It is undeniably true that the States of the Pacific Coast have been for twenty years under the influence of a powerful free silver sentiment. All the great silver mines of the western world are situated here, and by the restoration of silver to the privileges of coinage accorded it previous to 1873, undoubtedly a great impetus to business and trade would result in these Pacific Coast States and Territories. How long that prosperity, in this limited area of the country's domain, would continue, it is not our purpose this morning to say; but it would continue no longer than the first appreciable effects could be felt by the people of an unlimited issue of fiat money. Prices would be marked up by the merchant and shop keeper to meet the flood of fiat money; but that wages would also simultaneously rise is quite a different matter. In the end, what with the imports of thousands upon thousands of ounces of foreign silver bullion, not to speak of the great increase in the output of the white metal in our own country, final collapse would ensue, upon the withdrawal of gold from circulation; and the country would be upon the abyss of a panic, caused by a lack of confidence as to the future, with such appalling contingent financial effects, as we have not experienced since the beginning of the Government. But at the beginning of free silver coinage no doubt good times would ensue at Cripple Creek and on the Comstock. Thousands of miners would be put to work and their weekly wages would be put into immediate circulation. Those places would be the immediate center of a financial and industrial activity that would rival the wildest dreams of the 49'er. How long it would require those people to awaken from their dream of inflated wealth, and to settle down upon the foundation of absolute intrinsic value, we leave to the speculation of others more competent than us to say. Among the first of the immediate effects of free silver coinage would undoubtedly be a very largely increased output of silver. What effect upon the value of the white metal would this enormous overproduction have? Basing our calculation upon the effects of the Bland-Allison Act of 1878, and of the Sherman's law is that where there are two kinds of money of different intrinsic value the poorer will drive the better out circulation. We were speaking of the lace to a Populist friend the other day, when he turned and said: "What right had old Gresham to make such a law as that?" The Gold Standard was ever a party in such a mess as is the Popocritic? No sooner do they succeed in suppressing Tillman, and go to work to try and explain away his revelations of their purposes, than up bobs Altgeld and drives them to despair with his speeches. He has just been ex-patiating in New York on the beauties of riots, of what "we" are going to do to the Supreme Court, and there were red flags there with Bryan's picture on them. Altogether they had better drag Altgeld off into solitude if they want any votes left. Then there is the Hon. Tomtom Watson. Just now, Popocrat energy is concentrated on one last grand effort to suppress him. He can always be counted on to talk away at a critical moment and repel thousands of votes. He pronounces fusion a failure and warns Bryan of defeat. The leaders are quarreling, the rank and file demoralized. Their campaign has become laughable. Not least among the factors now at work to checkmate the silver agitation is the advance in wheat. A movement of this kind, based entirely on natural causes, is a political influence of the first importance. Mr. Bryan and his associates have for months been declaring to the farmers that under the gold standard the price of grain not only could not advance but was bound to fall continuously. That in some mysterious way the prices of wheat and silver linked together. What are these gentlemen to say now that wheat goes up and silver goes down? Is all this part of some "horrible conspiracy" on the part of the gold bugs, of the money changers and the rest of their "bogies," to put tens of millions of gold into the pockets of American farmers? All their arguments seem to be vanishing rapidly. And dreadful news comes to them from Kansas—even faithful Kansas. The State Board of Agriculture reports that the crop this year will be twelve per cent larger than that of 1895, and that the price, the gold price, is going up. A wild howl of dismay goes up from every Populist and free silver month. What is the matter with the soil of Kansas? They say, Has it it, too with the saud and the rain clouds, gone into the accursed conspiracy of the gold bugs and the money changers? The stern logic of natural laws is proving that the gold standard men are right. Gresham's law is that where there are two kinds of money of different intrinsic value the poorer will drive the better out circulation. We were speaking of the lace to a Populist friend the other day, when he turned and said: "What right had old Gresham to make such a law as that?" immediate center of a financial and industrial activity that would rival the wildest dreams of the 49'er. How long it would require these people to awaken from their dream of inflated wealth, and to settle down upon the foundation of absolute intrinsic value, we leave to the speculation of others more competent than us to say. Among the first of the immediate effects of free silver coinage would undoubtedly be a very largely increased output of silver. What effect upon the value of the