During the lust 20 years legislation has boon creating an additional domand for gold, and this law crented dornand has ve- sulted in inorensing tho purchasing power of ounco of gold, 'The restoration of bimetallism. in the United States will tike away from: gold just so mutch of its pur- chasing power as was added to it by tho demonotization of silver by tho United States, 'The sliver dollar is now hold up to the gold dollar by logal tendor laws and nob by rodomption din gold, becauso tho standard: slivor doling mo not now ro- deemable in gold cither in law or by ad- ministrative policy, I Wo contond that free and unlimited cofn- ago by tho United States alone will raigo the bullfon veluo of silver to: its coluago valuo,. and thus make silver bullion worth $1,890: por ounco in gold throughout the world, This proposition is in keoping with naburil laws, not In doflance of thom. The best known luw of commercois the law of atuipply and demand, 'We recognize this tiaw ind build our argiumont upon it. Wo apply this Inw to money whon wo say that a reduction in the volume of money will raiso tho purchasing power of tho dollar. We also apply the lnw of supply and do- mand to sliver whon wo say that a now demand for silver created by law will raiso theprice of sliver bullion. Gold and silver ars difforent from other commodities in that they aro limited in quantity. Corn, whent, manufactured products, oto. , caa bo produced almost without linilt, provided they can bo gold fit i prico sufficient to atimalato production, but gold and silyor aro called procious motails bectuso they aro found, not produced, These motals havo been the obfieofis of anxious: search as far back as history runs; yot, according to Mr. Elaivey's calculation, all tho. gold coin of the world can bo molted into a 22 foot cube and alt the sifvor coin in the world into a 66 foot cube. Because gold nnd silver aro limited, both in the quantity now in hand and in sunual production, it follows that legislation crn fix the ratio between them. Any who. stands ready to tako the entire supply of any givon article ati certain prico can provent that article from fulling below that: prico. So the govern- ament cantix a price for gold and sllyer by creating iv demand: groater than the sup- ply. International bimetallists believe that severnl nations, by ontoring into an agree- mont to coin at iv fixed ratio:all tho gold and sllvor presonted, can maintain the builion valdio of the motals. at the mint ratio. Whon a mint price is thus cstab- lished, it rogulates tho bullion price, be- cause any porson: desiring coln may havo tho bullion converted into: coln at that prices, and any porson desiring bullion can sccure it by molting tho coln. Tho only uestion upon which international bimaotal« liste andindopondont blinctailists diffor is, Can the United States by the free and un- limited coluago of silver at the prosont legat ratio cronto s demand for sllvor which, tiken in connection with the do- mind niready in oxistence, will bo suf- ficient to utilize all the silver that will bo prosontednt the mints? They agreo in their defense of tho bimotallic principle, and thoy {n unalterable opposition to the gold standard. Intornatlonal bimotallists cannot compluin that freo-colnigo gives a bonoflt to the mino ownor, beentso intor» auitlonal blmatall{sm gives to tho ownor of gllvor all tho advantages offered by indo- pondont bimctallism at the same ratio, In- ternational bimetailists cannot accuso tho advocates of freo silyor of being \bullion owncs who desire to tmiso tho valuo of thoir bultfon,\ or \debtors who dosiro to pay tholr dobts in cheup dollars,\ or \domagogues who desire to curry favor withe the poople.\ | Thay must rost their spposlblatt upon ane ground onuly-namoly, that the supply of sllvor avatlable for coin« go Is too Tin'go to bo utilized by the Unit. «kl Stratos. A Roply to Oriticism, Porhape tho most poraistont misropre- adiitation that wo have to mest is tho eharge that wo are advocating the pnymont of debts {1 560 cont dollurg. At the present time aud undor pregont Inwa a silver dol- lar whon. molted losog nearly half {ts val- v0, but that will not bo true whon we again: oatablisle a mint price for sliver and leave no surplus sliver upon the market to drig down tho price of bullion. 'Under bi- silver buillon will be worth as xauch as sliver coin, Just as gold bullion is now worti as much 4s gold coin, and wo believe that a sliver dollar will be worth as niuch tia a gold The charge oi repud'ation comes with poor grace from thoe wi.o ete recking to add to the woight of existing debts by legislation which makes money desrerand who concent their dosigns ngainst the gen- eral \velfnre under the cuphonious pretense that thoy aro upholding public credit and national honor. In answer to the chargo that gold will go abroad, it must be remembered that no gold can leave this country until the own- er of theo gold receives something in return for it which ho would rather have. In other words, when gold leaves the country those who formerly owned i6 will be bone- fited,. Thoreis no process by which we can be compelled to part with our gold against our will, nor is there any process by which silver can bo forced upon us without onur consont. | Exchanges aro mat- ters of agreement. and if silver comes to this country under free coinage it will be nt the Invitation of some one in this coun- try who will give something in exchange for It. Those who deny the ability of the Unit- ed States to