I W MtMxnd ispuUisbedon Friday morning of each wcekat Rising Sun, Cecil Co., Maryland, —BY — E. E. EWING & SONS. Independent in politics and all other subjects. SI.OO A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. Friday, Aug. 25, 1893. THE DIRECT ISSUE. We demand the free and unlimited coin age of gold and silver at the present ratio of 16 to i. We demand that this amount of gold and silver shall be supplemented with a full legal tender paper money in sufficient volume to maintain equitable prices. We demand that all money shall be issued by the government direct to the people and that all money so issued shall be a full legal tender for all debts private or public. Aggregate wealth is power and is dangerous in the hands of the few as the aggregation of armed men con trolled by a few. In Ohio the democrat and republi can clubs meet at the same time en tertain each other and march together. The clubs of the two old parties in Cecil might take a leaf out of the McKinley state book. During these tight money times in order to build up a large cash reserve, banks everywhere decline to discount any but gilt-edged paper and that only for good depositors who keep nice accounts. Chronic renewal paper is not the thing for these times- New music is heard in the manu facturing towns; it is the sob of hungrv women and children and the execrations of idle men. The granaries of the farmers aro bursting with wheat which they are feeding to the cows and hogs for want of a market, while millions starye in en forced idleness. Republicans impress their ideas on the finance committee Voorhees votes with them.—New York Press. Something more potent than “re publican ideas” impress such old tough hided democrats as Voorhees. Tell that to the marines. There is a $5,000,000 lobby round the capitol that is a powerful impressor. The fight which is now going on will not end till gold is demonetized. In some respects it resembles the slavery war. The slave power com menced that war which could not be stopped till slavery was overthrown. The gold power commenced the pre sent financial war which will not cease till gold lies prone in the dust. The Sherman law is only the Bull Run of the campaign. Appomattox js in the not distant future. A Strange Sight. To-day old gray headed republi cans who were eyer proud of their battles under ‘Old Abe,” as they loved to call that famous commoner behold their party arranging itself under the leadership of a democratic President, and taking its orders from a family of English bankers. It is no wonder tbat many of them stand in a kind of daze aud ask them selves “where they are at.” Old Party Policy. The republican party policy is gold money only and national bank note currency without the legal tender function, and a very high tariff and a whiskey and beer tax to raise revenue. The deficiency to be raised by tLe issue of bonds. The democrat party policy, any thing to get into office and spend the public money lavishly. Its last congress voted itself an extra SIOO a month salary, making the yearly salary of members 86200 in place of $5,000, and money rising in its purchasing power steadi ly! In order to continue these ‘‘policies’’ vote for the old parties. Don’t Tell It. That during all the terrible years when republicans had charge at Washington they never dared to furnish congressmen with clerks to do the work the congressmen were selected to do. But as soon as the dear old democrat party got on top the salary grab promptly went through.—Tom Watson’s People's Party Paper. [lt was not a bad day’s work when the republican party was put out, for it is owned entirely by Wall street, but it was a bad job when the democrat party was put in the place.] Cheerful. Our friends of the Press are of a very cheerful turn of mind whose liquid murmur flows smoothly on thusly. “Confidence in the future is what we need and nobody but an idiot can believe tbat this great country is go ing to fail to be a great country.” “Confidence” would not get the Press in mail notches on Wednesday cvenines, but work and business sense must be used. Less “con fidence” in a lot of financial and political scoundrels, and a good deal more of ancestral business thinking and independent American reliance iB what this degenerate generation need, and not “confidence” in rascals which they are banking on so largely. The man who puts his trust in “con fidence” is the idiot. THE CT OTHR/ZEsT JLTj : FHIEAT, JLTJO-TJST 25, 1893. The Conspiracy Developing. Reform in our financial sj'slem stands at the head of all other reforms which an ad vancing civilization demands. This is acknowledged by writers of every shade of thought, who discuss business questions, or more technically speaking, economic ques tions, except those who delight to indulge in utopian speculations which may become practical a century hence. We have reached a point when the tyrants, of the money power are contesting the peo ples’ rights to a free financial system. The area on which this battle is at present being tried is the floor of congress. The tyrants of the money power hold possession of ground they