WEAVER ON MONEY.
So far in his speeches delivered in
this State Gen. Weaver has confined
himseH mainly to the -discussion oi
the money and transportation ques
tions. He says the country needs
more money, which will be pretty
generally conceded, and then he goes
, on to argue that the only way the
country can -get more money is
through the Third party and by
.voting for Gen. Weaveras it is use
less, he says, "to expect either of the
old parties to espouse this new is
sue." "
Gen. Weaver takes it for granted,
that the people whom he addresses
are intensely ignorant upon this
question when he talks in this
style.. In the first place it
is not a "new issue," for the Dem-
ocratic party has not only advocated
it but secured a very large increase
in the volume of currency when it re
monetized silver (which the Repub
licans had demonetized), and there
by1 added $400,000,000 to the volume
of currency, the increase still being
continued at the rate ot $50,000,000
a year. It saved and kept in circu
lation' $300,000,000 : of greenbacks
' which the Republicans would have
destroyed as they had been doing up
to the : time the destroying process
was stopped. Thus fully $700,000,-.
00Q was added to the volume of cur
rency which would not be in circula
tion now if it had not been for the
Democratic party. ; : ;
He conceals the fact that the plat
form adopted by .the Democratic
National Convention at Chicago con-
tains a plank which demands the re-
peal of the ten per cent, tax on tne
circulation of State banks-of -issue
so that " State " banks may be
established and thus give the peo
ple all the money they need for the
transaction of business, and in a vol
u me that may be expanded ; or con
tracted as the business neeas may
suggest.- - ri i, -::
If Gen. Weaver had said it is use
less to look to the Republican par
ty to espouse this issue- he would
have spoken the truth, for that party
is tied to the National banksand is
stubbornly opposed, not only to any
other system, but to any material in
crease in the ; volume of currency,
but when he couples the Democratic
party with the Republican party in
this he simply misrepresents the
Democratic party and makes a dec
laration for which there is not a par
ticle of foundation, v :,
MLN0B MENTION.
The Republican party ;managers
are going to make a desperate effort
to carry New York this-year for they
recognize the fact that it is only by
a desperate effort they can do it. The
Stale Committee has sent out thou
sands of "confidential" circulars ask
ing the co-operation of men who are
"discreet" and who can "keep a se
cret," arid in addition to f his it has
called into council some of the
most notorious election tricksters of
other States. That they will raise
and use.a large corruption fund goes
without saying, and that they are go
ing to strain every . nerve to car
ry the election by fair means or
foul, also goes without saying. But
with all their plotting and question
able appliances and methods they
have uphill work before them this
year, and have a bigger job on hand
than they have had in any of the
previous Presidential elections for
years. In the first place the Demo
cratic party in the State is united
and solid. There isn't a Democratic
sulker or kicker in it. There isn't a
Democratic leader of prominence in
the State who isn't doing loyal and
stalwart duty for the party and its
candidates, and in addition to this
the independent element, -which in
1884 '.stood by Cleveland, is enthusi
astically for him now. There are,
moreover, thousands of manu
facturers who want free raw
materials,x whose business has
suffered by the McKinley duties
on raw , materials, and these
will vote with the Democratic party,
as will thousands of their employes
who suffer from the high tariff on
raw materials, as their employers
suffer. Then, again, there are in
the city of New York about 30,000
Southern men who have located
there since the war, nearly every one
of whom is a Democrat. Heretofore
not more than half of these have
voted, but this year they take un
usual interest in the election on ac
count of the Force bill, and will
vote to a man. As far as we can
see the advantage is all", with the
Democrats, who have a better pros
pect of carrying the State than they
have ever had since the war.
The Democratic party is not only
in favor of an increase in the volume
of currency,' but Mr. Cleveland
stands squarely upon- that demand
and gives it conspicuous prominence
in his letter of acceptance. He says
"The people are entitled to sound and
honest money abundantly sumcient in
volume to supply their, business needs.
But whatever may be the form of the
people's currency National or State
whether gold, silver or paper it should
be so .regulated and guarded by Govern
ment action, or by wise and careful laws,
that no one can be deluded as to the
certainty and stability of its value."
Here he favors both National and
State currency as the people may
elect, or as they may deem the best
adapted to meet their wants. ' He
believes not only in a full volume of
currency, but in a more perfect dis
tribution, which the Third party
seeks to accomplish through the pro
posed sub-treasury system. He says
" "in dealing: with this subject, no
selfish scheme should be allowed
to intervene and no doubtful -experi-
ment should be attempted. The wants
of . our people, arising from deficient or
imperfect distribution of money circula
tion ought to be fully and honestly re
cognized and efficiently remedied."
lhe most enective system tor a
more perfect distribution will be the
State Banks, which when the ten per
cent, tax is removed will be estab
lished in sufficient number to supply
the people with all the money, they
need for the demands of business
and with a volume which cannot be
controlled, expanded x or contracted
I .as the interests of a handful of money
lords may dictate. And yet Gen.
Weaver has the hardihood to declare
that it is useless to look to the Dem
ocratic; party to espouse this issue
when the Democratic party has-been
contending for it for years and when
its candidate for the Presidency
plants himself flat-footed upon it. v

. The Eaves and anti-Eaves V Re
publican factions in- this State are
fighting- like dogs and cats, but they
are agreed on one thing, and that is
that they must all vote for the elec
tion of jthe Harrison electoral ticket.
They are agreed.upbn another thing7
and that is that they must all work
for the
party.
destruction of theTDemocratlc
They simply differs to the
method to be adopted to do this, one
faction' believing the best way to do
it is to; run a ticket of its own, while
the other believes the best way is to
vote' for the Third party ticket. If
they succeed in either what has the
Third party man gained? In the
first case he has lost his candidate
for President and helped to elect -a!
Republican in the Second case hej
has helped to split the Democratic
party,
and made it . a very easy
mat4
ter for the RepublicaTrf actions when
they get together again, as they willj
to reebver the power they lost twenj
ty years ago. That's what they are
aiming at, although they differ as to
the wiy of accomplishing it, and in
their differing are waging pretty bit
ter war against each other, but the
war will cease when . the spoils come
in sight. It-is singular .that Third

1 - -.--
Formed in character and policy and of mature indg
ment,' as becomes a newspaper forty years old. The
1 imks has by no means got its growth, or abated its
eagerness for continuous improvement. Its leaders
are aware that it is an excellent newspaper every day
in the year, and that year by year it becomes a better
one. It is a clean newspaper, for it respects itself and
its reader?: it is a trustworthy one, for alter coliectirg
the genuine news it has no time or space for the spuri
ous; and it is as nearly complete as skill, experience,
and generous expend tttra-can make it.
The news reports and editorial discussions of Tub
Times will have an unusual interest during the Presi-
uenuai canvass ot tneoming year. Men ot a'l par
ties testify to the nnequaled work cf The Times in
the cause of Tariff Reform, tie issue upon which the
fight for the Presidency is to be made. No newspa
per in the country presents to the minds of the vote:
or the campaign speaker such an abundance of argu
men ts and telling tacts against tee theory and t e
practice of the McKin:ey tariff-makers. But to ic
telligent men ofeither party Xhb Timbi will be a
well-nigh indispensable expositor cf the principles and
the progress of the electoral contest. .. .
Thb Times prints a great deal of information and.
discussion upon topics of special interest to women; its
department of literary news and criticism is notably
full and valuable; it pays much attention to the build
ing up and progress of the new Navy, and to all mat
ters of news and opinion on naval subjects; and it con
cerns itself to tell what is going on in the domains of
art. of sciesce. of religion and education.
