The Work of the Gold Standard.

ne WORK OF the told standard.
The deadly blight of the gold stand
ard has not been long in making itself
felt. From Main to California, from
the st. Lawrence to the Ohio, dozen
demonstrative movements are in prog
ress. Commerce is stagnant and the
leading. industries are shut down or
half paralyzed.
The shylock goldbugs and the states
men under their control are chatter
ing and Cabling about the distribu-
ton of troops, and she better organi-
cation OF the militia and the police.
If the goll standard in six months
has more than doubled pauperism and
crime, driven the starving poor to sui
eide, filled the land with armies of
tramps, wiped out $4,000, 100000 of
property values, turned the farmers
into poems, and arrayed the people
against the law, what will be the re-
suit six months or year later?
Ii any of our goldbug statesmen
have even superficial acquaintance
with history, and if they know any
thing of human nature, we commend
this review of the situation to their
serious consideration.
What is going to be done about it?
We confess that we do not know. The
jargon of the goldbugs is about as
rational as the utterances of Bedlam,
and about as ineligible as the clamor
of Babel.
Garry out the democratic platform!

More Money Needed.

A writer in the Chicago Times
sums up thirty years of our financial
history in the following:
The amount of money in circula-
ton at the close of the war in 1865
was $1,000, 100000, or $50 for every
man, woman and child. Since then
our population has increased 10000, 900
OF people, and we have in actual cir
cuiation toda among the people only
$500, 000. 900, or 81 zoe, 900, 900 less than
in 1866. This criminal contraction of
money with continual increase of
people is the cause of falling prices.
In 1865 there was $50 per capita in
circulation, and everything was hope
and joy. There was no idleness, no
despair. Prices for everything were
good. The poorest laborer could
promise his provision merchant SO
on Saturday night and keep his
promise. There was five times as
much money i'm circulation then as
now, and only little more than
half the population. The greater
portion of the money was treasury
notes, which General Grant said at
the time was the ''best currency that
our country had ever possessed" and
That there were no more in circula-
ton than was needed for the dullest
slason of the year, Peace and
plenty had come and the world of
trade and commerce was booming,
and new hope drove away the scars
Of VAR and the tears of sorrow. The
cause, therefore, of present deplorable
conditions is want of money. There
is one certain and prompt remedy
and that is an increase of currency.
This will cause industry 10 prosper
ard prices to go up, with immediate
demands FIR labor. Trade will be
active, civilization will advance, and
the whole country will be prosperous
and happy.
Whatever quibbling there may be
over figures, these statements in the
main are correct. A larger volume of
sound currency will give US better
prices, and it has been demonstrated
that we can make treasury notes, sill
yer and state bank notes safely and
satisfactorily serve the people as
circulating medium, either with or
without.

stop That Lie.

SNlae of the railroad ring organs
e2sserting that railroad commits
s9sn IS not practical in this state be-
.l.x8se the supreme court nullified the
last commission. II did nothing of the
sfad. II ma only asserted the right
.aGthe state to establish commission
sn act efficiently, but, when care
sssEy read, it will be seen that the
decision further asserted the power of
lfi3 court to pass upon the questions
,-ssTating to rates as well as to discrim-
nations.
This decision has been willfully
srssTegresented by the railroad ring
SCR tiseir own sinister purpose. The
sseslsacola and Atlantic railroad had
cFfed pleas in the case asserting that
me rates fixed by the commission
sMere not sufficient for them to earn
s.aesr running expenses and the state
sa<orneys had demurred to these
Ji1as.
Now. In law, demurrer to plea
ADMITS the truth of the plea, and in
exai effect the state admitted by its
sk<xnurrer that the rates fixed by the
sssuanlission We're not enough to pay
1iBe running expenses of the road.
All the supreme court did was to over
nile the demurrer, at the same time
ssskting forth that the state had a
right to join issue on the plea aud to
4sSz0w that the rates were sufficiently
Align 70 enable the road to meet its
expenses.
The supreme court even went fur
SEker. 1t pointed out the power Of the
.Seste to require the railroad compa-
ssses 10 show every dollar of their re-
..eipts aud legitimate expenses. and
Uo striI1e out all expenditures not
properly belonging to the running
1pesations Of the road. Before the
,sanafter could be finally adjusted the
zn1lrOad commission was abolished
nzs3 hence the case was never tried to
a Gnai ISSUE 1t Is therefore utter
zssEty to assert that the supreme court
1emdered any decision which destroy
zsiI tie usefulness of the commission or
sflich even intimated that the COM
s1ssasion could not be put into practi-
~sSzz effect in this state.

Are We to Have Tive- Cent ootton2

are we 10 nave rive ent C0btonI
The Charleston News and Courier
with ponderous solemnity asks the
question: Are we to have five-cent
cotton ~
Are we to have the gold standard !?
When the question is answered it will
be easy to give our esteemed con4em-
porary the information it seeks.
The Charleston paper is under the
impression that Congress han Hatch's
anii-option bill will lower the price of
cotton If it becomes a law, and makes
the point that speculative markets
offer the only hope of supporting the
price of cotton until the return of bet
ter,imes.
This is fanciful theory. Are we
to have the gold standard continued?
This question goes to the very mar
row Of The subject. SINCE the gold
standard was forced upon us the far
mers of the country have lost over
$500, 100000 through the shrinkage in
the value OF their crops, and the cot
ton planters alone have lost So, 000,
900.
From the official statistics recently
published in our columns, it is clearly
established that as silver declines our
agricultural staples decline and there
is general shrinkage of values
Hatch's anti-option bill has no more
70 do with the question than the
flowers that bloom in the spring.
Most of the financial calamities that
have befallen our producers during
recent years may be directly traced to
the blighting influence of the goldbug
policy of contraction.
When thing is as plain as pike
staff why seek to hide it? You can
fool some of the people all the time,
but you cannot fool all the people all
the time.
