Legal tender Commodity.

1t is not that silver has fallen in
value, but gold has risen in value be-
cause of the fact that it has been con-
stituted the sole measure, not only of
its own value. but of the value of all
other commodities.
If silver were rehabilitated and unre-
stricted coinage privileges accorded to
it at a ratio of sixteen to one, every
ounce of silver would at once become
worth 81. 49, because, as is the case with
gold, it would become the measure of
its own value. The rule is this:
When unrestricted coinage privileges
are accorded to metal and a certain
monetary value is given by law to
given quantity of such metal, the COM
mercial value is merged into the none
tary value and the total output of such
metal acquires and commands the
monetary value into which it may free
ly be converted by taking it to the
mint. GEORGE G. WARD.

OUR FUTURE POLICY.

Shall 1t Be Paper Alone or Shall 1t Be
Metal Reinforced by Legal Tender
Paper?
Section of the Virginia state popu-
list platform reads as follows:
The free and unlimited coinage OF silver and
gold at the legal ratio of .6 to /. national
currency, safe sound and flexible: full legal
tender for all debts, public and private; issued
by the general government only based on it,
credit, not on it's Indebtedness: in volume sum-
cient to maintain a healthy condition Of bust
ness, and distributed directly among the people
when demanded on the secur1tv OF their prop
erty, at a reasonable rate of interest under
such system as the wisdom OF congress may de.
wise We are unalterablv opposed to state
bank currency or any other tn IN national cur
rency, because OF its undesirableness. and be-
cause the constitution OF the United States
confers the power to issue money on the gen.
eral government only, and this power cannot be
delegated.
From the able pen of Thomas Gaines,
editor of the Comanche (Tex.) Ex-
ponent, we clip the following article:
''The men who are dominating our
finances to-day claim that IS $40 grains
of gold is worth as much as 651 n grains
of silver. They claim that this is the
commodity value Tor in their defective
parlance the intrinsic" value) of the
respective metals, and that that ratio
would alone mean parity at present.
They claim also to advocate bimetal.
ism on what they term a parity.
cit is also claimed that in settling
foreign balances in gold and silver the
commercial value only is considered
sit has, therefore, been suggested
that, both gold and silver be demone-
tized. and paper money alone take their
place; that all gold and silver coins be
called in and paper substituted on the
ratio above mentioned, or such other
permanent ratio as may be fixed by
congress; that congress melt al such
coins into bullion bars and hold same
to sell to importers or others, to settle
foreign balances. if they should be de-
manded. and II no demands were made

WHAT CHUMPS.

How Voters Are Led Into Plutocratic
Webs.
The army of idlers are rapidly in
creasing at an alarming rate. AS large
as it now is, it will be much larger.
During the war John Sherman ia thered
a bill in congress to advertise the ad-
vantages of this country and the high
wages paid to workingmen. Twenty
five thousand dollars were appropri-
ated for paying for the printing of
pamphlets, circulars and posters in
foreign languages, and the cheap labor
countries of the old world were liter
ally covered with them. John Sher-
man, in his speech introducing that
bill, argued that capital must be en-
couraged, and in addition to the Nor
rill tariff must have cheaper labor,
that wages were to high These are
facts. Congressional records prove it.
The same Internal skink, along with
others Of his ilk, are now working to
give cheap labor to capitalists. With
ten men after one job, wages will soon
be cheap enough. ALI the great rail-
roads and other corporations are now
saying wages must coz down-and
they will come down
But what chumps the people are!
Capital asks for favors and gets them.
Congressman start in poor and come
out rich, Notwithstanding their cleo
ton and other expenses amount to far
more than their salary
Labor petitions and petitions for
few of its rights and gets snubbed for
it's pains.
Our servants couldn't grow rich if
they needed the petitions.
Congressman prefer to stand I'M
with the plutocrats. BY doing so they
get a portion of the wealth stolen from
la Dor by and through unjust laws
But we repeat. what chumps the
workers are.
They elect corporation tools to office
and then expect these pimps to pass
laws beneficial to the great mass of our
people.
They saddle themselves and the
plutes get on and ride-and sometimes
we feel like saying we don't blame the
plutes one bit; for the man who saddles
himself and invites another to get on
and ride, ought not to complain if the
man accepts the invitation.-Ch

