He Talks to Grand Army Visitors and to Pennsylvania Farmers. Maj. McKinley was visited yesterday at his Canton, Ohio, home by the Grand Army veterans of Stark county and by a dele- gation numbering 2,000 from Somerset county, Pa. He welcomed both parties of visitors with speeches The reception of the old soldiers was en- thusiastic. The Women’s Relief Corps and thousands of Cantonians followed the par- ade to the McKinley home. Every G. A. R. post in the county and many from adjoin- ing counties were represented. Maj. Mc- Kinley was given an ovation and was inter- rupted by cheers at short intervals. Col. J. J. Clark presented the delegation. Great Thing to Have Been a Soldier. To the veterans the republican candidate spoke as follows: “It 1s a very great honor to me, and one which [ shall always cherish, to receive calls from my old comrades of the war living in this neighborhood. (Applause.) You are here today, not as soldizrs, but as citizens, citizens of the best govern- ment in the world, made better because of the services you rendered it nearly a third of a century ago. (Renewed applause.) I bid you welcome to my home and express to you my most profound gratitude and thanks. es | be a great thing to have been a soldier in the late war. [t is an evi. dence of the highest patriotism and love of country, for patriotism means ta be will- ing to give up life, healih or strength if country demands it. And you were will- ing to do so and_ uttered your patriotism on many hundreds of fields during that war. (Cheers.) A United Country.” “Happily we are a united country. Com- ing to this city to give congratulations are not only those who served on the Union side during that great struggle, but also the men who served on the confederate side. Both have been here to tender con- gratulations and give me assurances of support. Now all are citizens of a com- mon Union and all ready to battle for the Union and for the honor and integrity of the government of the United States. Thank God, all sectional lines have been obliterated, and men from all parts of our common country are today, though having differed in the past, marching un- der one banner, upon which is inscribed national honor, the maintenance of law and order. (Great cheering.) “Patriots Then, Patriots Now.” “Iam glad to meet you here today. I was proud of you when in the field. I am proad of you as citizens of the Union, which you helped to save. (Applause.) No grander, no better, no more glorious army ever march- ed to battle or for a nobler cause than the army of which you were a part. (Great cheering.) You were good citizens before you went to war, you were good soldiers in the war, you have been good citizens ever sirce, standing by the same old flag. (Applause.) You were patriots then, you are patriots now. You know no politics in your Grand Army posts. (Cries of ‘No, no.) But you know patriotism when you see it.” - ‘The Pennsylvanians’ Turn. When the handshaking was reached there was a rush. The delegation from Somerset county, Pennsylvania, was approaching, and it was feared there would not be time for all the veterans to get to McKinley. The Pennsylvanians had five bands and many banners and emblems. The trip was arranged by the Linc>in Club of Somerset, G. R. Se president. This delegation of farmers came over 2% miles. State Sera- tor Norman B. Critchfield made the intro- ductory address. Three times Maj. McKin- ley began to speak, and each time was !n- terrupted by cheering. When he concluded there was unusual eagerness to shake his hand. Seeking the Right. In his remarks to his Pennsylvania visit- ors Maj. McKinley said: “I do not recall a time since the days of the civil war that there has been so much solicitude for the rightful outcome of a na- tional election as this year. All the peopie are reading and studying and informing themselves in a larger degree than ever be- fore. “Popular inquiry was never so great and popular interest was never so profound. It is gratifying, too, that the masses of our countrymen are seeking ‘he right for the sake of the right, that they may pursue the right. They want to know only what is the best for the country, what will truly promote their own welfare and insure the grandest results for the common good. (Ap- plause.) Democrats Torn and Divided. “Discord reigns in all others. Our time- honored opponent, the democratic party, is torn and divided. Two national conventions have been held by it, and two national tickets presented, and their platforms are totally different on every subject and in al- most every section. “The populist party has merged its organ- ization into that of the Chicago democratic and St. Louts silver organizations, and their allies are, for the most part, harmonious, except that each one has a distinct and dif- ferent candidate for Vice Presidea (Great laughter and applause.) Republicans United. “Happily, the republican party was never more closely united than now, both in fact and in spirit, and there was never better reasons for such union and never greater necessity for it