Official Paper of County.
The Germans and Silver.
The Dyersville Commercial, whose
editor is a German by nativity and
familiar with the character and the
habits of thought of the Teutonic
race, explains why it that German
Americans are opposed to the siDgle
gold and in favor of the bimetallic
money standard. It says:
The Dubuque Herald is trying to
educate the shrewd Yankees, Irish
and others on the financial question
which is now interesting the people
of our country as much and more
than the tariff question did a few
years ago. The Germans the Heruld
is holding by patting them on the
back and telliDg them that they are
all right and will stand by the single
gold standard and "sound money,"
and in the moantime it sets them up
as an example for the other national
ities to take pattern from. The Her
ald make a scapegoat of the Germans
to advocate its single gold standard
and basely misrepresents the most
''Intelligent portion of that nationality.
They are all in favor of "sound rnoi
ey" it Is true, but no intelligent Ger
man claims that gold coin alone is
sound money but he claims that all
primary money issued by the United
States government is sound money.
Let this primary money be gold, sil
ver, nickel, copper, or paper money
[commonly called greenbacks] and
the Germans will call it "sound mon
ey" and will exchange their products
for the same.
But the Germans do not think that
secondary money is "sound money.''
Among secondary money they claim
such as national bank notes. It is
with such money that our country is
flooded at present. This kind of
money is too dear for the farmer, and
makes his hogs and other products
too cheap so that he can hardly pay
the interest on his debts. The Ger
mans know full well that the people
of the United States are taxed to pay
interest on those government bonds,
which the bondholders hold free of
taxation, and upon the strength of
which the bondholders issue their na
tional bank currency, upon which
the borrower must again pay
interest.
The Germans are a hard working
people and will thrive where many
others would not, but they know full
well that a man can never succeed
under the present financial policy of
our government, and next November
they will vote for the free and unlim
ited coinage of silver and gold as it
used to be from the days of Washing
ton down to 1878.
Boies and Morgan.
The Inter Ocean of yesterday says
all the talk at central democrati
headquarters in Chicago is for Boies
or Morgan for the head of the national
ticket. Boies, of Iowa, it is said
would unite the friends of silver
throughout the west, and the silver
men of the south would rally to Sena
tor Morgan of Alabama. It is argued
that the silver movement will receive
little support in the east, therefore, it
is not worth while to go there for a
candidate. The Chicago silver men
claim to feel certain that their wing
of the party will control the coming
convention in everything-from organ,
ganization up to platform and noini
nations. They say the two-thirds rule
will be wiped out and a majority rule
prevail. In point of ability and per
sonal character both the distinguished
men named are exceptionally strong,
Boies is easily the peer of any public
man in the west and the same may be
said of Morgan in the south. lie has
long been a commanding figure iu the
United Htates senate, honored and
trusted by his colleagues in that body.
—Des Moines News.
How the laborer is farm- under the
gold standard he already knows.
How he will fare under the iadeliuit3
maintainance of that standard is
suggested by the Hazzard circular,
issued on behalf of London capitalists
-to New York Bankers in 1862. The
civil war was then in progress, and in
his circular Mr. Hazzard said: "Slav
ery is likely to be abolished by the
war power and chattle slavery de
destroyed. This, I and my European
friends are in favor of, for slavery is
but the owning of labor, and carries
with it the care of the laborer, while
the European plan, led on by
England, is capital control of labor
by controlling wages. This can be
done by controlling the money."
Dubuque Telegraph.
The Des Moines Leader, as a dem
ocratic sheet, has been and is simply
a bunco steerer for the republican
party. Henry Stivers, its former own
er and publisher, from a delegate to
the republican state convention made
his first appearance as a democrat
with his ownership of the Leader the
only difference between his democ
racy and republicanism was in the
name. The present publishers are no
better. Strauss, though a democrat'
gives its editorial management to his
partner, Dawson, who is a republican
and was an editorial writer on the
Register, and who utters no better
demooracy for the Leadert han he
did for the Register. It's sham
democracy out and out.