white metal would this enormous overproduction have? Basing our calculation upon the effects of the Bland-Allison Act of 1878, and of the Sherman Act of 1880, during both of which epochs silver continued steadily to decline, we must come inevitably to the conclusion that it would still depreciate—to what extent it is mere speculation to say. If silver depreciated to 20 cents per ounce, and were still coined upon a parity with gold at 16 to 1, the dream of the Populists, who believe in 100 cent fiat money, would be near realization, and we should be but a step from that wildest theory of financial legislation. The Pacific States and Territories have been for years under the influence of this powerful free silver sentiment. Party platforms have embraced the faith freely, and while the Republican and Democratic platforms of the State have contained free silver coinage planks, the national platforms of both these parties have until the present year, wherein the Democratic platform favors free silver, been resolutely opposed to free coinage. During the past sixty days such a revulsion of popular sentiment has ensured, that party lines have been broken up as never before. The claim that in Los Angeles Republican free silver men to the number of 2200 have enrolled their names upon the lists of a free coinage club, proves upon investigation to be merest fable. Opposed to this is the abandonment of their party by the Gold Money Democrats, whose numbers throughout the State swell into the thousands. The people are coming to understand this free-silver question clearly, and California is safe for McKinley. A fearless newspaper is the palladium of the people's liberties. It is the conservator of the peace and the morals of the community. Thomas Jefferson said that as between a government without newspapers, and newspapers without government, he preferred the latter. We offer these thoughts this morning as a premise to what we have to say in reference to our connection with the Pfeninger case. In another column will be found a telegram to Attorney Melrose of this city from Julia H. Goodhart, Principal of the Indianapolis foundling's home, whence the little girl, Nellie Blank, was recently sent to Dr. John Pfeninger, saying that she had read the article in our last issue, and retaining him to act as counsel for her and to protect her and return her to her Indiana-polis home. This will be done. If THE GAZETTE shall be, even in the remotest degree, instrumental in returning this little girl to her home, whence she was enticed away by a beast who sought to accomplish her rain, we shall be abundantly repaid for the work we have done in this atrocious case. We dislike very much to print harsh things about any man, but a Several correspondents have inquired the meaning of Constitutional Amendment No. 2. As set forth in the Governor's proclamation, this amendment proposes to add a clause to Section 5, Article II, of the Constitution, with increased one-half time. There is this important difference between people and precious metals—while some people are being born into the world, others are dying out of it; but all the metal taken out of the ground is husbanded with the greatest care, and so all that is mined one year is added to the world's stock for previous years, very slight deductions having to be made on account of wear and tear. It takes 1000 years to wear silver money entirely out, and 5000 years to wear out gold money entirely. Look at the proposition another way. In 1850, according to Mulhall, the world's stock of gold, coined and uncoined, amounted to $2,500,000,000. Taking his figures for 1890 and adding the gold mined since then, the world's stock of gold, coined and uncoined, approximates $7,000,000,000; or, while the world's population was increasing one-half, the world's stock of gold, coined and uncoined, increased two and four-fifths times. It is true that the two estimates above made do not exactly agree, but the world's books are not kept with entire exactness, and statisticians differ somewhat, but no statistician of repute will give figures varying materially from those given above. Try one more test: human labor. Taking eleven classes of workingmen and the wages they received in 1840 and 1890, it is found that the average rate of wages in those callings advanced from $1.80 in gold at the former date to $2.37 at the latter; or that a laborer could earn nearly twice as much gold in 1890 as in the same number of hours or days, another workingman could have earned fifty years before. Yet again it is admitted by the best champions of silver at home and abroad that the annual average production of gold equals 3% per cent of the stock of gold on hand in the world, while the world's population increases at nothing like the same ratio. Therefore, if there is anything at all in the per capita theory of money, which the popocratic papers and speakers never tire of asserting that there is, then the per capita aggregation is stopped by its own argument from declaring that gold has appreciated in value. In fact, the per capita argument proves that gold has fallen in value because its production has increased faster than population. Southern Pacific Company. Effective Wednesday, Oct. 21st, 1896. Regular train service will be established between Anaheim and Los Alamitos station, follows daily: Leave Anaheim—10:05 a.m., 6:05 p.m. Arrive at Anaheim—8:05 a.m., 4:25 p.m. Ticket rate from Anaheim is 30 cents to Alamitos.

