In 1884 the present Chief Justice of the United States
Roger fancy at that time Secretary of the Treasury,
laid down the following economical axioms the truth of
which has been abundanty corroboratcd by the experience
of subsequent years
Gold and silver will circulate where banks issue
notes that come in competition with them for it will in
Mriably happen that when the circulating medium is
posed Of different kinds of money and of them is less
valuable than the other but not sufficiently deprecated
to be discredited the inferior will after time become
the general currency and the valuable will entirely
disappear This is obvious in the States where the banks
issue notes low dollar for silver dollars
found in circulation where paper freely issued by
the banks In order therefore, to bring the precious
metals into sc the rvaship of paper must be eectraly
taken away. We must not only the notes of the
