party had declared for reformation of
the tariff, the occupancy of this chair
maDship by Mr.. Randall made it i'm
possible to do what it was
proposed to do. Hence the
Morrison bill was killed, and then the
Hewitt bill had a worse fate in not
even getting before the House. Mr..
Randall stood in the way of any re-
lief from tariff taxation, and should
he hold the same place in the
next Congress revenue reform
will be defeated even in advance
of any attempted legislation upon the
subject. The power of this chairman
is shown by the manner il which he
held back appropriations in the House

4 Arctic TamnaAt

It is impossible, according to Arctic
explorers, to form an adequate idea
of a tempest in the polar seas. Ice
bergs are then like floating rocks
whirled along a rapid current. The
huge crystal mountains dash against
each other, backward and forward,
bursting with a roar like thunder,
and return to the charge until, losiog
their equilibrium, they tumble over
in a cloud of spray, with noise like
the Kissing Of a monster serpent.
The sea gulls fly away screaming,
and often whale comes putting to
the surface. When the midnight sun
grazes the horizon, the floating noun

would, in time, expel gold from circu-
lation; but as long as population and
wealth go on increasing, then the con :
ditions of the problem are changed.
In fact, in order to preserve stable
ratio between money volume and pop
ulation and wealth, an annual increase
of not less than 100000 of cur
rency of some kind is now required.
In other words, the increase of popu-
Iation and wealth calls for an addition
to our circulation of at least SAC, 600, 600
a year, If, while these conditions con-
tinue, silver is coined at the rate of
only $28.OOO,OO0 year there Is left still
a considerable void to be filled with
gold. The increasing scarcity of
gold must be remedied by the
increased circulation of silver in the
shape of certificates when the people
prefer to have such paper. The mon
etary condition IF the world shows
that gold production has fallen below
its consumption in the arts, and that
there is no probability of any new
GOLD for money supply for the centur-
les to come. With this condition of
things as to gold, shut off silver, and
where is the money supply, even for
keeping up the stock of coin now in
the hands of the world. to come from.

SILVER AND GOLD.

The opponents of silver refuse to
consider silver coinage. and make
their comparisons between gold and
silver on the silver bullion basis.
Silver bullion, which is excluded from
monetary use, is less than eighty-five
per cent. of the gold dollar, but tn
silver dollar will exchange for just as
much as the gold dollar. 1t will even
buy the gold with which a gold dollar
may be made. France, with a popula-
ton of thirty-six million, and a terri
tory not as large as Texas, has in cir
culation $600,0O0OOO Of silver with
S50.OOO.O0O in gold, while we have
$200O00,OC0 of full tender silver to
$600,000,CO0 in gold. Altogether
81, 100000 of silver coins
at the rate of five and half to
one are held in circulation in Europe,
side by side with $2,6O0OOO,OOO of
gold. Of paper and silver together,
including silver certificates, we have
less than $750OoO,oc0, which shows
that in this country there is more
gold than paper and nearly three
times as much gold as silver. With
this proportion in our currency, and
with gold and silver equally full
tender for everything, it is difficult to
understand why the Secretary of the
Treasury might not, if he chose to DO
so, pay more silver and less gold. 1t
is entirely at his discretion to do so.
The gold advocates alone claim that it
is obligatory upon the Government to
pay off any of its bonded obligations
in gold. 1t is not believed that the
continued coinage of silver will drive
gold out of circulation in the near fu-
ture, or force it to premium. 1t is
believed to be a principle of economic
science, perfectly well settled, that if
volume of $750,OO0,OOO is not sufficient
in itself to maintain prices in this
country at the level of international
prices, then gold will come here and
stay here in sufficient amount to
make, with the volume already in
circulation, what will constitute
our distributive share of the
worlds money as determined by our
international trade. It is not believed
to be in the power of all the banks of
the country. if so disposed, to take
gold out of circulation and hold it for
any length of time at a premium.
They must first lock up the worlds
meney and arrest the worlds COM
merce. Nor can the paper or silver,
or silver certificates, now in circula-
ton side by side with gold, expel the
gold. The gold can be expelled only
by forcing into circulation, in addition
S720,OO0OO0. either silver or paper.
equal to the entire volume of
gold now in circulation. The
silver advocates hold that if
population and wealth in this country
were at stand, then the continued
coinage of silver in sufficient volume