than now. It is wedded, de- votedly wedded, to parity principles. It stands as it has always stood, for an Amer- ican protective tariff, which shall raise enough money to conduct the several de- partments of the government, including lib- eral pensions to the Union soldier. A tariff will stop debts and deficiencies, and make the treasury of the United States once more safe and sound tn every particular. (Applause.) Reeiprocity and a Home Market. “It stands for a reciprocity that seeks out the markets of the world for our surplus agricultural and manufacturing products without surrendering a single day's wages that belongs to the American workingman. (Applause.) “It believes in preserving a home market for the American farmer (applause), in opening the American factory for. the American workingman (applause), and opening up a foreign market wherever that can be done with profit to all the great interests of the United States. (Renewed applause.) Dollars as Good as Gold. “It is, too, for sound money (great cheer- ing); every ‘dollar worth one hundred cents (renewed cheering); every dollar as good as gold (continued cheering), and it is opposed alike to the free and unlimited coinage of silver and the issuance of irredeemable paper money, to which the allied parties seem firmly committed. (Great applause.) It has always kept silver at a parity with gold. It proposes to keep silver money in circulation and preserve it side by siie, gold and silver and paper, each the equal of the other and each the equal of the best, and the best never to be inferior to the best money known to the commercial na- tions of the world. (Tremendous chcer- ing.) Financial Honor. “We cannot have commercial growth and expansion without national and individual honor. (Applause and cries of ‘That's right.') We cannot have commercial pros- perity without the strictest integrity both of government and citizen. (Renewed ap- plause and cries of ‘That's right.’) The financial honor of this government fs of too vast Importance, is entireiy too sacred to be the foot ball of party politics. (Great applause. Cries of ‘Good, good.’) . “The republican party has maintained 1 and is pledged to maintain it. It has more than once stood between good faith ard dishonor, and when it gave up the con- trol of the government our national honor had never before been so high and un- questioned. (Applause.) The republican party taxed the credit of the government in the days of the war to its utmost ten- sion to preserve the government itself, which, under God, it was happily enabled to do, Following that mighty struggle it lifted our credit higher than it had ever been before, and made it equal to the oldest and wealthiest nations of the world.” (Applause and cries of “That’s right.”’) ———+e+. Gone Home. After spending the day in visiting dif- ferent parts of the city to see the sights, the Beethoven Maennerchor of New York city left last evening for home, the mem- bers of the Saengerbund going to the train to see their guests off. —————— Library chairs, worth $7.50, sell for $3.75 at Moses’ furniture sale.—Advt. MAINTAINING THE PARITY When Gold Should Be Exchanged for Silver. Secretary Carlisle Tells How the Government Has Been Unable to Keep the Two Metals Circalating. Secretary Carlisle has written the fol- lowing letter on the subject of the main- tenance of the parity between gold and sliver: BAR HARBOR, Me., September 12, 1896. Mr. James P. Helm, Louisville, Ky.: My Dear Sir: Your letter asking how the silver dollars, which contain a quantity of bullion commercially worth only about fifty-three cents each, are maintained at a parity with gold, notwithstanding the fact that the government does not directly redeem them, or certificates issued upon them in gold, is received, and, as a great many inquiries upon the same subject are addressed to me daily from different parts of the country, which it is impracticable to answer in detail, I.will take advantage of your favor to answer them all at once. Coined on Public Account, All the standard silver dollars issued from the mints since the passage of the act of 1878, now amounting to more than $433,000,000, have been coined on public ac- count from bullion purchased by the gov- ernment, and are legal tender in payment of all debts, public and private, without regard to the amount, except when cther- wise expressly stipulated in the contract between the parties. They belong to the government when coined, and they are paid out by the government at a parity with gold for property and services of all kinds, end received from the people at a parity with gold in the payment of all public dues and demands. The government has made no discrimination whatever be- tween the coins of the two metals—gold having been paid on its coin obligations when gold was demanded, and silver hav- ing been paid when silver was demanded. Under this policy the coinage has been so limited by law and the policy of the Treasury Department that the amount coined has not become so great as to drive the more valuable coin—gold—out of use, and