In q recent issue we made a few remarks
on silver money. The position OF silver
money in countries having 4 gold standard
may be further illustrated 10y comparing it
with the position Of paper money. Paper,
sven of the very finest quality, is worth very
little, and yet a small piece of printed paper
may pass current as money, and be worth
anything from a few cents up to thousands
of dollars, according to what is printed upen
it and the stat us of the corporations or per
sons issuing It. When the paper money is
needed for convenience and everybody using
it believes in the solidity of the issuers, the
paper passes at its face value. For example
a Ave pound Bank Of England note (Which is
a promise to pay five ponnds( is worth its
fucs value almost anywhere, because 1t is IL
convenient form of money, and everybody
believes in the Bank of England and feels
certain that the note will be redeemed as soon
as presented. The United States Govern
ment issues o large number of notes, com
monty known as green backs They are
always worth their face value, because every
body is confident that the United States Go
vernment would be able and willing to redeem
them if they We're presented. 1t happens that
in these islands "green-backS" are worth a
little more than their face valre, because
there are frequently persons going to the
States, or remitting small sums there. who
find them convenient and are therefore will
ing to give a triae to get them. Some of us,
however, can remember a time when "green-
backs even in the country of issue, we're
not by any means worth their face value. 1t
, 1896-10-03

was du ring the war of Secession; tie Go.
veanment needed money and forced the green
backs on the country. Nobody could refuse
them or call one less than a dollar, and yet
people were q little uncertain as to the re-
suit of the war, and therefore a little uuoer-
tain Of the ultimate redemption of the green
backs" The consequence was that all values
went. up. Gold was said to be at a premium,
and the premium was added on the price of
all articles sold. The law prevented people
from saying that the paper dollar was not a
dolliA, SO they said the same thing III another
way; the paper dollar had not tallen. but
everything else had risen. his Is obviously
the same thing, and illustrates for us how
utterly impossible it is for Government to Tx
values. Values are always ruled By the sur
rounding circumstances, and 1t IL Government
attempts to regulate them either trade is
checked or The attempt i, evaded and trade
goes on us before. We recently had a strik-
ing illustration of this point by cable from
Havanna. General WeyIer, We were told,
had ordered that the Government paper should
be accepted at par with gold. What was
the consequence? Simply that the banks
teclined to do business. Let US suppose the
Government here i'll bt.CT@x to itsue an order
fixing the wholesale price Of sugar at 5 cents
a pound. The reader, of course, hnds that
he cannot suppose any such aba"rdity, ami
vet such an order would be 10 more absurd
t'Aan the ord5l issued by General Weyler.
Paper money and silver money as at pre-
sent used in gold.standald countries like Eng
land and the United States both pass ut their
nominal value because people ineed them for
convenience and have confidence i'll the sia-
biIity Of the laws and il stitutions. it Is pos
siblo to conceive of both the paper and SILVER
money Of those countries sinking to their IN
trinsio values under different conditions from
those which now prevail, that is to say Of
certain paper money bee mfng practically
worthless ana Of the silver money sinking
to it's value us bullion.