What is the matter with the soil of Kansas? Say it! Has it too, with the soil and the rain clouds, gone into the accurate conspiracy of the gold burges and the money changers? The stern logic of natural laws is proving that the gold standard men are right. Gresham's law is that where there are two kinds of money of different intrinsic value the poorer will drive the better out of circulation. We were speaking of the Law to a Populist friend the other day, when I turned and said: "What right had old Gresham to make such a law as that?" The we had to explain that it was not Secretary Gresham, but a writer on political economy many years ago, who first observed an formulated this natural law, and that it was called Gresham's law in much the same way that the law of gravitation might be called Newton's law, since he was the first to sit it. Experience demonstrates fully the truth of this law, and every man can see for himself that it is true, for if he had in his pocket two dollars of different values, and he had to pay out one of them, he would naturally pay out the less valuable and hold on to more valuable. He would have begun board gold. Everybody would be doing same thing, and the gold dollars would cease to circulate. Our present gold and silver dollars are of different intrinsic value, but the faith of our government has been plighted to maintain them at a parity. It can course only do this by standing ready for exchange one for the other when demand arises. This is hast stood ready to do, and so low as everyone felt sure of its willingness and ability to do so, very few such exchanges were asked. But there came a time when the power of the government to continue this course much longer began to be quenched by the people, and we saw men standing and drawing gold from the national treasury in exchange for the less valuable money. The government had to stop monthly purchase and coinage of four one-half millions of ounces of silver, and continually increasing its obligations thru much. Great and powerful as is this government there are some things it cannot do—there a limit to its power. It has but two sources of income—taxes taken from the people either customs duties or internal revenue taxes, or what it can borrow. When there distrust occurred men ceased to pay taxes to the government wholly or partially in gold, but paid them entirely in silver paper. Gresham's law had begun to work. The government's source of gold income went out off; it had to borrow gold by selling bonds or cease to maintain gold payment and sink at once a silver basis. With free coinage of silver the tasks maintaining silver at par with gold were so hopeless that the government would not attempt it. Its receipts would all be silver; it would have nothing but silver pay out. Gold would be hoarded; and would greatly be sent to foreign countries to pay what we buy from them, while under a foothold in coins; legal tender law; they would pay what they buy from us in silver; and silver at twice its real value. In that way they would exchange their silver for gold; and profit by the transaction. Do let us beajoled into any such folly. The first result then of free coinage would be the disappearance of gold from circulation. A contraction of our money supply some six hundred millions. Simultaneously with this would occur sinking of the silver dollar to its buildup value. It would still be called a dollar; its working power in transacting business would be the same, about as 53 cents is now what we buy from them; while under a foothold in coins country in all the world where silver coin circulates at more than its buildup value. He cannot do it. of the Indianapolis foundling's home, whence the little girl, Nellie Blank, was recently sent to Dr. John Pfeninger, saying that she had read the article in our last issue, and retaining him to act as counsel for her and to protect her and return her to her Indiana-polis home. This will be done. If THE GAZETTE shall be, even in the remotest degree, instrumental in returning this little girl to her home, whence she was enticed away by a beast who sought to accomplish her ruin, we shall be abundantly repaid for the work we have done in this atrocious case. We dislike very much to print harsh things about any man, but a newspaper had been cowardly indeed to have refrained from publishing the entire story of the case, as appeared in our columns last week. In cases such as this the people look to the newspapers to do things with which they, for various reasons, dislike to associate themselves. We feel we have done our whole duty in this matter, unpleasant as it has been; but in the thought that we have helped return this little waif to distant friends, who have stretched out their hands across mountain and valley to protect her, we feel ourselves amply repaid for our expose of this naiest piece of bestiality that has ever come under our observation. PEOPLE say they wish the election was over. The only reason why we wish the campaign over is to find out just how big McKinley's majority is going to be. The American farmer is in evidence just now in this campaign. There is only one authority which covers the whole field—viz., the latest census, that of 1890. From it we learn: 1. Total valuation of all farms, $13,279,-252,649. 2. Value of farms free of encumbrance, $10,224,329,484. 3. Value of farms encumbered, $3,054,-923,165. Thus between 79 and 80 per cent in value are entirely free of debt. The total mortgage debt upon the ennumered farms, valued at $3,054.923,165, is $1,085,995,960, equal to one-third their value. Rate of interest paid was 7.07 per cent, but this has fallen materially since 1890. Thus the farms of the United States exceeding 13,000 millions of dollars in value are mortgaged only to the extent of 1,000 Southern Pacific Company. Effective Wednesday, Oct. 21st, 1896. Regular train service will be established between Anaheim and Los Alamitos station, follows: daily: Leave Anaheim—10:05 a.m., 6:05 p.m. m. Arrive at Anaheim—8:05 a.m., 4:25 p.m. m.

