Aa Article of Interest to the Publie?
Something for Mr. Graham's
Perusal.
Kdilor Union Turn s:
Jonksvillk, Miiy 18.?Mr. Graham
of Newberry lias naked nic through your
paper to tell why lam in favor of free
silver. On account of sickness 1 could
not comply with his request earlier. Mr.
GnUuun says lie lias never heard any silver
advocate give or attempt to give any
reason for wanting silver restored to its
pioper place and made equal with gold.
He also goes on in a favorable way to
Smith of Georgia (a strong gold advocate)
and says lie lias given in his Atlanta
or Georgia speeches the best argument
in favor of gold ttiat he has heard.
Now if Mr. Graham will go back to
'90 and '1)4 and seo what Hiis) Mr. Smith
said in favor of silver when ho was opy
posed to the gold standard. (That is
before lie changed.) In 1890 Smith advocated
in a letter to an alliance man,
tlie issueing of cureney Imsed on non
{ erisliable products, t he free coinage of
silver and a leg.il tender currency to retire
the bonds. Now was not (lint a
goou argument for silver and was it not
a better argument against a gold or
single standard.
]>et it be argument or not it does not
matter, but it shows clearly tliat .Smith
saw tlie evil of the eon traction that had
been rtuised by demonetizing silver,
i i which was simply taking tke money
quality from silver and disregarding it at
home. Just here let uie stiy that I do
not Ijelieve in silver nor gold as a proper
liasiy for thecurreney of the country; hecause
tlie supply of gold ami silver is
A constantly changing and there is no way
1/ of telling or even approximating the
amount of silver and gold ore tlmt is in
the ground.
Now as to the amount of timber, coal
or iron that is in a country you can make
an accurate estimate and tell how long
tlie supply will last, with an increasing
population, but not so with silver and
gold, and especially gold. You may find
a rich dejwsit today and work it out toorrow
and maylx? never find any morein? <
the mine ii exhausted. So you see t hat ,
It l * - " ... -

be made a buns tor our currency. I am ]

/- (, Sow liack to Mr. Smith again. Jle 1
then advocated the ixsuring of legal
c^rency to ret ire the )*>nds v..<v t
iie cT?nngftt.'Vft isou ncsaw the importance \
of retiring the lionds, of which there is .
so much complaint, lie knew them and
knows now that there is no gold to retire 1
with or to pay theinolT with, lie saw j
what trouble was caused by taking from >
sdlver its money jHiwer and reducing or
contracting the voliuue of the eurreney
by burning the imper money, etc. In (
Atlanta or some part of Georgia lately I
lie told lhcin not to lie afraid of |
.^Sdtl.dOO.OOU worth of 1m?ii(1s to In*
paiil in gold. What a \yoiulerlul change
lias come over him since 1S1M. Will Air.
(iridium tell me what he thinks caused
tlie eluiugc?
He also said that if silver was restored
and coined at l<> to l that it would drive
the gold out and we would have only one
(a (diver) standard.
Tray tell me why gold would leave
home and what would it gain l?y leaving
liome? Mr. Smith knows that the government
has no gold to leave or send oil', and
its for the gold s|M'culutors, that lias the
gold, their gold had liettcr leave than to
-day lirre to buy up votes and aid in the

