NORFOLK GOING AHEAD
look at the Assessment of Real
Estate.
The Assessors Have Completed Their
Work and Norfolk Has Gained
Si,e3e, 1865 Over the Assess.
ment of 1890. a Great
Showing.

1he assessors of real estate, Messrs.
Z. L. Gwathmey. j. A. Wiuslow and
William Pannill, have completed the
Teassessment for the city, and report
total valuation for the SIX wards OF
F2i, S6a l55, an increase over 1880 of
81, 939,965. The assessors consider this
q remarkable showing.
1t vii! be remembered that 1890 was
q boom period that values we're greatly
inflated; land then anywhere on the
river front was thought to be almost as
valuable as gold dust, and as u
consequence tho assessments in many
snstances were considered high. These
mistakes were easily made IN tho boom
Ang days. When the valuation of that
fear footed up the handsome some of
Gl9, 925, 100, there were many persona

matter OF fact Norfolk real es
tate has been continually adyanc.
ing, and as said by the Roanoke
World a few days ago. ii is the ONLY
city in Virginia that will show an in
crease for this assessment. owing to
the depression IN the financial world.

The Finance Issue.

It will be a great deal better both for
che leading political parties and for the
United States of America if the people
who are divided on the financial issue
will refrain from imputing dishonest or
unfair motives to their opponents.
There has been evinced in some quar-
tiers an unfortunate tendency to regard
this question as in some way matter
of ethics. The leaders on one side OF
the issue have assumed that those on
the other side are basely designing to
destroy national prosperity in order to
favor their own selfish interests.
This attitude, The Record believes, is
as wrong as it is unpatriotic. The
silver issue is not question OF party
ethics at all, but of sound national
economics, and the sole object which
every loyal citizen must consider is the
securing of sound monetary basis.
While there may be, here and there,
partisan leaders who have their own
ends to serve in sWaying the nations
decision ore way or the other, it is
absurd to suppose that the great mass
of the voters are so wholly lacking in
honesty as to endeavor willfully to go
wrong on this matter. 1t is not to be
questioned that there are men on both
sides who sincerely believe that their
theory is right and that the other peo-
pie are wrong. However they may be
m;sled by lack of proper understanding
Q by plausible fallacies@of reasoning,
their attitude is assumed in sincerity
and honesty ofpurpose.
The fact that there are men of known
ability OH both sides Of the question
shows how confused and cloudy the is
sue is likely to appear when presented
TO the mass of people who of necessity
have no time to 90 into the subject of
finance, with its infinite ramifcations
into various branches of economics In
the conditions the prime. necessity is
that the question be regarded by all
leaders as one merely of sound econom-
les. Tt should be an effort to arrive at
the best money system for all con-
eerned, and no faction which makes
this effort sincerely and from conviction
should be open to question of its mo-

What Is Bimetallism

The most extreme free silverite
claims to be a bimetallisJ, anu so does
the most violent opponent Of the free
coinage of silver. Under these condi-
lions it is evident, considering the wide
difference between the advocate o.
free silver and the opponent OF free
coinage, that bimetallism has wide
difference of meaning to these two
classes.
To the free -silverite it means a
double Standard silver standard and
gold standard which, logically fol-
lowed up, means that the higher stand
ard will be forced to give way to the
lower standard. for a double standard
being unlike can not be used to meas
ure values of the same commodities
without retiring that part of our circu-
lation which might be the higher and
most valuable standard. Another de-
feet in this fallacy OF double standard
is the very clear fact, a fact no one will
care to gainsay, that if two standards
were alike, we would be upon the plat
form of a single standard, though both
silver and gold were circulated.
When the opponent of free silver
coinage speaks of bimetallism he elm
mates the double standard theory OF
the silverite, for he does not for a mo-
ment believe that we can have a free
coinage of silver at the proposed ratio
of 16 to l without driving our gold,
which is now our measure Of value, out
of circulation and forcing the country
to cheap silver basis, which would be
a single standard, causing revolution
in business affairs that would be most
disastrous to our prosperity, because 1T
would have the effect of doubling the
price of the necessaries of life and
would double interest, but it would not
double the price of any mans farm, or
his house, or his wages, or his salary
or his pension. The opponent of free
silver means by bimetallism the use OF
both silver and gold as money upon a
single standard, that of gold, as we
have it now, or freer use Of silver un-
der such restrictions as will protect the
country from dangerous silver stand
ard. That is to say, they are willing to
coin as much silver as can be circulated
at par with gold with the guarantee o.
redemption behind it. These people
are also willing to risk free coinage un-
der a proper international agreement
as to ratio in the free coinage of the
two metals into money.
These are as near as can be stated
the positions of the free silverite anC
the free coinage opponent, both O.
whom claim to favor bimetallism, and
and will furnish food for reflection by
those who are interested in this ques'
tiOn
