BUfIY IT OUT OF SIGHT.The Advice Given the Voters of the United States

by Archbishop Ireland Regarding theFree Silver Agitation.

WE CANNOT GO ALONE AT \6 TO 1.

The Boast That We Can Force England to OurStandard, or Send Silver to $1.29 an

Ounce, Is Here Nonsense.

THE LABORER AND FARMER DELUDED.

Free Silver Would Bring Ruin, and One Would BePenniless, While the Other Could Not

Sell His Harvests.

DOCTRINE OF SECESSION UPPERMOST.

Men Are Igniting Torches Which May Light Upthe Country With The Lurid Fires

of the Commune.

A few days ago the letter given be-low was addressed to Archbishop Ire-land, asking for counsel in the cam-paign now being waged. The answeris that of a patriot in a national crisis.The archbishop warmly opposes theticket placed In nomination at Chicagoand vigorously attacks the platformupon which it stands. Of paramountimportance he makes the plank attack-ing the supreme court of the UnitedStates and the power of the presidentto send troops in defense of nationalproperty in the various states of theunion. He sees In the shibboleths ofthe platform dangerous ear-marks ofsocialism and warns adherents of theBryan cause that "they are lightingtorches which, borne in the hands ofreckless men, may lightup in the coun-try the lurid fires of a commune." ThePopulist war cry that this country cancoin silver at 16 to 1, force other na-tions to do likewise and send the priceof silver up to $1-29 an ounce he char-acterizes as "mere nonsense." Speak-ing of the hard times and the partwhich the silver agitation has in pro-ducing them, he says: "Ifthe Ameri-can people put down by an overwhelm-ing majority this agitation—bury itout of sight—one chief cause of hardtimes will be out of the way." Thecorrespondence in fullis as follows:

LETTEiR TO THE ARCHBISHOP.St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 29, 1896.— Archbishop

John Ireland— Most Reverend Sir: Your voicehas often been raised to inculcate the duUesof patriotism. Your example has served toillustrate this highest of civil virtues in theearnest interest you have taken in Importantpublic affairs. A crisis is now impending Inthe issues involved In the pending presiden-tial election, in which your fellow citizens,without distinction of religious faith or politi-cal party, look confidently to you for counselinspired by a sense of patriotic duty aboveall transitory party claims or Interests.

An eminent Catholic dignitary, ArchbishopWalsh. In a pamphlet of world-wide circula-tion, in advocacy of international bimetallism,has shown that the profoundest social and

tion ef the constitution of the United Statesand a crime against free Institutions, and weespecially object to government by Injunctionas a new and highly dangerous form of op*pression by which federal judges, in con-S°J *fIaW\of tbe United States andrights of citizens, become at once legislatorsjudges and executioners."

'Referring to the decision of the supreme

court in the income tax cases, the platform

"We declare that it is the duty of congressto use all the constitutional power which re-mains after that decision, or which may comefrom its reversal by the court as it may here-after be constituted, so that the burdens* oftaxation may be equally and impartially laidto the end that wealth may bear Its due pro-portion of the expense of the government"—this language clearly Implying a purpose toreconstitute the court by congressional legis-lation so as to make it the subservient instru-ment of the party in power.

These declarations seem to the undersignedopposed to those fundamental principle's ofrighteous, safe and orderly government onwhich heretofore all political parties havebeen at one since the birth of tbe republic.For the first time in American history, theseIssues, which reach down to the foundationsof civil society and publicmorality, divide thecountry. They involve not only the most mo-mentous economic problems, but the gravestquestions of morals and public duty. Upontheir right settlement depends, as we think,the weal or woe of the American people, per-haps for generations to come. Upon thesegrounds and on these issues, so big withserious consequences, the undersigned re-spectfully invite you to make known yourviews (In the manner, and at the time thatyou may judge proper).Richard Gordon, William Dawson,Reuben Warner, R.