have strongly fortified, and are using diplomacy, bribery and the old superstitions of finance, to consolidate their power. Their plan of campaign has developed their line of battle which is to first, expel silver as a money metal. That accomplished, the government and people are left with thirteen thousand tons or more of the metal on their hands. The daily papers, which are the false heralds of the money tyrants would receive orders, as soon as the silver purchase law was repealed, to proclaim that “confidence” had been restored, that bus. ness was reviving, that panic stricken peo ple who had drawn from the banks their money ($180,000,000 within the last 60 days) and hoarded it were again reluming it, and the hanks were beginning to discount freely; mills were starting up, &c., &c. This might he all false, but what care the monopoly papars?. The movement in the meantime in con gress will be to give the national banks enlarged facilities for providing “business” with more currency, which will be an issue to the full auiount of the face value of theii bonds, and ihe abolition of the one per cent tax on their circulation. This haying been accomplished and silver demonetized, the most natural thing to do will be to sell the thousands of tons of silver in government yaults at auction, for gold, to “sustain the credit of the government,” With this move the old efforts would he renewed of calling in the greenbacks, the silver certificates and legal tenders, amounting in all to some eight hundred million dollars and funding them into forty year gold bonds bearing two and a-half or three per cent interest, to he used by the national banks as a “basis for circulation,” This is the financial system the money tyrants are leaving no stone unturned to secure and fasten oil the country. A. more galling system of wage or industrial slavery has never been fixed on any people under the most despotic nations of Europe or Asia, than that now being engineered for the United States. Let us examine the condition more care fully. About six hundred millions of gov ernment bonds are now outstanding, due in 1907, drawing 4 per cent interest. About eight hundred millions more would beadded to the public debt, making in all in the neighborhood of fourteen hundred millions of a public debt. A combined effort would he made by the money aristocracy to refund the 4 per cent bonds into.long time, low interest bearing obligations, with the pre mium added, (the premium on these bonds is 121 per cent), to correspond with the issues that the funded greenbacks, silver certificates and legal tenders represented. This scheme pppemnmaled we would have but one money, goid. None pfher would be acknowledged in law to be a full legal tender. National bank notes would supply the only currency known, and they sre not now and never would be a legal lender. Every debt contracted, pstional, state, city, corporation and mortgage on land could be a gold debt, payable, principal and interest, at the option of the holder, in gold, and the debts and gold too mostly in possession of the Loudon and other European dew hankers. These money tyrants haye the President aad his Cabinet in their hands; they have the machinery of the two old parties iD their hands ; and Ihe majority of the leading nun of the two Houses of congress under their control. They haye virtually the entire daily press of the country subsidized or they own it outright; and the old, most influen tial religious journals, odd agricultural mag azines and industrial periodicals am either actively aidiug their cause or assisting it by .silence. This is not an exaggerated statement of the dangerous situation which now confronts the people of this nitioo, who slumber like the five foolish yirgins of Ihf parable. The national banks would be complete masters of every dollar of money in use, They would have it in their power to contract and ex pand at their pleasure; to put prices up or down as best contributed to their interest. They could and would coutrol the stock and produce gambling of the Boards of Trade, Chambers of Commerce, as (iiay now dp, and every gigantic species of speculation. And above and over the national hanks would stand the foreign holders of the gold debts of the country, It is estimated that three or four billions of such debt are now held by them. With such a financial cygtpm bound on the weailh producers of this coun try thtir condition would be deplorable indeed. And we are at the very threshold of just such a condition. A vassalage under the tyranny of money that avarice before never even dreamed of. i Eor thirty years the arch enemies of man kind have been working and planuing day and night to coosojidale this money empire, and are nearer now to iue consummation of their devilish hopes than ever before If bribery can accomplish its completion money will not he withheld, if mendacity on the part of their newspapers can avail they will lie without stint or compunction. Let the people awake, arouse, before it is forever too late ! Strength aiul Health. If you are not feeling strong and healthy, try Electric Bitters.

