THE Kansas Republican Silver league
in its address just Issued seems to have
overdone the matter just little. After
declaring its conviction that the remon-
etization of silver will restore the parity
of value between gold and silver on Is
to ratio, it then asks for a protective
duty on foreign silver, that will equal the
difference in value of the two metals If
reconciliation will restore the parity
what is the need of duty; if it will not
then the whole free silver argument
falls to the ground If silver bullion be-
comes worth 1929 an ounce at our minis,
is it reasonable to suppose that anybody
in the world will accept a less price for
it after deducting the cost of transporta-
ton and exchange. What induce
ment would foreigners have to bring
their silver to our minis except to use it
in buying our products. These products
we will not be forced to SELL We sell
what we choose, and make our own
prices. They will be seeking our goods
instead of our seeking their money as
we are now doing