THE ARCHBISHOP'S REPLY.Messrs. Gordon, Dawson, Warner, etc.—

Gentlemen: Iam not unwilling,In the crisisthrough which the country is now passing, tospeak for the integrity of the nation, forsocial order, for the prosperity of the people,for the honor of America, and the perman-ency of free institutions. Iam a citizen ofthe country, concerned in all the interests ofthe nation, subject to all the responsibilitiesof citizenship. To be silent, when words ofmine may be of some profit to the people,would be cowardice, would be crime.Iam not unmindful of the objection made

against the churchman speaking at any time

ARCHBISHOP IRELAND.

economic questions which concern the wel-fare of mankind may well engage the atten-tion of those who are charged with the careof souls. Rejecting the broad basis of inter-national agreement on which the Irish prelatehas made his plea for bimetallism, a portionof bar countrymen have perverted his argu-ments to the support of a policy which looksto the debasement of our currency, the re-pudiation of our obligations and the monetaryisolation of our country from the commercialworld. Using the name of a great politicalparty, of whose organization they have ob-tained control, they have put forth a platformwhich embodies the following declarations:

"We demand the free and unlimited coinageof both silver and gold at the present legalratio of 16 to 1, without waiting for the aidor consent of any other nation. We demandthat the standard silver dollar shall be afulKlegal tender, equally with gold, for alldebts, public and private, and we favor suchlegislation as will prevent for -the future thedemonetization of any kind of legal tendermoney by private contract.

"We are opposed to the policy and practiceof surrendering to the holders of the obliga-tions of the United States the option reservedby law to the government of redeeming suchobligations in either silver coin or gold coin.

"We denounce arbitrary interference byfederal authorities in local affairs as a viola-

on matters which have entered the arena ofpolitics, lest his influence as a teacher of re-ligion seem to be used to promote the inter-ests of a political party. Imight reply thatthere are occasions when a political platformmeans disaster to the country, when pollt'csare closely connected with morals or re-ligion, and that on those occasions the church-man must be the patriot, without allowing amoment's thought to considerations of ex-pediency, and must take in hand the moralor rehglous issue, even ifit be vested in thegarment of politics. But in the present in-stance Iseek no excuse of this kind. Ispeakentirely as the citizen, without warrant frommy ecclesiastical position.

Deep as my own convictions are, Ihold inall due respect my fellow citizens who holdconvictions at variance with my own Iim-peach neither their good faith, nor their hon-or.Iam dealing not with men, b^with prin-ciples and movements. This ju#ice which Irender to those whose ideas I.7am ready tocombat, Iam sure they willraider to me.

ISTAND BY THE PLATFORMand the presidential candidate of the Repub-lican convention at St Louis. Iam opposedto the platform* and the presidential candidateof the Democratic convention at Chicago.

The days of the civil war excepted, at notime did so great peril threaten the country

as that which is involved in the politicalcampaign of today.

The question of free and unlimited coinageof silver Is put In the foreground. Thisquestion had its importance; but it Is of aminor Importance, in present of other ques-tions which are brought into issue.

The movement which had its expression Inthe Chicago convention and which now seeksby means of popular suffrage to enthroneitself in the capital of this nation, is in Itslogical effect rebellion against the UnitedStates; it is secession; the secession of 1861,which our soldiers beleived they had con-signed to eternal death at Appomatox, butwhich demands again recognition from theAmerican people. The declaration of the Chi-cago platform has, and can have, no othermeaning: "We denounce arbitrary Interfer-ence by federal authorities in local affairs asa violuation of the constitution of the UnitedStates and a crime against free institutions."The words point to the act of Grover Cleve-land, sending United States troops to pro-tect national property and enforce nationallaws during the Chicago riots in 1594. Intbose words there is the old secession doctrinethat states are Independent of the nationalgovernment at Washington; there is the an-nulment of the Union; there Is notice servedupon the flag of America, that outside theDistrict of Columbia It Is without power ofself-assertion or self-defense. The pres-ident of the United States Is told thatto enforce national laws and pro-tect property he cannot -march his troopsinto any state without the authority of thegovernor of that state. One of the chiefspeakers at the convention of Chicago under-stood the significance of the convention, andvoiced its spirit. "Icame from a state whichwas the home of secession." said SenatorTillman, of South Carolina. 'Isay," he con-tinued, "It Is a sectional issue, and it willprevail." And fitting was it that the speakervoicing the spirit of the Chicago conven-tion should be the representative of SouthCarolina. Thrice, now, has South Carolinaspoken .for secession— when it passed in 1832the nullification ordinance, when in 1861 Itfired upon Fort Sumter, when in 1896, Itcries out: "It is a sectional issue, and itwill prevail."