ARRAIGNS CARLISLE.
Gov. Altgeld Writes an Open Letter
To the Secretary oi The
Treasury.
In Which he Tears to Pieces the Re
cent Address by Carlisle on the
Money Situation—Character
izing That Spc-ech as filled
With Sophistry.
Secretary Carlisle lias been answer
ed by Gov. Altgeld. Iu a pointed
open letter the governor replies to
the address ou the money question
which Secretary Carlisle recently de
livered ut the auditorium in Chicago.
Gov. Altgeld's letter is as follows:
A t( a^her should be willing to an.
swer questions. At. the close of Mr.
Carlisle's speech, a number of gentle
men arose and asked for further in
formation, but he turned liis back
and slipped off the stage, aud, by di
rection of his managers, the question
ers were hustled out by policemen.
He could have made liiuiself very in
teresting* on a number cf points
which he persistently iguoiel. In
1878, when discussing the money
question in congress, he expressed his
convictions in the following lan
guage:
I shall not enter into an examina
tion of the causes which have com
bined to depreciate the relative value
of silver and to appreciate the value
of gold since 1873, but I am one of
those who believe that they are tran
sient and temporary in their nature,
and when they have passed away or
been removed by the separate or un
ited efforts ot the nations most deep
ly interested in the subject the old
ratio of actual and relative value will
be reestablished on a firmer basis
than ever. I know that the world's
stock of precious metals is none too
large and 1 see no reason to appre
hend that it. will ever become so.
Mankind will be fortunate indeed, if
the annual production of gold and
silver coin shall keep pace with the
annual increase of population, com
merce and industry. According to
my view of the subject, the conspir
acy which seems to liav6 been formed
here and in Europe to destroy, by
legislation and otherwise, from three
sevenths to one-half of the metallic
money of the world is the most gi
gantic crime of this or any other age.
The consummation of such a scheme
would ultimately entail more misery
upon the human race than all the
wars, pestilence and famiues that
ever occurred iu the history of the
world. It means instauteous destruc
tion of half the movable property of
the world, including horses, ships,
railroads aud all other appliances fur
carrying on commerce while it would
be felt more sensibly at the moment,
would not produce anything like the
prolonged distress and disorganiza
tion of society that must inevitably
result from the permanent annihila
tion of one-half of the metallic mon
ey of the world.
CHANGE OF IIKART.
It will be seen that this language is
clear and emphatic and has none of
the sophistry and pettyfogging about
it that are found in his Chicago
speech. His awful prediction made
in 1S78, came to pass. He not only
saw his own prophecy fulfilled, but
he saw the misery of his country be
come even greater than he had pre
dicted. Finding that his views had
been correct, he continued to hold
them until he entered Mr. Cleveland's
cabinet, when in some mysterious
manner, there was a change of heart,
but for some reason he seems unwil
ling to talk about it. There are two
other members of the cabinet, Hoke
Smith of Georgia, and Herbert of
Alabama, who like Carlisle, had made
their voices heard for nearly a life
time in demanding the restoration of
silver, and in denouncing the great
conspiracy that struck it down and
strange to say, when these two men
entered Cleveland's cabinet, they un
derwent a chauge of heart, and like
Carlisle, they avoid talking about it.
When Saul of Tarsus, saw a great
light and changed his views, he was
anxious to tell all the world about it
but these three statesmen seem to be
ashamed to discuss the manner of
their couversion. Why did not Car
lisle throw a little light on this ques
tion?
fc'econd—All of these men now de
nounce those people who are opposed
to the single gold standard as be'ni
scoundrels aud lunatics, yet they are
only following the doctrines which
Carlisle aud company preached. Are
we t.hen to infer that Mr. Carlisle and
his two cabinet associates were
scoundrels and lunatics until tliejr got
to be old ineu, aud that then the
tinsel of a cabinet position not only
made them honest, but gave them
brains? If not then how are we to
know which end of their career was
honest, intelligent and patriotic? For
in the absence of any explanation
some of us may think that they were
honest and patriotic when in the
vigor of their manhood they were
standing by a wronged people, and
that it is the latter end of their car
eer that is destitute of honesty, intel
ligence or patriotism. Carlisle should
have told us.
