GREAT COINAGE DISCUSSION.
Harvey and Hon- Strongly Present
ing the Arguments For and
Against Silver.
Subject of Legislative Virtue Enters
Into the DebateHorr Insists Sil
ver Was Fairly Demonetized
Harvey Denies the
Proposition.
Chioago, July 18. The finanoial de
bate between ex-Congressman R. G.
Horr, of Michigan, now an editorial
writer on tho New York Tribune, and W.
H.Harvey, the free coinage champion,
continues to excite deep interest, and
crowds are daily in attendance. Mr. Har
vey says he expeotB to make good iu this
debate the following propositions:
1. That silver and gold are the money
of the constitution. That the silver dol
lar was the nnit of valne in onr coinage
system in this country from 1792 to 1873,
jist as the yard stick was the measure of
li'iigtb. Ibat gold was measured in this
silver nnit and concurrent ooinage given
to it (gold.) That silver and gold com
bined constituted the legal standard of
valne in this conntry antil 1878. Silver
measured gold; the two together measured
all other property.
2. That the act of 1873 was surrepti
tiously passed.
3. That during the period from 1792
to 1873 the mints were open to the un
limited coinage of both metals into
primary or redemption money, and that
both were treated as such. That daring
that period the people had a right to
have either metal coined into fall legal
tender money, and that the option was
with the debtor to pay in coins of one or
the other metal.
4. That this bimetallio system made
an nnlimited demand for both metals to
be coined into money, increased the de
mand for these metals, and so long as
this law antborized any one to coin
371)4 grains of silver and 23 2-10 grains
of gold into a dollar there, was no one
willing to sell either for less than a dol
lar. 5. That the option to pay in either
metal caused the cheaper of the two
metals to be need, and transferred the
demand from the dearer to the cheaper
metal and restored its relative commer
cial valne. We are called silver men be
cause we are defending the metal that has
been demonetized.
6. That it is to the interest of the
United States to act independently in the
remonetization of silver, at the ratio to
gold of 16 to 1; without waiting for the
action of any other nation.
7. That monometallism oonsists in the
use of the dearer of the two metals to the
exclusion of the other as primary of
redemption money. That monometal
lism is an experiment, on trial for the
first time in the hiBtory of the world, and
began with the period 1873. That it is im
practicable and impossible as a stable
money measurement of values; is not
based on scientific financial principles; is
in the interest of the money lenders, and
against the interest of the property own
ers and laborers.
8. That the gold nnit as the measure
of values, with no oonenrrent ooinage
of another metal to assist it in perform
ing the fnnotions of primary money,
has caused the fall in prices aa com
pared with 1872, when the world's prices
of property were measured in the money
mass of both metals; that all prices of
property and labor have declined accord
ingly as compared with 1872, exoept when
held up relatively by increased demand,
or short supply, or combines and trusts,
or by speoial reasons a fleeting a particular
servioe or property; that the average
price of all prodaotions, exoept gold, will
show that this decline is adjusting itself
to the gold standard, and that when we
include in labor the unemployed and the
time lost by those employed there is a
fall in wages of one-naif, as 00m pared
with 1872; that labor is adjusting itself
to the gold Btandard measurement of
values.
9. That the deoline in prices eonver-
ing a period of twenty-two years has as a
rule made all classes of produotive,fxner-
oantile and manufacturing business un
profitable; that a falling market cov
ering a long period destroyes the pros
pective profits based on oost of pur
chase and production, and a majority of
our most astute business men oan not
avoid failure or loss of capital under
these conditions.
10. That it has worked a hardship and
injury to the debtors, who, unoonsoious
of the cause and thatjeontinnously reduced
the prices of their property, have con
tracted debts during theBe twenty-two
years. That this fall in prices causes a
sacrifice of property to purchase the dol
lars with which to liquidate these debts.
That this has oaused the renewal of debts,
the contraction of new debts to pay old
debts and an enlarged volume of all
debts. That this unjustly takes from a
debtor his property emphasizes the im
portance of a stable money measurement
of values.
11. That in the end no one Is bene
fited by a fall in prices but the money
lender, the owner of money and securi
ties payable in money at fixed inoomes.
12. That the foregoing facts and con
ditions produced by a change in our
money measurement of values will im
poverish the masses of the people, and
points by reason of the disturbances it
will produoe, to the overthrow of the
republic
THIBD Or DISCUSSION.
The third day of the Horr-Harvey sil
ver debate opened at 11 a. m., the late
ness of the starting hour heretofore hav
ing been found inoonvenient in some re
spects. The subject tinder discussion was what
Harvey had characterized in his book as
the "crime of 73," the demonitization sil
ver. After some miscellaneous sparring,
Harvey charged oorruption in the pas
sage of ' the demonetization act. Horr
repudiated the inference that citizens of
the United States were all eorrupt and
none of their women virtnous. Horr de
clared Hist it was not true that every man
had his price. Members of congress were
as honest as the average American citi
zen. He knew whereof he. spoke, for he
had been a member of that body. Horr
took upthe history of demonetization and
proceeded to show the stages through
whioh it passed and the final enactment
was not till after it been before eongress
for nearly three year.
oObbcpt lioiblatubib.
Harvey returned to the attack upon
the honesty of legislature throughout
the country, including eongress and the
Illinois and Colorado legislatures. This
venality, he contended, was sapping the
foundations of the government as it had
destroyed every republic of the past.
Horr again returned to the defense of
the honeBty of the American people. He
Baid that Harvey merely picked out a few
corrupt men and drew from them the
proposition that the people of the nation
were all corrupt. If Harvey had lived in
Job's time, ho would have looked over
that unfortunate man's sores, and gone
out and published throughout the world
that all Chaldea was one immense car
buncle. Horr then, amid laughter, said
that he would return to the question
under discussion and proceeded with the
history of the demonetization act, point
ing out how the bill had been read in full
Beveral times and printed separately
eleven times and twioe in the reports of
the comptroller of the currency. The de
bates on the bill in the senate occupied
sisty-Bix columns of the Congressional
Record. In the report of the committee
it was stated that it had been examined
line by line and word by word and finally
passed. He would show that in so doing
the senate knew what it was about.
hobb's statements disputed.'
Harvey in reply said that Horr would
have to divert from his position when the
proper time came. In point of fact the
bill about which he had been talking was
not the bill finally passed. Judge Kelly,
in presenting j.he bill in the house sai 1 it
was Inere.y-t codification of th6 laws. Iu
response to a question, Judge Kelly re
plied that the bill made no change in the
value of the coins of the nation. In 1872,
when the bill oame up, it was spoken of
as a bill on a dry subject and members
lost interest. It was at that time, as ap
pears from the reoord, that the first dis
closure of the intention to chaugo the
standard to gold was made in a speech by
Hooper. But there was no reason to be
lieve that the speech was actually deliv
ered, but merely printed, or rather it was
read from manuscript and these words
were omitted. But no reference was made
to the demonetization of silver. On the
enrollment of the bill the clause was
omitted which had the effect to limit the
coinage of silver.
HABVEY CiUBGKD WITH MISQUOTING.
Horr, replying, ohnrged that Harvey
misquoted a single sentence, modifying
the context. The reoord Bliowed that the
statement made in the running debate
was not under leave to print. In every
speech referred to by Harvey, the speaker
said that the bill provided for a standard
"in a single metal," instead of as before
in two metals, and that all coins, except
subsidiary coins, should be gold. Horr
spoke of the demonetization of silver by
England in 1816 as the result of experi
ence in the use of a double standard. In
1871 Germany adopted the gold Btandard
and threw out of the market $300,000,000
of silver.
It was this that set the world to con
sidering the silver question, not any gold
bug conspiracy. The finanoial policy of
no great nation was ever dominated by
a conspiracy.
This closed the debate for the day ex
oept the answering of questions by the
disputants propounded by members of
the audience.

