The Money Conference.
Silver State.
Rothschild’s plan of permanently !
establishing the gold standard and
continuing silver as a commodity is
about to be adopted by the monetary
conference. The plan in substance
and effect is to form an international
syndicate of goldbug bankers to buy
silver bullion at such a price as the
syndicate may see fit to give; the
United States to continue its pur
chase of 4,500,000 ounces, payable in
gold ; if necessary the government to
issue its bonds bearing interest and
sell their bonds to the Rothschilds
and other hoarders of gold for funds
to pay tor the silver bullion. If this
scheme is adopted it effectually de
feats free coinage and leaves the
value of silver bullion to be con
trolled by the money rings. The
price of silver will fluctuate from 40
to 80 or 90 cents an ounce—as it
maybe determined by the syndicates.
The press dispatches say that the
American representatives are satis
fied with this plan. This is not to be
wondered at, as the conference was
called by Harrison at the suggestion
of the Rothschilds to permanently
degrade silver, and the five American
representatives were appointed to
carry out this project. They will
obey the President’s instructions and
erect as strong a barrier as possible
in this conference against free coin
age. But the fact remains that the
conference and all the powers of Eu
rope cannot bind the American peo
ple. The people are aroused and
will not rest until Congress shall re
establish the monetary system as it
was before 1873. The restoration of
silver as money is the only vital po
litical question before the American
people. This nation is big enough
and strong enough to adopt and
maintain its own financial policy in
dependent of any or all other nations
combined. And the people propose
to and will adopt the free coinage of
silver and gold at the present ratio
and maintain it. If any other coun
try does not like our way of doing
business it need not trade with us.
We will adopt our own financial
policy and shut off all immigration
from any gold standard nation, and
put a prohibitory tariff upon all of its
products. We can force all Europe
to adopt the double standard or
starve them to death in two years.
The crime sought to be perpetrated
by Harrison’s conference will so
arouse the people that no party or
combination of the money power can
stay the popular upheaval. The
friends of silver must not halt for an
instant in pressing the fight. The
plutocracy of the world are combined
against them. The present adminis
tration is in alliance with the enemy.
The incoming administration will be
tied hand and foot by Wall street
and the gold rings. Nothing on
earth will cut Cleveland loose from
the gold syndicates and money trusts
but the threatened wrath of the peo
ple. There must be a united demand
made by the friends of silver on the
present Congress and the next if we
fail in this. The silver sentimen of
the country must be organized wher
ever it exists. The §ilver party of
this State should hold a State con
vention in a few weeks with a view
of co-operating with other States in
the organization of the Western sil
ver league, to embrace all the States
west of the Missouri river, and in
encouraging other similar organiza
tions in other sections of the union.
PARTY PAFE.fc ATLANTA, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6,1892
The Condition in Mexico.
G. R. Williams, in National View.
To those men who attribute our
national prosperity to our gold basis
currency in a great measure, we cite
Mexico’s condition. Mexico is upon
a purely silver basis. We learn
from her reports that from 1880 to
1890 she coined over $250,000,000
of silver, which, under the American
idea, should cause it to depreciate.
We learn that she has had no trouble
in trading with the world, meeting
no hinderance or inconvenience.
Under the stimulus of this silver
medium she has exported over $75,-
000,000 worth of products within a
single year. This is very good for
a land of revolution. It shows no
serious handicap by reason of her
silver unit. We hear no complaint
in Mexico of a depreciated dollar,
because they are clothed with full
money functions. It is a source of
no trouble to her in her foreign
trade. The extent of that trade
shows a thrift far beyond expecta
tions. There is no evidence of be
ing handicapped. She constitutes
her most plentiful metal the unit that
her citizens may reap the largest
benefits from her volume. Within a
single year she coined ovdr $74,000,-
000 of this base metal, so-called, and
challenged the world to business re
lations and was freely met. She
stimulated labor to produce great
harvests, calling forth the full power
of production in her tropical lati
tude. She has maintained a nation
ality and grown to a more liberal
form. This is the accomplishment
which challenges respect and estab
lishes silver’s power. If this is the
accomplishment in Mexico, why
should we shrink? In assisting
Mexico to a higher plane of civiliza
tion it strips her of the stigma of the
ages and places her in the line of a
higher civilization, of a broader
progress. If silver is base, such free
coinage and use should show it. It
holds its ancient position unsullied.
It has upheld Mexico’s every form
of government and never shown
itself a coward. Its powers have
been tried in Mexico as in no other
land. It is assisting Mexico in forg
ing ahead in material ways. With
it Mexico bids fair to soon become
the recepticle for the wealth of the
Orient. She shows no signs of
taking the retrograde step into a
dwarfed money supply. Iler pro
gress is in spite of climatic barriers
and an intelligence long dwarfed by
internal feuds. She is above dwarf
ing productive manhood through
legal enactments. God grant that
she may never adopt those methods
of absorption through which wealth
concentrates. If such is the only
path to the higher civization, leave
us, Oh, God, with the barbarians,
that we may enjoy thy gifts unpol
luted by Magog’s touch through the
touch of a buried nationality.
Americans may well watch Mexico’s
progress, though her intelligent
methods of calling in the wealth of
foreign lands, as she does it through
an agency which we spurn. Which
nation holds its native products in
highest regard ? Which answers
the most freely to home demands?
Why pretend to protect products,
but dwarf the production by dwarf
ing the exchanageable medium ?
We see a contradiction here which
is painful.
OFFER TO CHRONIC INVALIDS.
After twenty years practice I am con
vinced that every disease is caused and
continued by its own Germ, or Microbe.
Any person who has been in ill health
for three months or longer, can send me
history of their case, with ONE DOLLAR
and receive a trial package making two
gallons of medicine.
This is my own preparetion, basid upon
the Germ Theory of Disease, and s not a
patent medicine.
If no benefit received the money will
be returned to you. I refer to any clergy
man in Atlanta, or to the editor of this
paper. J. W. STONE, M. D.,
(Late Dean of the Woman’s Medical
College of Georgia.)
We knew Dr. Stone; he will do exactly
as he agrees.—Editor.
If Congress would issue to the
people direct a sufficient amount of
currency, free from the tribute now
levied by the banks and usurers, the
real foundation for prosperity and
happier conditions would be laid.
Supplement this with an income tax
whereby those who absorb the profits
of labor in production would be com
pelled to pay their full share of gov
ernment expenses, and a discussion
of the tariff might be profitable.
Until then it is au illusion and a
snare. The plain fact that hard
times, business distress, want and
wretchedness, have come to the peo
ple under both free trade and pro
tection cannot be denied. Another
fact equally plain is that no man liv
ing or dead ever experienced hard
times, with its attendant miseries,
when there was plenty of money.
The Examiner, of Hartford, Conn,
says:
“A Democratic paper of Spring
field, Mass., summing up the several
things the incoming administration
of Cleveland is pledged to do, among
the rest tells us that it will ‘reform
the election laws so that citizens will
no longer be insulted by the intar
ference of United States officials at
the polls.’ This is most refreshingly
cool. Talk of insulting the kind of
‘citizen’ who uses rotten eggs for
political argument and stuffs or steals
ballot-boxes to emphasize his right to
the untrammeled exercise of the suf
frage. Our Democratic paper must
conscious of many innocents
ng its constituency,”
