Walker, State Alliance Lecturer. 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,” DOM'S BLOOD PTOHIERI ■ THE BEST tarn OF A WORN-DOWN SYSTEM. MADE OUT OF [ Native Harbs! HAS Stood THE Test OF FIFTY YEARS.
