THE AUTOMATIC REGULATION
OF MONEY.

Mr.. EDITOR:-The Importance of the
principle of automatic regulation Of
money is in danger of being overlooked
in the mad race to set up the single
gold standard.
AS long as it is possible to produce
the precious metals in quantities sufi-
Gent to keep pace with the production
of other things, it is possible to have
money supply regulated by the same
laws that govern the production Of
commodities generally, and in this way
to maintain a close approximation to
stability in the purchasing power Of
standard money.
If gold could be produced in quantity
sufficient to keep pace with the grow
ing needs for money, arising from in
crease of population and wealth, then
stability could as well be secured with
the single as with the double standard.
But the admitted fact is that gold can
not be produced with such regularity
and in such quantity as is necessary to
meet the increasing demand for it in the
arts and at the same time supply the
growing needs for money. Neither has
silver in the past been produced in
quantities sufficient alone to supply the
needs for money. Indeed, at times
and sometimes for long periods, as dur
ing the middle ages-the production of
both metals together was not sufficient
even to keep the money volume intact.
On the contrary, from the beginning
Of the Christian Era to the discovery of
America, the total stock of both metals
fell from about 81, $40, 600, 900 to 1854,
600, 900 at the close of the Fifteenth cen
fury. But since the discovery of Amer
lea, except during the Spanish Ameri-
cad wars when many of the mines of
the New World were closed, the produc-
ton Of both metals has been sufficient
to fairly keep up the supply of money,
and thus to maintain approximate sta
bility in the purchasing power Of the
metals.
While there has been at times a lack
of gold and silver for money, the world
has never suffered from an oversupply
of these metals, and for the simple
reason that continued oversupply is
impossible; for, if the production of
the metals should at any time increase
beyond the growth of population and
wealth, the o%versupply would be indi
Gated by a rise of prices, which would
continue till the point was reached
when a dollar could be obtained with

Lose labor or with less sacrifice by pro
ducing something else than by mining
the metal out of which to MAKE Un0
dollar. and the production OF ne metais
would thereby be checked while u
production of other things WouId De
stimulated. Through this regulating
principle. as long as the supply OF tne
metals last. the stability in the value
of the precious metals may oe larry
maintained. It is only through legs
lation that wide fluctuations, IN recenU
years, have taken place.
Because of this principle CT seI
regulation, and this alone, the precious
metals, through the process OF evolu-
ton, have gained acceptance every
where as money. Indeed, but for this
principle of the automatic adjustment
of money supply to other things, there
would be no advantage IN metalllc
money over paper money. This prln-
ciple of automatic regulation has been
in all ages the conserving force IN Sc
curing stability in money and main
tanning the equities Of time obligations.
It has survived all revolutions and pre-
served the value of money amid the
rise and fall of nations. When this
principle is given up what will take its
place? Will it be legislative regulation?
Do they who now clamor for the over
throw Of the bimetallic standard com
prehend what they are doing7 If BIZ
metallism is overthrow the principle
of automatic regulation of money goes
With it. When this is gone, on what
will be equities of contracts, extending
into the future, rest?
Do gold monometallists understand
the significance of a change from the
automatic regulation of money to legis,
lative regulation, or perhaps to spas
modic regulation by banks? There is
safety for all in RELOCATING the supply
of standard money to the laws that
govern the supply Of everything else;
and until some method of regulation
better than has ever yet been devised,
is worked out, the safest side is to ad-
here to the principle sanctioned by the
experience of SO many ages.

NOT THE c OF 1900
But the Manner of its Execution the
Cause of the Expulsion of Gold.