Jacob Tome, Harvey Rowland, S. P. Everist and forty-three other citizens of Port Deposit and Rising Sun, including bankers, business men, mechanics and laborers, and thoroughly representative of the community, asking for the repeal of the silver purchase clause of the Sherman law, for the reason that it is absolutely necessary to avert further disaster, and that it is the duty of the national Legislature to do everything in its power to bring about such a restoration of confidence. The therefore, earnestly urge their Senators and Representatives in Congress to advocate the repeal of the silver purchase clause of the Sherman law, with no substitute of any kind whatever at this session of Congress, and the appointment of an expeit comrnis sion to consider and recommend a scientific plan of currency, based on the experience of other countries and adequate to the require ments of a great commercial nation. It is noticeable that this and similar petitions are all urged by bankers and “business men,” whatever the latter term may mean, but they never attempt to explain how the “Sherman law” is responsible for the want of “confidence.” The facts, however, contradict the assumption of the petitioners who attribute the loss of “con fidence” to the “Shermao law.” The peo. pie have so much “confidence” in the money of that law that they take it out of Ihe banks and hold it iu their own possession. This looks more like a want of confidence in the banks than in the law or the money. What the hanks want is the destruction of Sherman law money and all other kiiids except their credit money. This the people can’t hoard because it is a phantom and invisible. The funniest part of this bankers’ peti tion, however, is asking congress to appoint a commission of experts to search foreign countries for a “scientific plan of currency, based on the experience ot other countries.” If these petitioners were wise enough and learned enough to petition for the repeal of a financial law, they ought to have known that no country on the round globe has such a law. There is no financial law based on scientific principles. Aud there never will be while the gullible people permit Roths child and his Hebrew family to control the finances of every country with a handful of gold, which they use as a gambler does loaded dice, City bankers are paying 3 per cent pre mium in gold for this Sherman law currency which our Cecil county petitioners assert causes a want of confidence. Thete is a hit of satire in Hndibras which our “bankers, business men,” etc., etc., of Cecil ought to paste iu their hats. It is this— “ Lest men suspect your tale untrue. Keep probability iu view.” There is no avenue of escape but to leave the parly. People flatter themselves that they can cure the evils complained of, that the party can be reformed by selecting “good men.” As well might the saw rise against the man who useth it, The leaders of a party are also the drivers of the party. If the leaders are temporarily overcome thev block all progress and demoralize the machinery of the party. They quote the party traditions and denouoce, misrepresent and defame every honest man who is placed to the fore. go among Ihe people to deceive and mislead, nor rest night or day till they again are placed in control, They will join the opposite party and help it to gain power in order to bripg their own party into disfavor with Ihe too easily deluded people in their efforts to displace honest men who have been placed at the head. The leaders of the two old parties are mak ing common cause against every new organ ization a long suffering and outraged people attempt to form, No falsehood is too great, no infamy 100 diabolical to practice to bring the People’s party into disfavor with tho masses. The corporations and millionaires pogring money into the bribery fund to corrupt the representatives pf the people, who have been sent io legislate for them under old party organizations. There is no prospect, or hope of easting off the yoke of the old parties but to break it! When will the honest, well inlenticned people realize this, who groaa under thp burden? of slavery these old parly methods have east upon them ? Debts created by misrepresentation and falsehood represent stolen pro perty which should be restored to the rightful owners. All such debts 89 are now represented in government bonds, watered railroad apd other natural monopoly stocks represent stolen property, stolen from the people, the return of which should be and eyentnally will be demanded by them, Repudiation pf tjipse bogus debts is the only way such property can be restored to its rightful owner. Government debts of the whole world are of this class of stolen property and thsy are largely in the hands of those who have paid little or nothing for them. By this class of debts the wealth producing industrial class of the world are enslaved, and they are discussing and investigating prepara lory to final repudiation. I'iip panic now raging is largely the result of fictitious debt. Debt foundered on watered stocks and “credit ” Debt for tyljick the people have received nothing tn return, qustiee demands its liquidation by tLe law wbiub restores stolen property.

Tbe prohibition party is having a family quarrel all of its own. The narrow heads, the turbulent zealots of the party who mean to either rule or ruin, are waging a terrifio war against the more sensible portion on ! what they call “dominant issue.” The dominant issuites are riotously delighted with the opportunity to assail their more practical and less theoretical friends who are disposed to try the State control or South Carolina plan of abolishing licensed saloons. They fairly shout their theoretic principles with plentiful lack of results, and hiss contempt at the Voice for its practical advice to try the method of abolishing the saloons by State control. The “pure and simples” will hear none of this, and shout at the Voice like the cop persmiths of Ephesfa at I’aul. If these noisy zealots don’t make a Kilkenny cat business of their party it will be no fault of theirs. Had it not been for the Voice’s enterprise and management, the probability is there would have been no prohibi tion party today. And perhaps this would have been a fortunate eircum stance for the prohibition cause. The party as it is being run by a lot of jealous “I am holier than thous” is a hinderance rather than a help to the cause. If the Voice is pushed out or drops the party it will instantly fall dead as a stone, and