price of a bale of cotton declined
$32290, or 645S cents per pound in
eight years. Under the present nnan-

figures how can any intelligent man
pretend that it was the change in our
currency laws in 1878 which has re-
duced the money value of cotton?
The advocates of free silver may at
tempt to answer this exposure of their
low price for cotton argument by show
ing that there Was Il great increase in
the cotton crop between 1865 and 1878
This is true, but there has also been a
far greater quantity Of cotton produced
every year since 1873 than ever before,
the crop for 1892 reaching 9,O35 ,279
bales as compared with $3.50 sos bales
in 1873, the largest crop during the

WOULD HURT INSTEAD OF HELP
How FREQ Coinage Would Injure tho

The chief strength Of the 16 to l agi-
benefit the agricultural classes This
Is serious error. The facts Of all
human experience show conolusively
that free silver would cause widespread
ard prolonged injury to the farmers OF
this country.
The mere threat of free co image would
greatly injure the cmers by causing
an immediate calling in Of all loans
through the natural desire Of lenders to
get back money worth as much as they
lent. Hundreds of thousands Of farmers
would be unable to pay their mort
cages, and their farms would be sold at
sacrifice. No new loans would be
Forthcoming, as the owners OF capital
would not invest so long as there was
any danger that by change In the
money standard the value Of loans
would be cut in two AS the chief com
plant Of the farmers now is that inter
est is too high and capital is too scarce,
the effect of policy which would make
capital scarcer and dcarer can be fig
ured out by each farmer for himself,
A second way in which free coinage
would hurt agriculture would be by the
financial panic which would inevitably
follow the overthrow Of our present
sound financial system and the adop-
ton OF the unstable cheap silver stand-
ard. With the millions Of bank de-
posltors demanding their savings the
machinery of credits, by which SO large
part of the country's business is done,
would be suddenly stopped. Merchants
would be unable to buy goods for Lack
Of credit; manufacturing industries
would be closed down, as in 1898, and
| millions of workers would be idle
Men out Of employment do not buy as
much farm products as when they arc
at work, and the farmers who now
complain CT the lack OF markets fol
their produce would find themselves
with large part of their crops UNI
| sold. Would not this be a serious in
| jury to agriculture?
/ Another evil which free coinage
would bring to American farmers
would be the unsettlement Of their
trade relation with the great gold
| standard commercial nations, which
| purchase each year $500 00,000 worth
of our surplus farm products. The
adoption of the silver standard, will
its constantly tluctuating scale Of
prices, would prove the same barrier
to commerce between this and other
| countries that II has to trade between
gold standard Europe and India, China
and Japan. Do the farmers want tc
curtail and unsettle our foreign trade:
These are some Of the ways in which
free coinage at 16 to l would hurt the
farmers. No advocate of 53-cent dol
lars has ever been able to show single
way in which it would help them.

FREE SILVER AND PRICE OF
COTTON.


ropu,lst Statistics Which Prov, Sound
Money Statements.
The Arena a populist magazine, pub
fishes a series Of pictures intended to
show the great decrease in the purchas-
ing power OF bale of cotton, owing to
the alleged characterization" CT silver.
The money value of the first bale is
given as s41690 in 1865 The next in
the same series is for 1870, when the
money value had shrunk to $1,000
Other pictures give the varying values
down to 1894, the conclusion from the
whole being that the lack Of free sill
yer has caused the fall in the price OF
cotton.
How false this argument Is can be
seen by looking at the figures quoted.
Between 1865 and 1870 the price of cot
ton fell from 1888 cents per pound to
1898 cents BY 1873, the year OF the
crime" the price had gone down to
lS 80 cents In other words, the money
value of bale of cotton shrank from
$4,000 in 1865 to 1914, difference
OF S322.90, while the country had free
coinage of silver at 16 to L. Since that
time the fall in price has been much
less, having been only from So4 in
1873 to $39 in 1896 at the present quota
lions of $50 cents per pound.
The history of cotton prices shows.
