A prominent professor i'll one of the
big universities of New England writes
the Chamber of Commerce regarding the
silver question as follows:
"The present free coinage craze is as
old as the days Of Jack Cade, when his
followers hoped to bring ON the millen-
mum by making the pint measure hold
two pints, and the twopemy loaf sell
for penny, His descendants today
want 90 cents worth Of silver to pass for
a dollar. The sophistry is all the more
apparent when it is remembered that free
silver does not mean m unlimited de-
mand for that metal, but only an unlim-
tied supply
"MeXico has free coinage of silver.
"MoXico is on a silver basis.
"The wages in Mexico in mining and
agriculture vary from 10 to 80 cents a
day i'll Mexican money, which is from
to 10 cents i'll United States money.
1.-The average for farm labor day in
Mexico Is 20 cents in Mexican money or
10 cents i'll United States money.
eff free silver can raise prices, why
does it not raise the prices of wages in
Mexico?"

machines il the United States mints and
employ several thousand of their faith
full, mind cure followers at feeding these
machines, keeping them in good work
ing condition and in carting the treas
ures away. Bryan estimates that in one
year al of the available silver in the
world could be passed through these ma
chimes This will double the value of all
silver, and therefore of all wealth, for
silver is the only true measure Of wealth.
We will therefore have twice as much
food and clothing as now, and Will en-
joy such prosperity that some of those
now suffering from lack of food may be
expected to become insane with joy.
As soon as we get accustomed to 16 to
| prosperity so that we can stand q
greater amount, Bryan will introduce
his s to machines, and in another year
wealth will again be doubled. The daz-
cling prosperity that VIII follow will be
likely to overcome many who, only two
or three years before, had been over
worked and underfed Many cases of
prosperity sunstroke are expected to fol-
low the use of Bryan's 4 to / and to |
machines, which will be employed as
soon after the use of the to | machine
as public safety will permit The mil
lennium will certainly dawn when the
! to machine begins to get in it's work.
Those who have not succumbed to over
doses of prosperity can then have every
thing that human desire could ask for,
including all Of the necessaries and lux
uries of life, palaces at low rents, steam
yachts plenty of leisure, with little or
no work-in fact, an abundance of ev-
erything that can be produced on this
earth, with plenty of time for enjoyment
of same.
All of this is as it exists in the intox-
icated minds of the 16 to 1 silverites.
In actual practice it will be fASld that
the slot machine will work the reverse
of what its friends expect, and that half
dollars will come out instead of the
whole dollars dropped in. All who are
now putting sound money in savings
banks, life, fire or accident insurance
policies, building and loan, and all
similar associations, will, under lG to
free coinage, get out only unsound mon
ey-that is, dollars worth only about so
cents. Fiat money is and always has
been as poor substitute for sound mon.
ey as was alchemy for chemistry.

MUTINY IN THE sILVeRlTe ARMY.
The Several Factions Are Each Pulling In
Different Directions.


1t is amusing to watch the struggles
Of the silverites with their friends and
allies, the Populists and other fiat
money advocates. As the men who be-
lieve in making dollar half silver and
half fiat find their principal support
among believers in dollars wholly fiat
they try to avoid offending the latter by
opposing unlimited greenbacks and sim
liar cheap money schemes. But an at
tempt to convert the Populist party to
platform Of the single plank Of free
coinage at 10 to has split that party i'll
two wings, which are now getting readJ
to fight each other. The men who want
government loans on land ami farm
products will not be satisfied with
currency scheme which will only benefit
the silver NINE owners While the sill
verites fear to indorsc the wild money
notions Of the Populists lest they drive
away supporters who are not ready to
swallow all the third party's nostrums,
the Coxeyites are poiing fun at them as
men who have not the courage to follow
their cheap dollar arguments to their
logical end-Populism.
The result will be that the silverites
will have to decide between such of
their followers who really believe that
free silver would give us sound money
and those who want unlimited issues of
cheap money based on nothing. If they
decide for the latter, they will lose the
support of all the believers i'll common
honesty and property rights who have
been deceived into fayoring free coinage.
If they 60 against fiat paper money,
they will lose the aid of the Populists.
In either case the cause Of sound money
will gain.

Some Of the silverites are profuse in
their protests that they only want BIZ
metallism and do not wish to cease
using gold as standard of values or to
drive it out of CIRCULATION. But it is
only necessary to read the papers and
speeches in which the free coinage doc
trine is preached to see that, while pre-
tending to favor using gold, they really
want silver alone. The wholesale de-
nunciation of gold as money of the
rich" as "a standard which robs
debtors for the benefit of creditors, :"
ETC., shows that it is not merely love
of silver, but hatred of gold, which
inspires these attacks. Why not be hon
est, Messrs. Silyerites, and admit that
in advocating a policy which, on the
confession Of that eminent bimetallist.
President E. B. Andrews, "would drive
all our gold out of the country" you
are working for the silver standard?
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1895-08-09

A sign that the silverites are begin
ming to realize that free coinage at l6
to l is an impossibility is found in the
demand by some silver organs for the
coinage at that ratio of all silver pro-
duced in the United States. But this
scheme is just as absurd as the proposal
to open our minis to the worlds stores
of silver. No tariff would be able to
keep foreign silver out of this country if
it was valued here at a higher rate than
its commercial value Even though the
importation of bullion was prohibited,
it would be easy to bring in silver table
ware, ETC., which would be melted
down. The idea Of coming all United
States silver will not stand examination
The only safe basis is to coin as much as
can be maintained at parity with gold
AS soon as our supply of the latter metal
increases to a proper amount we may
venture to coin more silver. But not till
then.

New Building Collapsed.

NEWARK, Nov. Wednesday af-
noon two stories of the oven depart
ment of the Hersey glass plant col
lapsed. The cause of the fall of the
building is not known, though sever
al theories are advanced. The build
ings were in process of erection and
nearing completion. The roof was
partly on and would have been entire
ly so in about week but for the acci-
dent. Several score of workmen were
in their places near the collapsed walls
and floors when the crash came, and
the fact that only one man was killed
seems like miracle. Samuel Cooper,
an ironworker, was crushed to death.
The financial loss is heavy.
