SALT LAKE TRIBUNE. The row

SALT LAKE TRIBUNE The row
created in the Reichstag by the
statement Of Ahlwardt IS Of interest
on this side only to the extent that
it is true that the great Jewish bank
ing houses OF Europe are in such
close relations with the Govern
ments, that they virtually, so far as
the finances are concerned. control
those Governments. II there had
never been house OF Rothschild in
the WORLD, there would lot have been
bit OF trouble about the demonet-
ization OF silver. II woule have been
just as good as gold to-day, every
where this world over. We defy
any man TO show where silver was
ever deprecated the least bit in
value as compared with gold, where
the governments of the earth recog
nized each metal alike. The breaking
down of silver, or the same thing.
the imitation OF gold, has been done
altogether by legislation, and there
Is no question but what that legisla-
ton has come merely through the
bondhoiders demand. 1t has always
emanated from the bankers, and the
design has been the same since the
days Of Solomon, to keep the real
money OF the world SO reduced in
volume that its purchasing power
would be at the highest point, and
every industry on earth would be
made subject to it. That the world
will sit by listlessly and let this pro
coed is the great mystery of the age.
One fact which we desire to empha-
size particularly, is that there has
never. been any difference in the
relative value of silver and gold pro-
duced by natural causes; that it has
always been through legislation, and
that legislation has meyer been
prompted by the people, but exclu-
sively by the men who deal in
NATIONAL securities, the bond buyers
and sellers, the money llaners, and
it is one of the strangest things in
the world. There was not gentle
nan who sat in the Brussels confer
ence who would not instantly admit
that II England, France, Germany,
and the United States would agree
upon some standard between gold
and silver, anywhere from to Is to
] to 90, and decree that certain
number OF grains of each metal at
that ratio should henceforth repre-
sent the unit OF values, silver would
s be just as good as gold in fifteen
minutes We believe that there is
not one OF them who will not also
admit that the only objection to this
exists with the creditor classes, and
particularly with the great bankers
Of the world. There is not one OF
them, either, who will not admit that
inasmuch as silver was not broken
down when all the mighty mines of
Spanish America upioaded their
treasure upon Europe, that now the
whole amount which the world pro.
duces, when we consider the d fer
tnaei in the volume of business now
and three hundred years ago, would
amount to nothing at all if the
nations would but accept bi-netallism
and put the two metals on an equal
basis under the law These things
all being true, the one fact more
apparent than any other is that the
bankers who deal in the bonds of the
world, financially, at this moment,
are holding the world by the throat,
and without mercy are aiming death
blows at every producing industry
In the world. There will be II revolu-
ton pretty soon II this wrong is not
riphted.
