DoubIing the Wheat Crop.

A proposition to double the wheas
crop by measuring it in "bushels" one
half Of the present size would be
laughed at by every intelligent far
mer. No one would be deceived into
thinking that the quantity Of wheat
grown would be any larger though u
was called twice as many bushels.
But when it comes to measuring VAL
ues, instead of quantities, q great
many people are victims Of the curious
delusion that by adopting q standard
Of value worth only half of that now
used, this country would at once
double the value of all the products OF
labor. They are entirely mistaken.
Changing the measure would not IN
the slightest degree increase the real
value In use or exchange OF the goods
measured, and the pretense OF the sill
verites that free coinage would double
the value Of all property is merely .
fraud by which they hope to fool the
people into voting for ifty-cent dol
lars.

High Prices and Low Wages.

The most stupid swindle for which
IL was ever attempted to gain the
votes of the workingmen is the high
prices, dear goods scheme OF the IL to
i silverites. 1t passes belief that any
set Of political agitators should have
The impudence to ask the wage earn
ers Of this country to help adopt the
cheap silver standard of China, Mex
loo and the small South American
countries. On the admission OF its ad-
vocates the first effect of free coinage
would be to reduce wages fifty per
cent. by making food, clothes, rent,
and everything the workingman must
buy for himself and family, twice as
dear as they are now. The result
would be that all the luxuries and
many of the necessities, which the
wage Garner is now able to buy, would
be raised entirely out Of his reach.
The silverites say that wages would be
doubled under free coinage. But
would they? The workingmen know
that it is only by hari struggles, e1,
tending over long periods, that small
wage advances are secured. Are they
willing to risk the certain doubling OF
prices for possible increase IN
wages2

Prosperity Of Arkansas Farmers.

It surprised many people to find that
the Arkansas delegates to the Cleve-
land convention were against free coin
age. One reason for their attitude is
undoubtedly found in the fact that
Arkansas is now an unusually pros
porous State. Crops Of all kinds were
never more promising, and the farmers
are more independent than ever be-
fore. The Little Rock Gazette de.
clares that any farmer who has lived
at home" for several years past-that
is, has raised enough of other crops
than cotton to avoid the necessity OF
purchasing supplies-must acknowl-
edge that be is better off this year than
he ever was in the past. The farmers
in the northern and western parts Of
the State are reported to be, as rule,
out of debt and with money IN the
bank, while many OF them belong to
the "creditor class ,and hold mortgages
on city and town property. The re-
suit Of all this is that the Arkansas far,
mer is coming to be safe and souno

CURED OF FREE SILVER.

President Max Robinson, OF the
Georgia branch of the 7. p. A., is
showing his friends 52c. silver dol
lar and telling them how few days IN
Mexico is pretty apt to convert the
strongest free silverite into the most
ardent sound money man.
The SIC. silver dollar is Mexican
dollar with more intrinsic value than
our silver dollar; that is, there IS
more silver in it than there is in one OF
Uncle Sans silver dollars. Neverthe-
less it is worth just the bullion value,
or &c., and that is oil 1t brings IN
the country that coins it and 81 its
own minis when it is hot from the
dies. -
Mr.. Robinson got his silver dollar
al the Mexican mint. It was one OF a
number coined while the travelling
men visited the mint and each ofithem
paid &c. in United States currency
for the Mexican dollar. If the United
States adopts free coinage Mr.. Robin
son has made arrangements to have
shipped to him q carload OF Mexican
dollars at New Orleans, there to be
minted into United States coins at o
handsome profit, provided, like the
Mexican dollar, there is not too rapid
depreciation in their purchasing
power. -. -

we're large planks of errors in their
optics. They studied the situation

The present advocates Of free coin
age forget that at this game OF paying
debts by legislation there is room in
the game for two sides. The Harrods-
burg Ky.) Democrat offers this
warning:
"Three-fourths of the people who
favor free coinage without personal
investigation have q sneaking idea
that they can pay their debt easier
with debased currency than under
the present toilsome, slow going pro-
cess. But this is all dream born
of the luric imagination of your typi-
cal free silver advocate. The credi-
tor who holds mortgage on the
farmers land is not exactly an idiot
himself, and the moment it becomes
clear that free coinage at the l6 to ]
ratio will be legalized in this country
thousands of mortgages will be fore
closed by men who propose to have
their loans paid IN good money. The
free silver dupe may argue, with tears
in his eyes, that the price OF silver
will be Immediately jerked up to the
desired point in the markets OF the
world as soon as our mints are opened
to the metal. But the b ard-heartet
creditor doesn't belong to that class
OF reasoners, and he will turn the
former out, bag and baggage, unless h,
meets his overdue mortgage then anc
there with the money in which the
creditor has confidence. just befor'
the dawn of that happy silver day
when the silver lining of the cloud
will be coined into good. Government
dollars-Sheriffs will be perchet
around on the worm fences in tn
country waiting for mortgages to ma
ture, like blackbirds watching corr
crop"