common storehouse. Presentation OF
the certificate of cancellation would re-
lease to the holder that amount of the
coined labor of others Every pro-
Queer would then enjoy the full value
of his product. We agree with our
cotemporary, give us free and unlimited
coinage of potatoes, wheat, corn, cot
ton, and all other products. Give us
certificates of deposit of our bullion
product at it's labor cost, redeemable
in any other products at Nthe. same
ratio, and the cooperative effort of the
whole nation to produce to best ad-
vantage, with neither landlords, or
money-lenders, or traders to absorb
our surplus. -Twentieth Century.
Why is it that some cannot compre-
bend that legal tender, inconvertible
paper money, representing not me-
tallic ''unit of value" consisting of a
certain quantity of metal, but the nat
ural, invaria BILE, abstract unit of ac-
count" would serve all the purposes OF
time checks. Costing nothing and is
sued by the government for services
rendered, or value received, all labor
and, therefore, all labor's products
would be differentiated by and bal
anced against each other, in proper
tionate ratio, and not against, or by an
artificial and legal value given to GER
tain quantity of metal. The metallic
unit is limited by the quantity Of metal
available for money use, but the true
unit of account is ideal and abstract
and capable of indefinite multiplica-
ton. Money based upon the natural
unit of account, issued in sufficient
quantities, would differentiate all of
labor's products and afix their value
according to the duration of life of the
laborers producing such products; i. g..
the value of the different kinds Of la
Dor.
With this kind of money and govern
mental banks to receive the peoples
deposits and loan them at the cost OF
the banking system, consumers would
receive all commodities and products
at cost of production and distribution,
while all engaged in production and
distribution would receive the exact
value of their labor.

WHY USE TIME CHECKS?

Inconvertible Paper Money and Govern
ment Banks Will Fill the Bill.
The peoples party has been saved
from what threatened it's ruin. Saved
by an impending defeat When the
silver debate began two weeks ago it
appeared to many observers that the
populists were so entangled in the
meshes of free silver" that only costly
of all palliative measures that left the
capitalist system intact. The two
weeks delay has enlightened no party
more than it has the rank and file Of
the populists. To-day they realize
more clearly than ever before that the
kind of money or the quantity of money
is not the main issue between pro-
ducers and capitalist robbers.
Had the populists been granted their
financial demands they would have
little temporary relief, but capitalists
would have the final proceeds. So with
their other demands, which are but
palliatives The merciless power of
money which defeats them now has
done them the greatest favor by un-
masking itself. 1t has convinced earn
est populists that there is no stopping
place for the producer short of the
complete overthrow Of capitalist pro-
duction and the complete acceptance
of the cooperative common wealth.
Not all of the party see this, but there
appears an unmistakab1e tide within
the last few days that augers we'll for
a spread of radical doctrines.
They recognize the defect Of free
coinage of silver as already accom-
plished It is only to formally an
nounce it by the vote. No other ratio
can or will be considered by peoples
party man than the one now coined.
If the silver mine owners accept any
other ratio they part company. The
idea of intrinsic value in coin has
passed, and to-day the idea of metallic
money holds only minority of the
populists. Judged by it's cost of pro-
duction, even at 16 to ratio, it costs
no more to produce five dollars worth
of gold bullion than five dollars in sill
YER Both would exchange at their
labor cost much below the value rated
as coin, and as the coin superstition
passes there appears disposition to
drop both metals. The proposition of
the silver men to accept "a ratio of 30 to
has opened the eyes of populists to
the fact that there is a profit to the
mine owner at that ratio, as his work
ing miners must work for coal mine
wages hereafter.
One populist exchange comes to us
from Portland, Ore, with startling
headlines: eve demand the free and
unlimited coinage of potatoes" They
have evidently seen the cat.
A cooperative commonwealth would
mean the free and unlimited coinage OF
every useful product at it's labor cost,

THE SHERMAN LAW.

It Has Put Into Circulation Treasury Notes
Equal to the Market Value of Silver
Bought.
The position that l have always
maintained, that the Sherman law puts
very few treasury notes in circulation,
has been regarded by many as mot
we'll taken" AS corroborating testi-
mony on this subject l desire to quote
what Senator Vance said about it
when the bill was under consideration
in the senate. This is his language
July 10, 1890:
THE bill will not result in an in
crease of the currency, inasmuch as
the 100000 or 5000, 900 of treasury
notes issued each month for silver will
be presented at the treasury and ex-
changed for gold coin, and will then be
used for the next months purchase, and
SO on. 1t will be like the stone of Syst
plus, rolling up and rolling down, or
like the chorus in travelling ballet
when it is short of members and has to
double up it's characters. appearing in
pantaloons at one moment and in petit
coats another"
Senator Vance foresaw the whole
scheme just as it has transpired. It
was never intended to put more cur
rency in circulation; but. like every
other Wall street measure it was de-
signed to curtail the circulation by cut
ting off the 80, 600, 900 per month previ-
ously coined under the Bland-Allison
act. and substituting a measure under
which there would be nothing to take
its PLACES. McLallin, in Topeka Ad-
vocate.
With due Difference to Senator Vance
and my esteemed brother, DIR. McLal-
lin, must insist that they are both
wrong. On July /, 1890, there were NO
treasury notes of 1890 in circulation,
while on September l, 1898, there was
1854, 343, 707 of such notes. s., 461, 749 be-
ing in the United States treasury and
e149, 1871, 95s in the hands of the people.
