who reported Mr. Kosowitor's Stronuburg
address there has been unavoidable dolav In

In tomorrow's Usuo. )
It may bo asflfed why can't the government
Issue pnpor currency directly tn thopeonloj
During the war they issued WOO.OOU.WW or
$7L'0,000,000 of urcoiibacks , why can't they peen
on Issuing paper money now ? True , the
govcrnmcntdld issue ijrccnbaclis during the
wnr , but thnt wus in tno oxurclso of the war
power for self preservation , Wo Issued
? 100UOO.U)0 ) worth ot I O U's to the people
nnu snlit If jou hnvo conlldonco In our ability
to whip thn rebels nnd establish our nation
on a IIrm. fooling , take this money and glvo
us what you have got and wo need
In exchange for It. The greenbacks
and the bonds were nothing moro tnan paper
obligations ot the government the onobonr-
Ing Interest with a limit ilxlng the time of
redemption , the other paynblo without Inter
est nntl with no time Used for redumption.
They tnlk about the bond holder gelling pay
In gold nnd the gun holder ( rotting pay in
rut ; monoy. Ihoso who buvo lived slnco tno
war know thnt every soldier who leant that
rag money until IbIS got gold for it Just the
snmo ns the bondholder. The men who
bought our bonds In lb)2 ( ) , ISO ) nnd Ihill did
not got gold ; most of them p.nled with their
bonds long ueforo unceio resumption , and
they got Just the sumo kind of money as tno
soldier. In IbTb everybody who hi'ld Unolo
Sinn's obligations iccelvcd gold or silver on
uctimnd lit the trcnsiiry. True , the interest
on the bonds wns payable in golil hut with
out thnt condition they could not have boon
sold at any price.
Why do we want national bnnks ! _ Why do
wnnllow those great monopolies loproyupon
the poor money borrowers ! Those questions
arc asked by the lliinnclal reformats and I
piopbsu frankly to unsttor them. Lolmosay
nl the outscl that 1 never had u dollar In
vested In u national bank nnd never l.avu
owned a doilni's \\urtliofnatlonal bank .stock
or any other Unnk stock. The onlv business
1 havohud with nntiruml bunUs wns to pay
them u great deal of interest. 1 am ono of
the heaviest borrowers in the stiitu of Nu-
biaslia. For snvcral years , past I have paid
liom ? iril)00 ) to SiO.OOO a year Interest on n
mortgagu debt , whicli I incurred in erecting
u great building. Tno greater part , of this
nionov I bonoucU from two life insurance
conipanlcs. It would be to my advantage to
reduce my rate of interest und got rid of my
debt , uut I boirowcd good monov four years
ago , every dollar of it was equal to 100 cents ,
nnd I feel obliged ns it matter of honor to pay
my debts in I ho same kind ot money that J
borrowed. If you borrowed 1011 bushels ot
wheat with the understanding tlmt at the
end of the year you uro to p.iy U hack to the
lender with sovcn bushels for its use , tlien
you should expect to pnv back 107 bushuls in
wheat and iu-t in oats or in corn.

