years the value Of silver has deprecated 10 per
rent. The decline IN It's value has been uni.
forsn1Y raptd. aa the suppty from the constantly.
developed mincs Inns been steadily tncronscd.h
As tho highest price silver ever reached In mod
crn times was i03 in gold, ant, as It h atii worth
nt,out 90 cents, wo submit that this decline OF
10 per cent IL not 70, nor has tho decline
in its ralue bccn tunlformly rapid" Since
tho coinage Of American subsidiary si'-
vcr commenced, eighteen months ago. there
f,ns been no decline whatever. The pas
sage OF that art helped greatly to advance e!lvcr
from the point where Il had suddenly fallen to
