THE ROTHSCHILD RING.

The Bankers Credit Review OF Chicago,
for March, an able financial journal, con-
tains communication from J. Nj. Batch
elor, in which he discusses the relative
position of silver to commercial prosperity
and shows how the Rothschild Ring rob
and plunder nations at will because
of the purchased American Congress.
America can dictate to the world, but
she is now only slave to that, European
power that hates the name of republic.
Mr.. Bachelor in speaking of the efforts
of different nations to secure bmetalism
says:
Against this movement IN favor Of free
silver, is another that is all-powerful, but
exerted more or less in secret, and best
known under the name of the "Roths-
child ring" This ring, according to the
best obtainable Information, is intent
upon doing away with the use of silver
altogether as a money metal, cost what
it may. 1t is explained that the object
this ring has IN view is, 'by contracting
the money base, they can control all the
Governments of the world, so that when
| wars are declared all nations will have to
There are other reasons given why this
ring is intent upon doing away with silver,
to The effect that members Of the ring
being in position to control pretty
much all the gold in the world they seek
to enhance its value by depreciating the
value of all other forms of money, and
by that means reap rates of interest for
its use that would only he possible under
a monometalllstic policy.
Still another reason is the well-known
fact in England, that this ring makes
millions of dollars annually by dealing
| short in silver exchange; receiving silver
| at one valuation in the process OF selling
| time exchange. then systematically depre'
ciatiug the price of silver before the bills
| mature, which affords them, profit OF
| the decline.
This ring has It's emissaries or partners
in all the business centers Of the world
as well as beside the seats of all the prin
ciple Governments where the politics art
administered, and It's influence is so large
and widespread that to-day all the golC
basis Governments of the world are more
or less dominated thereby.
| The striking feature Of this situation
is the fact that all these Governments
put the market quotation OF silver bullion
right into the hands Of this ring, fol
them to do with it what they see fit
! The silver bullion sold in London from
which quotation is made for the people
of the world, is nothing more nor less
than Il figure quoted by this Rothschild
ring. 1t is manufactured or mock -auc-
tion quotation, as any one may see who
goes on the London exchange and notes
what takes place when silver bullion is
sold.
| This ring are the only bidders for this
silver. They being the only bidders, and
having but one purpose in view, put
whatever price on the silver they see 6t;
and the various Governments of the world
seem glad to have this ring put this price
on the metal, as it enables them to see
how helpless they make themselves by
allowing clique of manipulators to con-
! troll their Government affairs and the
business Of the world; and it also gives
opportunity to many newspaper manag-
ers, more or less associated with the men
toned ring, to explain to the public what
an unworthy metal silver is to have
around.
OF course the farmers and planters of
the United States have been great suffer-
ers by the decline in the value of wheat
and cotton, consequent to the published
London quotations of the value of silver
bullion; but the more striking particular
connected with this feature is, that to. day
the fall of cotton and wheat is all but
synonymous with the fall in the price of
silver; that IS, the movement of silver is
almost precisely and Immediately the
movement of cotton and wheat.
A short time ago, while there were ad-
vocates enough IN and out of Congress
explaining how the fall in the price in
silver meant a similar fall in the price of
the two mentioned staples, there was
no unanimous opinion on the subject,
and the statements of such result were
honestly questioned.
Now, however, all is changed; even the
cotton and produce exchanges keep their
quotations in immediate rapport with the
movement of silver, a movement as
already shown that is a manipulation by
a ring. Now note how this Rothschild
ring is able to control the produce mar
kets of the world.
among their own coterie the day or week
before that on such and such day, they
will publicly bid so much for silver bull
lion; meanwhile they notify their agents
and associates whether to buy or sell pro-
duce. Then, when all purchases and
sales have been completed, they finish
the transaction by announcing the price
Of silver for the appointed day, which to
them is every day, for with them this
manipulated business has no end.
Thus this ring annually makes fabu-
lous profits at the expense of the wheat.
cotton and cereal growers of these United |
States; and producers, struggle as they |
may, see no way of getting rid of the |
shackles that the Government put upon |
them by giving this ring such absolute
and monopolistic power over all forms
of business.
Nor are the farmers the sole sufferers;
every merchant, manufacturer
and banker, outside Of this ring, is like
wise sufferer. for it is not in the nature
Of business affairs that the country as
whole can be prosperous while the farm
ers, composing over half the population,
are steadily being impoverished.