* Lot us now corni ] to the imtlonHl bank
quoition. The nuilonal banks were stinted
in 1S03 at a time wlmn the credit of the
govern'iicnt had been almost exhausted mid
tha bonds wore no longer salable. Lincoln
and Chase thought that to issue any moro
green backs would dsprcclatothemto tliolovol
of conledurato currency , but if a new market
was found they might flout additional paper
currency , backed by the government bonds ,
wilhout further depreciating the crrei'iitnck.
* It wns decided to nilow those creditors of the
covernmcnt who held bonds to
deposit $1LO 1 1 bonds in the
treasury , and the treasury issued to
them in return $90 in national bank currency.
It jvas further provided that every national
bank should hold 6 per cent of its circulation
In reserve in lU vaults , and also 15 per cent
of lt deposits to protect ils depositors. In
other words , it a capitalist Invested $100 in a
government bond und deposited that bond in
the vaults of the treasury ho was allowed to
issue $ .K ) of national currency , and was
required further to hold in reserve -
servo $5 out of every S100. Ho wiis there-
4 ere , only/uule to loan out fS. ) on evcrv 100
nnu required to pay 1 per cent of inxes on
his entire circulation for the privilege. Witli
nil tin-so advunlae3. ( few capitalists c.imii
forward nt the beginning to start , national
bunks. During the lirbt year after the act
wns passed only I'M national banks were
started with a comparatively tininll amount
of capital. Few eupltalibts wanted to tauo
their chances in buvluc government bonds ,
because of the uncertainty of the outcome ot
the war. You will lomembor tha' the con-
ledurale bonds sold almost ns readily in Kng-
laud at Unit time as Iho United States bonds ,
nnd if Iho confederates hnd been viclorions
our bonds would not liuvo been worth much
more than the confederate scrip.
By July 1 , IfaUl , only $11,235,270 of national
bank currency had been put. in circulation.
July 1. 1805 , the national oauks had $140.137.-
800. In 1SOO Iho national bank circulation
amounted to$2Slli9U8. ! ) On July 1,1575.
the national buiiK circulation aggiouatcd
tri-M03,003. In lbS5 the national bank circu
lation had run down to $31SvrO,711. ! On July
1 , 1SU1 , the buiiK ciiculation wus f 107.1127,974 ,
end nt this time the national bank circula
tion is about $134,000,000. Why hnvo the
national banks thrown up over $225,000,000 ol
their circulation within the past ton yours
nnd taken their bonds out of the treasury i
The national bunKcranro not fools. If thoru
wns a big prollt in buying bonds with the
prlvlU-KO ot issuing currency for 90 nor cent ol
tholr luco value they certainly would avail
themselves ot it.
Lot mo illustrate. A money lender wants
to start u national bank To do this ho mint
buy United States bonds. It ho buys 4 per
o ut bonds ho is obliged to pay 14 nor cent
premium , If ho buys 2 per cent bondslie * cots
them at par. Suppose ho Invests in 4 poi

coin and got.s u 1100 bond , the United States
treasury returns him $ ' .K ) in national bank
currency , of which ho must Keep 5 oor cent

ness. Ono ot thoio was the bank

mutual friend. Uenornl Viin Wjck , wns n
heavy stockholder. Within Uio Init two
j-eurs twonty-llvo natlonnl banks hayo