But the Manner of its Execution the
Cause of the Expulsion of Gold.
In itself, the act of 1890 does not
operate to expel gold any more than
any other measure, which, by increas-
ing the money volume, tends to raise
or keep up prices here above the inter
national level of prices in gold, and
thus to cause a movement in gold to
restore price levels; and any other
kind of money, bank notes or even ex-
tended bank credits will operate in the
came way. But even this result would
not follow unless the increment in the
money volume exceeded the require.
ments Of increased population and
business. While the second section of
the act of 1890 permits the Secretary of
the Treasury TO redeem the notes issued
under this act in gold or silver coins.
at his option, the third section SAYS:
1.-The Secretary of the Treasury shall
coin of the silver bullion purchased
under the provisions Of this act as
much as may be necessary to provide
for the redemption of the Treasury
notes therein provided for" Thus the
Secretary is required to provide for
the redemption of these notes by coin
ing so much of the bullion as NAV be
necessary for that purpose and in no
other way. This provision is manda-
tory, and not discretionary. The Sec.
rotary has no authority under this act.
or any other act, to provide for the re.
demption of these notes DIV iss,,ino

DEAR SIR:-T enclose a list of ''coun-
try homes whose owners have been
ruined by the low price of cotton and
whose homes are now offered for sale
bv the Caldwell and Judah Mortgage
Company. Here is a list Of fifty eight
farms offered for sale by a single mort
gage company and the closing out OF
farmers is barely commenced. Those
marked with a cross in pencil are in the
valley here and are in a section that is
as fertile as the valley Of the Nile. You
will notice that these farms, part
wooded and part under cultivation, IN
Guiding buildings, cotton gins and all
improvements are offered at an aver
age of some SO per acre, a figure not
over one-third of what they should
bring, as the wild land alone is worth
$40. This list is not all that this com
pany has taken in. The larger places.
in this valley, bid in by them at 30 t
% cents on the dollar, they have re,
tanned for themselves and, I am in
formed that they lost a large sum Of
money last year running those places,
raising cotton, and they will lose more
this year.
There is no money in this valley and
land and lumber are absolutely unsafe
able can sell my clear lumber to go
North usually, though just now we can
not sell in the North, but coarse lum-
Der for building cabins, etc, here can
not be sold and to ship it North will
hardly pay freight. I cannot sustain
myself in the lumber business and must
stop. About all of the lumber mills
around me have failed or shut down.
1 have quit cutting logs in the woods
and as soon as I can saw up the logs
already cut and sell the lumber, I will
quit and go to buying CARROTS of lumber
and shipping North.
There is nothing but serfdom before
the people of the South and West, I'M
less there is a change that will give
them a living price for the products of
their farms.
Everything is at a dead lock-banks
refusing accommodations to their Gus
toners, compelling everybody to pay
up and not paying out a single nickel
that they can avoid, The government,
banks and people all are short OF
money. If this and a heavy fall in
prices until wheat is lower than ever
before known, is not proof that there is
not near money enough, then in Gods
name when can we get proof of it2

SENATOR

A few days ago the exchanges in
Memphis adopted resolutions favoring
the unconditional repeal of the Sher-
man law and criticizing Senators Har-
ris and Bates, of Tennessee. Monday,
Mr.. Harris referred to the resolutions
as follows:
Nh. Harris sent to tie clerks desk
the resolutions adopted at a joint meet
ing Of the Memphis Cotton Exchange
and Merchants Exchange and said that
as these resolutions reflected somewhat
upon himself personally he desired to
have them read, so that he might sub
NIT some remarks. Mr.. Harris said
that those resolutions criticized in terms
more or less severe to his colleagues
and himself, as having been derelict in
the discharge of their duty to the con-
stitutiOn and in the matter of repeal of
the Sherman law. With great respect
to those exchanges, he trusted that
they would pardon him for saying,
that he had the vanity to believe that
he knew his duty to his constituents
quite as we'll as, and possibly even bet
ter, than they did. He failed to re-
member exactly how and when they
became authorized to speak for or rep
resent the views and interests Of the
whole people of Tennessee. He was in
clined to think that if the whole peo-
pie of that State were appealed to, they
might possibly r~epudiate the authority
of those exchanges to represent them
on that question.
