His rrrmrdifss' rd deception.
Hon. Charles Foster. eN-Secrctary of

istration, has gone TO the wall. finan-
cially. with Liabilities amounting TO
about 5000. 900. We Sympathizc with
him, as every person shonld, in his mis-
fortune, but our sympathy would he
greater If he had not used his official
position as secretary OF the United
States treasury for four years to manu-
facture, or permit TO be manufactured
under his direction false statements
every month regarding the amount of
money in circulation lie even went so
far as to publish an official document
containing false statistics setting forth
that the amount of money in circula-
tion had increased year by year from
1865 down to 1870. There can be no ex-
cuse offered for that dlastardly piece of
work, for it was dohf with the express
and wicked purpose of deceiving the
people.
Now, that he is down, as result par
TALLY of his own infamous financial
policy, we feel natural inclination to
throw the mantle of charity about him
and try to excuse him. but regard for
the truth and for others who may be
made the innocent victims of the same
policy should prompt a record of all the
facts.
His currency statements were pub
lished expressly for campaign dOcu-
ments in the interest of his party.
They were false, absolutely false from
beginning to end and were proven such
by nearly all the best men of his party
and yet he was quoted by politicians
on the stump with as much assurance
as if they were reading from holy writ;
and the falsehoods would be clinched
with the statement that they were
taken from the public documents of
this great nation. lie was held up as a
great man and a great financier and
the farmers with mortgages on their
farms who were presumptuous enough
to question his statements were re-
minded that they should learn to con-
duct their own affairs success
fully before trying to manage the
finances of the government. And yet
there is not one of those farmers to-day
who is so poor financially as Charles
Foster.
When a Kansas farmer fails certain
class of men are ready to say, Good
enough for him, he'd no business to go
in debt. He has been trying to live too
high-he's too extravagant. There is
plenty of money if he's got anything to
sell. If he had lived within his means
he would have come out all right. No
business to go in debt" But no farmer
will be mean enough to say this of Mr..
Foster. They will sympathize with
him though it is plain to be seen that
he is caught in trap which he helped
to set for others. He has pulled his
own house down on him and is now un-
able to extricate himself.-Clay Center

PAY OUT THE SILVER.
The Way to Preserve the Parity of til

The Way to Preserve the Parity of the
Metals Is to Treat Them just Alike.
The New York Tribune, in an edito-
rial discussing the financial situation,
says: the latest declaration of prOmi-
nent democrats in congress, give no in
dication that they are yielding in the
least their desire for free silver coin
age"
Why should they?. The democrats
in congress, with the exception of a
few under w all street influences, rep
resent the masses, and the masses are
for genuine, not sham bimetallism.
They believe in the money of the con-
stitution, silver and gold, the two
metals having equal rights in the
mints, at the treasury and before the
law. They do not want to be mOcked
with pretense of equality that puts
silver into the vaults as merchandise
and treats gold alone as money.
Wall street is clamorous for the issue
of more bonds that the public debt may
be increased and profit be made by deal
ing in these evidences of debt. 1t has
made raids on the treasury to reduce
the stock of gold held as reserve Sc
curity for treasury obligations and
when this has been achieved it endeav
ors to frighten the government into the
issue of bonds to save the credit of the
country" The administration Will be
untrue to itself, to the party to which
it belongs and to the millions who
placed it in power if it yields to the
conspiracy.
There is no obligations to pay any of
the Indebtedness of the country-eX-
cept the gold certificates-in gold
alone Bonds and notes are payable in
coin and the coin of the United States
is the standard dollar of gold and the
standard dollar of silver. Every note
issued under the Sherman act of 1890 is
expressly stipulated to be paid in gold
or silver coin at the discretion of the
secretary of the treasury. Every
"legal-tender' note is redeemable in
coin of either silver or gold, although
neither metal is named in the notes
nor in the law authorizing their issue.
The treasury should be prepared to de-
feat the Wall street conspiracy by coin
ing the silver bullion in the treasury
vaults into standard dollars and pay
ing out coin of both metals.-Cleve-
land Plain Dealer.