Nobrnskn. A mojonty of the bank failures
In Xlioso two Atktcs were attributable , ACcording -
cording to tha comptroller of the treasury , to
crop failures. Calamity struck the national
banks as It did tbo farmers durlnc the
drouth years. Prosperity moans prospot-
lly to nil classes. Wtian men tell you that
the rich nro gottlng richer and the near nro
gottlng poorer : that the banks nro already
rolling tn wealth became ot your poverty ,
they nro Imposing on your credulity. Iho
truth is whenever you havn got products to
soil business is brisk and the bunkers Hnd
clonty ot demand for their money. When the
farmers are in distress the lawyers , mer
chants and doctors all sutler moro or loss.
llow Coulil thn .Minioy ( lot ( hit ?
Hut why should not the government Issue
this money directly lo the "people , you will
Mill nsk , and what advantage do the pcoplo
durivo from Iho ur.tionnl banks ? The gov
ernment can only pay out money to people
who have claims upon It. It van only pay
money to men who nro on Ils payroll , to the
builders of our navy , contractors on public !
buildings , to the men onllslcd in the nrmy
nid : thu navy nnd the pensioned veterans of
tHe union army. How could any ol you get
money from the [ rovcinmcnl ? Would the
govorntnotit buy your grain or cattle ! Hut
you want Iho government to establish a sub-
treasury In every county. How would
that help youl That would glvo you
only one bank in the whole county , whereas
you now have at least erie lutm In ovcrv
town. The national banks take thn risk of
losing Iho money they loan to merchants ami
inttnufncturprs and working people , who got
credit on tholr commercial standing and
promptness in meeting tholr obligations.
Suppose the subtrensiirv would loan money
iitJiporcenlon land. How could Ihc merchant
or manufacturer borrow any money ! The
fact Is that the national bank notes nro the
only safe und ulustio currency thnt this or
any otherrounlryhas overbad , Noholdarof
a rational bank note bos over lost a penny.
True , the greenbacks nro Just ns goou ns
money , out their circulation is not elastic ,
because the government can only pay out
green backs to pcoplo xvho have n claim upon
ll ; while lha national banks can , tn case of
nn emergency , incroiiso their clrouln'lon tem
porarily and surrenilur It when there Is no
dun nnd for it.
The government does issue inoner now
directly to tha people , through thonwnor * of
silver bullion nnd gold bullion , In the shape
of silver and gold reriillcutrs which ere ex
changeable for silver and gold coin , This
cuirency is absolutely safe , because there Is
gold und silver bullion of equal commercial
value in the vaults of the ivu.isury to redeem
It. Our silver certillcatos ere reallv worth
more than our .sliver dollars , because Uncle
Sam only issues n sllvfcr dollar cortlllcnto for
$1 worth of bullion , while tbo silver dollar
ccntains loss tbnn 70 cents worth of silver
bullion.
Yon wili nslc If the national banking busi
ness" is not profitable , why Mo wo have so
tnnnv imlionii ! bands ! All bankers ninico
most , of'thclr money by lending other pee
ple's ' money und thn bank that enjoys the
greatest conlldcnco umoug the people makes
the most money. Tbo reason why nalioual
banking is prolilnblo is because the nntionul
bin It draws : i greater inuount of deposits
than the state yr private hank by reason 01
the ccnlldenco Iho pcoplo have in ils sufoly ,
because the supervision of the gov
ernment Is much moro stringent than
that , of the state examiners. Some of
thu greatest national banks In the coun
try hnvo given up their entire circulation ,
but retain ihuir charters because they can do
a heavier deposit business under the na
tional banning system. Suppose the govern
ment were to wind ur > nil national banks and
issue greenbacks for tno bonds they how
have in the treasury , bow much would that
save you I Tbeso bonds nro only drawing
from U to 4 per cent , und the whole saving
would be between four nTid live million dollars
a year , or less thnn 14 cents per capita of
our population. That is not worth tearing
your shirt over , is ill
I'roo Ciilintgo Considered.
