' LET US NOT PROTEST TOO MICH.
, Whatever may be said by wise-
-- . acres who wag their heads and say
us nay, we believe in the principle
of bimetr.lism as we do in the infalli
' bility of the geometric truth that the
,4r square on the hypothenuse is equal
' f to the sum of the squares on the
other two sides of the triangle. We
.'.'-.A . reason this question as we might
' any other in geometry, trigonometry,
or conic setions, and arrive at a
' conclusion. As conclusions are
reached by premises in logic, so are
great principles evolved by condi-
i tiona in political economy. The con
ditions may be that wheat is worth
three times as much as corn, or that
lemons are quadruple the value of
v . i apples.' The proportionate supply
"' if-.."
Of ail commodities, meaning their
4 relative degree of plenty or scarcity,
' ' coupled with the law of supply and
demand, regulates all values. So it
' ' may be reasoned that silver is en
f , titled to a raio with gold, as de-
nominated by. the Chicago platform,
because it is an established fact
that the relative quantity of gold and
silver which is available lo the
world's use is in the proportion of
one to sixteen as it has been for cen
,, turies. That is the mathematics of
the question, the logic of it and the
, , evolution of political economics. But
! the objectionable point to the pres
ent financial agitation is the extreme
extent to which it is being carried.
It has gone to the verge of personal
estrangement among men and has
been waged more violently than any
political issue we remember to have
been mooted. It has been made
even the vehicle of communism and
agrarianism by its over-zealous ad
vocates. Even revolution is talk
ed of. We can well remember
when in its infancy the Farmers'
Alliance was setting the whole coun
try agog with a cry about jute bag
ging and cotton ties, and it would
; ... have been supposed by a man up a
tree that if the jute bagging busi-
... . -
ness were not soon patched up all
mankind would be in the soup. A
little later other reliefs were howled
for, including a "deferendum,"
. whatever that may mean. Then
came the cry for sub-treasury and
government ownership of railroads.
Now the only memory of these
things we have is that they were
. : Used by politicians to ramie-dazzle
.' the public for their own designing
., ends, i Free silver is good thing,
; ' but if we do not mlmJ the free silver
' craze will run to the same sort of
seed. - -
ture to1 suggest that. Dr. Young be
placed In charge of the 'Institution
till the legislature meets, and we
think such action would give pleas-'
ureto the entire State .
. The Baltimore Sun very well says:
It is well remembered what a signal
failure Senator Tillman, of South
Carolina, made in his speech before
the Democratic national convention.
It was so Indiscreet and rampant
that Senator Jones, the present
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, felt It his duty to take the
platform and deny that Tillman rep
resented anybody but himself in his
violent declarations. Then only
last week the South Carolina Sena
tor was roundly hissed for extreme
utterances while addressing a meet
ing in Western Pennsylvania. But
the most direct evidenceof Tillman's
waning influence is given by the
Democratic primary elections in
South Carolina. The candidates for
the United States Senatorship
were Governor John Gary
Evans. who is a protege
of Senator Tillman and had
his active support, and Judge Earle
and Colonel Duncan, both of whom
are anti-Tillman men. The returns
show the following result: Evans,
37,400; Judge Earle, 30,057; Duncan,
8,228. As Evans labks 877 votes of
a majority, he and Earle will have to
run in a second primary. This re
sult should certainly stimulate the
courage of the old-line democracy of
South Carolina. It indicates that
the power of the Tillman oligarchy
is on the wane. The people are
waking up, and, with a long pull, a
strong pull and pull all together,
the Democrats of the Palmetto State
may, before long, succeed in placing
their politics back upon the high
plane from which it has been pulled
down by Tillman and his hangers-
on.