then the principle would be engrafted with other reform measures and carried forward with them. The Voice occu . pies an excellent field for a broad guage daily reform paper, but can 1 never achieve much hemmed in by a little band of narrow minded, micro scopic bigots. No More “Phantom” Money. Tbe past three months should have convinced every one that law made money is sure soon or late to end in ruin. Tbe above is from the head of a leading editorial in the Philadelphia Press. We wonder if the Press be lieves that the people don’t know that bank credit money is “phantom” money. The money the law makes is the only real money that any nation has or can have. The desper ate mendacity of the daily gold ring paper is growing into lunacy. The business that is going up like smoke has been built on “phantom” bank credit. Had it been built on law made money it would have stood Every panie is traced to “phantom” bank credit which had unsurpassed the place of “law made money.’’ Tbe people show their appreciation of, and faitli in, the United States “law made money” by drawing it out of the banks and keeping it in their own possession. They never were known to hoard apy bank made money or phantom money. When the old wild cat state bank money was abroad which represented the bank phantom money, as soon as a paDie started they ran with it to the banks to get it “redeemed.” but the “law made money” they are locking up. So much for the press’ silly effort to fooi the public. When a panic starts the people run to get the “law made money’’ out of the bank. They used to run to put the batik made money in. “The Greatest Robber on Barth.” Under the above caption The Voice enumerates the great robbers, as claimed to be by different parties. The Socialists tell us tbe Capitalists are the greatest; the free-silver advo cates that the Wall street robbers are the greatest, the Populists that the monopolies are the robbers; the Democrats that the protective tariff is the villain. Denying the claim of all these to supremacy in the robber business, The Voice presents the “drunk traffic” as unquestionably entitled to tbe prize. Here is where The Voice and all the philosophers of that school fall into a gjave error. The “drunk traffic” is the chief instrument in the hands of ail these stuidy robbers by which they accomplish their purpose. With it they debauch the politicians of the nation, pollute its ballot box and defy its law?. They use the “drink traffic” to fill law making bodies with their instruments and seat on the judicical bench their creatqres. The Populists propose to vanish the power behind the “drink traffic’’ which wields it, while the Prohibitionists like the viper is biting the file. • Raising the Wind. National banks are depositing bonds with tbe Ccmptrcl'er of the Currency and receiving issues of currency on them. To make tbe transaction complete the Comptoller should haye the “option” of burn ing the hoods and allow the banks to keep the purrency “for ever." Such action would liquidate so much of the public debt, the banks would have the value of their bonds in money tp Joan anfl the people would have the use of the money io their business. Every body it seems would be benefitted— except —those who speculate on the debts of the govern ment, and whose little finger is made stronger than the loins pf alj the people by our class laws. La Grippe. During the prevalence of tbe grippe the past seasons it was a noticeable fact that those who depended upon Dr. King’s New Discovery, not only had a speedy recovery, but escaped all of the troublesome after effects of the malady- This remedy seems to have a peculiar J pover in effecting rapid cures tgt only in eases of la grippe, but in all diseases < of throat, chest aud lungs, and has 1 cured cases of asthma and hay fever of long standing Try it and be convinced. , It won’t disappoint, free trial bottles j at L.

The treasury department has de. cided that under tbe law it is not obliged to purchase 4,500,000 ounces of silver monthly, as has been tbe 1 custom id the past under the Sher man act. Law seems to be a very elastic thing when you get the right kind of a fellow to interpret it, and i our present administration seems to i be composed of first class interpre ters from a gold bug stand point Reasoner. Mr. Cleveland proposes to inter • pret the law respecting tbe sale ot gold bonds in the same way, and the , rumors, like the rustle of the breeze i that preceeds the storm, indicate the i President’s purpose to sell fifty to i three hundred millions of gold bonds , to redeem currency issued for tbe payment of silver purchases. The f cure for these abuses which are i steadily growing is the ‘ referendum” ■ the referring all important laws back , to the people for confirmation.

Mr. Carnegie in his famous North , American Review article on the A J B C of money said, though a life— ’ long protectionist, if in the next cam paign (that was the campaign of’92) there should be on one side a candi date who was a single gold standard > man and a free-trader and upon the other hand a high protectionist in favor of the double standard, he, Audrew Carnegie, the owner of for ! tures which he supposed were chiefly gained through protection, should support the free-trade gold standard man It is no wonder he should say that if he were compelled to relinquish the dimes that came to him by pro tection or the dollars which came to him through infamous and imbecile legislation lie would bold on to tbe dollars and say good by to the dimes. —Extracts from tbe speech of Pence of Colorado in the House. Based cn Bribery. Mr. Cleveland and the New York gold ring express themselves very sanguine of the repeal of the silver aot in a short time after the meeting of congress. The gold ring dailies are wondering what such expectations are based ou. Their figuring leads them to a different conclusion and they wonder what Mr. Whitney and his gold bug friends base their predictions on. They base them on bribery. They have been invariably successful in securing every favor they asked for from congress in the past by the liberal use of money and their faith is strong that it will be as powerful as ever when judiciously handled. They have the money ready and believe they can buy the present congress as readily as former oues Their faith is based on the poliey of bribery. Their big dailies ought to un derstand it. They have been bought. — ‘ Vacations” are the fashion now with the members of pretty nearly all vocations but the farmer's.
