senator Camdem,s Speech.

The full text of Senator Camden's speech
in favor of the repeal of the silver purchase
law will be found on another page Mr..
Camden goes to the root of the currency
question and shows clearly and conclusively
that debased currency is the direct enemy
of labor in these days when the great vol
ume of business is done through bills of
exchange, checks, drafts, ETC.
The wage worker is paid in currency
He pays for what he buys in currency. The
employer, the manufacturer, the capitalist,
the large operator, does not conduct his
business on that line, because it would be
impossible. The basis of the countrys cur
rency is behind the mau with the check
book, but the man whose transactions are
done with cash and who pays in currency
has no basis except the solid value Of the
currency itself.
In other words the man of thousands or
millions is safe because his money is gold,
the standard of the country's and the worlds
currency. The workingman, however, who
pays up in hard dollars. has no fixed stand
ard by which to gauge his money. True,
his silver dollar. though it is worth but halt
its full face value. will purchase one hun
dred cents worth in the Uni.ed States, but
the men in the money centers, who hold the
money and deal in money, have two dollars
for every one in the workingman's pocket.
Senator Camden puts the case plainly and
succinctly. The first thing to do toward
placing the country's currency on a sound
and level basis is to repeal the law that is
responsible for the present condition-the
Sherman act-though the debasement of
the silver dollar dates back to that other
Sherman act of 1873, when silver was de-
monetized as a money metal Wheeling
Register.
