NATURAL LAW STILL RULES.

FOR you must pear IN NINA the steps
by which a system of coinage was
reached. AS long as money systems en-
ploy commodity substances to make
money Of, so long will the original under
lying principles of barter control every
exchange the face of the earth. Every
trade then was perfectly mutual. Each
party both bought and sold. He bought
the others article and he sold his own.
The sandals bought the wheat and the
wheat bought the sandals. Later, the
weighed-out gold and silver bought the
commodity exchanged for it and was itself
just as certainly bought by the commod-
ity. Similarly, at the present. time any
man who exchanges anything for money
buys the money just as truly as he sells
his commodity But we are so accus-
toned to the idea of buying things with
money that it requires an effort to realize
that we also buy money with things. And
money sometimes comes high. 1t is high
when we have to pay more than usual
for it. 1t is high when prices are low, be-
cause the lower prices are the more
things it takes at the low prices to buy
the money. When things command good
prices money is cheap. When things bring
low prices money is dear. That is the
trouble with the world today. It takes
too many things to buy money. Money
is too hard to get. 1t costs too much.
THE "HONEST" DOLLAR.
Some people cannot see how dollar
can ever be anything but a dollar"
Others again know perfectly we'll the
potencies of evil wrapped up in the almost
undetectable changes in it's value, and
they invoke all the specious articles that
ingenuity can summon up to ridicule and
discourage inquiry. These last loudly de-
clare themselves in favor of an "hOnest"
dollar while they defend a dollar which,
as we shall shortly see, is constantly
growing at the expense of the industry
of the country. One of their pet rhetori-
cal announcements is for "a dollar worth
one hundred cents This is a very safe
and modest demand, for as cent is the
hundredth part of a dollar, it is difficult
to see how dollar could be worth less
than a hundred times a one hundredth
part of itself. A dollar cannot help being
worth one hundred cents any more than
a foot can avoid being twelve inches
long. But what a dollar may be worth at
any given time in the average of CON-
modities, is a very different matter. We
have seen that it may be worth very
much more at one time than at another.

of gold and silver were there to
change for them, it is clear that each
commodity would on the average ex-
change for only half as much gold or sill
yer as before. 1t is equally clear also
that if the stock of precious metals avail
able for exchanges were diminished by
taking away the whole supply of one of
them, the effect would be the same as if
the quantity taken away were proper
tlonately from each. The metal remain
ing having now to do all the work former
ly required of both, would greatly rise in
value owing to this increased relative de-
mand for, and decreased relative supply
Of, money metal.
STAMPING THE COINS.
By and by the custom originated of
stamping pieces of these metals with an
impression showing authoritatively the
quality and purity of the metal in them.
Thereafter it would be unnecessary to
carry scales and acids about to test the
amount and quality of the gold or silver
offered in trade, but the coins passed as
containing the weight and ineness of
metal indicated by the stamp This great
convenience, however, did not repeal the
important law of value we have been con-
stdering. There was magic in the
stamp to free the metal from the physical
conditions inseparable from it's physical
constitution. The stamp merely said,
there are so many grains of fine gold,''
or there are so many pennyWeights of
fine silver The value Of these same
grains or pennyWeights of gold or silver
depended on their supply relatively to the
demand just as much after they had been
hammered into regular shape and stamped
as when, in their native shape, they were
weighed in the balance at each exchange
they effected.
The same thing is true today. By
section IA of the act Of congress of
Feb H. 1878, which dropped the standard
silver dollar from our coinage, the unit
of value was declared to be the gold
one dollar piece Eat the standard weight
of twenty-five and eight-tenths grains,'
which means 232197 grains of fine gold
with the complement of alloy. The gov
eminent has named this amount of gold
a dollar" but could not decree how much
it should buy or, what is identically the
same thing, how much of general COM
nodities should buy the dollar. WHAT
1T TAKES TO BUY A DOLLAR
rs WHAT THE DOLLAR is
WORTH; that is the value of it. And that

1856 of a womsn's time was devoted to