Tno second plunk of the independent plat
form declares : "Wo demand the free nnd
unlimited coinage of silver. " The republican
party Is in favor of a bimetallic currency
with every dollar worth as much as every
other dollar. They insist that our silver
dollar and our paper dollar shall remain ex
changeable for a gold dollar , ana tboy op
pose Iho freocolnajjo of sliver until n "ratio
shall bo cbtablishcd between gold and silver
that will nmko the silver in the silver dollar
wurlli us much ns the gold in the gold dollar
in uny part of the world.
What is free win ago ) The proposition
plainly stated is that any owner of silver
bullion limy deposit the same at any mint in
the United State * and havn it coined into
sinndaid dollars for his boncllt und without
charge. ' 1 he owner of the bullion ahull have
the option of receiving Iho coin , "or if lie is in
u hurry and Iho mint is notcapabloof coining
his bullion rapidly unough , ho shall have the
option to receive coin or Its equivalent in
treasury cortiiicatu . anil suet , bullion shall
be suosequonlly coined. This is the substance -
stance of llio free coinagn law as It passed
the senate. What does this measure signify
and what would be its piobabla oil cell U
means that the silver bblllonairo shall lake
$1 of the money diawn by taxation from the
American people and pay for It with 70 cents
worth of a cortaiu commodity of which ho is
the producer. The 70 cnnts would therefore
become a legal tender for 100 cents in ex
change for other commodities. If the wages
of ton hours uro represented in $1 , the mine
owner wants tbo farmer to exchange the
product of that dav's labor for tbo product
of six nnd n hulf hours' labor in the mine.
Who gets Iho bust ol thnt bargain , the mine
owner or tbo fanner nnd wage worker
in the mill or factory f Of course , if the
stamp on the face of n piece of bullion worth
70 cents tin-reuses lu value by 30 per cent
why not take half as much meial and stamp
C-lonll. i The vnlunot coin depends on the
nmuunt of labor it taKes to produce it. The
buo and cry about gold bugs and Wall street
sharks is : t political bugbear. Wall street
represents speculation. Tno men WBO loun
money on farms or other real estate securi
ties on long time cannot bo found In
Wall Blreot. The Wall slroot broker
deals lu mining stocks , railroad stocks und
all classes of securities that have a'specu
lative tendency lo nso nnd full rapidly. The
silver kill us of Nevada and Colorado gel
tliehbirjulni : principally from Wall street ,
where speculators cougiegnto nnd where
millions would bo madoin mtuingsiocksdeals
it no had unlimited free coinage of silver.
When the silver bill passed the senate in
Ih'.K ) . UIHI ll was expected thai free coinnce
would become a law.'silver went up lo 81.10
and mining stocks Jumped 80 or 40 points ,
and UioV < il ! Rtreut speculators rououd a rich
harvest , but did a single working man in the
mines gel n nicklo moro for his work than ho
received beforof
SlUnr's Itcliitlon to ( iold.
Why does Uio silver dollar , which only
contains 70 cants worth of bullion , circulate
u n 100-cent dollar ! Is it because the stamp
of ono dollar is on Us fnco ! Is it not bo-
caU o the government In able to redeem It
In gold on piesentullon : it the treasury , and
because it luw been so redeemed ever siuco
lb7S < Whv has silver KOOO down in tbo
markets ol Ihoyorld ? The free silver ad-
voonios say thai n all came about because
eonlrtess , In 1873 , passed an act discontinu
ing the colnupo of tuo standard silver dollar.
Tnoy loll us that this wus the result of a
groal conspiracy concocted in tingiund bv
iho gold bugs ot that counlrv , who sent
overu man by Ihe immo of Kinoil Soyd
wllh VOO,000 to uribo congress Into
di-moiiuiuliig slim1. Tbo truth li , Hi nest
Soyd always had bwn a bimetal-
lUt in Kuropo. Ho came hero to
advocate the double standard , nnd
not 10 oppose It. it is pri-Doiterous
to glmrge tnut the directors of the Hank of
Upland could flociutly take 1500,000 out of
tlu > vaults of tlmt bank , which is the proa !
treasure house of Uugiund and Is subject to
cont'uuous supervision by iho government.

