A Plain Admission.

When the general prosperity that
prevailed in this country from 1S45 to
1861 was pointed to as having taken
place under the Walker tariff, the Hon
orable James G. Blaine called attention
to the fact that that era of prosperity
was coeval with the vast influx of gold
from California and Australia, and
that the good times then prevailing
took place in spite of the Walker tar
if, which was along free trade lines,
rather than because of it.
Mr.. Mathew Marshal, the financial
writer of the New York Sun, in the
issue of June Sth OF that paper, says:
In that interval the advance o. the
gold production in South Africa and
the increasing wealth of the country
may be depended on to remove much
of the cause of the present discomfort
with the gold standard, and to assure
its permanence. The absorption of
gold by Russia and by Austria, which,
for the past four years. has been neu-
Trailing the effect of the South Afri-
can output, will soon cease; and then
the depression of prices of agricultu-
raj products, so much complained of
in Europe as we'll as in the United
States, will be followed by raise. and
the stock argument of the silverites
will be destroyed.
The reader will perceive, from the
above quotations, that gold men OF
both the Republican and Democratic
sides OF the house admit that an in
creased money supply increases prices.
If this is admitted the converse follows
that decreased money supply de-
creases prices and by money we do
not mean credit money, such as bank
notes, treasury notes. gold certificates.
etc., but money that finally pays a
debt-redemption money.
If. as Mr.. Marshal says, s.the alb
sorption of gold by Russia and Austria,

which for the past four years has been
neutralizing the effect of the South
African output will soon cease, and
the depression of prices of agricultu-
raj products the world over will be
followed by rise," why would not the
making of redemption money from sill
yer have the same effectp IF an in
crease of redemption money will in
crease prices, why should the produ-
Ger be compelled to wait until the
South African gold fields come to his
rescue, if they ever do. when he has a
money metal at hand more stable than
any other ever used for money purpos-
es?
Let every reader of the REGISTER
carefully note the admission that Mr..
Blaine made several year ago, and
that the New York Sun makes in the
present month: An increase in the
production of gold, which is now the
worlds money metal, will cause a rise
in prices and counterfeit the depression
that now prevails throughout the civil
lied world. In other words, as the
price of gold declines prosperity in
creases, because it makes money
cheaper and easier to get.
1t will not do to say that silver
would come to US in such floods under
free coinage that our money would be
worthless, for all the silver on earth
available for coinage could be put into
space one hundred feet long one
hundred feet wide and fifty feet high,
and then enough room would be left
for all the gold in the world available
for coinage. We believe that the in
crease of gold from 1916 to 1860, which
was then only one of the worlds mon
ey metals, did help to bring prosperity
to the producing clauses. We believe
that prosperity was wiped out in 1873
when silver was stricken from the
worlds list of money metals. An in
creased money supply and unfettered
trade relations will bring prosperity
again. Mr.. Blaine had an uncomfor-
table habit of telling the truth when
aroused. Mr.. Marshal is sometimes
betrayed into it.

The New York San affects to be-
lieve that the triumph of the silver
craze in the South and West is the re-
suit of determination of the party to
sit down on the third term idea. Let
not Eastern provincialism lay that
flattering JUNCTION to its soul. No one
in those sections takes the third
term heresy into account. If Grover
Cleveland were again the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency. he could
not carry township, a school district,
or a voting precinct, west of the AL
leghenies.

THE Southeast Gazette, the Duaklin
Democrat, and several other Demo
cratic papers in this section of the
State, are objectiug to the attempt OF
st. Louis lawyers to crowd out the
nomination of Democrat for the
Court of Appeals. 1t seems the notice
for the convention to nominate such
candidate was not sent out to the coun-
try press, while the legal fraternity OF
the city united in a '.non-partisap"
call upon Judge ombauer, a Re-
publican, to stand for re. election.
While Judge r. is an able lawyer
and an excellent official, there is
no doubt but the District can offer
just as acceptable men, in point
of legal merit and attachments, whose
political views are in consonance with
the majority of our people. At any
rate. the evident attempt of st. Louis
lawyers to dictate a candidate by
smothering public sentiment through
out the district, is un-Democratic and
can not be tolerated.
