On February p, 1869, in the
United States senate, John Sherman
said:
II say that equity and justice are
amply satisfied if we redeem these
bonds at the end of the five years in
the same kind of money OF the same
intrinsic value it bore at the time
thew we're issued. Gentlemen may
reason about this matter over and
over again, and they cannot come to
any other conclusion. Senators are
sometimes in the habit, in order to
defeat the argument of an antagonist,
of saying that this is reputation.
Why, sir, every citizen of the United
States has conformed his business
to the legal tender clause. lie has
collected and paid his debts accord
ingly."
These were his sentiments before
he fell under the malign influence OF
Ernest Seyd and the Wall street
cormorants. He reiterated this in
various forms. Opposition to the bill
then under discussion was not re-
pudiation or dishonest legislation;
but, as soon as his soul became
scared with the thirst for gold, he
repudiated his earliest convictions
and threw his influence and votes
with those who were demanding
Legislation in the exclusive interest
of capital Set his earlier declara-
ton on financial legislation over
against his utterances OF the last
few months, and there cannot be
presented a more hideous picture.
The contrast between a man honest
in his earlier political life and tool
of the money power in later years
cannot be presented in a stronger
light. John Sherman of 1859 paint
ed John Sherman of 1898, and the
coloring is not over-drawn.

EVERY man who pays the least at
tention to the effect of congressional
legislation on the price of labor and
and the products of the farm cannot
but see that just in the ratio that
gold is given pre-emence in COM
mercial transactions does the value
of that labor and those products
lessen. Northern wheat at 45 cents
per busheI and Southern cotton at
6 cents per pound, and all other
products at corresponding prices,
will as surely increase the number
of bankrupts and millionaires as
comes the rising and setting OF the
sun. Like causes with like condi-
tions will assurdly bring like
results. Glass Legislation has made
thousands of millionaires and tens OF
thousands of paupers, and will con-
tinue to do so.

No.
Are we afraid of her now, when
we gave her such lambasting
over hundred years ago?
No.
Why, then, should we care if she
does laugh?
Because she is an older nation and
we want to respect her as child
respects parent.
Why didn't we do as she wanted
us to, one hundred and sixteen years
ago instead of walloping the old
gal?
Because we wanted freedom and
equal rights and she wouldn't have
it.
Well, isn't it equal rights we want
now?
Yes.
Then why not make wheat and
potatoes, copper and silver, and all
commodities the standard OF values
and measure gold with all these
things, as we'll as all these other
commodities with gold!
Because you can't measure any
commodity with itself.
Then how do you measure gold!
Oh, the law fixes the value of the
standard of measures.
Then why not make wheat the
standard and corn, copper, and brass
and silver?
Because they are inconvenient and
can't be used.
Why not issue certificates same as
they did on silver?
Because that would give every
body all the money they want, and
then it wouldn't be worth anything.
Wouldn't it be as good as
mortgage, when the property is back
of it?
Yes. of course--but-the country
would be flooded and money would
be so plenty that nobody would be
able to get anything for the use of it.
Would that do any harm?
Why yes! the banks would have
to suspend, and they'd-have tr-br-
r-rr.
And they would have to work or
starve, just as others do, would they
not?
no answer.
Then wouldn't we have good
times?
not murmur.
Then how would "Jonny Bull"

save the pennies and that the dollars
would take care of themselves and
wound up his peroration by telling
him that some day he would be
worth lots of money. Whereupon

What is money!
Money is gold.

Gold is a commodity.

by labor and is concrete substance.

Is copper?

Is silver?

No!

Is potatoes?
No!
Is gold?
No-yes, yes, of course it is!
Why?
Because.
Because why?
Because it is gold.
If wheat is commodity and gold
is a commodity, why isn't wheat
money just the same as gold!
Because.
Because why?
Because it is wheat. We cannot
determine values by wheat because
it luctuates in price.
What is price!
That depends.
Upon whatY
The gold which is the standard OF
values.
Why not make other commodities
the standard of value, too!
Because you cant do it.
Why?
Because England, Germany and
aud the whole Latis union, would
laugh at such folly.
