Culberson, candidate for governor on the democratic ticket, gives considerable attention to the money question. He closes his remarks en the subject wltl the declaration: "I believe the parity ol the two a maintained, am am therefore In favor of the free End unlimited coinage of gold and silver without discrimination at the present ratio of 18 to 1, In criticising Mr. Culbcrson I do so at a democrat. When a candidate accepts a nomination on a platform of principles It is expected of him. that he wll! candidly uphold those principles to the best of his ability.

Mr. Culberson seems to have entered upon his canvass with the idea that the platform adopted at Dallas does not amount to much, and that Is necessary for put It In proper shape. While It may be unjust to charge Mr. Culberson with downright repudiation of that platform, there is found nowhere in his speech, as reported, a hearty indorsement of It. It seems to say: "If I cnultl have gotten the nomination on some other platform It would have suited me much better," If that platform Is not good enough for Mr.

Culberson he should so at Dallas, and not have accepted the nomination. is well understood that the main points of difference between the majority and minority reports at Dallas were on the sliver question, the minority demanding the Insertion of a declaration for free and unlimited coinage nt a ratio of 16 to that' is, 1G ounces of silver should be equal to 1 of gold, nnd that it should be the duty of congress tb establish and maintain the ratio, and should coin without charge all of either metal presented at the mints, and should stamp the same as the money of this government. After a conflict, waged with energy on both Bides, the majority platform had no provision as to ratio, was adopted, and yet Mr. Culberson Ingeniously attempts to show that the adoption of tho minority platform did not condemn the 1C lu i pluliuoiliuii, und lliut he, us leader or the party In the state, has a perfect right to advocate that proposition. It Is a great pity that Mr.

Culbcrson could not have emulated the modesty of the distinguished gentleman quoted by him as saying before the convention at Dallas: "It Is for this reason that I ask you tonight to support the report of the majority of the committee. It Is that dissensions may no longer dwell among us. It is that thtj strli'e may cease and that the enmities of the campaign of twu years ago may be forgotten In the reunited democratic party, ami that all may entertain their own individual views. I am not here to press my own peculiar views. I know that the great, intelligent, broad head and honest heart of this convention has views on this question different from mine, and no less honest.

I think for myself, you think for yourself. We are here for our country's good, and I tell you he Is the best democrat and the best patriot who Is willing to misko thu greatest personal aacrltices to uphold thu unlly ot his party and Its honor." In his explanation of the state platform on the silver question Mr. Culberson stops short In the middle of the first sentence at the word "mintage." Ho could explain very well, li seems, Hint much of the sentence which rends: "We hold to the use of both gold and silver the standard money of the country, and the equal coinage of both metals without discrimination against cither metal or charge for-mlnt- hut whnn Kot down to "but the dollar unit of coinage of both metals iniiwi be ot- actual imnnKtc and exchangeable value," he did not seem tvllllng to tackle THE GALVESTON DAILY NEWS. WEDNESDAY. OCiOJiKR a.

U. He did not to wkat changeable value." Mr. Culbt-rnon knows ihat auncen of silver not ariuolly anil Ititi-ltiiileaUy worth ail ounce of EoM to-Our, auu, knuwluK tlmt, to IK vwMlMly Inc the stave platform when he udvocatcy a ratio of to He also knows that the silver dollar would not circulate without the promlyn of the to maintain It on a iwrlty with (ol'l. Mr. Culbei-Hon he the parity of the metals may be maintained on a of 1C to 1.

It sccmn then that he thinks there la Home mHlntalnint; necessary somewhere. Whin does he mean by this? he mean that legislation In needed to maintain the circulation of a iiolu dollar on this IB he afraid some one will refuse to receive a dollar In exchange for a sliver one? If ho does not mean thu (which, of course, we. all know he does not niean, he must mean that thero Is some danger tlmt a nllvi-r dollar nilulit not circulate on this basis, and thinks that ICKIS- Itttlon will be necessary to foive the cheaper metal Into circulation at ratio greater than Its actual value. Would that not be a against the more valuable metal? And do not both state and national platforms declare emphatically against discrimination? Mr. Culberson undertakes to show that the lo-w or supply ami demand does not necessarily control the prices of the precious metals.

Whether fhla Is or not the relative coat of producing the two metals certainly does. Twenty years ago It took as much labor and capital to mine, smelt and roflne one ounce of gold as sixteen ounces of silver; therefore (told was then worth sixteen times as much as silver. To-day, with vast deposits of silver discovered and' cheapening of mining, smelt.lng and refining that metal, thirty ounces of silver can he produced as cheaply as one ounce of gold, hence gold Is worth thirty times as much as silver, the cost of producing gold not having declined us much as that of silver. Under these conditions would It not be manifestly unjust and a discrimination against gold to say that sixteen ounces of silver should still be worth as much as one odnce of sold? In stating that he believes the parity of the two metals may be maintained on basis of 1C to 1. Mr.

Culberson evidently Intends that our government should come to the aid of silver. Let us see who would be benefited by this. Would our own people generally be benefited or would the benefit be mainly for the silver mine owners of our own country and foreign nations who had silver to sell? It has never been denied by the advocates of free and unlimited coinage at a basis of 16 to 1 that such a course would advance the price of silver to about $1 per ounce. In fact, this has been urged as an argument In favor of such a measure. It has also never been denied that the advance of the price of sliver in this country would necessarily advancr tha price all over the world, for it would tic as Impossible to maintain the price of silver at $1 In this country when It was only worth COc elsewhere as It would be to raise the waters of the gulf of Mexico above those of the Atlantic ocean.

This 'being the case, would we not very nearly double the value of the sliver of the whole world, and as we would be the only maintaining that value, would the silver of t-he world not ns nn-tn- rally How to us as water seeks the lowest plane? Would Mexico continue selling silver In London at 58 cents If we were paying $1 for It? Would Mexico not bring silver -to us and sell it and take our gold to Europe, where she could buy goods cheaper than we could sell them? It has been argued that with the price of silver restored 'to Its former value no one would be anxious to sell. Can any one seriously Relieve a Mexico would 'Iodine to sell nt Jl that which she Is now anxious to sell at CO cents? It Is to be regretted that Mr. Culberson placed himself In an attitude, If not of opposition, at least of lukewarm support of the platform which has been declared far and wide to be the soundest leclaratlon of democratic principles that las been promulgated In Texus for many years. Every honest democrat, whnMier he personally in favor of free and unllm- colnngi. or not, must condemn such course on the part of the candidate 1 guvt-riior.

How much better It would have for Mr. Cutberson and the mrty haa ne in mis opening address man- 'ully placed himself on the side of the no- lle men who at Dallas so heroically struggled to redeem our grand party In this mate from the taint of third partylsm and and proclaimed to the world that Texas stood for sound money.
