They Are Overwhelm ingly for Silver. United for the White Metal Says Senator Harris. Thinks the Demonetization of Sliver Was Brought About by the Greed of Capitalists. By Telegraph to The Republican. . Memphis, Term., April 26. In an in ' terview here today Senator Harris, when asked, "What ia your opinion as to the dominance of the free silver sentiment in the south and west in re lation to the campaign of 1896?" re plied : "The utilization and rehabilitation of silver to its position as a money metal and. a money of ultimate redemption and in connection with gold, as the regulator of volume or amount of that thine called money, is overwhelmingly strong in the south and west, and in my opinion pught to be strong and con clusive everywhere. L "If pebple would recognize the un deniable fact that money is purely the creature of law, ft is now, always was and always must be just what the law of its own country makes it, and when it passes beyond the limits of your own Country it is not money, but im mediately becomes a commodity which goes Upon the market at its market value, just as your bale of cotton, hogs bead of tobacco or bushel of wheat goes upon the foreign market at its value. I "Now, as to the question a9 to whether the United States should es tablish its financial policy in conformity with the financial policies of other commercial countries, or a policy which will meet the necessities and conveni ence of its own 70,000,000 of people. I here with of our nice men's want to suggest that I got up the sta tistics in the latter part of the year 1893, showing the results of our foreign and interstate commerce for twenty preceding years. The balance of trade with other countries was against us only four of the twenty years, and ag gregating for the four years, less than $70,000,000, while for the sixteen other years of the twenty the balance of trade was in our favor averaging over $100, 000,000 a year. "While I would be glad to have an international agreement to utilize all the gold and alKthe silver of the world at an agreed ratio, I am ready to establish a financial system for the United States, which does recognize both met als and makes them legal tender for all purposes and admits them to the same rights of coinage. Up to 1873 gold and silver held their respective places as the money metals of the world, but in 1873 the capitalistic influences, not only of the United States, but of the commercial world, decided to double the purchasing power of their capital by demonetizing one or the other of the money metals, no matter which, so that demonetizing either one on the volume or amount of money would be reduced one half, which would double the purchasing power of every remaining dollar, ''Capitaias leisure, capital has in fluence, capital has power, but, unfor tunately, capital has no conscience. Capital had silver demonetized when 412) grains of the standard silver dol lar was worth on the markets of the World 3 cents more than a gold dollar-, and capital and its cohorts are now rampant in urging the adoption of the gold standard and reducing everythinz to that gold standard."

Japan's reply to the powers has not yet been made. Intimations from the most reliable sources here state that the reply will not contain any reces sion from what Japan regards as righu fuljy her due.
