THEN AND VOW.

that the financial legislation of 1871:
has caused the price of farm pro
diets to decline and TINS has pr,
dnced hard times, that flush condi
tons will accompany the. free coin
age Of silver. These conditions arc
not justified by the history of the
past.
| The free coinage of silver existed
IN this country in 1845, and that
year, instead of the prices of farm
products being high they were even
lower than they are now. We have
in our possession a mercantile book

town in the good old days of Stree
silver" when the "money of the con-
stitution," "the money of the peo-
pie" had equal recognition at the
minis with gold. In this old dusty
history We notice that cotton sold
in this market at about At cents per
pound. On one page of the book
two bales of cotton, and heavy
bales were made in those days and
the staple was usually gathered in a |
nice condition, is recorded as SELL |
ing at the low price of s43.05.
That same year all the articles
usually kept in the stores were ex.
traordinarily high as compared with
the prices prevailing now. People
complaining now of tight times
don't really know what tight times
are. With the price of cotton even
lower than 1t was last year the
prices of goods were superlatively
high. From this same old record
We quote number of things, sold