gold np", Now I have partly given my
argument in favor ofsilxcr wliicli is on
Mr. Smith's line. when lie was a fret'
silxcr salvocate. In IH1M l?' made ji
sjlxer s|K*ecli in which lie said thai he
Mieved a single gold standard to In>
dangerous and unwise, and ealeulated to
contract if* currency, check industry
and turn honest men out of places. That
jw the honest dollar as they call't Air.
"faith's views were right then and has
been verified.
1 want ti. sax something almiil the
Ijsute and wicked inpliyc lor demonetizing
silver. In IS7*J or |s~o a London
capitalist and a large owner of American
ImivJ.s which we had the right to pax
principal and interest in silver, was scut
over to America to hrilx- or IkiiiiImhizIc
Congress and have il (lcmoueti/ed as it
luul licen in France. Fngland and
Holland; with .>o(Mi,iHHio In-ar liisexpenmh
in the dirty joh. Now where have our
Congressmen Inch that they did not
unearth the shameful plot. Too many
of theui have been lik?* Smith and Carlisle,
, working to put the honest dollar in a
rascals jxicket. it may lie intentional or
unintentional. It matters not tlie work
has licen (lane and the result the same.
To think that native Inii'ii Americans arc
tnduy slwuihlcr to shoulder with Ktirnficaii
capitalists in an attempt to rol> honest
men who !<>" iu)r?i lor a iiMim 01 ini-ir
lalior ami put it into the jux-ket of 1 k>ml
ladders who never added one dollars
worth of wealth to any country isenongh
to make \ iitue and justice shudder.
ISarncst Seyd was seal from London
to have the money ?|ii:ilitv taken from
sil\er I>y congress, and why did he sueeted
mi well? Simply Ixrause il was to
the interest of the American and Kmojiean
I mi id holders, just the suite.
They made Id |*Tcent. on the ojH'ration.
Now notice in Kngland, under
fla-law at that time if imr either war
worth only '.hi cents and these K?mU
the 1'nited States that WW: iu-M |,v ,jM
capitalists eonhl Is-paid in silver uwi
?,vol.j,.l.lm ri5h, ,, ; o,.'.,,;'1

|M-r cent, to the \;;I tlu ir Ik. m|s t(

SKRMXHJ, invested in bonds.
With interest at four i?er cent. Mr.
Vanderbilt's annual interest income
would amount %?J,4U0,U00; that is what
wo have to psiy in gold.
IIsul it not. have boon fur silver demonetization
we could have paid the
interest in standard silver dollars which
wan worth in Knrope or Jiondon only IK)
cents. So you see why the bond holder
wants si single gold standout. In thsit
trsuissiclion. Mr. N-yd, it ho held and
represented as much as Mr. Vsvndcrbilt
did, (and I exju-ct lie did and more.) it
adceu to his suinuul interest income
orJtioT i?er sissy.
Now 1 think it is plsiinly seen why
bond holders want si single gold standard.
Now as for proof of this interference
and lxnnboozling by London
capitalists, T offer the followiinr. taken
from the Congressional Kecord of April
9,1872.page 'J032. Mr. Ilootier, of]
Massachusetts, chairman of the committee
on coinage, (if I am correctly informed,)
used these words.
"Earnest. Seyd, of ljondon. a distinguished
writer and bullionisi, who is
now hew. has given attention to the
subject of mint coinage. After having
examined the tlrst draft of this bill lie
made various sensible, suggestions which
the. committee adopted and embodied
J in (he bill."
So von sec a London 1 ui:d holder dictated
the bill. Now think of the vast
amount invested in bonds by men on
this side, of the sen whose interest is the
same and identical with those on the
other side and yon ran plainly realize
and see whut a mighty power was in
favor of throwing down sunl crippling
the money of our fathers, silver. Who
wonders at that combuuition of the
bond holders of all countries. Gold
standard in Euroiie shows a picture of
colossal fortunes on one luuid and )>overty
and distress on the other. The
most of those fortiuics weiv not earned.
They were gained by swapping dollars
and lilched from honest, unsusjioeting
toil by wicked and dishonest legislation.