maintain the parity between gold and silver at the present legal ratio without foreign aid point to Mexico and assert that the opening of our mints will reduce its to a silver basis and raise gold to a premium. It is no reflection upon our sister ropublic to remind our people that the United States is much greater than Mexico in area, in population and in commercial strongth. It is absurd to as- sort that the United States is not able to do anything which Mexico has failed to accomplish, The one thing necessary in order to maintain tho parity is to furnish a demand great enough to utilize all the gllver which will come to the mints. That Mexico has failed to do this is not proof that the United States would also fail. It is also rogned that, since a number of the nations havo demonetized silver, noth- ing can bo done until all of those nations restore bimctallism, 'This is also illogical. It is immaterial how many or how faw nations havo egen mints, provided there are sufflclent open mints to furnish a mon- etary demand for all the gold and silver available for coinage, * In reply to the argtuinent that improved machinery has lessened theo cost of produc- ing silver, it is sufficient to say that tho samo is truo of the production of gold, and yet, notwithstancing that, gold has risen in value. Asa matter of fact, the cost of production coos not determine the valuo of the precious motals, except asit may affect the supply. If, for instance, the cost of producing gold should be reduced 90 por cont without any increase in the out- - put, the purchasing power of au ounce of gold would nat fall, Fo long as there is a monetiry Comand suffleient to take at a fixed mint price all tho g.ld and silver produced the cost of production need not be considered. w Prices of Gold and Silver. Itis often objected that the prices of gold and silver cannot. bo fixed in relation to each other because of the variation in the relative production of the metals, 'This argument also overlooks the fact that, if the demand for both metals uta fixed price is greater thin the supply of both, relativo production becomes immaterial. In the early part of the present century the an- nual production of silver was worth, at the coinage ritlo, about three times as much as the annual production of gold, whereas, soon iter 1849, the annual pro- duction of gold became worth about threo times as much, at the coinage ratio, as tho annual production of silver, and yet, ow- ing to the maintenance of the bimetallic standard, theso enormous changes in rela- tive production had but a slight effect up- on the relative values of the metals. If it is asserted by our opponents that the free coinage of silver is intended only for the benefit of the mine owners, it must be remembered that free coinage cannot restore to the mine owners any more thin demonetization took away, and it must also be remembered that the«loss which the demonetization of silver has brought to the mine owners is insignificant com- pared to tho loss which this policy has brought to the rest of the people. The res- toration of silver will bring to the people genorally many times as much advantage as tho mine owners can obtain from it. While it is not the purpose of free coinage to specially ald. any particular class, yet those who believe that the restoration of silver is needed by the whole people should not be deterred because an incidental ben- efit will come to tho mine owner. The erec- tion of forts, the dcepening of harbors, the improvement of rivers, the erection of public buildings, all these confer inci- dental benefits upon Individuals and com- munities, and yet these incidental benefits do not deterus from making appropria- tions for theso purposes whenever such ap- proxiriutions' are necessary for the public good. The argument that a silver dollar is heavier than a gold dollar, and that there- fora silveris loss convenient to carry in large quantities, is completely answered by tho silver certificate, which is as casily carried as the gold certificate or any other kind of paper money. If our prosont currency is estimated at $1,400,000,000 and our population is increasing at the ratio of 3 per cent per annuni, it would require $42,000,000 in- creased circulation cach year to keep pace with the inercaso of population, but as the increago of population is rccompanied by a stil greater ratio of increase of wealth and business' It was thought that an immedi- ato increaso of circulation might bo ob- tained by larger purchases of silver bullion to an mount sufficient to make good the retiroment of bunk notes and keep pace with the growth of population. Assuming that $54,000,000 v year of additional cur- rency is needed upon this basis, that mmountis provided for in this bill by the isso of treasury notes in oxchange for bullion at thoe market price. If tho United States then needed more than $42,000,000 annually to keep pace with population and business, it now, with a largoe population, needs a still greater annual aldition, and the United States is only oue nation among many. Our opponents make no adequate provi- slon for the incresising monetary needs of the world, In the incond place, a change in the ra- Ito is not necessary. Hostile legislation Mas decrensed the demand forsilver and lowered its price when measured by gold, while this sume hostile legislation, by in- erensing the demand for gold, has raised the yaluo of gold whon measured by other forms of property. ‘ Wo nro told that the restoration of