" COIN" says that the price of wheat
was higher in 1872 than in 1898, and
the cause Of this decline was the de-
monetizing of the silver dollar. If
that's the case the " crime of 1873"
has anything to do with the price of
our cereals then Of course it is owing
to that crime Of 1873" that the price
of corn in 1898 was a great deal higher
than it was in 1872! What bosh it is
to pick out one single article the price
of which is subject to natural causes
and the laws of supply and demand,
and upon that seek to prove false
but sophistical assertion. If the "crime
of 1878" caused a fall in the price Of
wheat it also caused fall in the price
of corn. But it didn't. therefore the
assertion of Coin" is false. If it is
not false, what is it?