Tnero was no conspiracy In 1s73 , As fai
back us IbCU Iho proposition made thai
the U illed Suite discontinue tbo oil u ago n !
the at i nil Jill sliver dollar. You should boai
In mind that in 17U.1 , when tbo silver dullai
wus ttrat created , ll becameiho unit of vutuo
Our monox Mumlurd was practically silver
There was very little gold in the countri
unu very llttlo of It circulated , The ruth
of the silver dollar was fixed at that , time at
ir to 1 ,
Uoar in mind , also , Ih&t the retativo vnluo
of silver to gold has nlwys fluctuated , Four
mmlred vonrs ago It took eight pounds ot
silver to oxctiango lor ono pound of gold.
At the boffluning ot this century fifteen
pounds of silver were ccfual to one
pound ot gold. In 1831 , when the lastclmr.go
was tnado In our ratio , it took sixteen pounds
of silver for ono pound of cold. Whrtt Is
.tin cause of thlsotiango in relative value ?
The commodity of silver has Increased In
quantity nnd the cost of 1'a production has
decreased ns compared with gold. Those of
vou who remember the period before the waa
will Dear mo out in snying thnt they never
RIUV an American silver dollar In circular
tlon. Wo hnd Spanish silver dollars , uut
oven they were not very numerous. The only
: oln wo hnd In general circulation was the
Imlf dollar , nnd it was demonetized In 1S.VJ.
Up to 1853 the silver hail dolars contained
exactly one-half ns much silver as the stand
ard silver dollars nnd their market vnluo wasn
trlllo moro limn gold. The result wns thnt they
were being molted down bv our Jewelers nnd
exported to foreign countries. By iho art of
! S. > 3 iho silver half dollars were reduced In
ivoight nnd mndo mibsldlar.v cointhat ; is ,
hey became token money , nnd that act also
provided that the sliver half dollar should
lot ho a legal tender for moro thnt $10 , Sil
ver , therefore , was practically demonetized
n lt > 53 and not lu 1S73.
IJnlfjIni ; thn CtilniiRC- .
There wns less than 0,000,000 xtnndard Ml-
vor dollars coined In the United Stutos be
tween Ib53 nnd 1S73 , and the whole coinage
of sliver lu emhty years uu to 1873 was only
$ S,2.V,000.uat ) then wns the object of the
act of ' 73 ! As tar back as ISO ! ) John .T. Kuox ,
comptroller of the treasury , called the alton-
llon ot congrox to thu fact that wo had three
different units of dollars , namely , the stiiml-
nrd silver dollar , the trndo dollar nnd thu
gold dollar , nun ho recommended that
congress should unify the coinaco. The
lilll was pen ding for two years and the de
bates In congress covered over seventy pngos
ot the Congressional Record. Senator
Stewart of Nevada voted for the bill and so
did the representatives of all the silver min
ing stntos. " They understand the object of
Lbo olll and they know Just as well ns I do
lhat there was no conspiracy to strllso down
the wlnto metixl. We hnvo been coining
moro silver dollars for every three months
since 1878 than h d been coined ill Iho whola
oicbty years beloro the silver dollar wns
struck off the coinage. Up to the present
time wo hnvo coined about 420,000,000 silver
dollars , of which only liJOOIOUO ( nro In circu
lation and Ihe rest remain in the vaults ot
the United Stales treasury.
Who , then , has slrucl : down silver ! The
same nsjonov thnt strikes down the price ot
your wheat nnd your cattle. Tht > price of
every commodity Is cnntrollcy ] by Iho inoxor-
nblo'law of supply and demand. In ISO ! ) the
prouuet of all our mines was loss than $500-
000. In 1805 the annual product had reached
between 810,000,000 nnd $11.000,001) ) ; in 1870
wo onlv mined $10,000Wi ) ) worth of silver ;
in lSSO0.00Oim ; ! ; In 1S90 wo mined over
? 70,000,000 , und In 1S01 about Iho snmo. The
annunl proilucl of gold for Iho Inst twenty
years has varied from $33,00J,000 to $ ' 10,000-
000. How can you ex pact to continue the two
metals on the same parity ! The value of a
sllvprdollar is intended to ho equal to ono
dollar's worth of Inbor. The cost of tuo pro
duction of silver Is now loss than 00 cents an
ounce. Its commercial vnluo Is S3 cents an
oun co. Silver mining Is one of
the most iirolltablo industries of the
world. It lias made nearly as many
millionaires as potrolo'im ' , or irou , or steel ,
or railroads. Why should the oooplo of Iho
United States bo call : d upon to pay for this
favored commodity moro than It is worth in
the mantels of tbo world !
The cry that the mining industry has been
crippled and almost destroyed because we
do not have free coinage is flatly contradicted
by the lact that the mines of Colorado , Mon
tana nnd the other silver producing' states
nro turning out nearly live times as much sil
ver nt the present time as they did in 1870
when silver was worth $1.29 an ounce.

