Chicago, April lfl.—The eiti/.cas who
invited President Cleveland to eoine
here and address a meeting on tlio
monetary tpiastion have received tlio
following letter on the subject:
To Messrs. William T Haki-r.ta • W. Smith,
Joliu A. Hoc he, T. W. Hurvev, David Kelly
and Heorj S. Robblni
Executive Mansion. Wusfeln ion, April 18.—
Gentlemen: I am much irrutitle l i y the ex-
ceedingly kind and complim' itary invitation
you have tendered ino on of rnauy clti-
xens of Chicago to betheirguest at a gathering
In the interest of sound niom-. and wholesomo
ilnancial doctrine. My attie. iimeut to tiiiscause
Is so great, and I know so well the hospitality
and kindness of the poop e of Chicago that
my personal inclination i strongly in favor
of accepting your fluttering invitation: but
my judgment and estimate > >c tlte proprieties
of my official place obll me t.o forego tho
enjoyment of participating in the occasion you
contemplate. I hope. ho\vr\er, tlio event will
mark the beginning or an < artiest and aggres-
sive effort to dlsse.ulnat • lunon,: the people
safe and prudent llmuiciui ideas Nothing
more important can onea/i the attention of
patrioticottlsens, imoauM fOthing is so \itali
to the welfare of our fellow-countrymen and to
the strength, prosperity a id honor of our na-
tion.
The situation confronting us demands that
those who appreciate tin importance of this-
subject and those who might to be tirst to so©
impending dunger should no longer remain in-
different or ovorconlkli'iit. IX the sound-
money sentiment abrotul in the land is to save
from mlsohlet and «i:-ci iter, it must be crys-
tallized and combined and made immediately
active. It is dangerous to overlook the fact
that a vast number of our people with scant
opportunity, thus far. boexumin • the question
in all its aspects, havo nurvertheless been in-
geniously pressed with spocious smrgesiions
which in this time or misfortune and depres-
sion find willing listeners prepared to give
credence to any stheri which is plausibly
presented as a Temedv for their unfortunulo
condition.
What Is now needed more tho n anything else
is a plain and simple present it)on ol the argu-
ment in favor of sound money, la other words
it Is u time forr the AmiTi- ,n po >; :• to reason
together as members of a groat nation which
can promise them a continuance of protection
and safety onlj s long tssolt ncj is un-
suspected, its honor uiisnliie't :i mI the sound-
ness of Its money unquestioned. These things
are ill exchanged for th< Illusions of a debased
currency and groundless ii me of advantages to-
be gained by a dlsroyard of our ilnancial
credit und commercial i.mdJng among tho
nations of the world.
If our people were i^olatod from till others
and if the question our currency could bo
treated without regard ' o our relations to other
countries, its character would bo a matter of
Comparatively little nportance. if the
American people we; . • ne. rned in the
maintenance of their nvci >.19 life among
themselves th' V mi h . . turn to l he old days
of barter, and in this pr i . ve manner acquire
from each other the mat rials to supply the
wants of their cxlitenor. Hut if American,
elvllltallen wen satis lied v th this it would
abjectly fail iu itshi'/it and noble mission.
In these restless days th.- farmer is temptod
by tho assurance that t ,-ji.-Ii our currency
may bo debased, redui-.daiit and uncertain,
such a situation will Impi . . c the price of his
products. Let us rem-1! liim that he must
buy as well as sell; thai ni- di e um of plentv
are shaded by the ceViaiat.v that if ti. price of
the things he has to sell u* nominally enhanced,
the cost of the things he must Imy will not re -
main stationary; that the best prices which
cheapmoney proclaim are un^wbstautial and
elusive and that even if th' V were real and
palpable, he must necossari! \ be left far bo-
hind in tho race for their enj.•. ment.
It ought not to be difficult to convince the
wage-earner that if there wer beiiellts arising
from a degenerated currency they would reach
him least of all and last of all. In an un-
healthy stimulation of pri.*<•- an increased cost
of all needs of his home m .!-1 . : ; to his por-
tion, while he is at the sam-i tiin - vexed with
vanishing visions of in.-r.-as. 1 w...and an
easier lot. The pages of history an i experience
are full of this lesson. An insidious attempt
Is made to create u prejudice ;uv,.inst the advo-
cates of a safe and sound cum ucy i> the in-
sinuation. more or lis, directly made, that
they belong to financial and business classes
and are therefore not only out of sympathy
with the common people of the land, but for
selfish and wicked purposes are willing to
sacritlco the Interests of thoso outside their
circle.
I believe that capital and i' ilih. through
combination and other means. inetitnes gain
an undue advantage, and it iu ; i>< conceded
that the maintenance ol a •undcurreucy may.
in a sense, bo invested with a greater or less
importance to individuals according to tli- ir
condition and circumstanc, . It is. how-
ever, only a difference in derive, since
it is utterly impossible that anyone
in our broad land, rich or poor,
whatever may bo his o.-cupation, and whether
dwelling in a center of tlii ! .'. and commerce
or in u remote corner or : .i main can bo
really benefited by a ti; al scheme, not
alike beneficial to nil on. >pl< or that any
one should be cxclud- I fr ; common and
