The Capital argues that 'the debts
ofall Kansas debtors are comparative
ly new, and that as general state
ment, it is safe to say, that every dol
lar was borrowed since we have been
on q gold basis, and hence that to pay
in silver dollars is practically to rob
the creditor Of 30 per cent. Of the
amount borrowed" The Capital
however, is careful not to mention the
fact that the necessity for these re-
cent loans "since we have been on q
gold basis' grew out of the indebted
ness that had been made on a green
back basis, but which had not been
paid on that basis, because of the con-
traction policy which had been es-
tabllshed by the Republican party
and its Democratic allies, in order to
force greenbacks up to the abnormal
and unnatural value which had been
given to gold during the war by the
exception clause" placed upon the
legal tender treasury note by the act
of February 25, 1862. 1t is not good
logic, good morals, or sound politics
to take advantage of the conditions
created by this primary wrong to the
people, and its sequel, the contraction
policy, as an argument against the
payment of the existing indebtedness
Of the people, in silver or any other
form Of full legal tender money that
may be established by law.

As compared with products, gold
is remarkable for its tendency to Auct-
uate. During the rebellion, when gold
had ceased to circulate as money, and
treasury notes had become the stan
dsrd in all commercial trans actions,
the prices of products of all kinds
were comparatively steady, while gold
was violently fuctusting all the time,
clearly indicating its unstable char
acter. The value of loaf Of bread
two thousand years ago was substan-
tally what it is now, while gold, as
compared Herewith, has deprecated
several thousand per cent The sp-
parent stability in the present price of
gold grows out Of the fact that we have
hedged it about with laws which
makes any material Auctuation in it's
money value impossible.

BY perusing the following from the
New York Journal of Finance Of
Fahruarv 10.


New York Journal of Finance Of
February 12:
A Colorado banker claims to have unearthed
a combination tamcng Eastern spectators to
manipulate the price Of silver bullion. He
charges that the prices paid by the government
for silver bullion under the present coinage act
are controlled by clique or ring of spectators
who raise or depress silver quotations at their
own pleasure and for their own profit.
"The mini" he continues, "buYs silver twice q
month, receiving sealed bids or tenders Of the
amount Of silver desired, which varies from g.
100000 to &4,6OOO,OOO. BY some means, best known
to themselves, the manipulators OF the silver
market always know these dates OF purchase
far In advance Of anyone else. The bids or offers
OF silver to the government are always made by
members Of the combine and the prices named
In the bids are so arranged that the awards
must always be made to a member Of the ring.
"TheSe men know where every pound Of silver
In the United States ls and who owns it. They
absolutely control the market both as to prices
and supply. Between the days on which the
government buys silver the price Is depressed,
but when the United States is In the market as
a purchaser quotations 60 up and the ring takes
It's profit. Not only is the government mulcted
in thlyway, but the silver producer on small
scale who cannot get into the ring Is simply
robbed. Many members of Congress are fllllv
GOGre Of the eriStence of this stlUer clique and
knOU all about ttS manipulattOns, If they do not
share IN It's profits. That such q state of affairs
Is possible % a crying outrage.
"TheSe men take advantage Of the conditions
created by the law providing for the coinage
Of 100000 silver dollars month. Such law
Invited rich men to obtain control Of the silver
The fault lies In leaving the material Of which
our circulating medium Is made marketable
commodity, like wheat or corn, at the mercy Of
The remedy is either free coin
age or the total demOnetizati0n Of silver. am
In favor Of the former, and think free coinage,
oither unlimited or restricted to American pro-
duct, would be Of vast benefit to this country"
We have taken the liberty to itsli-
oise one sentence which is particu-
larly worthy Of note and which is
true beyond a question Of doubt. The
peculiar adaptation of our present
silver law to precise manner of specu-
Istion above indicated, is such as to
lispel all doubt from any unbiased
mind, that it is the result of design.
Il any one can point to a single.meas-
IRE that has been engineered through |
Congress by old John Sherman in
he last twenty years, that was not SO
framed as to specially pro-
ride for just this character of specu-
atoms by the den of gamblers and
'obbers with which he is identified,
We would like to know the title of the
act. When impartial history shall
.ecord it's verdict Of his character for
he information of coming genera
ions, there will be no name in the
annals of our country that will be COW
,red with blacker infamy.