The platform of the Chicago conventionthreatens the country with destruction of so-cial order, with

LAWLESSNESS AND ANARCHY.The personification of law and of social

order in America Is our courts—

and thepromise of safety to our free Institutions lathe prompt obedience of the people to thosecourts. And now the courts are to be shornof their power

—and shorn of it In favor of

mobs, bent on rioting and the destruction ofproperty. "We especially object," says theChicago platform, "to government by in-junction as a new and highly dangerous formof oppression." Here reference is made tothe action of the courts during the Chicagoriots—without which action there Is no cal-culating how much ruin would have come tothe city. The palladium of American liber-ties is the supreme court at Washington

—the counterpart of which In majesty and inpower to enforce absolute justice does notexist among the nations of Christendom.Put, as far as it is possible to human in-genuity, outside of partisan politics, inde-pendent of all political influences throughtheir life tenure of office, the judges of thiscourt rule congress and president, states andnation, and expound the law in all its in-flexibility,no matter who or what must yieldto it. And now a convention speaksof the supreme court "«a

-it may

be hereafter constituted," intimatingunmistakably the intention, if the party rep-resented in that convention come to power,the intention to constitute the courts, by thepopular election of the judges, by the short-ening of their term of office, or otherwise,as to ti.ike it insensible to th« stern voiceof the law, and responsive to the passingwhims of political parties.

Worse to my mind than all this Is thespirit of socialism that permeates the wholemovement which has issued from the conven-tion of Chicago. It is the "International"of Europe, now talcing body in America. Ofthis one cannot but be convinced, when themovement is closely observed, the shibbolethsof its adherents listened to, the discoursesof its orators carefully examined. The warof class against class is upon us, the war ofthe proletariat against the property holder.No other meaning than this can be given tothe appeals to "the common people," "to thelaborer," "to the poor and down-trodden,"and to the denunciations against "pluto-crats" and "corporations," and "money-grab-bers," and "bankers." Many of the adher-ents of the movement do not perceive Its fullmeaning; but let them, beware. They arelighting torches which, borne in the handsof reckless men, may lightup in the countrythe lurid fires of a "commune." America,heretofore, has been free from socialistic ha-tred and warfare; and it has been a countryof opportunities for all men, and Ithas givento the laborer a livelihood higher and betterthan is afforded hinf In any other country ofthe world. Is this all to be changed? Issocial chaos, gloating over ruins, to be themethod of social elevation of the masses.There may be room In some things for peace-ful amelioration through a well-informedpublic opinion and orderly legislation; butclass hatred and angry passion never lead toaught but general misery and suffering. Thepeople of America must today look warilyaround, guard against catchwords and mis-leading war cries, avoid giving any counte-nance to socialistic or anarchistic tendencies,and know that the first condition of pros-perity to any and all classes of the peopleis a peaceful commonwealth and assured so-cial order.

The monetary question la, Indeed, a sec-ondary issue In the campaign. Ihave, how-ever, my convictions in this matter. Thefree and unlimited coinage of silver dollars,at the ratio of 16 to 1, by the United States,independently of the great commercial na-tions, into dollars which shall be made legaltender, will disturb the whole business ofthe country, and bring upon i| a financialdepression far beyond anything which weare now experiencing.Iam confronted with the pamphlet of

Archbishop Walsh, of Dublin, on bimetallism,as a reply to my objection to the silver reso-lution of the Chicago convention. Thepamphlet of Archbishop Walsh has no bear-ing whatever on the situation in America.The archbishop discusses bimetallism vs.monometallism

—and that only from one point

of view, the effect of monometallism uponfarmers' contracts under the land purchaseact in Ireland. He expresses no opinion asto the ratio in which silver is to be coined,and he manifestly presupposes that bimetal-lism would be brought about under an inter-national agreement. He explains that Indiawas unable to keep up a silver currency, in-dependently of European nations. "It wasimpossible for India to obtain the loans thatare absolutely necessary for the developmentof the country," and the reason was "thefluctuation in the relative value of the ru-pee." "It is the silver currency of China,"ho adds, "that stops the making of railwaysin that country." Walsh's pamphlet isthroughout a solid argument against theChicago platform. To what he'says we mightadd that France and all the countries of theLatin union together were ultimately com-pelled to give up bincetallism so long as othercountries of Europe would not co-operatewith them.