with 1913 for the corresponding
week of last year. For the week end

From Shreveport. Vicksburg and

Birmingham and the famous Wills Val
ley of Alabama, is joined at Chatta-
nOoga by the train from Jacksonville,
Fla, Brunswick. and Atlanta, Ga, over

north over the beautiful Cincinnati

could at any time, by any possibility,
be worth any less than a dollar for
every such certain and fixed quantity.
The economic law governing the case
is this: When any metal is accorded
the privilege of unlimited and unre-
stricted coinage, the total product Of
such metal will take to itself its coin
age value and none of il can be obtained
for use in the arts for less than the
monetary value given TO il by coinage
laws, the commercial value being
merged into the monetary value.
That is exactly the position occupied
by gold to-day, and it is just the posi-
tion occupied by silver up to the time
the crime of 1878" was perpetrated.
And with This value, thus artifcially
and arbitrarily impaired by fat of law,
they proceed to measure the value of
all other commodities.
The consequence is that, with a rap
idly increasing population and a con-
stantly decreasing output of gold, the
gold unit, or dollar, steadily increases
in purchasing power, which causes the
phenomena popularity known as fall
ing prices The reason is plain. The
true money standard is quantitive and
not of value. The per capita volume of
''mOney of final redemption" constantly
gets smaller as the output of gold falls
behind in its effort to keep pace with
the increase in population.
The law governing the case is this:
An increase in the per capita volume OF
money, 'units of value" or money Of
final redemption, (the volume of ex-
changeable products remaining the
same) decreases the purchasing power
of each unit; a decrease in such per
capita volume of units of value" in
creases the purchasing power of each
unit.
We shall never be able to arrive at
just and honest dollars worth" until
we either discard entirely the expens-
i've luxury of metallism and inaugurate
a rational and scientific money system
under which all money shall be abso-
lutte and fiat, and simply represent the
ideal. imaginary unit of account, with
its several fractions and multiples,
which is susceptible of indefinite dupli-
cations and multiplications; or else
throw overheard the pernicious falla-
cies of "spec;e basis and specie re-
demption, and supplement our metallic
money with sufficient volume of full
legal tender. absolute paper money,
which shall be. nat a promise to pay
metal, but promise to receice for all
debts and dues, public and private.
Pull together, boys.

WATCH THE GREsNBACK.

The Plutocracy is Paving the WAY for an
Excuse to Call Them in and Retire
Them.
Wall street and the administration
are determined to demOnetize silver,
and to quiet the west and south, which
demand more money, propose state
bank issues in lieu thereof This would
place the country on a gold basis. Gold
would be money of settlement-it
would be the tender stipulated in all
cUuUracJS-anO IN JTIIs CUIu wUuIu
debts be liquidated. The state bank
notes cannot be made legal tender
by the power of issue, hence would not
be the money of account on settlement
day. Inability to obtain gold with
which to liquidate Indebtedness, would
force property settlement-the sher-
ifs hammer would convey to ShylOck
his pound of flesh. But, you say, the
greenbacks, what of them? They are
legal tenders, it is true. But stop. In
the early hour, soon after the wildcat
note springs into existence, it will be
said by the subsidized press that we
are finally landed on terra firma, the
country has an abundance of money,
times are good, everybody is prosper
Gus, and that, WELL in a word, we do
not need the greenbaek. Hold. Don't
get excited. The greenback must go.
The powers that be have SO decided.
But how will they be removed? Easy
enough. Listen:
The greenbacks are debt, non-inter-
est bearing, it is true. The subsidized
press will suddenly set up a 'consisten-
cy' howl. They will say, substan-
TALLY: THE government should liqui-
date its indebtedness as rapidly as pos
sible The bonds are not yet due, but
the greenbacks can be retired" The
repeal of the prohibitory tax on state
bank issues means the esta blishment of
hundreds of these banks all over the
country, and these institutions will is
sue hundreds of millions of state bank
currency. This means the demonetiz-
alton of silver and the retirement of
the greenbacks.
Gold will then be the only legal
tender. As was the case before the
war, about every ten years will come
the day of general settlement, when
property will change hands. In other
words, then will periodical financial re-
vulsions sweep over the land. When
the squall comes the mortgagee will
double and treble his wealth, and the
debtor-he can go farther west.-Non-
conformiSt.

An Honest Confession.

A Los Angeles paper approvingly
quotes the estimate that there is s613,-
900, 900 of gold in the United States, OF
which s51S, 900. 900 is in circulation.
Such n quantity is only mythical AT
the date of reports made early in last
March the national banks in the four
teen reserve cities held total of s113,-
900, 900, and it is proba BILE that not moro
than 500, O0O, 900 of this was in actual
gold, the rest being in the shape of
certificates issued against gold held in
the national treasury and otherwise
counted as as part of the available sup
ply. Allowing for the s10,O00,0O0 un-
derstood to be held by the state
banks in New York and estimating lib.
orally for what is held by other banks
throughout the country, in safe de-
positories and private boards, it is diff
cult to see how there can be a total of
more than $3.50, ,OOO, 900 outside of what
is held by the government. II We sup
pose this estimate to be too small by as
much as 25 per cent. the necessary con,
clusion is that the aggregate of public
and private holdings, in the national
treasury as well as outside of II, does
not exceed s4OO, 600, 900 or barely two
thirds of the amount claimed.
