The Rev. A. W. Clark of Prague,
Austria, spoke for his field in most
eloquent and convincing manner, AL
luding to the prejudices against foreign
missions, even among good people, he
said that he heard when in the northern
part of the State, that the Bennington
people were noted for their generosity
and sympathy in all Home Mission
work, but were rather Indifferent to the
work in foreign lands. He said 81 can

Several other young men and women,
brought into the light of the Gospel in
the Prague mission; are all doing home
missionary work among the Bohemians
in the United States. Is it not Home

for Home Missionary fields p
Mr.. Clark spoke of Bohemian
mother, who took the hand of an Ameri-
can visiting in Prague, and with fast
flowing tears tried to make him under
stand that she had given her two daugh-
tiers, all she had, to missionary work in
America. Seeing this man from the
'foreign land" to which her children
had gone, her heart went out to him as
in some way connected with her loving
sacrifice to the cause of foreign
missions in the United States.

SILVER.
How Its Free Coinage Would Help the
Farmer as Well as the Miner-Prlces Rise
and Decline In Sympathy With Silver.

How Its Free Coinage Would Help the
Farmer as Well as the Miner-Prices Rise
and Decline In Sympathy With Silver.
There seems to be quite diversity of
opinion among the farmers in regard to
free and unlimited coinage Of silver.
Free coinage means that the govern
ment shall coin all silver brought to the
mint free of charge; unlimited means
that no restrictions shall be placed upon
the amount brought to the mint for
coinage. I.- .t
Don't get alarmed; this was the law
from 1898 to 1873, and it is still the law
in regard to gold coinage. 1t is nota-
bic fact that farm products rise and
fall as the prices of silverrises and falls.
Why is this?
Our rates of coinage are 16 to /, or. in
other words, 16 grains of silver coined
equals in value one grain of gold. Our
silver dollar contains S71]4 grains,
standard silver, worth, as bullion, about
70 cents.
We coin: S7l]4 grains, l6 to l, equals
in value 81 in gold.
BIZ grains bullion equals in value
20 cents in gold.
In England, S714 grains, coined,
equals in value (l5 to y S1.O66 in gold;
People's voice. [volume] (Wellington, Sumner County, Kansas) 1890-1917, 1892-05-06

1855 grains, coined, equals in value rs
toD 81 in gold; S7114 grains-S4S. 3
grains equals 22.95 grains; 22.95 grains
equals in value about six cents in gold.
We coin 3711l grains and fix its value at
25.S grains in gold, which is 81.
England coins 1888 grains and values
it at 25.S grains in gold, which is one
gold dollar, and she has 22.95 grains
left, worth about six cents. Thus we
see English silver coined to the value
OF our gold dollar, costs her 20 cents
(7O-6.)
Well, how does this effect the farm
ers? Our greatest exports are cotton
and wheat. Our greatest buyer is
England India is our greatest com
petitor in those two products India is
a British province and a purely silver
country. England coins silver for her.
We have silver to sell. England buys
our silver, 20 cents for SIX grains.
She coins 1t into rupees to the value of
our gold dollar and has six cents left.
Thus she has an equivalent for our
gold dollar to purchase India wheat.
and for that equivalent she has paid Ms
only 20 cents (7O-6)
Assuming that wheat is worth one
dollar per bushel, England instead of
buying our wheat, buys silver, coins it
into rupees and buys the same amount
of India wheat for 10 cents. Now in Or
der to sell our surplus wheat we must
meet this price in the Liverpool market.
Here Is a discrimination against us
farmers nearly SS1S per cent
Under free coinage no one would sell
silver for less than its coin value. Eng
land then, would have to pay 100 cents
for the silver in the dollar. No profit
would then accrue to her by purchasing
silver, coming it and buying India
wheat, and this discrimination against
American wheat would be relieved.
When the great st. Louis conference
in which were assembled the highest in
tellects to be found in the great labor
organizations, declares unanimously in
favor Of free and unlimited coinage of
silver, and subordinate lodges pass reso-
lutions denouncing it, l am led to ex-
claim surely somebody is mistaken.
For what is to the interest of one labor
ing man is to the interest of another
and surely if we understood those cues
tons we would be of the same opinion.
How forcibly comes the advice: 1--WE
