Judge Parker, in his letter of acceptance, expresses the | desire to accomplish a wise and bene- ficial reformation of the tariff without | creating uncertainty or instability. Un- | der such assurances no one need fear radical or disturbing readjustments. = *"The fimancial policy of the Republi- can party has always been a blunder- {ing orle. The Civil War came at a time |when the country had but a small sup- , Py of either gold or silver, owing to the State bank note system, which had ex- isted for years and which had diverted the gold and .silver production of our country to other lands. The Republi- can party therefore devised the green- back and made it a legal tender for all debts, public and private, except cus- toms dues. Having issued a large amount of these during the war, the | wise thing to have done would have been to gradually restore specie pay- | ments by covering the greenbacks | with gold and silver produced from our mines. But, no; the national banks , were determined to monopolize tie cur- rency of the country, and silver was demonetized at a time when it stood on a par with gold, and this country took the first step in the gradual process of destroying the parity between gold and | silver, | “The greenbacks were destroyed in order to make room for bank currency, and the country eptered upon a finan- cial depression from 1873 to 1877, only paralleled by that of 1893 to 1897, a pe- riod during which mortgages were changed into-deeds and almost the en- tire property of the country was trans- | ferred from the debtor to the creditor class, thus. causing a concentration of wealth unprecedented in our history ‘and only equaled by the subsequent | concentration by the dep on of 18(3 to 1897, | INCREASE IN MGNEY. | “The depression of 1873 to 1877 was broken only by the passage of the t Bland act, which gave the country a moderate increase in basic money. Again in 1893 a money famine seized the country,” caused largely by the withdrawal of gold to meet the de- mands of Austria and Russia, then go- ing upon a gold basis. The Republican party sought to increase this famine by the repeal of the Sherman act, and with the aid of President Cleveland accom- plished it. “The Republican party in its plat- form alludes to the Cleveland era of de- pression and congratulates itself upon the work accomplished by that party upon being restored to power. All this is asserted regardless of the fact that the period of depression lasting from 1893 to 1887 under Democratic adminis- tration had its parallel in the depres- sion of 1873 to 1877 under Republican | administration, and that the depression of 1893 to 1897 had its source in the pre- ceding Republican administration, which was preparing to issue bonds for the relief of the Government only a few weeks before the Democratic adminis- tration came into power. “I have no excuse to offer for the mistakes of the Cleveland administra- tion of that period, which sought first, instead of inaugurating Democratic policies, to trade with the Republican | party for the establishment of a Re- publican policy. And I do not pur- pose entering upon the defense of Cleveland or of his administration, but I insist that the Republican policy in- augurated by the aid of this Demo- cratic President and the subsequent ! passage of the Dingley act brought no favorable results, and that it was not until <1898, after a wheat famine throughout the world had brought to |.the. American farmers better prices jand to our country a larger volume of money, * and after the increased |'productien -of gold had commenced to i ease the money famine theretofore ex- isting, that the industries of this coun- i try, agricultural as well as manufac- turing, obtained relief. These new con- ditions were created not by Repub- lican policies but by nature, by discov- ery and the’invention and industry of man. | SILVER NOT DEAD. | “In the campaign of ¥896-the Demo- | cratic contention was for a larger vol- ume of money in order to meet the in- | creased demands of population and business, and the coinage of silver was ! asked as a means to tHis end-and when | the production of gold: was at a low iebb. The condition was changed, but | not by the action of the Republican party, and as a result of the discovery, |invention and industry of man, two billion dollars in gold have during the last eight yvears been added to the world’s supply, of which this country secured $700,000,000. This increased supply came from no Republican leg- islation of- policy. “It has tended to restore values, thus re-establishing the equilibrium be- tween debtor and creditor, by ena- bling the debtor, through the sale of hi¢ products, at reasonable prices, to pay off his debts. The Democratic con- tention has been vindicated, and the Republican contention that the effect- iveness of the money value depended rot upon quantity but upon quality, and that a constantly increasing dollar was more serviceable than a stable dol- lar, has been contradicted by events. The extraordinary production of gold has eliminated the sllver question for the time being from the domain of politics. It rests in abeyance, only famine take place. “The wealth of the country prac- tically escapes all Federal