The announcement that Jim Daly has thrown

Daly has said a ( treat ' -niiny things which
annoyed bis employer' , lie told some Now
Orleans sports that Cocbott had given him a
check for $10,000 as a loio of his esteem.
When Corbett was in f no city he xvas inked
why Uo persisted in . punjsnlncr Daly when
they were giving oxufbltlpns , ibis being the
reason given by Daly for quiling the combi
nation.
'I'll tell you , " Corbotr said , laughingly.
"Dalv was never hit very hard , nnd it was
not because of my punching nowors that hn

Last evening at 10 o'clock the ohtof , Ciip-
tain'nn Wlo end a Unu reporter mndo the
rounds. The enmos were running full blnu
nod in most of the places n crowd of men
nnd boys surrounded the tables. When the
blue cents entered fear of nrrest
nnd oxpojure took possasiloii of the
players nnd Iron hnrs nnd a police
court loomed up In their visions. M < iny n
prominent citizen wns caught In the net of
toying with the ivories und would have given
almost any fabulous sum to bo elsewhere
Just at thnt moment. I.ovo for wlfo nnd
children was suddenly recalled , the disgrace
of exposure nnd perhaps oxuulsion from n
congreiratlon cnused fonr to tike posses
slon of the tmin , nnd with p.ilo fnco
and form trembling ho gazed ut the
oillcors of the law nnd asked himself whether
a patrol waguu wns In walling Tno fears
were groundless. ( Jhlcf ileokoit wns simply
delivering In person the order nf Mayor
Miller thnt gambling must cense In Soulu
Ouintin nud iho resorts must bo closed for all
time lo come.
Tbo flrsi place visited wns tlio rooms under
iho Dolmonlco barroom. Dui ono
man win found and hii knowledge
of iho nlnco nna who conducted Itns very
limited. When Chief Beckett explained his
mission the follow bccamo moro communica
tive and snid the pluco would bo closed and
iho lights would not ngaln burn.
The oillcors crossed the street to the op
posite corner nnd In the basement found n
gnmbllng outllt. The lights worn biirnlnit nnd
tinpcav.inr-es indicated u bnsty lluhl of Iho
players , who htiduofii given n Up. lu the room
were Uuittibles , n number of chain , nnd evi
dently the place is n resort for the juvenile
players.
To n place conducted by Jonn Adams , four
doors east on N street , thu oniccrs wont. A
crap game wns in full blast , wit it ti large
crowd ot players. Mr. Adams immediately
ordered the gnmos stopped nnd Iho pincu
closed. Ho suys ho will nut reopen.
The olllcors wont cast nN .street mm
found Denver's place In the old Wordemnn
linll closed. Uouver was met on the street
and hnld he and closed , expecting orders to
thnt effect. Ho hopes to Induce Iho council
lo permit thn gambling houses to run by uny-
ing a line of ? 50 nor month.

found , and there was a sunden pock
eting of chips nnd nn edging to the
exit lu tno roar. The place was immediately
closed , and lor the balnnce of the night the
familiar rnlllo of iho ivories was su no reeded
uy a quiet almost unknown thero. The
saloon of Hoithum & Williams was the lust
plnco visited , nnd nothing buta fricudiy gnmo
of high live wns in progress. This completed
the rounds nud ll now roniains to be scon
whether Iho order of the authorities will bo
rospcctod. If nol.rnids and prosecutions will
follow , ns those high in authority nro dolor-
mined to wipe out tbo ovil.
Since the adoption of Councilman Bruce's
resolution by the council , requesting the
mayor to act In Iho matlcr , tbo gamblers
have not boon idle. Ono councilman claims
bo wns approached and promised $ TiUU if ho
would put a stop to thu warfare. A keeper
of ono of the gambling resorts
has said ho would present uny
