States; that Is to say, he is for raising
silver TO permanent parity with gold,
through an international agreement
which WIN include the great commercial
nations OF the world. But he sees moth

arise from am effort by the United States

Immense numbers of failures would oc-

At last they would become higher than
now, and more approaching the Mexican
and Japanese level. Some advantages
would doubtless spring from the eleva.

pose that it would redress the iniquity
caused by the fall of prices since 1873,

by the fall would manage to profit again
by the rise. Moreover, wages would rise
more slowly than values at large.
Every recognized advocate of blmetal-
lism in Europe takes the same ground.
There Is not one of them who does not
look upon the scheme of the free coinage
by the United States independent OF
other powers as simply the substitution
of the single silver STANDARD for the gold
standard, or In other words, the worst
possible kind of monometalIism; and as
working the indefinite postponement OF
bimetallism. All the recognized authori-
ties on bimetallism dn Europe and in the
United States concur in this view. And
they all, without exception, Infinitely pre-
fer a monetary system which, by limit
ing the coinage of silver, raises it to a
par with gold, TO h system which would
ban.sh gold entirely from circulation and
drag all other currency down to the

ELI PERKINS ON TRpE COINAGE

bLl iDthlNS YIN ruNrIN SOlN<AHn1'
'If we Should finally have free coinage
and Il should raise the price of silver
from 50 to 100, | don't know what would
become of our surplus silver" said a
Montana silver miner on Wall street to-
day.
"What do you mean by surplus silver?"
l asked,
"Why for the last ten years we miners
have been exporting silver to Europe,
and II they can't get our silver at the
market price, they'd buy It in South
America, Mexico or Japan where they
can get it cheaper"
How much silver have we been ex-
portlng?" asked.
From sS6,OO0,OOO to slO.OOO,0O0 a year.
"And the product Is increasing every
year,"
II should say IL was In 1898 we mined
$17,576,OOO worth of silver, and only SS5,-
$4,000 worth of gold. Now this silver is
worth $77,576,0OO at the market price, but
II we coined It at 16 to the government
would pay twice that amount for 1t, or
$685. i62, ,OOO"
"And the production OF silver would
Increase II the price were doubled, you
thnb?"
would double In a year 1t would take
$500 100000 a year in gold to buy the out
put 1t would take $1,000. .OOO, 900 to buy ten
years output OF American silver alone"
But suppose the government stopped
buying lt?'
'why, then silver would drop to the
worlds market price In ten minutes, just
as IL has In Chtna and Mexico"
'Do you think It would be possible for
our government to go on buying all the
silver we mined for series OF years?" I
asked.
''Could this government do I'll" ex-
claimed the miner. why OF course she
couldn't. Where Is she to get the gold TO
guarantee this silver with? She Is In
debt now to England for s60,0OO,000 worth
OF gold. Six months ago democrats and
republicans in congress said the coinine
OF siS0OO.OO0 worth OF silver a year was
sending gold out OF the country and
running us, and where would this nation
end II she tried to coin $500, 100000 worth
a yearg
The o.d miner was right. Every nation
that has had free coinage has gone into
bankruptcy. The silver they coined was
legal tender. too. All the 60-cent dollars
in China. Japan. India and Mexico are
legal tender. They are legal tender for
debts A note drawn thlrty years ago
for 500 dollars can be paid now with llfty
5O-cent dollars. A man working on 800
salary really gets $50 The laborer who
was always paid u cents gets s. Capital
always owes labor. Labor is the creditor
class.

MoTHDR's SONG.

