Commenting on Mr. Balfour's went
statement concerning an international
monetary conference, tho London News
says:
Mr. Balfour's answer disposes if liimetallism
eo far as this government is eunci iieil, unci
Ave arc heartily (jliul or it, because we believe
that bimetallism spells -•ruin" for tin* nr.'iit
creditor country of the world. Mr. Halfour
has gone farther even than Sir William liar
court, who did not object to conference pro
vided thi! British delegates were instructed to
vote against debusing the currency.
Ill bimetallic circles, however, another com
plexion is put on the matter. The oliicials of
the Bimetallic league especially dwell on l!
fact.that Sir. Balfour's remarks referred to
ail immediate conference, and it is claimed
that lus a matter of fact his reply reveals the
expectance upon the part of the government
that a successful conference can f*ulisequentlv
be arranged. The Bimetallic league olHciaH
therefore di-ehire themselves pleased with the
answer of the first lord of the treasury.
"Bimetallism spells ruin for the great
creditor country of tho world." and
England does not object to a conference
if it can be assured that the irsult of
the conference will be to maintain the
gold standard.
Commenting upon the Ohio Demo
cratic state convention Tho Westminster
Gazette says that tho final vote of the
Ohio Democratic state convention
against free silver,cannot, fail to havo
material bearing whatever may be tho
outcomo of tho controversy on this ques
tion. Tho Gazette adds that, it is an un
doubted fact that tho present uncertainty
is having a most pernicious effect upon
tho well being of tho United States,
but should it. ultimately be decided to
establish a fixed ratio between gold and
silver, it does not i.-i any wise follow
that what will suit America will be ac
ceptable to Great Britain.
Now this is refreshing.
We have a distinct recollection that
George Washington, Patrick Henry,
John Hancock and a number of other
loyal American citizens advocated meas
ures and did things that were "not ac
ceptable to Great Britain." But the
greatest nation upon God's footstool
was established and grew and developed
in spite of tho fact that the things which
made that prosperity possiblo were "not
acceptable to Great Britain."
When the tea was dumped overboard,
that act was "not acceptable to Great
Britain."
It may bo necessary to dump some
more tea overboard, and our London
friends may rest assured that the
."dumping" will take place in spite of
fit# fnct
that such an act would "not be
aofifiptfjble to Great Britain."—Omaha
World-Herald-
Senator l'ugh'H Prophecy.
Senator Pugh of Alabama in a recent
speech said: "I iredict that Mr. Cleve
land's next message will declare for ad
ditional legislation to maintain tho gold
basis. That means that the gold trunk
is too slim to support the limbs put out
by the silver and gold basis. Tho coin
basis lias been contracted and will break
to pieces under the weight of its limbs,
(ind then will bo demonstrated the im
uggpii/iiity of the single gold standard.

1 nolic-d in the Sunday Herald a let
ter from a Chicago banker in praise of
tho la!e bond syndicate, engineered 011
this side the water by .T. P. ^Morgan,
and, according to the Chicago man. ths
proper thing for tho American people to
do would lie to raiso a benefit fund of
an amount double or trehlo what, tho
syndicate made out of the bond deal to
bo distributed among its active members
in recognition of their great service to
tho country, l-'roni tho tone of that let
ter Lincoln nor any of his cabinet,
Grant nor any of his generals, ever :eii
dered service to I ho country to bo com
pared with what the syndicate has dong.
Indeed, according to tho Chicago
man, if the bond syndicato hadn't jr.it
uji its props, the whole United StateP
government would havo fallen down,
and the collapse would have been mil
lions and millions ol' I inies worse than
anything that ever happened—earth
quakes or anything else—in this world.
But 1 suppose wo may expect to find
such stuff as tl-.at letter contained iu
'i?ho Herald and other papers of liko
persuasion. .Still it is irritating to read
that this country, the richest in natural
resources, in ent.-rpri.se, in actual
wealth—iu everything desirable—had
to be jirojiped up by a handl'nl of men,
nnrewdly manipulating bonds to their
own pecuniary advantago of j,U,000,
001).
It's a lie, jitire and simple, and sucft
ntulT can be printed for no other purpura
than to divert the people's mind fiom
the disgrace into which Mif-y have fallen
by their blind folly iu voting tho gov
ernment into the hands of such men as
Grover Cleveland and like incompetents.
In conclusion. s?H,000,000 is a nice
finni of which to mulct even the United
States treasury. Did tho Washington
officials shaie in tho rake off? The mat
tar should be investigated. If they did
not, tliey should be impeached and re
moved from ol!ice as imbeciles and sent,
to seme institution whet-- the feeble
minded are eared for. Jf they did, why
of course they should be impeached and
handled in tho United States co-.itt ac
cording to law.
Ah, the shame, theshamo! The coun
try lnts had presidents and president -,
secretaries and secretarits. i'.onie have
honored tho positions, and some have
been honored by them, but he whom wo
call president today is incapable of
either honoring cv being honored.—Cor.