Third—Mr. Carlisle should have ex
plained why it was that for 200 years
gold and silver held the market ratio
of about lOi to 1. The ratio fixed by
law was 15 to 1, in some countries 15
to 1, in most countries and for a while
10 to 1 in our country. In other
words, the market ratio, as shown by
the tables, remained practically the
same as the statutory ratio during all
that time. If the two metals cannot
stand together, how does it happen
that they did so without serious flue
tuation for 200 years notwithstanding
the fact that the annual production
of each metal varied greatly from
time to time?
Fourth—If only one of the metals
can be a standard and a measure of
the value of things, and if a "com
bined standard of both gold and sil
ver is as impossible as it is to have
two yard sticks of different lengths
why was it that some of the greatest
financiers of the world, and particu
larly Baron Rothschild, stated in 1869
that it was the sum of the two metals
taken together which formed the
measure of the value of things? No
matter which metal might for a time
predominate, nevertheless the sum of
the two taken together was the meas
ure of the value of all property. If
the same countries had stricken
down gold by law and destroyed it
for monetary uses, and made silver
the sole standard, would not silver
have gone up, and the purchasing
power of gold gone down?
Fifth—Mr. Carlisle should have ex
plained why it was that iu every
country where silver was stricken
down it was done by the arbitrary
act of government and that neither
commerce nor business had anything
to do with it.
CALLS IT A CRIME.
Sixth—It is a fundamental law
ignized by all gold standard finan
ciers, except recent converts, that
when the volume of money in the
world is reduced the selling price of
all property and commodities goes
down correspondingly, therefore wip
ing out by law nearly half the money
of the world held to reduce the sel
ling price of commodities proportion
ately. Aud inusmucli as the debts
were not reduced, as interest was not
reduced, and as taxes were not re
duced, does not Mr. Carlisle think
even now, just as he did in 1873, that
a great crime was committed against
the entire debtor class aud against
the producing class by bringing about
a condition of affairs by law which
compelled the debtor, the producer
and the laborer to sell twice as much
property or labor as were formerly
necessary to get the same amount of
money?
Seventh—If prices are so reduced
that it takes everything the debtor
can get together to pay his fixe.d
charges, and everything the laborer
can get together to buy a little coarse
clothing and plain food for his family
can either the debtor or the laborer
spend much money for other articles?
And if he oannot, than must that
not result iu the destruction of what
we once called our great home mar
ket? If this is destroyed, so that our
factories and Industries are unable to
dispose of their production?, must
they not shut down aud throw labor
out of employment? Is not that ex
actly what has happened in this
country?
Eighth—As the laborer prospers
most when there is a large demand
for the articles he creates, does it not
necessarily follow that, until there is
a rise in prices, so that the debtor
class and the producing class can
again do large miscellaneous buying
there is no hope for the laborer?
Ninth—As there cannot be a gener
al rise in prices without an# increased
volume of currency, must not the
present paralysis and stagnation con
tinue in the world until the volume of
money is again restored to what it
was before silver was stricken down?
Tenth—There are in the United
States over 9,000 banks including
national, state and private. The
comptroller of the currency, one of
Mr. Carlisle's assistants, received re
ports from these banks, showing the
total amount of money of every kind
that each bank had on July 11, 1895.
