thing which, according to their theory. he is

Blaine has the machine and the delegates.

The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1892-11-09

AS silver fell relatively to gold, the
Austrian export OF silver to the east, in
the accustomed form of the Maria The
resa thaler, increased.
There is one feature of the India trade
which seems to have escaped altogether
the attention OF the British commission,
although it has a direct bearing upon
the power OF the east in general, and Of
India in particular, to steady the rela-
tive value Of the metals. OF the 81 l,5O0,-
100000 absorbed by India in the forty
years ending with 1876, one-third was
gold. Gold is not demanded there for
use as money, but as luxury, and when
it rises in value India viii export it or
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1892-11-09


import it in less measure, which is the
same thing in It's effect. upon the rela"
tive value of the two metals.
Comparing the first eleven months OF
1876 with the same months of 1875, we
find the excess of gold imports into Eng
land from India and China, respectively,
over exports from England to these
countries, to have been as follows:
From India. :. ............. s,n7 ei.Iss,4as
From China. .............. HS.5OS T67,9oS
1t is thus that the east will restore
and steady the relation Of the metals, not
merely by taking silver, but by giving up
gold, or by taking it in less quantities.
In this way India may, to some extent,
obtain the silver it needs, notwithstand-
ing that the amount it has to pay an
nually in London as interest on debts
has become SO much greater than for
merly. In whatever proportion it gives
up the purchase of gold, or sells the gold
it has in it's possession, it will find new
resource for acquiring silver. Gold will
be sure to be given up as the necessity
for money (silver) becomes urgent.
Proportion of gold in the worZd's metallic
supply greatly increased since 1848.
Since the voyages Of Columbus, the
two forces which, acting against each
other, have controlled the value of the
precious metals, both in their relation
to commodities and in their relation to
each other, have been the supplies from
the new world, and the demand for them
of that preponderant mass of the human
race inhabiting eastern Asia. So far as
the relative value of the two metals is
concerned, these opposing forces came to
an equipoise about the middle OF the
seventeenth century, which has been
substantially maintained for more than
two centuries, and down to the erratic
movement of the last two years.
In respect to the supplies OF the pre-
cious metals since the discovery OF
America, that of silver, from its bulk and
weight, and the methods Of it's produc-
tion, is the more easily ascertained.
Statisticians have always assumed that
they had tolerablY accurate accounts and
estimates Of the silver production OF
Spanish America, which has furnished
the greater part of the worlds supply OF
silver since 1892. The production ofgold
is not SO easily ascertained; but so large
proportion of what has been found
within this century has come from the
highly civilized communities of Cali
fornia and Australia, where records are
kept Of coinages and of exports OF coined
and uncoined treasure, that estimates OF
totals may be fairly reliable, although
embracing some productions not likely
to be accurately reported.
Distinguishing the periods prior and
subsequent to the California discovery,
we have the following estimates:

which is it's principal money, current by
weight. That empire is now proposing
for the first time in its history, to estab
llsh q mint for the coinage Of silver
Such a coinage would have an immense
influence in extending the monetary use
Of silver in that country. tt would cause
the same substitution of cash for barter
which followed the establishment Of 8
mint in India, and, in addition, would
replace with small silver coins the cum
bersome coins Of base metal now en-
ployed. The American minister to China
writing from Pekin, August 8, 1875, says
the prospect Of the establishment Of Q
mint ID excellent"
Current facts show how groundlesl
was the apprehension, which was 80 large
an element in producing the late silver
panic, that the east would cease to alb
sorb SILVER. The food of that metal tC
the Orient has already set in again with
redoubled force. The London Ec0nOnnis
gives the following as the silver exports
from England for the years 1875 and
1876, respectively:
To British India. ..... -. e3,23I 266 e9 229 l2s
TO CntnA.. ...............' SoS lSl A,zAS 20
Rating the pound at $485, this was an
aggregate export in 1876 to India and
China of $45,975,438. In three only Of
the last twenty.six years has it been
greater. The average of the last twenty
six years was S28,748.O77. In 1876 il
was, therefore, $17.O00,0O0 in excess OF
this average, and the prices of India
products are still abnormally depressed
which is another mode of saying that
the India demand for silver is still un-
usually great.
But the figures thus commented upon
do not give the whole case, and especially
in respect to China, inasmuch as, by
recent change in the course of trade
much larger amounts than formerly are
being sent to the east from San Fran
cisco, and o good deal Of it on Londor
orders and account. The amount sem
during the year 1876 was $9,119,03l.
During January and February OF the
present year, the silver export from Sar
Francisco to China and Japan has beer
81, ,6256S1, and the British silver expor
to China and India has been 92, OPS
or upward Of $lO,OOOOO0. This is mor'
than three times what it was in the cor
responding months Of 1876.
We have in the operations of the vi
emma mint another illustration, and on
considerable scale, of the sure tendenc,
of the east to absorb silver when it fall
in it's gold price at the west. 1t has lonI
been the practice Of that mint to strik
particular coin, the Maria There's
thaler, for expectation to the east, an,
especially to Egypt, where it has beel
for many years familiar and favorit
species of money. The amount of thi
coinage, rating to Austrian forms a
equal to one dollar. has been as follows

The estimate from 1892 to 1848 Is that
of Chevalier, which Soetbeer adopts.
The estimate from 1849 to 1876 is
based, as TO most of the years, upon the
figures OF Sir Hector Hay. The estimate
Of the London Economist is rather less.
That of Soetbeer is about the same. But
the differences IN the COMMONPLACE
cepted estimates are not important.
When We pass from the question OF
current supplies to the other questions
Of the stocks on hand, OF the location OF
stocks as between the east and west,
and Of the proportions Of gold and silver
at various dates, we are confronted by
doubts and difficulties at every point.
IF the amount Of gold and silver pro-
duced since 1892 were accurately ascer-