YJie Money l'ower In livery Contest 1«
round Arrayed Agjuiiibt tho Teople.
Every ^fcat li-j islativo battle lunylit
in this country's history has been a
struggle between tliu power of moii'-y
and tho honest heai-ted, fair minded
common people, and we challenge unj
and all caiiitalistic. ajiologists to prove
the contraiy. Take tho repeal of tho
Sherntiin act by tlio last con^i'i'.ss, for
example. Tho law as it stood benefited
the masses very little, it is true, but it
was a thorn in tho .side of tho money
classes. They raised the standard of re
volt. They started a lino and cry of "no
conlideiice,l! worked upon tho fears and
intimidated the debt ridden business
interests and nro largely responsible for
tho crushing out of 20,001) business con
cerns during the last two years.
Tho banking conspirators found it im
possible to control silver as easily as
gold and their promises to pay stuir.
Therefore silver had to go. Gold, they
said, must bo redemption money, know
ing that thero is not enough of it in the
whole world to pay one-sixth of tho ob
ligations of tho people of tho United
States and knowing that it would neces
sitate tho issuance of more bonds, the
piling on of more debts and would cre
ate more bank contraction paper and
giva a now leaso of life to that blood
sucking octopus, tho national banking
system. The money power, tho moving
influence of which is the bank gang,
thrives upon usury and is making con
tinuous war upon the wealth producers
of this nation.T—Cleveland Citizen.
Neither Sen.sc, Logic Nor Hopesty.
Tho pretended frionds of bimetallism
who uver that the only way to rehabili
tate silver is an international agreement
aro enemies to tho cause. They havo
neither sense, logic nor honesty 011 their
sido. They declaro that independent ac
tion on tho part of tho United Stales
would put the country on a silver basis,
and assumo that ruin would inevitably
follow such a course, but they furnish
no argument to support their contention.
Tho United States was not ruined when
it was compelled to depend wholly up
on a paper currency. Ou thq contrary,
it made greater relative progress be
tween 1SG8 and 879 than it lias sincp
tho latter date. Mexico is on a silver
basis and is not going to ruin. Her
manufacturers are growing and slio is
increasing lier production and wealth

•Stale of rfoiith Dakota,
almost daily. Tho talk about silver
monometallism is a bogy and does not
frighten men of information and sense.
But the opening of our mints to freo
coinago would not bring us to silver
monometallism. Our action would be
inflated at once by other nations as a
measure of protection to themsolves and
to save themselves from tho inevitable
disaster which would follow a retention
of tho gold standard after we had gone
to a currency which would perforce
compel us to depend wholly upon our
own efforts to supply our demand for
manufactured articles.—San Francisco
Chronicle.
Wealth Concentrating*
The centralization of wealth is an
alarming foaturo of our civilization, and
especially so because no one, even th(»
wisest, sees how to arrest or control it.
The Rothschilds represent $900,000,000.
A dozen otier families represent fabu
lous amounts. Wealth is running to cen
ters, liko population to cities, and it is
becoming harder and harder for the
great body of peoplo to get and have
enough to satisfy reasonable wants and
ambitions.—National Watchman.
