then that the fat of the government in
giving legal tender quality to this mass
of silver has increased its value $2.35. So
also if you take S. gold piece to any
part of the world you can get for it at
least S. In value, in some places more.
Take five American silver dollars abroad,
and though they are worth one dollar
each in the United States, they are worth
! elsewhere only their bullion value. say So
cents each. Or bring five Mexican silver
dollars to the United States, and although
they contain more silver than our dollar
they will be worth little more than half
as much. 1t is useless to discuss any
phase of the silver question until these
elementary facts are clearly understood.
Some of our correspondents point out
that the anticipated consequences of free
silver coinage are contradictory Thus it
is said that the silver mine owner will get
81 for So cents worth of silver also. that
the dollar he gets will have purchasing
power only half as great as that which
it now possesses. Putting the two decla-
rations together, it appears that the owner
of silver will gain nothing. AS matter
of fact, though both results will follow
free coinage, they will not instantly fol-
low the enactment of the law, nor will
they follow simultaneously. 1t will take
some time to make adjustments on the
new basis. At the outset the silver owner
could convert silver worth much less than
a dollar into dollars worth their declared
value, but ultimately even he would be
no gamer, the silver dollar depreciating
In exchangeabe value. 1t is not worth
while, however. for any one to go into the
intricacies of the question. 1t is suffi-
Gent to know that the United States
alone cannot give free coinage to silver at
l6 to and maintain its parity with gold
that, failing to do 30. the country would
be reduced to silver basis like that of
Mexico and China; that on this basis the
prices of everything would be nearly, If
not quite double, but that the price of
labor would be the last to advance that
debts would be paid in deprecated cur.
rency, but that this would not benefit the
ordinary debtor, for he would have pro-
portionately greater difficulty in getting
the money to pay his debts I; that the
change in the monetary system would
create panic that the credit of the
country would be injured so that it would
become difficult to obtain the help of for
eign capitalists in developing our re-
sources that, in the absence of such help
and of the assistance of our own capital
lists. industries would languish. and that
when, after some years of suffering, the
nation should settle down to the new
basis it would at best have gained abso-
lutely nothing, for the most that could be
hoped for would be such readjustment
of prices, wages, etc., on silver basis as
would truly represent gold values
The price in suffering is rather big one
for such an elementary lesson in finances.
1t would be cheaper to take the lesson
out of the history of other nations.

The notion that the value of silver could
be-increased materially by its larger en-
ployment as currency can hardly be be-
lieved in face of the fact that the govern
ment bought and stored up tons and tons
of silver between 1878 and 1898 without
stopping the depreciation of this metal.

A GOOD many people who heard that
Jay Cooke, the eminent inancier, had
come out for free silver, said there must
be something in it." But there seems to
have been mistake about this business
Mr.. Cooke has published his views at
some length in the Philadelphia Bulletin.
He calls the Chicago platform wretched
and un-American, and declares he is
"willing to trust Mckinley and the Re-
publican party in all matters of tariff and
finance" Mr.. Cook believes that inter-
national bimetallism will be best for the
interests of the whole country.

THE waee-earners of the United States,
organized as home-builders in the various
building associations of the country. have
accumulated savings to the extent of $780,
100000. by which most of them expect
sooner or later to become owners of their
homes.
The adoption of the silver standard
would reduce the value of the savings Of
the wage-earning home-buildsrs from
$500,000,00O to about $25O,OOO.0OO. This
loss would be suffered without any COM
pensation to the people generally, and
with advantage to none unless it be the
few silver producers.

SOME of the silverites are beginning to
have glimmerings Of daylight as to the
effects Of free coinage at 16 to /. They
are naturally appalled, at the prospect,
and they are already inventing schemes
to avert the evil. One of the favorite pro.
posals is to check the food OF silver into
the Treasury by putting SO heavy a duty
on foreign metal as to prevent its impor-
tation.
This is funny. 1t is such a complete
''give-way," as the boys say, of the whole
silver case.
We are told that what the country
wants is money. more money. oceans Of
money. Yes, it wants cheap money, they
say. And yet they propose to prevent il
from getting the ocean of money, by in.
terposing tariff barrier. Is silver money
then good thing of which we might get
too much
Does it not look as if the western mine
owner wanted to get his own product
taken care of by the Government at the
rate of double its value, and was merely
using the money famine talk to bamboozle
and delude the thousands of voters who
do not understand the question, but are
dazzled by the gaud OF plenty of cash p
