The Silver Dollar.

The sun. the moon. the earth and
all the planetary host might possibly
have been made out of nothing. hut
We feel absolutely sure that nothing
else ever was. This is As true Of
money As Of everything else Every
dollar, TO have the purchasing power
Of dollar. must be worth leo cents.
A Mississippi farmer who wrote to a
New York journal a letter on the sill
Yer question, had very sound views on
the question. He presents a somewhat
homely. but very clear and forcble
argument. We commend his article to
the careful perusal Of the readers OF
the AMERICAN. 1t reads as follows:
II am a farmer and do not know much
about politics, but do see some serious
flaws IN the Bland bill. The aim nf the
friends OF silver Is to raise the price Of
that metal by putting Government credit
behind It. Now my coonty does not pro
iuCe an ounce of silver nor an ounce Of
snything valuable in the mineral line. II
the price OF silver is advanced artidCiAlly,
will il not take more of our timber. more
pigs, more corn. more calves to get II:
Are dollars to be msde more plentiful
How: | know of just one WAY To get
dollars. and that is to iiud some man who
has dollars and who wants something he
does not have, more than he wants hi-
dollars, and who will give me hi dollars
for something which prize less than do
his dollars. In other words, ! trade nv
labor, my pigs, my cotton, my cows for
The dollars of some man who needs labor.
pigs, cotton, or cows more than he needs
dollars.
Now, II two employers are after one
laborer, a. in Montana, wages are high; If
two lsborers are after one boss a. In
some large cities of the East wages are
low. II two pigs are after 81 pigs are
low; If So are after one pig pigs are high.
II dollars. OF whatever kind, get so abund
ant that three OF four Of them get after
one pig pigs will go very high; and II
dollars reach the point where they are
made by the million out Of silver, and
copper, and tin, and represent nothing but
themselves pigs may be expected 70 hest
tate before they will trade themselves OF
for something a. common a. leaves in
October, and it will take q great many
more dollars TO get one pig than 1t would
take II the pig had no question Of their
value. But these extra dollars will do the
man who sells the pig no good. because
the man who sells spools of thread aud
calico will want more Of them for his
goods. This happens, not because the pig
and the calico are worth more. but because
the dollars are worth less. respectfully
urge that far more popular measure will
