Show NOT A BAD PLAN the two national parties republican f and democratic and the prohibition and peoples party have recognized the importance odthe of the silver question and three of them have declared in favor of bimetallism the senate satiate of the united states has passed a bill for the free and unlimited coinage of silver on the existing ratio of 10 to 1 the of the 9 united states bag has declared himself a friend of silver and in favor of lie its enlarged use as money and has arranged arr aneed for an international monetary conference in which all the great nations of europi will participate all except bassia which has not yet given in her adhesion to the echeme all ibis goes to show conclusively that the silver question has assumed ae umed such preparations that it cannot not be coughed down or ignored and that the agitation will go on until a settlement shall be reached whereby jaenice will be done and protection given to every business interest the presidents entla real sentiments of 0 true friendliness for silver being now well known it is believed that should the house pass the free coinage bill he would eign sign it he may not do so in fact the house may consider neider co it expedient to delay action on the bill until after the bol bold ing of the international conference in in the bope hope that something satisfactory will come cf it there are a great many republicans republic public ans and quite a number of democrats in the house aa as well as in the senate who believe that the passage of i the ohe free coinage bill by the senate at this time was not just the proper thing to do that the result of the monetary conference should have been awaited that if it nothing came of the conference then all could unite and put a free coinage bill through at the next session with the assurance that president harrison would give it his approval one of the results which have been predicted should he the united states undertake to rehabilitate filver without the operation cooperation co of the great foreign powers is I 1 hat that gold would be driven out and the country consigned to a silver basis this fear however is not shared by the pro silver suver advocates they say that the united states la Is enough to protect itself and singly to alln tain fain true bimetallism now comes a foreign writer ani nn folds a plan for forcing upon europe bimetallism and compelling the free coinage as it appears to us to have merit we will state it briefly the writer first proceeds to show the calamitous effects of the mcknley mckinley law laly on foreign countries and then points cut how that law can be made uee use of in a way probably never dreamed of by there who ware were instrumental in its creation and passage by the proposed plan tha the free coinage of silver would be brought about in one or more or all of the great in du atrial nations of E europe drope and none cf of who have opposed the existing tariff would regret the oppressiveness of it the plan ia Is based on reciprocity the writer claims that if the congress of the united states were to enact a law which would give the manufactured articles of an any y foreign country which opened its mints on equal terms with gold to the coinage of silver the right of entrance into the united states at a greatly reduced tariff rate while maintaining the present tariff law as regards importations from all countries where silver is not given equal privileges withhold with gold at the national minte silver would soon bo be restored to the coinage cf of the world for example if france franco should accept the offer of the united states and should declare herself ready to open her mints to the free coinage cf bullion because of a reduction of CO 50 per cent in her favor in the existing tariff of the united states every manufacturing nation in europe which should refrain from rehabilitating silver would be excluded from the markets of our country and france would become a great celler seller of manufactured articles to the united states as well as the purchaser of immense quantities of american silver the enormous wealth which ench such commercial conditions would pour into the lap of france might overcome many fold the opposition and hostility of other great manufacturing countries which hesitated to meet us as half way but if germany and england should undertake to flood france with cheap silver and thus show their enmity in even a more marked degree to the product of our mines the industrial prosperity erity of france would triple itself through importations into the united states alone and switzerland belgium and all other conat where the frano federal is the kr I 1 unit of value might be relied upon to stand by france but this could not continue long without bankrupting every other industrial nation in europe and one by one all the foreign nations which have degraded all silver ver would be forced to that metal to its proper dignity as one of the money metals of the world TUB tim NATIONAL democratic convention rejected a tariff plank which declared pi inay that ha the democratic party part y dc dees ill not propose