From this report it appears that there
were in round numbers only $127,000,
000 of gold in all of the banks of the
United States. This was all of the
available gold in this country. There
were about $100,000,000 in the treas
ury at that time, but this is not avail
able. Mr. Carlisle did not refer to
those figures which are known to be
accurate. But instead he cited the
figures given out by the director of
the mint, also one of his assistants, in
which it is claimed that there are
about $600,000,000 of gold in this
country. Mr. Carlisle must know
that these figures are incorrect, and
that the tables given out by the di
rector of the mint on this point are
worthless, because it appears from
his report for 1892 that he assumed
that every dollar put in circulation
since 1872, in this country
is still in circulation, exept
where record was made
of its exportation, aud that ho has
made no allowance for the money
that was carried over the northern
boundary and our southern bound
ary for twenty-four years, nor for the
money carried back by Chinese dur
ing that tijje, nor for the gold coin
used in the arts and not reported
during that time, nor for all that was
lost, nor for all that was carried
across the ocean iu the pockets of our
people during all those years. Yet
the director says in his report of 1891
that during the Paris exhibition tiie
total sum spent by our people
abroad in one year was over
ninety million dollars, ty hy does Mr.
Carlisle use figures that he knows
are incorrect aud are manifestly given
out only for the purpose of misleading
the American people on the question
as to the amount of money they have
iu circulation?
THE- BOND CONTRACT.
Eleventh—A year ago Mr. Cleve
land sent for his former law partner
and close friend, and, through him,
Cleveland and Carlisle made a secret
contract with another friend, who
was a former client of Mr. Cleveland,
by which that friend and his associate
speculators were enabled to make
nine or ten million dollars out of the
government in a few weeks, on a
small bond transaction. And the
reason given for this extraordinary
and even criminal procedure was
that the speculators and sharks of
Wall street had agreed to protect the
government against the gold raids
until the following November. That
is, the wealthiest, the most enterpris
ing, the most powerful, the most in­
dustrious and the thriftiest nation of
the globe paid tribute to a small
band of speculators for protection.
And when the month of November
arrived, these speculators withdrew
their protection, and then the gov
ernment proceeded to issue another
$100,000,000 of bonds, thus increasing
the burden's of our people. Now, Mr.
Carlisle might have expatiated on
this, and pointed out to the American
people the lofty character of the
statemansliip.involved in these trans
actions for strange to say, many of
our intelligent people are utterly un
able to comprehend it. While Mr.
Carlisle does not seem to have been a
success in the capacity of bunco
steerer among the laboring men of
Chicago, there are many points upon
which he could be very interesting,
aud I would suggest that they brir
him back and let him talk about
matters in which he is at home.
[Signed] JOHN P. ALTGELD.
Carlisle's Inconsistency.
The administration press of Iowa
and other states is reproducing the
part of Secretary Carlisle's Covington
speech in which he denied that he
had ever favored or voted for the
free coinage of silver at 16 to 1 or any
other ratio. The reproduction of
the extract makes it necessary to say
that when the secretary made his
tateuient to the people of Covington
he forgot a letter which he wrote in
1890, when he was a member of the
United States senate. In that year,
when the measure was before the
the senate, he voted against the
Sherman purchase bill, and this so
(•ffeuded the Farmers' Alliance of
Kentucky lhat it. passed resolutions
criticising him. Thereupon, fearing
the consfquences, a gentleman
named Smiili, a member of the Ken
tucky legislature, a supporter of
Carlisle, aud who, through the
latter's iuflueiice, has s:nce been ap
pointed fi district attorney, wrote to
the senator and asked him to explain
his vote. Carlisle complied. lie
wrote as requested, aud bis letter
was published in the paper of which
Mr. Siu:tli was the editor at Gib
raltar, Ky., on Ihe 26ih of January,
1890.
The epistle is as follows:
Hon. W. M. Smith, Mayfield, Ky:
DEAR SIR—Your favor of the 13th
inst., is lust received. Every demo
crat in the senate voted against the
silver bill as it was finally amended
and reported by the conference com
mittee, we believed it was worse than
the existing law. If the Farmer's
Alliance of Graves county believe
that this republican measure, which
substantially stops the coinage of
silver dollars after one year, is better
than the democratic law of 1878, they
are of course entitled to their opinion,
but I do not agree with them.