RUSTLERS NOT HANGED.
The Four Cattle Thieves Captured by
Vigilantes in Nebraaka Jailed
at Spring-view.
Springview, Neb., Jnly 18. The four
rustlers oaptured by the vigilantes have
been jailed here. Fifteen men have been
out for ten days after these cattle thieves
at big expense, and the only wonder is
that the rustlers were not hung or shot
on sight, 8b about half of the committee
after them were old time vigilantes. The
rustlers denied their crime nntil last
night, at a lonesome place near Ponca
creek, on the Sionx reservation. The
riders rode up under some old cotton
wood trees, tying knots in their lariats
and remarking: "This is a good place,
Eli," whioh brought the rustlers to an
understanding that there was to be a
hanging and that brought them to terms.
The people throughout the country are
up in arms and new vigilance oommittees
have been organized and cattle rustlers
from this on will be hanged.
Omaha Police Reorganised
Omaha, July 18. The ory for munici
pal reform in Omaha, caused generally by

of the polioe foroe nnder Chief White,
whom the commission secured from Chi
cago. Twenty-five political and seotarian
agitators have been discharged and an
ediot issued that policeman must not let
politioal and religious affairs interfere
with the duties of offioe.
THE NATIONALCAPITAL

Washington, Jnly 18. Senator Faulk
ner, chairman of the national Demooratio
congressional committee, denies that any
party of Demooratio orators is to be sent
to the northwest under the auspices of
the oommittee for the purpose of discus
sing the currency question. "I have writ
ten Mr. Hazzard, who was said to have
initiated the movement for the tour,"
said the senator, "telling him that the con
gressional committee could have nothing
to do with the scheme. There is no cam
paign , this year and the oommittee does
not feel oulled on to send orators through
the country to discuss any question. If
any desire to go out as individuals and
add reset ths people, they have a perfeet
right to doeo, bnt it is not proper that
the time of the congressional oommittee
should be wed as proposed."

Young Tribolot, shot by the Mexican

latter says his brother has valuable
landed interests in Mexico just south of
Nogales, and for years past oertain Mexi
cans have undertaken to get control of
this land. It is possible, he thinks, that
his brother was not implicated in the
robbery and that his name was conveni
ently conpled therewith by influential
Mexicans in order to get him out of the
way.
Young Tribolet is the youngest of
seven brothers who came to the south

Espanola, July 10. Last week was the
wettest in several years. Rain nearly
every day and alfalfa and all kinds of
vegetables on the keen jump. The rain
gave a good deal of trouble to the D, A
R. G. in the Embudo canon. But the
principal damage done was on the Ojo
Calieute creek, where a cloudburst just
about cleaned out the valley to bedrock.
Crops and orchards were washed out, and
the hail, which was as large as hen eggs,
destroyed what the Hood missed, and
knocked every pain out of the windows
