-
law. The democratic party cannot
be trusted with legislative power
if our people hope for a return of pros
perity. It has existed during the past
forty years only as an organized pro
test against every measure calculated
to assist the struggling masses to
higher planes of living. It killed
reciprocity and closed the markets of
a dozen foreign nations to the pro
ducts of Amcriean farms and factories.
It wrapped its bony old fingers around
the throat of home industry and vir
tually said to" our people, "Buy of
England or go without." Now, the
leaders say that new issues have
arisen, and they have arisen to meet
them (as they did the tariff issue in
1892.) Farmers of Nebraska, would
you trust the gang that stole your
hogs to stand guard over your hen
roost? Would you trust the doctor
who gave you croton oil for an emetic
to prescribe for you hydrocyanic acid
as a rostorative ? No, you would send
for the oJd family physician and con
fess to him that you had been imposed
upon by a quack. You would beg him
to help by scientific medication or
make your last hours as easy as pos
sible. This country has had enough
of doubtful experiments and will re
turn the party to power, that believes
America is large enough and! strong
enough and patriotic enough to pro
tect her home industries without wait-
iog for the aid or consent of any na
tion on earth. State Journal.
The party of the best money, the

Buvan is likely to realize sooner or
later that he lingered too long in the
"enemies country." He should have
quietly remained in the country of
bis friends and allowed his friends to
call upon him. It is never good policy
to desert ones friends in the hope of
placating ones "enemies." Young as
he is Bryan should have been old
enough to haye known this.

It IS absolutely true as remarked by
a prominent advocate of sound money,
that:
There is no country on the face of
this earth, 1 care not where you go,
there is no country that opens its
raiuts to the free coinage of silver but
what all other kinds of money than sil
ver,and promises to pay in silver, have
tied the land. You cannot' go into a
country of this earth where its mints
are open to the free coinage of silver
and find a gold dollar circulating
among the peeple. Not only this, but
you cannot go todayinto any country
on earth that opens its mints to the
free coinage of silver but what your
dollar, gold, silver or greenback, will
buy twice as much as the best dollar
that is in the hands of the people of
any of those countries