The question before the people of Americatoday Is the coinage of sliver by this country,Independently of the great commercial na-tions of the world, at the ratio of 16 to 1.This ratio Is the double of the present com-mercial value of silver. The consequences ofunlimited coinage In these circumstances areeasily perceived.

The one hope of the silver party is "thatunder free coinage we will raise the value ofsilver to $1.29 an ounce, measured in gold."On what authority Is this said? On that ofthe mere men who make the assertion. Theexperience of our own country contradicts theassertion. The purchasing of $50,000,000 worthof silver bullion per year under the Shermanact was not able to prevent the fall in thevalue of silver from over a dollar an ounceto Its present low value. The experience ofFrance contradicts the' assertion; France,with all the countries ot ihe Lation unionhad to give up the coinage of silver, lest,overloaded with the silver of the world, Itshould lose all Its gold. Common sense isagainst the assertion. SiWer is now producedin such quantities at sucTi small expense ofproduction that its value' cannot be kept upto its former standard. And" is the wholebusiness of America to be Imperiled by aleap Into an experiment, which those verymen who advocate it confess Ito be only anexperiment, and which experience and com-mon sense condemn?

The boast that the United States is ableall alone to whip England and the rest of theworld Into the eoli.a^e of silver at 16 to 1,or to force the value of silver; up to $1.29 anounce. Is mere nonsense. We are a great peo-ple, indeed; but we are not yet grown to thecommercial strength that oar country meansthe commercial world. Our national pridemay give us extraordinary dreams of ourimportance; but it will not do to build thebusiness of the country upon those dreams.Would all the commercial cations togethercoining silver at 16 to 1 bring up the valueof silver bullion to $1.29 per .ounce? Perhaps.Strong commercial reasons suggest the con-trary. Would America alone tiring silver lo$1.29? Assuredly not; although, of course,the new demand for silver from the mintswould give some increase to its value, whichincrease, however, might again be offset byan increase of production.

Some imagine that the ratio of silver togold was always 16 to 1 or thereabout Theratio was constantly changing throughouthistoric times. At one time silver was morevaluable than gold. At the time of the dis-covery of America, silver was ten times lessvaluable than gold; two hundred years beforeIt had been eight times less valuable. Theratio is constantly changing, and the ques-tlon for, us today is not wh§U the ratio was

man's iron nerve has given way at last.His strength of willhas lowered by thesimple truth of adeath, not those he hadcaused, but the death of his partner,

who was no other than his brother, al-though he knew of the capture of hisbrother last night. Marshal Rubyguarded the prisoner in his own houselast night, and by being kind to theyoung man and by gradually feeling

his way In the conversation, the mar-shal turned by degrees the conversa-tion to the Sherburne affair until theopportune moment arrived to informhis prisoner that his partner was killed.The prisoner sat still, with his head be-tween his hands, for several minutes.Finally he looked up and said in lowtones: "Imight as well make a cleanbreast of it all. The fellow that waskilled was my brother. We robbed thebank at Sherburne, but Iam not guiltyof killingeither of the men. It wasagreed that we were not to shoot. Mybrother came to our house where Iwasstaying with my parents, and asked meto help him rob the bank. Ifinallyconsented, and went there severaldays before, remaining In the neighbor-

hood. We fixed up Wednesday as theday, and about 9 o'clock in the morningwe rode towards the town and re-mained on the outside streets sometime, and when the coast was clearwent to the bank. Then there weretwo men behind the counter of thebank. Ifirst ordered the banker tothrow up his hands. Just at that mo-ment

MY BROTHER FIRED,

and Isaid, 'Come, letus get out of this,'and jumped to the window. He said,'Attend to your business,' and so Iwent to the money drawer and tookout the money, about $700 inone bunch,

whichIput in a sack. We then cut ascreen to a back window and left townen our bikes. Just as we got on ourbikes Ishowed the other fellow the

We separated about two and a halfor three miles out of Sherburne. Mybrother, being the best rider, madesouth for the state line, and Itook asouthwesterly direction until Igotsouth of Jackson and then Istruck outsouth towards the Dcs Moines river,across the country towards Forest City,then to Lake Mills. Ihad a pretty hardtime getting through the state."