When the original house bill was
under consideration in the senate, I
voted to amend it so as to provide for
the free and unlimited coinage of
silver dollar, and that amendment
was adopted. The house, however,
refused to agree to this amendment,
and then a conference committee
was appointed, which struck out free
coinage, and this is the bill I voted
against. I send you by mail all three
of the bills. Yours truly,
J. G. CARLISLE.
To satisfy the agricultural element
of liis state and to obtain its support,
Carlisle explicitly declared in this
letter that he voted to amend the
Sherman bill "so as to provide for
the free and unlimited coinage of the
silver dollar." Yet five years later
he assured the people of Covington
aud the country that he never voted
for the free and unlimited coinage of
silver. Whether he told an untruth
in his letter to Smith, or deliberately
falsified iu his address at Covington
is a matter upon which Carlisle
should write another letter of
explanation.—Dubuque Telegraph.
The Senate the 23d voted against
any more bond issues by the president
and secretary of the treasury by vote
of
3-1
to 20. That our readers may
know who are in favor of giving the
president and his secretary unlimited
authority to bond the country iu the
interest of the money lenders of Eu
rope we pubhsli the names and the
party to which each claims to belong:
Mr. Butler renewed his motion to
lake up the bill pruliiliitiiig the issue
of interest bearing bonds. The mo
tion was carried as follows:
Yt-as! Republicans—Brown, Dubois,
llnnsbrougli, Mitchell (Or.), Perkins,
Pettigrew, Piitciiard, Shoup, Teller,
Thurston, Warren and Wilson, 13.

Oarnagie, of Scotland platform, "to

And would this be a hummer for the
Cleveland democrats aud .the Sher

President Jackson, in his famous
message vetoing the bill to re-charter
the United States bank, warned the
people against the danger of organi
zation of the banks of the country.
He said In part "This boon conceded
to the state banks, though not unjust
in itself, is most odious: because it
does not measure out equal justice to
the high and low, the rich and poor.
To the extent of its practical effect it
is a bond of union among the bank
ing establishments of the nation, erect,
ing them into an interest sepurate
from that of the people, ard its nec
essary tendency is to unite the bank
of the United States and the state
banks in any measure which may be
thought conducive to tlnir common
interest." lfih organization of the
banking institutions of President
Jackson's day was a dangerous thing,
how much more so the must be at the
present time in view of tli fact that
tbey have increased both in number
and capital invested many fold, and
therefore in influence aud power.
Aud they are organized at the present
time, and act together like a great
army, therefore the warning of Old
Hickory is worthy of consideration.—

EDISON AND BELL MEET.
Notable Invontorg Come Together at tho
New York Show.
Thomas A. Edison aild Alexander
Graham Bell shook hands the other day
at Grand Central palace at the national
electrical exposition in New York city.
Few persons recognized in the modest
man who came through the turnstiles
at 3:30 o'clock and dressed like an in
telligent workingman the inventive
genius who lias commanded the homage
of Paris, Berlin and London as well as
America. At the same moment Alex
ander Graham Bell, dressed with im
maculate neatness, hair combed from,
a broad, intelligent forehead, was hold
ing a Jelephone receiver to each ear. He
laughed pleasantly as the roar of Ni
agara falls reached him, and as his sides
shook with laughter he slowly looked
upward and beheld Thomas A. Edison.
They grasped hands like, war veterans.
'It is the meeting of my life," said
Mr. Bell.
"Come and see the iluoroscope," was
Mr. Edison's answer, and the two in
ventors went within a mystic shrine
and remained for hours.
No one was permitted to see the ex
periments with the iluoroscope. Mr.
Edison said the new instruments will
enable visitors to look at their bands
and see the bones or foreign substances
in them, as well as those of such other
exposed objects as might be presented
for demonstration under its opera-,
tion.
