The Journal asks this question ::

The Journal asks this question:
Who finds himself as well off as he was six
years ago?
ANS. The bondholder is worth twice as
much as he was six years ago, because the
pure hasing power OF his bond has doubled
i'll six years. The money hoarder is worth
more than he was six years ago. even if he
has received no interest during the time. by
the increase of the purchasing power of his
money. What the masses have lost by falling
prices, the fundholders and money lenders
have gained. -Chase's Chronicle (Maine.)
Nothing could be palmer than that
proposition. There is just rs much
land, wheat. wool, iron, cotton, food,
clothes, in the United States as there
was ten years ago but the ownership
is concentrated in fewer hands. AS
the value of money rose the volume
of debt increased and with it the

cause is plain:-the Book Ring have