r There is no doubt alnnd there Iming
an organized movement on foot to
crash the dispensary law, and the piwer
of the pulpit lias liocn invoked. At
regular intervals minister > will take a
text ami try to make it lit Ike disp ?:isary.
The, principle argument t!u*y einplo>
is to denounce the new law giving to
our common school fan I the net profits
of the dispensary, and t!ie infamy of
educating children with money gained,
through si\ch ends is liehl up to contempt
and execration.
The dispensary is an experiment, and
it can and doubtless will be improved
upon, an I its most objectional feateves
stricken out or in nlilied. We have
al ways opposed the eonst'ihle feature, and
are gin-I to know tlial the necessity for
such oli'ne.rs is gradually haing alioiisiied.
Opposition to tin; dispensary is fast
breaking down, and when en: people
realize the tact that the lav: is engrafted
upon the statute books of our state, ami
must anil will be enforced, an 1 that it is
lawless to try to obstruct th" otll uvs in
a discharge of their duty, tiien tlie constables
can bo withdrawn, and the enforcement
of the law left to municipal
an 1 county officers.
j ll.it there is no consistency in those
Taini-dars trying to build up a prejudice
against the dispensary 0:1 account of tin;
pvotHs going to the public school fund.
Under the old saloon system town
children we.e oducutod in uiy long years
witjii license money derived from lurrobins,
an I we do not see tin justice in
oppos eg iho usoof asiinular fund to iinprove
th* minds of poor country children,
if it is wrong to now use the profits from
tiled, pmsary to support country sdiools,
w.o i! not et[iially wrong and sinful to
apply the license money from Ikiitooiih
to sustain free schools in our towns and
cities? And yet, while the children
living in incorporated places were odu?n
I for years from whiskey monc\.
not one word in commendation of the
.vp": 'tlcrCt! from tin puipit.
>1 lvr^ \vi?o iii?\" m'm'i- 1 m* ?l
up country schools had also denounced
the practice of fleecing barrooms to
sustain town schools, (lion wu c;>uH
son;.- consistency in their prose: it |) xsition.
\\ e see nothing wrong ia turning this j
money to such a commendable purpose. I
As the oi l preacher remarked when the ,
gambler offered him ?"? for his church.
with tli exblunatioii that ho lyyd Won it j
from a 1- sr-keep.er at cards. ''Tnis hill |
has h.I'll serving the devil long enough,
and I will put it to the service ol' God."
But it is tiring at long range to raise a
['ory against the education of our children
wit!i "whiskey money." \\ bile it is true
our new constitution den rati (led that all (
profits fioui the dispensary 1?' given to j
public schools, the ollieers in < 'olumbia
h.a\ e so interpreted the law as t ? depri\e
our poor eliil Iren of tliis aid, mid it v. ill
I- years before a dollai cd the dispensary

The disp.-usury law is here to slay, It
is engrailed in tho constitution of our
S'.ati, ami you will never live to s;-c it

AHUSE OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS.
Just criticism of public ofiiciuls is
always right and proper, and is one of
tlio safe-guards of government, and
always assists iti the preservation of
good conduct upon the part of tho.-s*
whose duty it is to discharge public
duties.
It is one of the great blessings of a
free people to have i'roulnni of the pre>s
\Yhero tho conduct of those who are the
custodians of miUli.* !.rr..;^ .. .. > ?. ....
? 1^.Kr..v KUIII1.1 VyUII I 'I*
constantly under the eye el' the .
This is the highest guarantee of u pure
and wise government.
The criticism is, ho a over, often l.t
down to a low plane, and the o dicers of
government become the objects of low
abuse, and are. held up to the public as
objects of scorn and comcmpi, simply
because they dure to differ 1 rom the
opinion and sentiment of those who own
and publish newspapers. The discussion
now going on in the newspapers
over the gold and silver ipicalion h;ts
gone beyond the bounds of ;.!1 decency.
Nothing has Ik-cu low. unwritten
which an abusive - vocabulary cuiild
dictate; no language, however low and
unrefined, has been omitted from liu*
discussion, and the press of the . ouis.tr;,
lias lecomo the. medium through which
new abusive epithets have in , <! originated
in this heated discussion.
So far lvrs this abuse been an led that
\ery little credence can be given o? any
.-tatement of facts which einiuatvs trosn
