EUTTISTOCSi:.
There U large ilufplcIonabroa4
that a irmt qsdt tne coinage men la
ooogrcas are willing to oompromise on
a new ratio of SO to 1. The members
from tbe silver stales know vhat their
people are la a desperato condition, and
being actuated chiefly bj the selflbh de-
tin to raise the price of bullion, are
beginning to hedse. Many free in-
age democrats who are anxious to get
the silver question out of the way and
are their party from ruin will compro
mise on a new ratio. To the populist
almost alone I left the Uik of main
taining tbe fight for the present ratio,
and It is to be hoped they will do their
duty.
Such a compromise m earn an abandsn
me'nt of principle for the sake of policy.
It means that the people will have to
nr their debts in dollars one-iourth
larger than the dollars In which the
debts were contracted. It means the
recoinage of all the silver coins in the
country amounting to half a billion
dollars. It means a contraction of
1100,000,000 In the existing volume of
currency. It means an acknowledge
ment on the part of silver men that
they have been wrong in their de
mands. It means tbat tbe money power
will hold the advantage it has gained
bv contracting our currency and re
ducing the price of all prsducts. These
are things no populist can endorse.
But aside from the principle involved
populists must consider the effect which
such a comprom.se would have on their
oartv If it should become a law. The
money question has become the chief
plank in their platform, and unfortuna
tely the free coinage of silver has al
most become t'o money question. If
the silver auestion should be settled by
a compromise on a new ratio, it will be
settled for a long time if riot for all
time. Then the cry will go up from all
the papers and sbouters of both old
parties that the money question Is
settled and out of politics. The old
eartles will then return to their fight
over the tariff. Thousands who are
now In the new party and thousands
mora who are on tbe point of joining
it will be deceived by this clamor into
thinking that the reform movement
has accomplished its chief aim and will
fall back into the ranks of their o!d
parties. Thus tbe final success of tbe
reform movement will be put ba:k many
Stand by the ratloCpf 16 to 1 and fitfht
the money power to the bitter end.
CLEVELAND A DESPOT.
It is no woader ; the money power
nominated and elected Grover Cleve
land in spite of all opposition. They
knew their man. They knew that in
him they had a man who cared nothing
for the democratic party except as
a means of securing his elevation to
power; a man who cared nothing for
public opinion, or the welfare of the
masses. They knew tbat in Urover
Cleveland they had a cold-blooded narrow-minded
eolfijh conceited despot
who would make their ends his ends
and would sacrifice everything else to
the accomplishment of those ends.
Tbey were not mistaken. The pretl
dent is determined to rule the demo
cratic party or to wreck it. The
methods he is using are well stated in
the following dispatch to a daily paper
which la in full sympathy with the
president:
This is President Cleveland s first de
termined effort to conquer his own
party in congress. If he fails In this
effort he will find himself and his party
with two heads and his organization in
confusion. Ue realizes as well as any
body that he must succeed in this
effort if he would make his administra
tion a sucoess from any point of view.
Mr. Cleveland Is potsetsed of the
fullest possible feeling that the country
will stand by him If he oversteps all
precedents in bringing about a repeal
of the Sherman law.
Not only have instructions been is
sued by the chief executive to the heads
of the eight executive departments
that there shall be no official favors dis
tributed until after the silver law is re
pealed, hut the entire machinery of the
departments Is being turned to the
manufacture of pressure in congres
sional districts upon congressmen.
The army oi federal c:::ce comer
who would be subservient to the ad
ministration under which It serves, Is
turninir its attention to congress, In
the same manner that the machinery
Is applied to bring about a continuance
of the party In power.
Ortalnly I'rcBiuent wieveianu win
be severely crltloliod by the extreme
friends of sllverfor going to the lengths
to which be Is now plunging for the
purpose of securing legislation of his
own notion, but there are patriotic
statesmen in congress from both
political parties who will support the
president in this action. They bellove
that the fiat element has secured sutll-
cient power In certain communities to
ovtrawe good sense and sound financier-
in, and that It win m neceeaary u
check this tendency by unusual
method, dust so surely as tie con
stant dripping of water on stoae will
wear away the latter suUunce, so will
the application of the eitreme offlolal
power f the preUrot of the l'n!wd
Mat wear away alruoetany opposition

5th, to complete the work, so if you do
not get in In time for tbe evening meet

who have a' ready subscribed, bpt we
want more subscribers to come up and

let us during the convention finish the
good work begun, and go into the cam
paign to win. We know we are right,
and we believe we shall be able to con

our cause, and the press is the cheapest
and most powerful agent to carry con

Let all contentions, except for our
principles, cease, and all hatred, except
for uncleanness, bo buried, and as one
man let us stand for wife, children and

