an average of $50 to each inhabitant:
in 1890 it was So, 100000, coo, or about
$1,000 to each iDhabitant; and at
both dates it was greater than the
wealth of any other nation. He goes
on to show that per cent Of the total
wealth of the country is owned by
millionaires; y per cent by people

knui<auna Mill Owners File Claims
for Damages.

Kaukauna, Wis, May ia number
of mills at this point will file claims
against the government for damages
arising from shutting off the water
power. They claim that owing to the
poor condition of the dam at Kau-
kauna about 30 per cent of the flow of
the river leaks through the lower part
of the dam instead of running over
the crest. In consequence the river
does not rise to the crest only during
stages of high water, and nearly a
third Of the water that could be used
for power consequently goes to waste.

A CURRENCY DEBATE
LEADERS OF OPPOSING Views
MEET ON THE SAME PLATFORM.
j Lawrence LauGhlin, Professor OF
Political Economy In the chicago

the Author of Coin.

Chicago. May ia great financial
debate occurred last night between j.
Lawrence Laughlin, professor OF po-
litical economy in the Chicago uni
versity, and William NJ. Harvey, au-
thor of Coins Financial School,
The question was, in effect, That the
United States should open its minis to
the free coinage of silver at the ratio
of Is to / without regard to the action
of any other nation" Mr.. Harvey
spoke for an hour and a half in the
affirmative, Mr.. Laughlin followed for
an hour and half and Mr.. Harvey
closed with a half-hOur rejoinder.
Mr.. Harvey, in opening for the ar
firmatiye. said: The first reason
why | am in favor of independent ac-
ton by this country is that we should
not be subjected to the influences or
the governments of Europe. When
our forefathers declared their political
independence from Europe it was to
free themselves from the class legisla-
ton of those governments. justly
termed plutocracieS. Our friends, the
monometalliSts, mostly say, We admit
bimetallism,' but claim that we must
have the same money as other pow
ers. The biggest business we ever
carried on with the balance of the
world was when they had gold and
silver as money and we had neither.
We do not settle our balances with
Europe in coin except on its CONNER
cial value and weight Our coinage
has nothing to do with ii. Primarily
balances of trade are settled with
trade. The merchants can settle their
balances in gold for so much a penny
weight, as measured in the money OF
their country or our country, or in so
much silver or in so much copper or
in so much Of any other merchandise
that may be agreed upon. There is no
such thing as an international money.
The mintS are open to the free coinage
of gold. and this was true Of silver
also until 1878. Gold has an unlimited
demand, but silver has q limited de-
mand. Silver is now a commodity to
be measured in gold. 1t is an object
to be gOred by bulls and kicked by
bears. II has been deprived of that
unlimited demand it enjoyed prior to
1873 We would restore il to that .un-
limited demand. Restoring il TO the
unlimited demand would cause the
value of silver to rise as compared
with gold. This is what we want
Silver is the peoples money. 1t was
80 regarded by our forefathers. Gold
was and is the money Of the rich. We
would make both legal tender in the
payment Of all debts, and the elastici-
ty of our currency would be main
tanned.
He said that Rothschilds were our
financial managers. We are in the
hands of the pawnbrokers of Europe
This is what gold standard means. a
