should DO plain to everybody.
The trading nations Of tho world

we are doing, in a limited way; but cor.
tainly no country standing by itsoll can

gold, unlimited silver coinage. The

fresh impulse from our repeal OF the

by the conviction that We do not intend

NJ FRED. FERRY POWERS.

Bi.Metnliism IN Iiistory-Continue,l.
Has any other country had difficulty
in keeping gold and silver in circulation
at the same time?
Yes; the English government OF
India readjusted tho weights OF gold
and silver coins tour times between 1863
and 1875 in its efforts to keep both in
circulation. but did dot succeed, and
finally gave it up and made silver the
exclusive lcga! tender in 1885.
What! Did Englishmeu demone,ize
gold?
Thcy did, and nearly thirty years
aitcrward the imperial government re-
fused to sanction the proposal OF the
Indian government 10 make gold legal
tender.
But bi-mc.allism was a great success
in France?
1t did not secure tho concurrent cir
culation OF gold and silver. which ia the
main object OF bi.mctallism. according
to most OF its advocates. From carly in
this century till 1880 gold circu la,od lit

were in 1856. TO keep them In circula-
ton.
VIVA. authorities substantiate this?
Michael Chevalier Robert Gitfen and
Clarmont Daniel.
What statistics corroborato them?
From 1915 to 1921 France exported,
not. Sl4,OO0,0Q0 OF silver; from 1921 to
1852 she imported S6lj,O00,OOO; then
gold came in, and in tho next twelve
years she exported s332, 600. 900 OF silver;
tho Latin Union was formed in 1865,
and tho following six years the silver
ne, imports amounted to Slll,00O. 900;
in 1872 they wcro $l9,000,0O0; in 1873
they roso 10 S35, 100000, and in 1874 TO
S69,9OO,090; then tho coinage OF silver
was restricted. and the import fell 10
less than S223, 100000 in 1875; then the
FREQ coinage Of silver was wholly
stopped, and tho net import oil silver
foil two years latnrto S1,U00,000.
VIVA, event corroboruies them2
In addition to tho alteration OF the
minorcoinNgc, tho establishment OF tho
Latin Union.
Why was the Latin Union formed?
Because by separate action tho several
nations could not keep gold aud silver
in concnrrcut circulation.
But il individual nations could not do

power OF Hcvcral nations acting together
to accomplish it2
1t proved that they could not do it.
Nine years alter tho union was formed

free coinage IN the l.nan Union was
suspended.
VIA not tho fall Of silver duo to tho
action OF Germany in establishing tho
gold standard?
It maitCa no difference what tho cause
waa; tho Latin Monetary Union was nm
able to kcup slvcr and gold together.