The prisoner uses the term 'the otherfellow,' while in other places he callshim his brother. Marshal Ruby saidtLat he used these expressions aboutas they appear above. He refuses tomake any further statements and re-fuses to give his correct name, as hedoes not want his folks to know any-thing about it.

Early In the day the prisoner hadmade statements repeatedly contradict-ing himself, first giving his name asMcMullen and claiming to reside atSioux City, 10., but upon request towire to his friends at that point forassistance, he came out point blankstating he had lied as to the place ofbis residence, and refused to give anyfurther information. About 2:30 p. m.Mr. Ballard, of Fairmont, Minn., ac-companied by two other men fromMinnesota, arrived for the purpose ofidentifying the captured man. Mr. Bal-lard had been in the bank not overthree minutes before the murder, andwas one of the first to get a glimpseof the men as they left on their wheels.No doubt but that McMullen had madea good inspection of Mr. Ballard, forwhen McMullen was confronted by Mr.Ballard this afternoon for the purposeor identification his fingers moved andhis face flushed for the first time sincehis capture, and he acted as if he wasgetting into an uncomfortable position.Excitement runs high in every mannerabout the town and the officers areguarding their prisoner with great pre-caution. Mr. Ballard and others arepositive that he is the right man. Theman McMullen, with many aliases, hasconsented to go to Minnesota withoutrequisition papers, in charge of Mar-shal A. F. Ruby, and the three menfrom Fairmont, who will take the 4:19train here in the morning over theMinneapolis & St. Louis railroad toAlbert Lea, then via Chicago, Milwau-kee & St. Paul railroad to Blue EarthCity, where he will be lodged In jail.

The officers think this the wisest courseowing to the fact that the countryaround Fairmont, as well as Sher-burne, is wild and excited over hijcapture and they feel satisfied he wouldcertainly meet with death at the handsof the enraged citizens.

Throughout Enfflund

LONDON, Oct. ll.—The archbishopof Canterbury was seized with apo-plexy after the service commenced atHawarden church this morning. Hewas carried to the Hawarden rector}where he died at 11:30 o'clock.

Rev. Archibald Farrar, dean of Can-terbury, received a telegram fromStephen Gladstone, rector of Haward-en church, stating that the archbishopof Canterbury passed away peaceful lyand suddenly at 11:15 o'clock. He hadattended the early communion. DeanFarrar, in preaching in the cathedralthis evening, referred to his forty-fiveyears' intimacy with the deceased pre-late.

The archbishop of Canterbury ar-rived at Hawarden Saturday eveningon his return from a visit in the northof Ireland. He appeared then to be inrobust health, and expressed to Mrs.Gladstone his great gratification overhis Irish tour. He arose early Sun-day, and attended the early commu-nion with his wife and other*. Theweather was bitterly cold, and Mr.Gladstone did not attend the church,but at 10 o'clock the archbishop andMrs. Benson, Henry Gladstone, Mrs.Gladstone, Mrs. Drew and DorothyDrew went to the morning services.The whole party occupied the Glad-stone pew near the chancel.

Directly the service began, and whilethe rector, Rev. Stephen Gladstone,was reading the absolution, Archbis-hop Benson, who was kneeling, wasseen to twitch in the arm for a fewminutes, and then he collapsed alto-gether.

Henry Gladstone, finding that th*archbishop had had a dangerous seiz-ure, called to the clerk and others, whocarried him into the library adjoiningthe rectory. Doctwrs were hastily sum-moned. The stricken prelate wasgasping painfully for breath. Applica-tions of ether and other means to in-duce artificial respiration were resort-ed to. Mr. Gladstone, the rector, whihad left the church when the arch-bishop was carried out, returned andannounced the illness to the congrega-tion, wno were waiting in painfulsuspense. He asked for their prayersduring the litany. All efforts to rallythe distinguished patient proved vain,and he died in a few minutes. HenryGladstone whispered the news to (!).-rector, who announced the archbis-hop's death, the news causing a pro-found sensation amongst the worship-pers in the church. The hymn "For-ever With the Dord" was sung, an<lthe dead march was played, all presentstanding and showing themselves tobe deeply afflicted.

Mrs. Gladstone conveyed the sadnews to her husband, who was greatlyshocked and distressed by it. After-wards remarking on the event, Mr.Gladstone said:
