contemporary having recently indulged ita well known propensity to fling naughty dainef at abo e who disagree with it we are glad to publish the following from a well known gentleman who occupies an independent point of view editor herald in common with many of my friends allegood supporters sup of abe principle of bimetallism I 1 bavo been much amused at the recent aero batic beata of the tribune in trying to bold up the hands of the president even under the moat favorable circumstances this would seem tu be a waste of energy it has not been explained bow abe cause of bimetallism in london Parie and berlin would be strengthened if all silver men should abase before mckinley shouting the king can do no wrong great ia abe king but when abe kin gives one band to support the gold standard and stretches the other to coquet with bimetallism silver men generally will have enough denae and consistency not to follow the tribune ludicrous example A few facts will show why not all men believe any good will come out of abe wolcott commission when abe senate waa the sugar tariff the learned senators were unable to agree ae to abe geanine of abe proposed schedules nob eo the gentlemen on wall street abo made millions out ot euer block in few hours even so men are in doubt as to the results ol 01 efforts for international b sot eo abe gentlemen on lombard street who drop the price of silver seven or eight cents in few weeks it ie well known that th rea sentiments of both banker gage ami his assistant are in favor 0 a gold atAn daril which to come people abe old bu of philosophy that a man ie known by the company he keepe it ia true the indian mints may be opened either with or without bimetallism bin ic baa not been made apparent wherein their opening will put us

mckinley hae any reil expectation 0 rehabilitating silver why does he seem to the men who bieh wieh to retie the greenbacks green backs cut it is 0 o this inquiry farther abbat all i ilver men arni whether democratic silver republican or populist ate very deorous de irous using bryana metaphor to act out a burning house no matter who places the ladder if president mckin ley all praise to him but meanwhile sane caba arc under no obligation lo 10 intoxicate thir reason elih the fond delusions ol 01 hope men may bayor a certain with heart and soul may hope for it may pray or i and still have leaona no to believe it is within reach for instance that the tribune editor would so aduca e hit logical faculties ne to be abe to graep the above proposition I 1 admit it is not charitable to impute motives nevertheless th eless alien one who has obtained much of his financial beliefs fidai fi dai alie tribune sees in its columns such an epithet as aih er shriek re acael may ne not be pardoned