bi- motallism would be a hardship upon those who huve entered into contracts payable An gold coln, but this is a mistake. It-will* be easior to obtain the gold with which to meet n gold contract, when most of the people can uso silver, than itis now, when every ono is trying to secure gold. The Chicago platform expressly declares In favor of such legislation as may be nee- essary to prevent for the future the de- monetization of any kind of legal tender TUESDAY, AUGUST 18 money by private contract Such con- tracts are objected to on the ground that they are against public policy. No one questions the right of legislatures to fix the rate of interest which can be collected by law. There is far more reason for pre- venting private individuals from setting aside legal tender law, 'The money which is by law made a legal tender must, in the course of ordinary business, beaccepted by ninety-nine out of every hundred per- sons. Why should the one-hundredth man be permitted to exempt himself from the general rule? Special contracts have a tondency to increase the demand for s par- ticular kind of money, and thus force it to a premium. Have not the people a right to say that a comparatively few individ- uals shall not be permitted. to derauge the financial system of the nation in order to collect a premium in case they succeed in forcing one kind of money to a premium? There is another argument to which I ask your attention. Some of the more zealous opponents of free coinage point to the fact that 18 months must elapse be- tween the election and the first regular session of congress and assert that during that time, in case people declare themselves in favor of free coinage, all loans will be withdrawn and all morbgages foreclosed. If these are morely prophecies indulged in by those who have forgotten the provisions of the constitution, it will be sufficient to remind them that the president is empow- ered to convene congress in extraordinary session whenever the public good requires such action. If in November the people by their ballots declare themselves in favor of the immedinte restoration of bimetal- lism, the system can be inaugurated with- in a few months. If, however, theassertion that loans will be withdrawn and mortgages foreclosed is made to prevent such political action as the people may believe to be necessury for the preservation of their rights, then a new and vital issue is raised. Whenever it is necessary for the people as a whole to obtain consent from the owners of morey and the changers of money before they can legislate upon financial questions, we shall have passed from a democracy to a plu- tocracy. But that time has notyetarrived. Threats and intimidation will be of no avail. The people who in 1776 rejected the doctrine that kings rule by right di- vine will not in this generation subscribe to a doctrine that money is omnipotent. International Bimetallism. In conclusion, permit me to say a word in regard to international bimetallism. We are not opposed to an international agreement looking to the restoration of bimetallism throughout the world. The advocates of free coinage have on all occa- sions shown their willingness to co-oper- ate with other mations in the reinstate- ment of silver, but they are not willing to await the pleasure of other governments when immediate relief is needed by the people of the United States, and they fur- ther believe that independent action offers better assurance of international bimet- allism than servile dependence upon for- eign aid. For more than 20 years we bave invited the assistance of European natiotis, but all progress in the direction of inter- national bimetallism has been blocked by the opposition of those who derive a pecun- iary benefit from the appreciation of gold. We shall not offend other nations when we declare the right of the American peo- ple to govern themselves,. and, without let or hindrance from without, decide upon every question presented for their consid- eration. In taking this position we sim- ply maintain the dignity of 70,000,000 citizens who are second to none in their capacity for self government. 'The gold standard has compelled the American people to pay an ever increasing tribute to the creditor nations of the world, a tribute which no one dares to defend. I assert that national honor requires the United States to secure justice for all its citizens as well as do justice to all its cred- tors. - For a people like ours, blessed with natural resources of surpassing richness, to proclaim themselves impotent to frame a financial system suited to their own nceds is humiliating beyond the power of language to describe. We cannot enforce respect for our foreign policy so long as we confess ourselves unable to frame our own financial policy. Honest differences of opinion have al- ways existed and ever will exist as to the legislation best calculated to promote the public weal, but when ib is seriously as- serted that this nation must bow to the dictation of other nations and accept the policies which they insist upon the right of self government is assailed, and until that question is settled all other questions are insignificant. A Word to New York Citizens, Citizens of New York, I have traveled from the center of the continent to the seaboard that I might, in the very begin- ning of the campaign, bring you greeting from the people of the west and south and assure you that their desire is not to de stroy, but to build up. 