thus destroy the basis of our mone- tary systems, and so long as the two met- als are of unequal commercial value at the ratio established by law, this limita- tion upon the coinage is, in my opinion, absolutely essential to the maintenance of their parity in effecting exchanges. It constitutes the principal safeguard for the protection of our currency against the de- preciation which the experience of all countries has shown would otherwise re- sult from the attempt to use two legal tender coins of the same denomination but of unequal value. If the limitation were removed, confidence in the ability of the government to preserve equality in the exchangeable value of the coins would be destroyed, and the parity would be lost long before the amount of silver coinage had become really excessive. Difference With Free Coinnge. With free and unlimited coinage of silver on account of private individuals and cor- porations, the government would be under no moral obligation to maintain the parity, and, moreover, it would be unable t6 do so, because the volume of overvalued silver forced into the circulation by a legal tender provision would soon expel the gold from the country, or put such a premium upon it that it would be impossible to procure and hold in the treasury a sufficient amount to provide for the redemption of silver on presentation. In order to maintain the parity under such conditions the govern- ment would be compelled from the begin- ning to exchange gold for silver dollars, and their paper representatives, whenever demanded, just as it now exchanges gold for its own notes when demanded, and as the coinage of silver dollars would be un- limited, and, therefore, constantly increas- ing, a point would soon be reached where it would be impossible to continue the pro- cess of redemption. The implied obligation of the government to preserve the value of the money which it coins from its own bullion and for its own use, and which it forces its citizens to receive in exchange for their property and services, has been supplemented by two statutory declarations, which sub: ntially pledge the public faith to the maintenance of that policy. The act of July 14, 1890, after providing that the Secretary of the Treasury should, urder such regulations as he might pre- scribe, redeem the treasury notes issued in the purchase of silver bullion in gold or silver coin at his discretion, declares that it is “the established policy of the United States to maintain the two metals on a parity with each other upon the pres- ent legal ratio, or such ratio as may be provided by law,” and the act of Novem- ber 1, 1893, again declares it to be “the policy of the United States to continue the vse of both gold and silver as standard morey, and to coin both gold and silver into money of equal intrinsic and ex- changeable value, such equality to be se- cured thrcugh international agreement or by such safeguards of legislation as will insure the maintenance of the parity of value of the coins of the two metals and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the markets and in the payment of debts.” With knowledge of these assurances the pecple have received thege coins, and have relied confidently upon the good faith of their government, and the confidence thus inspired has been a most potent factor in the maintenance of the parity. The pub- lic has been satisfied that so long as our present monetary system is preserved the government will do whatever its moral obligations and express declarations re- quire it to do, and very largely as a con- sequence of this confidence in the good faith of the executive authorities the sil- ver coins have not depreciated in value. Redeeming Silver in Gold. It is not doubted that whatever can be lawfully done to maintain equality in the exchangeable value of the two metals will be done whenever it becomes necessary, and althovgh silver dollars and silver cer- tificates have not up to the present time been received in exchange for gold, yet if the time shall ever come when the parity cannot -be otherwise maintained such exchanges will be made. It is the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury, and of all other public officials, to execute in good faith the policy declared by Con- gress, and whenever he shall be satisfied that the silver dollar cannot be kept equal in purchasing power with the gold dollar, except by receiving it in exchange for the gold dollar when such exchange is de- mended, it will be his duty to adopt that ecurse. But if our present policy is ad- hered to and the coinage is kept within reasonable limits, the means heretofore employed for the maintenance of the parity will doubtless be found sufficient in the future, and our silver doilars and silver certificates will continue to circulate at par with gold, thus enabling the peo- ple to use both metals instead of one only, as would be the case if the parity were destroyed by free coinage. Yours truly, (Signed) J. G. "CARLISLE. SPOKE IN POURING RAIN. Mr. Bryan Addressed 20,000 at Lex- ington, Ky. At