A dollar hoarded outside of the
bank is just that much value lost
to the world.?Wheeling News.
Yes, but how mauy poor fel
lows there are to-day who would
have been better off had they
never seen a bank. Good banks
are helpful to the people?bad
banks are a curse to the land.
The New York World tries to
relieve the Democratic party of
the responsibility by saying that
it isnot the Cleveland administra
that has caused the money panic,
but WANT OP CONFIDENCE. We
are inclined to believe the state
ment. What did the Democrat
ic party ever do to inspire any
person with confidence any time?
The ray of light that so many
people thought they saw when
President Cleveland called an
early session of the new Con
gress has vanished. Events
have proved already that the
prosperity of the country and
the fulfillment of the promises
of the Democratic platform are
absolutely incompatible. The
prices of all stocks have been
brought to a lower level during
' the past week than they have
touched in ten years, and there
ha3 been a shrinkage of values
such as was never known before
in so short a time.?X F. Press.
It is idle folly for the Demo
cratic party to say that it is the
Sherman law that has caused
such wide-spread disaster. They
well know that instead of the
Sherman law which provides for
purchasing a certain amount -of
7' silver each month they would
have given the-cormtry-free coin
age. That the true cause of the
tremendona low inflicted upon
the American people i* not the
Sherman law. bnt the Democratic
threat of fees tbade. Under
the Sherman law, Harrsion's ad
ministration waaone that brought
great prosperity. "The dema
gogic bowl against the Sherman
law has lost its effect, and the
responsibility for the tremendous
disasters the nation has endured
in the lastfonr months has been
fixed where it belongs?on the
?free trade Democracy and its in
competent and unpatrlotio Presi
dent"
' THE PEOPlfc SUFFER.
.... c. -
fcHE demagogic
assertion has re
cen 11 y been
made that the
tremendous loss
inflicted upon
1 the nation by the
threat of Demo
cratic free trade
mattered 11111 e
to the masses of
'.be people .since
the sufferers from the shrinkage
in the value of securities and the
paralysis of credit, were mainly
wealthy men. No more flagrant
falsehood was ever uttered.
It is supremely absurd to assert,
as a large number of Democratic
organs and politicians are con
tinually asserting, that there is a
capitalistic "class" in this coun
try. This is not a country of
"classes." In the United States
the employee of to-day is the
employer of to-morrow. Every
one "of the hundreds of thousands
sf working men who owns his
home is a capitalist Every
laborer who has a savings bank
account is a capitalist Every
farmer who owns his farm is a
capitalist. The overwhelming
najority of the American people
ire capitalists, and the number is
sonstantly increasing with the
frowth of population in this Re
tublic.
It is the multitude of small
apltalists?the merchants who
lave risen to the conduct of a
oodest business by skill and
lonorable industry, the manu
acturers whose establishments
,re on a moderate scale and who
imploy but a few hands each,
>ndthe people whose savings are
nvested in securities?that have
>een impoverished. The work
ngiuan in the factory has been
uade poorer by the Democratic
leclaration of war on American
ndustries, which has made it im
possible for his employer to sell
lis goods at a fair profit. The
farmer has been made poorer by
;he entailment of the home mark
et through the lessening of the
ability of the wage earner to buy
his products It is the masses?
the "plain people"?who have
been the victims of the Demo
cratic policy of confiscation and
lestruction. Every factory that
;loses down or restricts its out
put. Is one more item in the rob
bery of the voters by Grover
Cleveland and the party of free
trade.?New York Press.