burdens un- der a system of taxation which im- | poses the national taxes upon the con- sumers through our internal revenue {laws, and through indirect taxes wrung from the people in the in- creased prices of products imposed by monopolies built up under the shadow of high tarif{ walls. This injustice was partially remedied by the passage of the war revenue act by Democratic insistence upon the taxation of sugar and eil refineries, etc. REPEAL OF WAR ACT. “One of the main purposes of the Repubjican party in the repeal of the war revenue act was to relieve wealth of these taxes. The Democratic party contended in the minority re- ,lport of the House Ways and Means Committee that while all the war rey- enue taxes imposed upon commerce, upon the exchanges and upon the fa- cilities for business in the shape of the various stamp taxes should be re- pealed, the taxes imposed by that act upon aggregated wealth, such as upon sugar and oll refineries, should be re- tained. “The Democrats contended that the tax imposed by the war revenue act of one-eighth of one per cent on the gross receints of sugar and oil refin- eries in excess of $250,000, under which one million dollars annually was paid toward the expenses of the government by the . greatest trusts 1known to modern times—the sugar | |and the oil trusts, corporations which | | have notoriously aped proper taxa- | | tion, whether national, State or muni- | {eipal, should stand, and that it should | ! be extended to all industrial corpora- |ticns having large annual gross re- (ceipts, and that in connection with'! such tax such corporations shouid be compelled to make statements te the government as to their re- ceipts, operating expenses, taxes, wages | paid, prices charged for their products abroad as compared with domestic | prices, and other information neces- | |sary to secure full publicity of their| ‘affairs. | | “This contention, fully set out in the | report of the Democratic minority of | the Ways and Means Committee, was | | national i | denied by the Republican major i | | was defeated by a rule pas e Republicans in the Honse venting | the consideration of any amendments | | to the repealing act those sug- ! gested by the Republican majority of | | the Ways and Means Committee, and | thus an opportunity was denied to zhe\ minority, even by an amendment, to | present their contention to the vote of | the American Congress. | “A reasonable and graduated tax, similar to that imposed upon the sugar | and oil trusts by the war revenue act, should be imposed upor the gross re- ceipts of all great industrial combina- w18, and in connection with .it pub- licity shouid be required, with a view to | securing such information as may be a guice to further legislation of a regu- | lative and corrective character. RATES AND PUBLICITY. “The Republican platform asserts |that new laws insuring responsible publicity as to the operations of great | corporations, and providing additional IN THE GOLDEN STATE. | such industrial combinations and all other information necessary to an un- ’ derstanding of their affairs. “The Republican party boasts that ' after it was restored to power it re- | fused to palter longer with the mis- eries of Cuba. As a matter of fact, it delayed decisive action until com- pelled by the vigorous demand of the Democratic minority. But while the | Republican party was reluctant to | enter upon a war to secure peace, free- dom, order and prosperity to the Cuban people, it was eager upon its conelusion to enter upon a war of con- quest, spoliation and self-aggrandize- ment against the Filipino people, suf- fering equally with the Cuban people | from the oppression of Spain and equally entitled to freedom and self- government. While less than $200,- 000,000 was expended in the war foy Cuban freedom, a greater amount was wasted in the war for Philippine con- | quest and subjugation. 4 WAR OF CONQUEST. 1 Kepublican | “The party entered | fupon a war for freedom with reluc- tance 'and upon a war of conquest with | avidity, seeing in the latter an oppor- tunity for the exploitation by our trusts and combines of peoples other | than our own. “We protest against this policy not only because it involves the rights and liberty of the Filinino people, but also ntradiction of our entire theory of self-government, organized upon the basic doctrine that just governments derive their powers from the consent of the governed and that taxation and representation are inseparable and because the denial of this doctrine with reference to other peoples will prove in the end a de- moralizing principle in our own, af- fording a justification for the sub- version of our own liberties and the creation and use of arbitrary and des- | potic - power in the government of | man. | “We stand for domestic development | as against foreign exploitation; we con- tend that the $600,000,000 spent in the Philippines could have been spent to very much greater advantage in the de- velopment of the West; that this coun- try, populated to-day by only 80,000,000 of people and capable of supporting 400,000,000 0f people in comfort and pros- perity, should absorb our entire ener- gies; that the policy of external expan- ADVERTISEMENTS.