Several correspondents have inquired the meaning of Constitutional Amendment No. 2. As set forth in the Governor's proclamation, this amendment proposes to add a clause to Section 5, Article II, of the Constitution as follows: "Section 5. All elections by the people shall be by ballot or by such other methods as may be prescribed by law; provided that secrecy in voting be preserved." According to the experiments carried on in the East, ballot machines furnish a safe and speedy method of determining the result of an election. The voting machine secures secret voting, preserves a record of the polling and enables the result of the election in a precinct to be known in a few minutes after the poll close. As the long count gives the greatest if not the only opportunity for fraud now remaining to the politicians, a ballot machine is certainly desirable. The voters should give the Legislature the power to authorize such a machine when the right one is found. Gavin Dhu High, of the Oakland Morning Times and Evening Item, received a genuine and woeful surprise on Monday, when Police Judge Wood, of Oakland, sentenced him to sixty days in the County Jail for libelling W. J. Dingee, in connection with the sight between rival water companies. High had served six days on a former charge and had pleaded guilty on the second charge, expecting a light sentence. He now intends to continue the legal fight his attorney stating that he would swear out a writ of habeas corpus. The Sunset Limited.

It would still be called a dollar; its working power in transacting business would be the same, about; as 53 cents is not it would take about twice the number dollars to do the same work. If any more questions this, let him point to one of coinage country in all the world where silver coin circulates at more than its bullion value. He cannot do it. This would mean, and must mean a less period of doubt, of distrust, and a financial convolution such as this country has yet known. Speculators and money changers would thrive on an unstable and fluctuating medium of exchange, and the poor and laborer would suffer. It is self-evident that the merchant does not consult anyone about marking up price of goods on his shelves, but the man who labors has another man to consult before the price of his labor can be advanced. The merchant can wait, but the labor cannot. An unused day is gone forever. Labor advances in price slower than anything else, and the reason for the fact apparent. All the teachings of experience, all lessons of history, all the deductions from calm and thoughtful reasoning, coincide that it is best for every man and particular for every poor man to have the very best unchanging money. Stand fast for the gold standard, or be prepared to this nation alongside of Mexico and China. Prof. John L. Morris, director of the chine shops of Sibley College, at Corpus Christi University, a life-long Democrat, was centently travelling in the Far West, where man in a seat beside him exclaimed, "I a Democrat and am for free coinage. want more silver dollars, and we are born to have them." Thereupon Prof. Moore grasped the man by the hand heartily said, "My dear friend, I am with you want more dollars; too; you are just man I have been looking for; for I want know how you or I are going to get them I see how the owners of the mines are going to get them coined by the government of expense; and how the governments Europe that have old silver to sell are going to get them on the same terms; and how they are going to make a big profit on us; but where do we come in? How are going to get them? The mine owners foreign governments won't give those dollars to us after the government has coined them you and I are too proud to beg them," The Gold Standard Democracy.

Mr. Bryan and his as-save for months been deolaring to that under the gold standard the strain not only could not advance, but to fall continuously. Some mysterious way the prices of silver linked together. What gentlemen to say now that wheat and silver goes down? Is all this, some "horrible conspiracy" on the gold bugs, of the money changers, out of their "bogies," to put tens of gold into the pockets of American All their arguments seem to be rapidly. Badful news comes to them from seven faithful Kansas. The State agriculture reports that the corn ear will be twelve per cent larger of 1805, and that the price, the is going up. Bowl of dismay goes up from every and free silver mouth. The matter with the soil of Kansas say. Has it, too, with the sun in clouds, gone into the accursed gold bugs and the money logic of natural laws is proving gold standard men are right. It's law is that where there are lots of money of different intrinsic poorer will drive the better out of it. We were speaking of the law last friend the other day, when he said: "What right had old Grosse take such a law as that!" Then too honest to steal them; how are we going to get them? What I want to know is, what your plan is to get them from these mine owners without working for them just as hard as we do now. You and I have both worked a great many years, and pretty hard too, I judge; and now how are we to get our share of all this silver, after the government has coined it free for the big silver mine owners?" At this Prof. Morris's new friend seemed much embarrassed, and after trying to discuss the subject for a little time, gave it up, and confessed that he couldn't see where anybody but the mining monopolists and the foreign governments with old silver to sell came in for any profit. Prof. Morris expressed his regret to his friend at not receiving any enlightment, and said that he didn't feel able to pay taxes to enrich silver-mine monopolists, and that, though a life-long Democrat, he saw no way but to vote this fall for McKinley. "What is the objection that the silver advocates urge against our present money? Its purchasing power is too great. Suppose you take the proposition home to your wife, and say to her, 'I have just learned something about our money—about that five dollars I gave you the other day.' She will inquire, 'Why, what is the matter with that five dollars?' Answer her that you are well informed by a very knowing friend that the purchasing power of that five dollars is too great, and if she does not quite understand you, tell her that if she goes to the store she will be able to buy too much for that money. What will she answer? She will probably say, John, have you been out with the boys again?" Now, in all seriousness, is it not one of the most amazing conceptions that ever entered the human brain, that the money in his pocket is too good for him—that it buys too much?
