I ready to divide hia Iasi dollar
with the needy.
Yeejrflver ie called the money
of Abraham. But believing as
he did in “money current with
the merchant" that grand old
patriarch is on record against
the free ooinue doctrine of
“going it alone.' Were he alive
tods? and an American, wo
should expect to see the father
of the faithful still standing
with those who are in favor of
a money good the commercial
world over, even if it did cause
him to be maligned as a cring
ing slave to European dictation
and as being in the pay of his
gold bug kinsmen in the flesh,
even the Rothschilds over the
sea. “Money current with the
merchant"—there's a whole
sound money sermon in the
words.—Gastonia Gazette:
The above article is from the
editorial page of the Gastonia
Gasette published here in our
county, and we publish it and
make a few remarks on it just
to show the deepen to straights
the best of the Cuckoo editors
are reduced to in trying to ease
their conscience and Keep in
the good graces of Southern
people ana at the same time
be able to say cuckoo every
time Cleveland cracks the party
lash. It is a pitiful sight to
see good men like postmaster,
editor, marshall, commit politi
cal debauchery and htstonal as
sassination, mid the attempts
of these cuckoo editors since
Cleveland's letter to Governor
Stone are frantic and *»-►»-—» at
tempts to reconcile impoeeibQi
tiea, and they should be held
op to the scorn and ridicule of
all lovers of truth and true
statesmanship. We know that
uiu ciasa oi politicians are not
supposed to know much about
the Bible historically if much
•bout its divine precepts, and if
ws were qualified to teach them
we would not attempt to do so,
because ws are expressly for
bidden to cast one pearl before
swine. Therefore the few re
marks we are about to make
are intended for the benefit of
the public and in a measure in
our humble way to counteract
the effects of such false doc
trine as is now being (or at
least attempting to be) incul
cated among the masses who
deserve to know the truth, and
right here we wish to say that
we sc* ,. *• much opposed
to a single silver standard
•s we are to a single
gold standard. We as
sert without the fear of contra
diction that silver was the lead
ing money of the scriptures
and of all enlightened nations
and that both gold and silver
as advocated by bi-metallist or
double standard men of today
are both money metals and en
titled to equal protection in
their coinage, except as to
ratios. All of us want a sound
and safe money. All the money
we have or will have is and will
be sound and safe we will
never object to seeing a dollar’s
worth of both gold and silver
pot respectively in a gold and
silver dollar. But to the text
“money current to the mer
chant” and the false, mislead
ing, ridiculeua and sacrilegious
assertion that Abraham the
ft* AS UU ( OV *
ord against the free coinage
doctrine." The transaction al
luded to is to be found in Gene
sis, 28d chapter, and we read
that "Sarah died in Hebron in
the land of Canaan, 127 years
old,” verse 3. And Abraham
stood up from before hie dead
and spoke unto the sons of
Heth saying; Verse 4,1 am a
stranger and a sojourner with
you, give me a possession of a
burying place with you, that 1
may bury my dead ont of my
sight, verse 8, hear me and en
treat for me to Ephian the son of
Zohar-, verse 9. That he may
eve me the cave of lfachpelah
v as much money as it is
worth, verse 10, and Edbtan
the Hittfte answered verse 11,
"nay my Lord here me the field
|he I thee.” Abraham answer
ed In verse 13. "1 will give the
money for the field, verse 14.
And Ephian answered Abra
ham saying unto him, verse 13.
My Lord hearken onto me the
land is worth four hundred
sheoklee of saver, verse 18,
and Abraham hearkened onto
Ephian and Abraham weighed
to Ephian the silvor which bo
had named hi the audience of
the Bmsef Heth four hundred
s heckles of silver '‘current
money with the merchant" such
money as was used in Canaan
by peddlers not an interna
tional moder, other nations,
need soma leather and some
hen money. Now any man
with one eye, one grfin of
senes and no thought or dis
cernment oaa see from the
above trs negation that stiver
wee the mefBum of evchaiye
.* 0 *
•ad if Abraham were living
today “we would expect to
see" Cleveland’s cuckoo editors
trying to tom the grand old
patriarch out of the church for
using silver to buy a place to
bury 8-rah in. Remember
Abraham wae “a sojourner in
the country," a cattle man,wan
dering from place to place
"seeking a city whose builder
and mater ia God, eternal in
the bee vena," and that he is
not on reoord as being against
any money. This, transaction
took plaoe 1869 years before
Christ wae born into the world,
and there wae no coinage of
money then, remember Abra
ham "weighed the monby."
The greatest Bible commenta
tor the world has ever known
•ays, the word money whom
ever used in the 28d chapter of
Genesis * means silver and
that “it wae not coined money”
and the fact that It was weigh
ed,proves this. The earliest men
tion of coined money in the
Bible is in Sara 686 years be
fore ChrietrOr thirteen hundred
and twenty-three years after
Abraham bought Machpelah.
One of the beet authorities who
ever wrote on-the moneys of
the ancient and modern nations
says “silver has always been
the leading money even where
the double standard existed or
rather where both gold and
silver have been used as money,
and that gold baa been valua
ble chiefly for use in the arts.”
Time and space prevent us
from naming a tenth part of
the recorded instances, both in
sacred and profane and ancient
and modem history to prove
these facts.
Ana ms purchasing power or
silver baa never been and never
wQl be destroyed. Abraham’s
money was silver and Abra
ham's faith was in one true
God. We are aware that
Cleveland and bis ungodlv crew
have gone back on Abrsinam's
faith, nut the people have gone
hack on Cleveland and bis fol
lowers the arch destroyers of
the people’s property, the disj
grace of the nineteenth century.
Never has such want and
misery pervaded a Christian
country. But thank God their
doom is written, the handwrit
ing is on the wall, they have
been weighed in silver balances
and found wanting and in '96
they will coma to toe wedding
feast “not having on s wedding
garment" and be “cart into out
er darkness where there is
weeping and gnashing of
teeth.” Now our doxology to
this doable standard, good1peo
ples money sermon is to be
found in Job the 33d chapter
and if any cuckoo editor who
has “come to scoff should re
main to pray," we trust they
bo snatcned as a brand from
the everlasting roosting, to
which they are surely going.
“There is a whole sound money
sermon in the words,*’ it is a
double standard doxology, a
sound money doxology and
God is its deOnder, and it reads
as follows: Job 33d chapter,
23d vetbe. “If thou return to
the Almighty tbon shalt he
built up; thou shalt put away
iniquity far from thy taberna
cles. Verso 24: Then shalt thou
lap up gold as dust, and the
gold of Ophir as the stones of
the brooks, vsrse 36, yea the
Almighty shall be thy defense
and thou shalt have plenty of
silver." “BEL AH.”
A Jawol of Gold.
