LAND is not so dirt cheap in America
now as it was when Lord Baltimore's
company bought thousands of acres of
fine ground for less than that number
of glass beads, including the site of the
city Of Christiana, 'for which was paid
one iron kettle of the bigness- of five
quarts or Whereabouts" Roger Will
Gams bought Rhode Island for go
fathoms of white beads, strung and it
is only about 255 years since the site of
New Haven, Conn, was bought for go
coats of English cloth, II spoons of
mixed metal, Il hoes, u hatchets, u
poringers, "a knives and some French
knives and spoons" Probably the only
business transaction on record that
beat these, and is not American, was
the purchase of Esau's birthright for a
mess Of pottage. And somebody has
said that IL Jacob had been an Ameri-
can he would have done better than he
did. Instead of lavishly paying Esau
''pottage down. he would have owed it
TO him..

DUE's weekly report of trade infers
that it is hard to tell whether business
has picked-up or dropped off a point.
Wall street seems to have got the worst
OF the deal in repeating the silver pur-
chase act. The west has so many re-
sources that it is hard to down. The
repeal bill has been a boomerang to
the east and every western man hopes
that it will keep 'booming" until it
has either knocked the wadding out of
the Wall street head or knocked some
brains in.

LAST fall, Mr.. Carlisle was urging
upon congress the repeal OF tha.-pur-
chasing clause of the Sherman ect,
which if honestly carried out would
have enabled him to add without cost
to the taxpayers, several millions of
dollars every month to the public re-
venues. Now that this supply of money
is cut off, he is insisting upon borrow
| ing S50,OO0,000 to meet the emergency
created by the measure which he urged
upon congress at it's late extraordinary
session. But the emergency, which
calls for this incre ase of the public
debt, will be continuous under Car
isles ruling. AS 70 ,pidly as the banks
can accumulate treasury notes, they
can draw the gold out of the treasury,
and thus create a demand for sale Of
more bonds to maintain the gold re-
serve. This is the system OF debt-creat-
ing to which both of the old party
machines are committed. To escape
the shackles of debt-slavery which this
system of financial legerdemain is de-
signed to impose upon the people, it is
absolutely necessary for them to cut
loose at once and forever from the
Democratic and Republican parties,
and take possession of the machinery
of government, state and national, and
establish debt-paying financial sys-
tenn under the operation of which all
forms of actual wealth will possess a
debt-paying power, equal to its use and
desirability. Instead of taxing our
sleeves to keep silver and paper cur
rency on a par with gold, bring all
property on a par with money. A fin
anciaI system, such as we have now,
which depreciates the market price of
products by increasing the purchasing
power of money, is a legalized system
of robbing the producers of wealth for
the enrichment of the privileged clas-
ses, which are permitted to control
the distribution of money.-Missouri

THE MONEY STANDARD.

1t requires no expert to see that the
worlds wealth will not turn out the
same when measured by gold alone as
when measured blythe bimetallic stand
ard of gold and silver together. AS
long, therefore, as the present condi-
tions continue the value of the money
standard will increase and prices will
go down. Under such conditions no
country can prosper and Industries
cannot thrive. The blow falls first on
agriculture and unorganizedin industries,
but as the agricultural class becomes
impoverished and are unable to buy,
this condition reacts upon other indus
tries and in the end all are leveled. It
IS next to impossible for land owner
who is in debt, at present prices, to
save his lands, and thus it is that far
mers are rapidly passing from land
owners to tenant farmers. With the
stagnation of business, profits decline
and rents fall, and thus reacts on real
estate in cities, and in many cities this
has become a matter of serious consid-
Grafton. The only classes that are be-
neited by the change in the money
standard are those whose wealth is in
moneyor in bonds and other securities
that share directly in the enchance-
ment of money. For the benefit of this
class the rest Of the world is spoliated.
