silver Arguments "knocked Out


Three OF the chief arguments Of the sill
verites that were much in use when the
interest in the silver question began to
grow in intensity are now seldom men
toned. They have been knocked out"
They are that silver is the poor mans
money. that prices OF products depended
upon the volume OF money in circulation
and that prices would not improve until
the price Of silver was increased by making
the coinage Of it free and unlimited.
The silverites dropped the first argument
when they discovered that the laboring
people began to resent the insinuation that
cheap dollar was good enough for them.
The laboring people. as soon as they gave
attention to the matter, could not under
stand why silverites called the cheap dol
lar the poor mans money. They felt they
were entitled 10 the very best money-the
power. Their Interpretation Of the silver
lite argument that silver is the poor mans
money was, and is that il meant reduc-
ton in their wages. That Interpretation
was the correct one. The silver mine own
ers want to pay their laborers in cheap sill
yer dollars. II the silver mine owners
could do that, without raising wages. they
would be in a position TO greatly increase
their profits. The Ia boring man is entitled
to be paid his wages in the best money,
which is gold or it's equivalent.
The silverites have found it impossible to
show that prices Of products depend upon
the volume Of sound money in circula ton.
The per capita circulation in France is
about twice what it is in England and the
prices Of products in each country are
about the same. In this country in 1850 the
per capita circulation was about Sl4. Now
It is $23. According to the silverites, there
fore. prices Of products ought to be very
much higher now than they were in 1860.
As matter OF fact the prices of about all
manufactured products and some farm
products are lower The foregoing facts
completely answer the volume of money
argument.
Neither have the silverites been able to
show that silver has anything to do with
prices. Recent changes in prices show it
has Nothing to do with them For instance
since April there has been scarcely any
change in the price of silver, but the price
of cotton has advanced about 10 per cent
and the price of wheat about So per cent,
thus conclusively showing that silver has
no influence whatever in the matter Of
prices of products. 1t would be interest
Ing to know If the silverites have any ar
guments for the free and unlimited coin
age Of silver which have not been shown
time and time again to be false.

The Rail Nozzle Orator.
From the Washington Post Qnd.)

A correspondent writes the Post to in
Quire as TO what we meant when we re-
ferred tosHon. William j. Bryan as ball
nozzle orator" AS a rule, the Post avoids
statements which seem to call for dia-
grams or explanations, but as the ball
nozzle Is something new, we are inclined
to believe that our subscribers interroga-
ton is perfectly proper. The ball nozzle
is by some thought to be a new force
Nobody can explain II, and scientists knit
their brows and fail In their efforts to
look wise when they examine 1t. 1t is
demonstrated by attempting to blow a
The harder one blows the tighter the ball
sticks. No blow, no stick. Up to the pres
ent time there has been no very practical
scheme for utilizing this new force beyond
attaching it to the end of a hose. We
trust our reader grasps the idea: No Bry-
an, no blow. The more Bryan, the more
blow. Nobody can explain Bryan and, be-
yond attaching him to the end of the free
freaktsh power. Bryan Is easily the great
puzzle In political physics.

Poverty of Argument.
From the Philadelphia Ledger qnd

The poverty of argument shown by the
advocates of the free coinage of silver is
exemplifed by the address of one barrow
before the high school alumni at Rock
ford. H. in which he declared that with
free coinage the United States would not
buy silver, but would stamp II, and that
be in circulation. The confederate gov
eminent tried its hand at making money
plentiful by printing notes, but. as this
the fact that it was plentiful did not re,
lieve the south from embarrassment
Sound money and good credit are promot-
ers of trade. A large per capita circula-
ton OF deprecated currency is an evil,
not benefit.

nInckhurn,s setback.

It is announced that Senator Blackburn,
Of Kentucky, will continue his fight TO
succeed himself in the United States Sen
ate Notwithstanding the extraordinary
setback he received from the state con-
vention of his party on Wednesday. He is
personally very popular. and if the free
silver coinage agitation subsidies suffici-
emily before the next legislature is elected,
he may be successful but II that agita-
ton is continued aggressively, Senator
Blackburn might as well prepare to fold
up his political record and put it away,
because it will be completed.
There does not seem TO be a great deal
Of sympathy for him in Kentucky. There
was no particular reason why he should
have made himself the leader of the free
silver coinage agitation in Kentucky. He
could have remained quietly at his home
and taken no part in the agitation further
than to simply announce his views. That
did not suit him, however. He wanted to
appear to be a great political leader-a
statesman who carried his state in hio
pocket. He was so sure that Kentucky
democrats were overwhelmingly in favor
of free silver coinage that he believed he
would have no difficulty in having dele
gates chosen to the state convention that
would follow his lead. No other public
man ever made a greater mistake SEN
ator Blackburn failed to get on the plat
form committee, which he hoped to in
duce to make declaration in favor of free
silver coinage.
Nobody, of course, ever regarded Senator
Blackburn as a man of first-class ability.
He ranks far below Mr.. Carlisle. and un>
less he gives up his free silver heresy he
will have no rank in politics at all. Some
of the democratic leaders in this state
might learn a lesson from Senator Black
burns misfortune that would be benen-
cial to them.

