Working Farmers Versus Land Spectators.
The promise that the selling price of
land would be doubled by the adoption
Of free coinage is one Of the main argu-
ments on which the silverites rely to
capture the votes Of the farmers. With
ont stopping to consider whether higher
prices would help them, some farmers
have allowed themselves to be drawn
into the free silver movement through
their desire to see "boom" in farm
lands. But a little study will show them
that the imitation of farm values by
cheapening the currency would not be
of the slightest benefit to the working
farmer.
Suppose that the silver standard was
adopted and the price Of farm lands
doubled. This would enable farmer
who wished to sell his property to get
more money for it, but not more value.
If he wished to buy another farm or to
engage in any kind of business, he would
find that the price of his farm would
buy no more than it does now. The
great majority Of the American farmers
expect to retain their land and get a
living by working on it. The fact that
farm was nominally worth more would
not make it grow more grain, cotton or
vegetables. Its increased price would
lead to higher tax assessments, but as a
means Of getting livelihood its value
would be just the same as it is today.
The only men who would be benefit
ed by inflated land values due to cheap
money would be the small class of spec
ulators who do not farm, but hold land
out Of use for RISE The interests Of
this class are directly opposed to those
Of the real working farmers, who should
not allow themselves to be deluded into
voting for a scheme which will make
farms harder to get by the men who are
seeking homes.

bearings has led me, almost against my
will, to the conclusion that at the ratio
proposed, and without international
agreement, the free coinage Of silver by
the United States would be calamity
of no mean magnitude. In this position
I find myself in harmony with the best
thought of the Prohibition party, as
witness the rejection Of free coinage
plank at Cincinnati by the decisive vote
of 1886 for to 500 against. The follow
ing are among the conclusions which
have forced themselves upon me:
First.-The charge that the law Of
1878 was "crime" and the outcome OF
conspiracy" has never been proved.
There is no direct testimony, the cir
cumstantial evidence is utterly made
quate, and the absence Of motive is i'm
portant.
Second. The effort on the part Of
the silver men to pose as the especial
friends of the workingmen and to hold
up their opponents in the guise of "aris-
tocrats," "bondholders, robbers, :"
"gold barons," "Shylocks," etc., is a
most disgusting exhibition Of the dema'
gogue's art.
Third. Equally insincere and absurd
is the attempt to arouse prejudice against
an inert substance by the violent dec
lamation that "gold is traitor, ""gold
deserted the country when Sumter was
fred upon," gold never fought bat
tie for us, "gold fed in the time of
danger, =" "nobody saw any gold during
the war;" Substitute "silver" for
"gold" in the preceding quotations,
and they are equally true.
Fourth. measured by human
toll, which is the only true standard,
has steadily deprecated in purchasing
power for many years.
Fifth. Commodities, produced by
improved methods Of production, ought
to depreciate in value, and such depre-
citation is no evidence of an apprecia-
ton in the currency Of the country.

Secretary of the Navy Hilary A. Her.
bert delivered strong sound currency
speech at Montgomery, Ala, on Oct 4.
He said in part:
what our currency shall consist of
is question to be decided on business
principles. There is a sentimental OBJ
lection to gold INDUCED in by some
that it is the money Of the rich-but it
does not seem to me that this should
have any weight because, in my opinion,
the poor man is entitled to as good mon
ey as the rich. There is a sentimental
argument in favor of the silver dollar
because il is said to have been the dol
lar Of our fathers 1t does not seem to
me that this argument should have any
weight, because it is not founded on fact.
1.-THE fair presumption is that neither
your father nor mine nor any other
mans father who died prior to 1873
ever handled enough American silver
dollars to keep him out of the poor
house.
II know of no more effective way Of
crippling the south and its industries
than for our people to clamor for the
payment of debts already contracted
and hereafter to be contracted in depre-
ciated silver dollars.
Fortunately for this country the
effects Of the panic Of 1898 are rapidly
passing away. Money has begun to flow
again in its accustomed channels. Wheat
has risen in price, cotton has risen in
price, iron has risen in price, industries
are reopening everywhere, wages are in
creasing, and all this comes from the
fact that the capitalists of this country
who are shrewd, farseeing and who
watch with keen eye the doings of every
political convention have come to the
conclusion that the free silver sentiment
in the United States is not strong enough
and not powerful enough to force this
country to q silver basis.