PATERNALISM VS. NATIONALISM.
There is a senseless cry of "paterna
lism" raised whenever it is proposed to
enlarge tha powers of 1 government.
Paternalism, such as this1 country has
been cursed with deserves tbe severest
condemnation. The most prominent
example we have of it is the so-called
protective system. Under this system
the consumers of the nation are taxed
to build up tbe Interests of a few. In
the same class are bounties on sugar,
subsidies to steamship lines, lane' grants
to railroads etc. The patriotism of the
people Is append to n BuPfYt o!
tariffs, bounties etc., on tbe grouna that
they develop the resources of the
country, vary its- industries and thus
benefit the whole people. But when
these resources are developed, and in
dustries built up under the fostering
and assisting care of the government,
the results belong, not to the people,
but to a few individuals and corpora
tions. This species of paternalism is
wrong in principle, injurious and cor
rupting in praotice. Yet it is upheld
and lauded to the skies by the very men
who howl "paternalism" the loudest
when it Is proposed to nationalize any
industry.
Nationalism, en the other hand is
correct in principle, in harmony with
sound reasoning, and beneficial to the
whole people in its results.
- To use the power of government in
doing something which it is dangerous
to permit a lew individuals ta do is
wise statesmanship. In fact that is tbe
only final protection the people have
againBt the oppressions and extortions
of monopoly.
John Stuart Mill lays down the true
principle when he says that when any
branch of human industry tends natur
ally to become a monopoly the govern
ment (the whole people) must assume
Its ownership and control.
Under nationalism the people may be
taxed to enable the government to
assume control of an industry, but the
money they pay out of their individual
pockets is paid into their collective
pocket, (the treasury); it is spent in
securing or, establishing property that
belongs to them collectively; and all
increase, revenu? and benefit resulting
from the operation accrue to the whole
people.
Tha experience the people of this
country have had with paternalism
during the past thirty years has done
one good thing: It bas developed the
general idea that the welfare of the
whole people is superior to the welfare
of an Individual or a class. It has de
veloped a sort of national sentiment.
True this sentiment hw been plnyed
upon by cunning selfish men bent on
sacrlUclng the general good for the
benefit of a few; but tho sentiment ex
ists and is very strong,
1 he thing for reformers to dots not
to antagonize this sentiment, but to
(outer It, to educate the people, and turn
the actl .'O resulting from this sentiment
lntathe right channels.
When the people see that the govern
ment can tay pivptrtj tttrftrt with the
Industries of the country when it la
turfrvs ta Its oa bohalf ar.d tor the
Interests of the whole peopl. and that
It mml InhrftH wheaeter the int rests
of the whole HHple are la danger, titea
the pnvese of aatlunalUlng monopolies
will btglo.
A NTtiittit of prominent djm.craU
are twmpwUof for the reputation of
Wing the John haroaa of the demo
d ratio party. At present I'arlMe aal