Lexington, Ky., yesterday, in spite of a pouring rain, Mr. Bryan, the democratic candidate for President, was listened to by 20,000 persons. When he had finished the first half of his speech, in which he review- ed in a lively manner the attitude of the two parties toward free silver since 1873, he was interrupted by a procession, which occupied more than thirty minates in pass- ing. When the rear had passed Mr. Bryan re- sumed as follows: “If I were to talk to you from now until night, I could not more than emphasize the) mottoes which have passed by you in procession. “I notice one motto, drawn with letters not altogether according to the latest pat- terns, but representing a sentiment that ought to find lodgment in the memories of all. That is ‘High Money, Low Times.’ I challenge you to find in any of the speeches that will be made this year by the oppo- nents of free silver a single sentence that contains as much of political economy and common sense as is contained in that phrase ‘High Money, Low Times.’ (Ap- plarse,) It seems that these things which are hidden from those who were all-wise are revealed unto those who in the esti- ——- maticn of the financis are but babes and cklings. saw another motto—Our Barns Are Fvll, But Our Pockets Are Empty!’ In that sentence is a ae twenty years of farming history. smiles upon your huskerdry, your soil gives forth in rich profusion, but, accgyi}ing to the experience of the farmer, with All that he can do with his industry, his economy, hts patient to!l he finds that the load of the American farm grows harder jeyery year. (Applause.) “There was one ito that impressed me more deeply than any other motto, and I want you to carryit home with you and bear it upon your memories every day, 80 that you can read if} when you ris2 up and again when you g0 t8’bed, so that it will be @ pert of your political life. It is a short motto and containg put few letters. It is, ‘We Mean Business.’ (Great applause.) “I. want to show you what that motto mears. There is no one thing that I have said with greater earnestness than that the humble business men of this country, scat- tered all over our land, have as much right to use the name of ‘business man’ as those who have large business interests in the great centers and assume the right to he considered the only business men of this ccuntry. I want you to help make my statement true. I want you to prove my statement true by saying that you under- stand that election day is the most im- pertent business day in all the year.” From Lexington Mr. Bryan and his party traveled to Maysville, where the candidate made a sixth speech at night to a large crowd. From Maysville he returned to Lexington, and from there went to Harri- man, pent ata Ly hour. Today he will Pass over into North Carolina, speaking at Asheville in the afterncon. ia - BYNUM APPOINTS COMMITTEES. The Chairman of National Demo- cratic Party Selects Assistants. Chairman W. D.

The propositions for fusion were matfe “if” a letter sent by W. ©. Spreance and Manlove Hayes, the reg- ular electors from New’ Castle and Kent counties, to James G.'Sraw and D. M. W: scn, the Addicks eléctors, and were ap- proved by the state central committee. It was suggesjed that all four of the electors above named should resign, and that two cther persons be selected by the national republican committee, who, with Mr. Fooks, who is on both tickets, should stand as the regular republican candidates for electors; or that one of the two en each side to be aesignated by lot should resign, and leave the remaining two with Fooks as the can- didates. In the letter it was urged that the compromise, if effected, would insure the Eroduction of the full republican vote in November, and it was confidently expected that the Addicks men would accept ‘the preposition.

Gold Democrats Retire. One of the greatest surprises on the eve of the state democratic convention was the announcement made at New Haven, Conn., last night that the democratic state cen- tral committee, which had been composed of a majority of gold standard men, nad uncénditionally resigned in favor of the Bryan wing of the state democracy. Republican Primary in Philadelphia. The fight of last August between the ad- ministration and the Penrose-Durha:in wing of the republican party in Philadelphia was renewed with much vigor at the repub- lican primary election last night. The Pen- ros forces massed their strength on Alex- ander Crow for sheriff, James R. Young, to succeed Congressman Reyburn in the fourth district; Charles L. Brown against Representative Harry Walton, to succeed to Senator Porter’s seat, and Representa- tive Bare, to succeed’ Senator George Handy Smith, With both sides claiming victory in closely contested wards, it 1s difficult t> reach any decision. Last night it looked as though Crow would most like- ly be defeated, and that the anti-adminis- tration forces’had been victorious in the other three instances, The position of the thirtieth ward is uncertain, but should it be for Smith he will most likely Le re- turned.

