The gold and silver in the world
available for coinage is as follows:
Gold, 1927, O1s,s69
Silver, $500, 81 ,34G
s7,547,59O,2I5
Total,


The whole amount of the primary
money in the world. if brought to the
United States, would give each of its
citizens little more than SIG apiece.
This would not be great amount,
when we take into consideration that
the public debt of France amounts to
800 per capita. If all the silver of
the world were brought to Ironton, it
could be stored in the courthouse and
the Presbyterian church. This in
cludes silver in India, China, Japan,
and the isles of the sea, and this would
bring our money of final account up to
something like seventy dollars per
capita. So that all this talk about the
vast amount of silver that would be
dumped upon US, in the event of Free
Coinage, is rot. All the gold in the
world cast into cubes could be piled in
the cellar of Whitworth Sons store.
It will be seen that the gold trust have
it in their power, as matters now are.
to corner the money of final account,
which is gold, and rob the people at
will.

To HEAR the 'ssound curren ~" ad-

the whole civilized world was on a
gold basis, but Mr.. j. H. Norman, a
leading London expert, has compiled
Information regarding the present
monetary and currency system of eigh-
ty-one countries of the world, embrac-
ing 1,164, 81 900 people. His report
shows that there are thirty-five coun-
tries with population of 250, 100000
on gold basis, while forty-six coun-
tries, with population of GIG. 250. 900
use silver. In other words, one-fourth
of the population of the globe use gold
as the standard of values, while three
fourths get along very nicely with sill
ver-and yet we are told that the Uni
ted States cannot adopt silver as a
money because it will not be accepted
by foreign countries.-ScoH County

That Easter Entertainment.

Ed. Register-Please allow me
through your columns to correct a
harmful and misleading statement in
the aArcadia News" of last weeks
REGISTER. regarding an Easter Enter
tainment. In the first place, the an
nouncement in your paper some weeks
ago was wholly without authority. and
without my knowledge. Furthermore.
/ had stated on the preceding Sund ay
that our Quarterly Meeting would en-
brace Easter Sunday. The announce
ment was duly made, and published in
the REGISTER, and it is not reasonable
that many could have been disappoint-
ed, and there was no evidence of such.
All who know anything about the
government of Episcopal churches,
know that the pastors are given full
authority Cover the churches, in the
absence of the Bishops. And in our
church the rresiding Elder has full
authority when present in any charge
in his district. So on that day the p.
E. was the supreme authority. aud ev-
erything moved along as he directed.
smoothly and effectively. No one
ever came to me to consult about hav-
ing such entertainments. Bnt / did go
and try to reconcile offending parties.
and in all have followed the letter OF
the law, and have done SO in spirit
of love and kindness. My Presiding
Elder fully endorsed my course. All
the most faithful of the church are in
greater peace and unity, and greater
loyalty prevails throughout. The. fu-
ture Is brighter, and now we hope and
pray for spiritual unity throughout the
entire membership Of the church, and
churches Of all this Valley.
Very Respectfully,
j. M. ENGLAND,
Pastor Fort HUI n. e. Church.

Co1N's FINANTIAL SCHOOL, issued by
the Coin Publishing Company of Chica-
go, Illinois, is one of the clearest and
most readable books ever published
upon the subject of finance. 1t is lit
sic more than a striking statement of
facts. 1t treats the science of finance
az the teacher treats the science of
arithmetic. 1t has utterly paralyzed
the advocates of the Gold Standard.
They have been bowling for a month
for some one to answer it. No one has
yet made the attempt We suggest
the editor of the Republic be appealed
to: he has larger assortment OF words
and smaller stock of ideas than any
man on the continent. This is the
kind of man to answe.. it, for, being a
book of facts. they must be obscured
by flood of words. That is the only
answer possible.
