Leaving total silver in clrcu-

LeuFihB tOlul SILVER III ClrCu-
latl0n ....,,,,.,,.......... S99, $4,000
There are in the United States 20,-
100000 persons who work for wages.
They earn on an average 81 a day
each, requiring S40,0O0,0O0 daily to
pay their wages, The silver In circu-
latioD will pay but little more than
two days wages of these workers
therefore, at the eud of the week,
there would be required to pay these
people for six days work, S240,000000.
1t is plain that, II all the silver coin
outside the treasury were reserved
expressly to pay the work people, 1t
would only exc out two days wages,
aud the amount due for the other four
days would have to be paid in paper
or gold.
Since the greenbscks aud the treas
ury notes Of 1890 make up nearly the
whole Of the paper money issued by
the Government, aud since those notes
will draw gold Oh demand, ii follows
that tho workpeople would be paid al
the rate mentioned above four-sixths
of their wages in money the equal Of
gold, the same sort used for paying
the wealthy, while only two-sixths
would be paid in silver. But the fact
remains that all the silver is not re-
served for the payment of lsborers.
The toilers get the greater part OF
their wages in paper money, and,
therefore, the claim that silver is the
money Of the poor Is wholly false and
absurd. The simple fact is, all debts
of less than one dollar must be paid In
silver or nickel, and that IL all of it.
The rich man hands out his half-dol.
lars, bis quarters, bis dimes and his
nickcls Just the same as the wage
Garner, aud, therefore, the talk about
siyer being the money Of the working
man is the merest sentimental bosh.
The fact is that everybody, except the
beggar and the thief, slights silver
dollars; but everybody neods aud
wishes silver change. The resolt is
that nine.tenths OF the white dollars
are driven out of circulation and are
stored up in the vaults Of the treasury
SO far from being the poor mans
money, they are avoided by oil.
There should be no sentiment about
money. People want what will sup
ply their needs to the best advantage.
They want dollars that have the high
est purchasing power, regardless of
what material they are made, and to
force upon the workingman any but