Democratic Vote Fell Of 23,000 From 1802. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. LEWISTON, Maine, September 15, 1896. The election brought out the largest re- publican vote and largest republican plural- ity ever cast in the state. Returns from 252 towns give Powers, 58,450; Frank, 23,641; |.Ciifford, 600; scattering, 3,064. Republican plurality, 34,700. In the same towns in '94 Cleaves had 19,998, Johnson 22,058, scattering 5,5: plurality, 27,940. If the remaining towns com2 in the same ratio of gain, the total vote will stand: Republican, 81,060; demccrat, 32,000; gold democrat, 1,000; scattering, 4,600; total, 118,600. The governor's vote in full in 1892 Republican, 67,990; democrat, 5 tering, 6,965; total, 130,262. Republican plu- rality, 12,503. It will be seen that while the republican vote has increased nearly 20 per cent from 1892, indicating that many democrats must have voted the republi- can ticket, the democratic vote fell off 23,- 000, as there were only about 1,000 votes cast for Clifford by the sound money dem- ocrats. There was undoubtedly from 18,000 to 20,000 democrats who refused to go to the polls and vote for Bryan and free silver. Messrs. Reed, Dingley, Milliken and Bou- telle are re-elected to Congress by the largest pluralities they ever received. Reed by 10,500, Dingley by 11,500, Milliken by 12,000, and Boutelle by nearly the same. The Senate is unanimously republican, and of the 151 members it’s doubtful if the democrats have elected ten. The republicans have carried every cour- ty and elected every county officer in the state. The republican pluralities for gover- nor in the several counties compared with 1594 are as follows: stood: scat- Androscoggin Arcostook .. Cumberland . Franklin Hancock Kennebec Knox .. Lincoln Oxford Penobscot Piscataquis Sagadahoc Somerset Waldo Washington Socks 4. Bath, the home of Arthur Sewall, demo- cratic ‘candidate for Vice President, gives Powers a plurality of 784, a gain of 160 from 184. Sewall’s own ward goes against him. How It Was Done. Of the sweeping victory of the republi- cans of Maine, the Evening Journal, the paper of Congressman Dingley, chairman of the ways and means committee, will say this evening: “Great as were the expec- tations of the best-posted Maine republi- cans as to the extent of the republican victory In Maine, the actual result goes far txyond their utmost expectations. Nothing, even in war times, ever equaled it. Even the abnormal republican plurality two years ago, which was due entirely to the fact that the democrats deliberateiy stayed at home and attempted no contest, is exceeded by the plurality of Monday. The republican victory this year has been gained after most determined efforts of the Bryan free silver democrats to press their cause on the stump and to organize and bring out their forces in the field. And yet the Bryan democrats are routed so utterly as to significantly indicate the strong trend of public opinion against the populist-anarchistic and currency degen- eration cause, which the ‘boy orator’ leads. Such a great victory as Maine accords for the right has not been achieved by repub- lican votes alone. Unquestionably a con- siderable number of sound money demo- crats have risen above partisanship and given their votes directly to the republican ticket in this grave national peril. Some have voted for the sound money deme- cratie candidate for governor, Mr. Clifford, and more have refused to go to the pol Our vote is more than a party triumph; is a triumph of patriotism. “It demonstrates, as did the great upris- ing of war democrats at the beginning of the war for the preservation of the Union, that when real peril comes to the country from the assaults of a common enemy, the people can be relied upon to rise to the height of patriotism. The good effect of Maine's victory on the country cannot be exaggerated. Our campaign has been watched by thousands in every part of the country as never before, and our grand vic- tery will carry encouragemen: to the hosts who are fighting for protection and sound money from the Atlantic to the Pacific; from the lakes to the gulf. From this time ferward we may expect the sam2= wave which has been felt in Maine will be felt throughout the Union. McKinley's elec- tion by a large majority is assured. The increase of Speaker Reed’s plurality in his district from 8,000 two years ago to 10,000 now is a more gratifying indication @ the people's appreciation of an able and faith- ful servant. Mr. Reed has already been, or will have been next March, twenty years in the national house, and has just been elected for his eleventh term. This ts the longest term in the House of Representa- tives ever givei to any Maine statesman, and very rarely in the history of any state.” —__.___ AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c Today.