Two InduIgent Fnthers.

Dives and Lazarus let US call them
two fathers of families, one a millionaire,
the other, wrestling with poverty, says the
New York Press. They had been college
chums, and met at Delmonico's for the
first time in ten years, Lazarus the guest
of Dives
What do you give your children to make
them happy?" asked Lazarus, the question
of their families having come up.
''Oh, everything" Dives replied; horses,
dogs, guns, a yacht, base ball nine a
tors, brass bands, amateur theatricals.
and don't know what else. Why do YOU
ask, Lazarus? What do you give yours %
Give mine? There's only one thing 1
can give 'em these hard times, Dives"
What's that2"

Every man who owns bicycle is now his
own weather prophet, says the Louisville
Post. He holds in his hand the long
sought solution of the problem how to
make rain
If his wheel gets muddy and he lets 1t
say So clear weather will be assured. If
he attempts to clean off the mud a shower
will result within twelve hours. If he
cleans and pohshes the wheel so that II
shines like new, a terrific thunder shower
will fall as soon as he tries to go for a
ride.
A large number of wheelmen have found
this to be a fact and as you can't ride
a wheel during wet weather the fact that
so many muddy wheels are seen proves
that they are left dirty to avoid causing a
rainStorm.

Tarred With the Same Stick.
From the Philadelphia Record Dem.

Secretary Morton, in a letter to the New
York chamber of commerce, points out
that one effect of the free coinage of sill
yer, If ii should be adopted, would be TO
double tariff duties, since all imports must
be valued in American money and the de-
probation of the currency by one-half
would necessitate a corresponding mark
ing up of all valuations. In other words
free coinage and McKinleyism are tarred
with the same stick. In the guise of high
patriotic purposes. both are attempts to
despoil the millions for the benefit of a
favored few.

The Poor Man and His Money.
From the Chicago rimes-Herald qnd

It is the hight of folly to say that a
poor mans dollar should be a cheap or
a deprecated dollar. If there is any man
that needs and should demand the best
money in the world, ii should be the man
who works for wages and is constantly a
creditor. His employer becomes his debt
or day after day until pay day comes, and
after that the same round goes on again.
Consequently, If there is or can be devised
such a thing as poor mans money, let it
be the best money, not the worst, worth
hundred cents on the dollar all the time
and PXerYMhere.

A check for SI,vv,O0O, in payment of a
subscription TO the recent government
loan, passed unnoticed through the New
York clearing house the other day, in the
regular course of business. Had the check
been for one cent, and signed by the same
firm of bankers, instead of S1OOO,OO0, the
newspapers would have printed pictures of
it. and the check would probably have
been framed and hung upon some banking
house wall.

The bicycle riders have won a notable vic
tory in New York. The board of aldermen
has passed a law requiring all vehicles to
carry lights at night. Thus wheels are put
on an equal footing with carriages and
wagons, and bicycle riders are afforded
the benefit of the same warning that they
are required to give to others.

A Kentucky court has before 1t an unus-
ual and somewhat interesting case. An ex-
county judge who was elected to office on a,
pledge to serve for salary of $500 year
and let the fees go to the county, is suing
the county for balance on the fees. The
ex-ofiicial was evidently one of those poll
ticians who being out, wanted 10 get in,
and was willing to promise anything in
order to get in, without having any idea
of living up to his promises.

Mr.. J. c. Shaw, who will manage the
new theater, is reported to be now in New
York making bookings for the next sea-
son. 1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Shaw
will make arrangements to open the
house with some f1rst-class play. Usually
the theatrical season in the south is OPEN
ed with a ''nigger" minstrel show. No
such show is wanted by the people of Sa-
vannah for the first night in the new
play house. 1t is understood that the new
owners of the theater purpose construct
ing house that the people of the city will
be proud of. If that is the case, the people
ought not to be asked to go out to the
opening of the place to witness a burnt
cork performance.
There is a matrimonial cut-rate war on
at Kansas City. The justices of the peace
allege that the probate judge is not tot
ing fair in the marrying business; that
he solcits the business of couples sent by
the justices to the court house to get IL
| censes, and performs the ceremony at re-
duced figures. The Justices therefore, have
posted rates calculated to cut into the
probate judges income, and to boom the
marrying business, even If the times are
hard. With all of this. however, Kansas
| City is not equal to South Carolina in
making matrimony easy. In the Palmetto
state no license is required, and anybody
can perform a binding ceremony if it takes
place in the presence of witnesses
Says the Marietta (Ga) Journal: "A
| Cobb county farmer was in Marietta
| Wednesday of this week going from per-
son to person wanting TO exchange silver
for gold. This means something" 1t does.
1t means that the Cobb. county farmer
was needlessly alarmed about his silver
money and wished to exchange it for more
stable money. 1t means, Furthermore, that
it is time to stop trying to fool the farm
ers by telling them that the dollar under
a silver standard would be as good as a
dollar under the gold standard The action
of the Cobb county farmer shows that the
farmers are beginning to understand the
silver question.
