paper money and converting II into
interest bearing bonds. To do this
would, OF course. leave only two dollars
in circulation where there are now
three. The purchasing power Of that
which remains would be largely
increased and prices would fan, buf
those who clamor for the ''beet money
see nothing wrong In this. In their
opinion, the more that money viii buy.
the better ii is. The New York Post
and other eastern sound money
organs are Eealous advocates of this
policy, which further includes the sale
Of the silver bullion In the treasury for
gold, the payment OF al debts in that
metal and the use Of ~ little silver ~
possible.
The international bimetallists believe
the demonefixa&ion Of silver In 1873 waa
. great wrong and admits the necessity
for the restoration Of the white metal 20
free coinage, but are not In favor Of
correcting the wrong without the con-
sent Of other nations. 1t Is nothing to
them that the United States proceeded
to demonetiEe silver without the consent
Of other nations, and they haven { con-
fidence enough in this country 10 believe
that its leadership and example would
Be worth something in the restoration
Of silver TO its old time position. They
are practical gold monometallists
lacking only the courage to 90 declare.
International bimetallism is . myth, q

money il that ii shall be . correct and
unchanging standard Of value. extend
ing over long periods Of time. The gold
standard is not such . standard, because
gold is constantly approaching in value.
That is mot sound money which requires
more Of the products Of labor to dis
charge . debt than the debt was worth
when contracted. 1t is because the
gold standard does this that it IL dis
honest standard. II is yardstick thai
