The value Of silver has not gone down. say
the Popocrats. 1t is the increase in the value OF
the gold dollar that is causing all our financial
woes The gold dollar is worth great deal
more than Il hundred cents and that is why the
prices of farm produce have declined II silver
were fully remonctiZed its value would rise. and
the value of gold would fall until the two were
exactly at par N the ratio OF 16 to /. Thus argue
the Juvenile Dccamer and his followers.
But lei Us see about it. If gold has risen in
value why has it risen? Such matters are regii-
lated by the law of supply and demand. When
the demand for any commodity exceeds the sup
ply. the price, which is the market value, rises.
When the supply exceeds the demand. the price
falls How is it with gold? The supply is
ample The annual production of the metal,
both in this country ana in the world at large.
is steadily increasing. New mines are being
opened new processes invented. Coolgardie and
the Rand are enormously swelling the output.
III 1856 the worlds production of gold was. in
round numbers. 500 230.00C. In 1889 it was
S127 100000 In 1892 it was $14G297 800 In
1894 it was $17996J,G 800 There is no cause for
increase of market value in such figures
Well. they say. but much Of the gold is used
in the arts that little is left for use as money,
caused contraction Of the currency. and that has
forced up the value OF the gold dollar
Let us sec about that, too In 1860 before the
issuing Of grcenbacks was begun. the amount
Of money i'll circulation was Sl3 - for every
pcrson. IN 1868, with the enormous flood Of
papar tha. had been issied. the per capita
amoun- was $50 -. In 1873 when the Treas
ury was preparing to resume specie payments.
it was Sl5 s.. In 1859 it rose to SD 81. In 1856
It was down To S2l So In 1890 it was S22 SO in
1892 * was 81 H. and in 1894 It S2I 80.
In other words. there has been in late years Il
much larger volume OF currency in circulation.
on gold basis. than there ever was before on
n GOLD AMI silver or on q paper basis. II the
people coull get along on $l3 81 apiece. in gold
and silver. in 1860 surely they should be able
10 do so now on S24 in gold. or currency
redcemable in gold. And if gold dollar was
worth only one hundred cents when there were
less than fourteen dollars of all kinds for each
person in the country why should 1t he worth
more than one hundred cents when there are
twenty-four gold dollars. or dollars as good as
gold for each person? Does increasing the sup
ply increase the price: II so. it certainly is not
contraction but rather initiation. of the currency
that has sent the value OF the dollar up and the
prices OF produce down.
The smpla fact is. ali this chatter about The
rise in Tho value of the gold dollar is about as
illogical anG scf-contradictory as anything could
be II is at par with the claim of a farme: who,
measuring up 200 bushels of potatoes from an
acre of ground one year, and only 100 bushels
from the same acre the next year. should say
that the bushel measur, had increased in size.

A LOYAL REPUBLICAN,.

The address which ex-senator Warner Miller
has issued TO the Republicans of Hlcrkmer Coun-
~ Is entirely in keeping with the dignited ana
patriotic conduct exhibited by Kim throughout
the whole contest which resulted in his unwar-
rantable exclusion from the Saratoga Conven-
tion TO which he had been elected delegate.
Mr. Miller was an outspOkcn advocate of Nc
Knley's nomination and defender Of his good
name against assaults Of his opponents. The
consequent attempt to deprive him of a voice in
party mana cement was met by him with self
respecting effort to give the Republicans of Her
kmer County the representation which they
themselves decreed When his and their rights
were denied he told the facts plainly. without
tinge of bitterness. and declared that the per
sonal treatment accorded to him would not in
any wise attest his loyalty to the Republican
party Immediately after the Convention he
made an address to an immense audience. urging
support OF The State ticket. Then he began
preparations for campaign work in Maine, and
for later work in this and other States. Now he
comes ont With n ringing letter to his friends.
who naturally felt hurt that leader Of the Re
publican party for so many years should be ex-
cluled so cavalierly from the counsels of the
organizations reminding them of the importance
OF the campaign. ana cIllng upon them 10 sup
port Black and Woodruff with all heartlness
and to roll up for them the largest majority ever
given for Republican ticket.
This is genuine patriotism. Mr.. Miller does
not in any sense surrender his convictions. nor
change his policy as an advocate of good gov
ernment and honest politics. But he puts aside
all personal feeling. He is broad-minded enough
TO perceive and acknowledge the good character
of the Saratoga candidates. He recognizes the
imperative necessity of carrying this State for
sound money. and he is doing all in his power
as he said he would do, in behalf Of Republican,
ism. Mr.. Miller is Il good Republican and good
citizen.
