power to irrigate from to 10 acres.

SECRETARY CARLISLE still insists that
the $685., 100000 of gold which he says
we have will pack up its things and go
of to Europe if we adopt silver coinage.

him in the discussion of the question
have intimated that European money
kings would come over and carry off all

Shy your leave" But Mr.. Carlisle says
that isn't the way at ALL It is this way:
American holders of gold will imme-
diately pack it up in barrels, boxes and
grip sacks, take passage on the first
steamer for Europe and buy silver with
it, because, he says. they can buy two
dollars for one. The secretary did not
make it just clear where they are to find
the one and quarter billion dollars of
silver for which to exchange their gold.
Look at the figures, $1,250,000,000 That
is the amount of silver that would be re-
quired to- exchange for our gold at two
dollars for one, and we are producing
more gold all the time. AS Europe has
no silver bullion and all her coined sill
yer is at lower ratio than Is to 1, hence
worth more than $129 an ounce, our free
coinage price, the country would now
like to be enlightened as to the location
of this vast amount OF silver.
