Show ANOTHER C03IPABISON I It is necesary every now and then when our morning contemporary becomes be-comes more than usually selfcontra I dictory and inconsistent to compare iits own utterances made at different dates They are sometimes ludicrous in their refutation of each other And when we consider that there js often very little lapse of time between them it is astonishing that the memory of that organ does not prevent such complete reversals of its own sentiments senti-ments Yesterday we were treated to a terrible ter-rible tirade against the Democratic party for violation of its pledges The fact that law no has yet been possible pos-sible which would carry into effect the principles of the party is kept out of view But all the disasters of the times are charged up to the party and the President in the style which just now is common to the cheapest sort of Republican demagoguery Here is a sample Great industries paralyzed conges tion everywhere Ithe products of the earth do not bring prices sufficient for the production The great indus try of onethird of the republic is absolutely paralyzed The fear of what is to be in case the pledge which the Democracy is liable to fulfil shall be carried out paralyzes eVery fac tory wheel and banks the fires of every forge and furnace Railroads are going into the hands of receivers banks are practically suspended allover all-over the country and although we possess a land unequaled under the sun a land with every variety of soil and climate filled with a thousand slumbering resources equipped for a career of perfect prosperity the real condition of affairs is but little better than that of Turkey or of Egypt or of any other debtenslaved hopeless nation We wonder if the election were t 6 be called again tomorrow how many states north and south the Democracy would carry west of the Allegheny mountains All this it states is due to the fear that the government will carryout carry-out what the people have elected it to perform But let us go back a few days and see what the saIne G I hand wrotgsas the cause of all these troubles Speaking of John Sherman our morning contemporary said ont on-t e 5th last He does not know the truth but the reason the men are out of employment In Iowa Kansas Michigan and Wisconsin Wis-consin that the mills are closed through New England and that the few men out employment in the silver sil-ver states do not compare with the number in bther states is all due to the fact 1 that the real money of this country has been reduced to a little mQre than 8 per capita and 2 because be-cause the bankers inaugurated this panic last spring for the sole purpost of having silver absolutely and utterly utter-ly destroyed as money and it got to be a storm too great for them to either eith-er ride or control They set the press of New York to work to declare that the Sherman law was the cause of the decline when through the misfortunes misfor-tunes in Australia trouble came to England and she had to unload such securities as she could Then the bankers of New York closed their vaults refusing credit to good men and kept up the act until their depositors de-positors took alarm and began to draw out their deposits and then it transpired that there was not a solvent sol-vent bank in New York city That was what was the matter Compare the two utterances They are totally different in explaining the cause of the troubles in the country When pitching into John Sherman it was the demonetization of silver that caused all the evil A few days la terwhen pitching into the Democratic party it is the fear of the people of something that the people demanded themselves that is the moving cause Our neighbor is nothing if not inconsistent incon-sistent |