GOLD BUG CLEVELAND
Of all the fools in this country, there
are none so great today, and nose whe
make their folly so censpicieui as the
democrat who still claim that Cleve
land Is at heart a bimetallist. In all
bis utterances public or private there l
not a sentence that would indicate that
Cleveland Is favorable in the least de
gree to the use of silver as a standard
money on an equality with gold. On
the contrary all his utterances show
unmistakably that he Is in favor of a
gold standard, and none so much as his
last message.
But if lurther proof were needed, it
has been forth-coming. The gold stand
ard men have realized in the past two
weeks that their greatest danger lies
in the possibility of a compromise for
the free coinage of silver at a new ratio,
If the administration favored sliver at
all, it would favor such a compromise.
But Carlisle representing Cleveland
has suddenly discovered that a change
of ratio Is very unwise, it would be very
expensive. He has written a letter to
Voorhees, and that second John Sher
man has paraded it before the senate,
showing that a chsnge to a ratio of 20 to
1 and a recoinage of our silver on that
ratio would cost at least $112,000,000.
This la nodobbttrue, and a good reason
for opposing a change of ratio. But the
object of the administration is to de
feat free coinage at any ratio. The
gold standard men have cried loud and
long for a "dollar's worth of silver in a
dollar." But now when some weak
backed silver men propose to put more
silver in the dollar, behold! Gold-bug
Cleveland whirls about to oppose it be
cause it would be too expensive! If a
ratio of 20 to 1 Is to be opposed for that
reason, any higher ratio would only be
so much worse because more expensive!
Let the cowardly friends of silver
who ever thought of such a compromise
hide their heads in shame to find such
tools of the money power fightlDg with
them against a change of ratio.
"Sixteen to one or nothing'' should be
the motto of every true friend of silver,
and if they fall now, (the people will
elect a congress two years hence ihat
will restore silver in spite of Cleveland's
veto.
A MILLIONAIRE POPULIST
There is p the Pennsylvania delega
tion a millionaire congressman whom
the eastern press sets down as a "demo
pop." He is a fully developed populist
in principle, and on lost Friday he sur
prised the gold-bugs by making one of
the most eloquent and impressive silver
speeches yet heard. His name is Sib
ley and be hails from Erie, Pensylvania.
The following ext: acts are from the
Itockv Mountain News' dispatches'.
In his speech Mr. Sibley explained
that although at one time he had been
a director in a national bank and a
monometallism he had divested himself
of all interested motives, ana studied
the bimetallic question from tbe stand
point of philosophy, humanity and
truth.' and hence he "preferred being an
honest man to being a monometallism"
Keferrlng to the recent gold speecn
made by Congressman Hendrlx of New
York, wherein he spoke of the evolu
tion of bimetallism to monometallism,
Mr. Sibley said: "The suggestions of
evolution come from gentlemen of full
stomachs. I desire to suggest that
there 'is another word but one letter
longer that may come from empty
stomaehs 'revolution."
Mr. Sibley caused some laughter by
the manner in wh ich he paid his respects
to the New York Reform club, the
bankers and the gold-bugs. Since be
(Mr. Sibley) had been in Washington
he had been asked why he was so com
fortably off in this world's goods, and
coming from Pennsylvania, should take
the position he now did. His reply
was that the people of Pennsylvania
could still read, write and think. They
read their bibles and they knew that
the command was just as true today as
it had been when ic was thundered from
Sinai: "Thou shalt not steal."
He then referred to the speech made
by Mr. Grosvenor of Ohio a few days
ago. If ever a man had ripped the
democratic party up the back, had
knocked It down and had trampled up
on it, that gentleman had done so. But
in winding up his speech the gentleman
had demanded tbe unconditional repeal
of the Sherman law; and be (Mr. Sib
ley) had seen a democrat from New
York clap his hand long after everyone
e!e bad ceaed the applause, and he
(Mr. Sibley) did not know whether this
democrat was applauding the first part
of his speech or the latter. It was said
that the republicans were going to join
with the democrats n repealing the
Sherman law. What republicans and
what democrats? The republicans of
the East and the democrats of the
East. But In his opinion the salvation
of the country depended upon the peo
ple whe were living vet of tho Aile
K henles and south of the Mason and
Dixon's line. (l.aughter.J
Mr. Sibley spoke for more than two
hours and not for a moment did he lack
attention, and In bts maiden speech he
took front rank with the orators and
humorists of tbe hou?e.

AN AWFUL STORY-
The following cold facts and figures
from "Dunn's review of trade" for last
week tell an awful story. They tell a
story of wrecked hopes; of ruined for
tunes; of present want and prospective
starvation; of rage, misery, despair,
insanity and suicide; a story too awful
to tell; a picture to black to paint:
"No such shrinkage resulted at any
time in five weary years after tbe panic
of 1873, as has already appeared in great
industries. Pig iron does not rally, but
sells at tie here and $13 at Pittsburg
for No. 1, though the weekly output has
been reduced 4o per cent since May l.
Only a third of tne Coonellsvllle coke
ovens are at work, but coke at 81.25
gives a better chance to iron manufac
ture. Sales of woolens in seven weeks
have been only 17,575,000 pounds against
00,328,880 last year ana 27,4DU,8uu in ibi
and it is stated that 93,000 looms and
4,00,000 spindles in England are now
idle, which means more than one-fourth
of the cotton spindles ia the country.
Shipments of boots and shoes from
Boston since the end of June have been
4(12.848 eaiteg. Bcainst 472.345 last Year.
a decrease of 17 per cent, but a little
more demand for goods is now seen, and
some factories near Boston and Phila
delphia have resumed.
Tbe New York clearing house has
now Issued 937,800,000 certificates and
the Boston clearing house $11,200,000,
bat more important relief comes from
tie abatement of the drain upon savings
bulks and of the demand upon other
banks for currency to be used in paying
bands in this and adjacent states. Bat
tnis decrease in demand is oi ltseii evi
dence tbat industries and trade are
ereatlv embarassed, many works hav
ing stopped and many hands receiving
no wages, as yet tne worits ciosmg
exceed in number those resuming, and
the failures continue each week to re
strict the number of firms able to share
la the employment of hands and the
transaction of business.
The failures this week" number 455
ia t'ae United States, against 192 f r
the same week last year, and 27 in
Canada, against 25 last year. Of United
States failures 154 were in the eastern
states, 84 in southern, and 217 in west
em states and territories.
A hired gold-bug correspondent for
the St. Joseph Herald has discovered
that Congressman Bryan has "around
grsat opposition in his district by his
violent free silver views, and that
"prominent democrats from his state
predict his defeat bayond hope in the
next congressional race." The said
correspondent is no doubt doing what
he was hired to do, but his idea of the
situation in Mr. Bryan's district will
cause Nebraska people to smile. The
fact is that Bryan's free silver views
elected him to the present congress,
and the fight he is how making in con
gress is applauded by four-fifths of the
voters of the state. Such prominent
democrats as J. Sterling Morton may
stand in with Grover Cleveland, but
they don't represent Nebraska.
