Show conspirator HIMSELF in of the ath instant was published an interview with president cleveland in which occurred the following significant sentence I 1 think it not amiss that conr people be informed authoritatively that the time I 1 at hand when their representatives in congress will be called upon to deal with the financial condition which the aly menace to the country welfare and democrats of utah what dodou think ot una utterance ot your demigod dont you remember that last summer and fall man blood solidly upon a platform which declared protection to be a species ol 01 robbery of the masses for the benefit of the few that a tariff on imports except for the purpose of revenue only wag unconstitutional that alio mckinley law was the sum of all villainies villa inies ind the great cause of our national boes woes that the democratic party was in favor of the use of both gold and silver as money you li avent forgotten it have you dear democratic friends if mr cleveland was dionest then is he honest now the mckinley law is detill intact and under its operations alie robbery still goes on but have you noticed how silent mr cleveland and bis companions in alie government now are in regard to the unconstitutional tariff if mr cleveland told tho truth last fall when ho accepted a nomination on a platform favoring the use of silver i as money what lias happened since then to cause him to change hig mind and become the bitterest enemy of the white metal the conclusion is irre eis tible dear democratic friends and if you are not wholly blinded by partisan must it yourselves that mr cleveland dissembled his views on the silver question for a purpose eliat purpose being that lie might secure a position where lie could serve his goldbug constituency both in this country and england and wreck the most splendid industrial system that tills or any other country ever prospered under in other words to silver haa undergone no change whatever he simply was willing then that for th e nonce his party should use alie tariff as a blind to conceal his real hostility to silver and free coinage democrats of utah alio are in favor of free silver coinage which means all it of you what do you think of alio tude of the gentleman who is now dom in tho white house as alie dictator of the democratic party lie ells you that the present financial condition if the only menace to the country welfare and prosperity and wo siope you will agree with that sentiment if you do agree then nothing is more certain than that you will realize whether you express it or not that you were led to vote tho democratic ticket last fall under a misapprehension of the real facts we believe that for once at least mr cleveland speaks the truth and we trust that you dear demi friends in butali may bo able to look over alio field calmly and despas i and place alie responsibility for abia condition which threatens the welfare and prosperity of the country where it belongs which is upon G rover cleveland and ills secretary of alie treasury who refuse to apply alie only remedy which can give present relief and ward off even temporarily the widespread disaster which will ultimately follow alie failure to rehabilitate silver and clothe it with alio full powers which it gormerly merly possessed the refusal of mr cleveland and to pay out silver instead of cold when the same might be lawfully done is a crime but one degree less than that which resulted in the of silver itself friends of bimetallism especially those of you who believed in the democratic declaration that both cold and dilver should be equally used ae currency ie it possible that any of you still believe that president cleveland is in sympathy with your views and friendly to silver it cannot be you aro unable to cite one single instance wherein he lias shown himself anything but an enemy to the masses and alio special champion and advocate of those who fatten and prosper upon the peoples misfortunes the claim was set up by your leaders dear democratic friends in utah eliat mr cleveland was as good a friend of silver as mr II arrison you probably benevedo eliat although the leaders of your party knew better president harrison was so much a friend of silver that be would have signed a free coinage bill if ho biad been given an opportunity of course you remember that your leaders said that would veto a free coinage bill but you have not forgotten that those bame leaders in congress studiously avoided giving him chanco to affix his bigna 1 ture to a free coinage bill because they f knew that he would sign it of course leavo not forgotten that the democratic house of refused bill which was passed by the al 1 though in that house was a very largo majority ol 01 members who ad been elected on pledges binding them to vote for alie free and unlimited coinage of silver it was a humiliating spectacle it tho falling down of euch a largo number of men at abo behest of silvers worst enemy grover cleveland wo do not feel to gloat over your humiliation milia tion dear democrats of utah tor the future looms up too darkly the augury of disaster does not seem to bo based upon an idle threat the happiness hap pinese and prosperity of too many millions of human beings are menaced to cause your old opponents opp alio republicans to feel to exult because you listen to good advice and turn down the man whose course if lie shall be permitted to pursue it unchecked will result in wrecking tho strongest financial institutions in the land and shako hie very foundations of the superstructure of free on this continent but this much vo do feel constrained to say to you dear democratic friende and we believe the majority of you will coincide with us that president allar arieon had been reelected re elected there would have been no thought or fear of tt serious cliance in iho financial and fiscal policies under which our government and people had prospered the re of specie payments and this brings us to say what ia on our ae well your minds that the real cause of the present condition and unfavorable outlook can bo traced directly to the change in the national administration caused by the success of alie democratic party at tho polls in november last election of grover cleveland and a congress democratic in bogli branches on a platform pledged to reverse alie tariff policy and to seriously interfere the financial policy of the government brought stagnation and paralysis to every interest and industry which must depend for success on the permanent investment of capital that confidence has given way to doubt to such an extent eliat alie entire country is most profoundly distrustful of alie future and the heavy failures which have occurred of banks and in many lines of trade and manufacture in all sections leavo a etring tendency to change tho prevailing feeling of uncertainty into a panic of wide spreading and reaching far proportions and results to us who live in utah as well as all others who live in alie silver producing states and territories the calamity caused by tho democratic policy is doubly heavy that policy as outlined by grover cleveland affects disastrously every interest of the united states and especially does it militate against the people of those sections like butali eliose prosperity is directly attributable to the ability of the owners of valuable mines to work them and dispose of their product at profitable prices the closing down of the mines of butali means business stagnation in all branches of industry if mines generally continue to be worked while silver continues to bo treated as a merchantable commodity and brings a low price in the market it will be because ol 01 a great reduction in the wages paid to the miners ia place of alio generous compensation pensa tion to which they leavo been accustomed cus tomed this means that the farmer and all who depend upon the working of the mines for prosperity will also bo compelled to receive reduced compensation for their own labors and products THE like the democratic press can hold out no fond hopes of a betterment of our general condition under the present democratic regime mr cleveland baah obstinate ignorant self willed and determined man whom some of our republican contemporaries for reasons not clearly apparent to us have clothed with the virtue of honesty but however this may be certain it is that ho ia a very czar in his relations to alie democratic party he cracks the whip and members of congress tremble before him and abjectly bow to his wilk so we fear that alie country will yet more serious trouble than it hag so far encountered and eliat the silver liase act will bo repealed and no other friendly silver law enacted in its place if it shall bo urged that democratic statesmen will prevent cleveland from carrying out his ruinous financial policy we would remind our friends eliat cleveland has never yet been known to defer to the wishes of anybody when they conflicted with his own eliat lie sets up hia own judgment in opposition to eliat of the entire portion of the democratic party which is opposed to him and alie most improbable tiling in the world is alio attempt of the democratic members of congress to pass any bill over mr veto there is no pleasant prospect for alio immediate future there is one consolation left us however and it is alis when tho evil effects of policy are thoroughly understood by the masses there will bo a revulsion of sentiment which willbe sure to eventuate in the restoration of silver to its old and legitimate place in tho coinage of the country by the overthrow of that party which went into power last fall through the blind folly of the american people they cannot be fooled second time |