When THE thrushes cease their singing
and the wild bees leave THE clover;
When the glory of the sunset fades and
leaves the heavens pale;
When above the hills and mountains
misty shades Of twilight hover,
And the discords of the Daytime far
AWAY in distance fall
When THE rath wheat gently rust.es, and
he timld aspens shiver,
And THE west winds, signing softly,
scent from sleeping flowers bring;
When the peewits cry together pla.ntive-
iy by brook and river
Then 1t is / hear the old song that
my mother used to sing.
Round my neck 1 feel the pressure of her
fingers, warm and slender,
And in sleeping dreams and waking
have felt 1t many times,
Just as when of old / listened to the
ditty, quaint and tender,
TIN the boughs that waved above us
caught In the cadence of the rhymes;
And my heart throbs loud nnd quickly as
hear it rising clearer,
Youth is mine, It's hopes and visions,
dreams and plans are mine again;
Earth is fairer life Is sweeter-ay, and
heaven itself seems nearer
To me as tlst in nlncy ITO that ne'er
forgotten strain.

A WISE FREE SILVER EDITOR.


Pioneer Press.
Captain Howell, editor OF the Atlanta
Constitution, free silver organ, mas
been Interviewed by the New York Tri-
bune. Among other things he is quoted
as saying that 1here is no use in deny
ing UtIt, During the period when silver
was most largely used, from 1860 to 1875,
was the most prosperous time we have
ever known" Now the Atlanta Con-
stitut1on is said to be one Of the lead
ing and most Influential papers in the
south. 1t ds the chief organ of the silver
interest in the South 1t makes special
ty of inaEclIl wisdom. But there is no
boy of ten years of age in tine northern
states who reads the newspapers who
could not have told Mr.. Howell that there
was not a dollar of silver in circulation
In the United States during the period
from 1860 to 1875, when he says 1t wae
mos. largely used. 1t is just such Grass,
sodden, astounding ignorance as this on
the part of the editor of IA heading south
ern advocate of free silver; just sucn
jaunty bumptiousness of confident asser-
ton about things he knows nothing about
ard has newer taken the slightest trouble
to inquire about which has mfsled and De-
luded THE ignorant masses of the south
ern people on this question.
Inere was NOT, we repeat, single
dolllar in use as money in the entire
United States of America during the
period when he says 1t was most largely
used, and when IT was the most prosper
Gus time we ever had by reason of sts
larger use There Is nearly $500, 900 900 OF
silver in use in this country today, either
In the shape of coin or its paper repre-,
sentatives, or six hundred million times
more silver than during his supposed sil-
yer age. If prosperity results from the
large use of silver we should be just de-
luged with prosperity. 1t is natural that
a man vino starts out with showing that
he is utterly ignorant of the whole sub,
ject should be "in favor of arranging
money system to suit ourselves without
recognizing foreign powers in the ar
rangement." We have a trade with for
eign countries amounting to about $2,000,-
100000 annually, and of course we don't
want to have anything to do with them.
We sen our securities in Europe to the
extent of hundreds of millions of dollars
in order to raise money to build our rail-
roads and carry ON our business enter
prlses. OF course we don't want anything
to do with them. But they will have
something Ito do with ms If we seriously
propose to pay these securities in depre-
ciated silver coin. That Is, they will have
something to do with us until they get
rid of our securities, and then they win
have as iitItle to do with us as they can
help.

Prof. Wright has aghin demonstrated
his fitness for the responsible position
he fills, and his title to be ranked with
the foremost educators Of Oregon and the
Northwest by the close of one of the
most successful scholastic years In the
history of the public schools of Astoria.
It Is fact not generally known, but a
matter for the congratulaton of parents
and taxpayers in Astoria, THAT our pub
Nc school system is regarded In educa-
tional circles as ONE of the best and most
modern in the state. While the credit
for this high standard of efficiency is
largely due to Prof Wright's talent as
an organizer, 1t must be conceded that
he HAS had the benefit of the aid and
experience of perhaps the ablest corps
of assistants ever associated together
since the introduction of THE graded
school system in the city. 1t is to be
hoped with one or two exceptions, that
no change will be made in the present
organization, and that the same policy
which hhs produced such gratifying re-
suits In the year just closed may continue
without interruption during the term of
the school year next ensuing.