'Ehey invite you to accept the principles of a living faith rath- er than listen to those who preach the gos- pel of despair and advise endurance of the 1l1s you have. - 'The advocates of free coin- ago believe that in striving to secure the immediate restoration of bimetallism they are laboring in your behalf as well as in their own behalf. A few of your people may prosper under present conditions, but the permanent welfare of New York rests upon the producers of wealth. This great city is built upon the commerce of the na- tion and must suffer if that commerce is impaired. You cannot sell unless the peo- ple have money with which to buy, and they cannot obtain the money with which to buy unless they are able to sell their products at remunerative prices. - Produc- tion of wealth goes before the exchange of wealth., 'Fhose who create must secure a profit before they have anything to share with others. Youcannot afford to join the money changers in supporting a financial policy which, by destroying the purchas- ing power of the products of toil, must in the end discourage the creation of wealth. T ask, I expect, your co-operation. Itis true that a fow of your financiers would fashion a new figure, a figure representing Columbia, her hands bound fast with fet- ters of gold and hor face turned toward the east, appealing for assistance to those who live beyond the sen, but this figure can never express your iden of this nation. You will rathor turn for inspiration to the heroic statue which guards the entrance to your city, a statue as patriotic in concep- tion as it is colossal in proportions. It was the gracious gift of a sister republic and stands upon a pedestal which was built by the American people. That figure, Liber- ty, enlightening the world, is emblematic of the mission of our nation among the nations of the earth. - With a government which derives its powers from the consent of the governed, secures to all the people freedom of conscience, freedom of thought and freedom of speech, guarantees equal rights to all and promises special priv- ileges to none, the United States should he an example in all that is good and the leading spirit in every movement which ins for its object the uplifting of the hu- 4 run race.

Va., Aug. 15.-Engi- neer Fred Ramp, of flyer No. 1, going west, Engineer William Johnson of fast freight coming east, and Fireman Huff of the flyer were killed this morn- ing in a collision at Torch on the Balti- more and Ohio Southwestern. No. 1 was running 25 minutes late and was coming down Torch hill when the col- lision occurred. Both engines were completely wrecked. The dead engi- neers were from Chillicotthe and Huff lived at Athens. Those fatally hurt are Jim Overlick, brakeman of freight and Dick Thompson fireman of the freight. Postal Clerk Origan of Lowelland, Ohio, is also seriously hurt. The freight j crew disobeyed orders it is said causing i the accident. ' BOTH VESSELS SUNK. A Bad Collision St. Clair. in Lake THE STEAMER OCEANICA AND PROPELLER DOWX-THE CREWS SAVED. Detroit, Mich., Aug. 15.-Last night . at 11 o'clock the steamer Oceanica, of the Lehigh Valley Transportation Com- pany's fleet, collided with the propeller William Chrisholm in the new channel i in Lake St. Clair, and both were sunk. 'The Oceanica was bound up loaded with coal from Buffalo to Chicago. The Chrisholm was loaded with iron ore, i and was bound from Marquette to Ohio ! ports. 'The accident occurred in that portion of the lake known as the \new cut\ or channel, about 3% miles above Grosse I d U { Point, and near one of the range lights. None of the crew of either vessel was drowned, all the men taking to the rigging until help arrived. p The Oceanica was a boat of 1,490 tons j and valued at $80,000. 'The Chrisholm % was valued at $125,000, and was of 1.- 581 tons. The present owners are H. J. Webb & Co., of Cleveland. 'Theb oats lies in 17 feet of water. It is thought the accident was caused by confusion in signals or lights. A LEGAL CONTEST. TO RIGHT OF \NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC * PARTY\ TO USE TH‘A'L‘ NAME, Chicago, Aug. 15.-A special from In- dianapolis says there is little doubt that a legal contest will ensue as to the right of the \National Democratic Party\ to use that name. 'The point is made un- der the Australian ballot law, by the free silver men, that every party rep- resented upon the ballot must be des- ignated by a different name and differ- ent device, in order that the most ig- norant voter may not be deceived into voting for a candidate that is not the man of his choice. Gov. Matthews was asked what steps he would take in the premises but he declined to discuss the matter. \I have heard the subject referred to,\ said he, \and there has been some discussion of it, but nop lan of action has been decid- ed upon. 'The intent of the law in this State is very clear and that will doubt less be followed regardless of what party it affects. I have also understood that steps will be taken to prevent the use of the new party name on election ballots, but I am not advised as to what t hese steps will be.\ TITUS SUSPENDED. L. A. W. BOARD REDUCES CABAXN- NE'S SUSPENSION ONE YEAR. Louisville, Ky., Aug. 15.-The Racing Board of the L. A. W., last night passed on the suspension of Cabanne and Titus for alleged crooked work last year. The suspension' of Cabanne was reduced one year, expiring in September, 1896. The recommendation as to Titus was denied, and he permanently suspended. After the banquet at the Galt House the L, A.