free silver sentiment in the east, none

Laborers Are Beginning to Learn Some
Truths About Money.
The attorneys of the silver mining in
terest have counted largely on the labor
vote. Some months ago there was some
reason for this. But the agitation of the
subject has wrought change. Informa-
tion has been SO diffused that the stupid
falsehoods of such men as Harvey are no
longer current. The men who work for
wages are awakening to the fact that
they are the great creditor class of the
country. Not to mention the $2,-
900, 100000 which they live in the
banks-a sum far in excess of the ma
tional debt-they are obliged to work
on credit. Whether paid by the week,
month or quarter, they are equally cred
itors for the full amount of their wages.
They get no money until after they have
earned it.

OUTLINES HIS VIEWS.
THE FINANCIAL FAITH OF A PROM
NENT PRoHIBITloNlST.

Why He Opposes Free silver-Chsrge That
the Law Of 1873 Was q Crime Has Never
Been Proved-Past Experience With De-
based Currency.
In q letter published in The New
Era, Chairman Samuel Diskie Of the
Prohibition national committee outlines
his views on the currency question as
follows:
Without undertaking an argument in
behalf Of any proposition herein, I sub
NIT the following as in part declara-
ton Of my financial faith:
First.-Upon any satisfactory plan
for equalizing the intrinsic and NOM
inal value of our coins am bimetal-
list. An international agreement or an
increased ratio might sufficiently ap-
proximate the desired result. To de-
crease the amount Of gold in our gold
coins might accomplish the same end,
but would be palpable fraud.
Second.-As between gold mono
metallism and silver recommendation I
unhesitatingly declare for the former.
As to free coinage-several years ago
when this question began to attract
public attention 1 found myself in
ohned to sympathize with the advo-
Gates of free coinage Before commit
ting myself either way sought to make
acareful examination of the question,

problem as student and not as an ad-
socate. / began my examination Of the

to our recovery from an era OF depreci-
ated money and was not caused by the
"crime" of 1878.
Seventh. Free coinage, as proposed,
would mean silver monometallism, de-
preciated currency and the prompt dis
appearance of gold.
Eighth. TO defend the debasement
Of our currency on tho ground that
cheap money will benefit the debtor
class, enabling them to discharge their
obligations more easily, is to advocate
rank dishonesty.
Ninth.-A reasonable prospect Of the
enactment Of such legislation as is ad.
vocated by the silver men would pre-
cipitate an era of forced liquidation
certain to yield calamitous results.
Tenth. experience with de-
based currency abundantly proves that
under such regime commodities
promptly advance in price, while the
advance in wages is always less prompt
and in the degree Of advance less per-
fectly compensates for the decreased
purchasing power Of the circulating
medium. To add 80 per cent to the
workingman wages and 100 per cent
to his expenses will be sorry measure
Of relief. SAMUEL DICKIR.
Albion, Mich, July 81.
Facing Both Ways.
When the Populist press is clamoring
for free silver, it claims that low priced
products are an injury to everybody but
the owners of gold, and that the 10 to
swindle would help the people by dou-
bling the price Of everything they buy.
But when the same papers come to de-
nounce trusts and monopolies, they do
SO on the ground that those combina-
tions of capital restrict trade and put
up prices. Thus the Coal trust has been
generally condemned by the Populists
because it raised the price Of coal 90
cents per ton. But free silver would
make ton of coal cost just double
what it is now. If higher prices in the
interest of trusts is such a bad thing,
why would they not be equally bad y
the interests of the silver barons?
