LET II COME

Facts Concerning Flooding the CogntEy
with the Worlds Silver"
Our adversaTies, says Gen. J. B.
Weaver, in the ChsutauqusH, tell US
that If we succeed we shall be inun-
dated with cheap silver from every ma
ton under heaven, gold viii leave cur
shores. and we shall be ruined. But
the writer is panied TO know that
neither the silver standard people nor
the double standard folk can spare
their silver for shipment TO this cOun-
try. If they ship it hither what viii
they use at home? They have but a
trifing per capita circulation now. and
nearly a billion Of these people have no
gold at all. The writer once saw that
dire calamity, the departure Of gold,
overtake this country. During four
years Of waF'and IA years Of succeeding
peace gold refused to circulate and was
kept for sale, Boys were born during
this suspension Of specie payments
and reached military age, They grew
to be handsome, stalwaTt, respectable
young fellows without ever seeing a
coin dollar, The people cared but lit
tie for specie. The greenback met
every want and the people were fully
employed, prosperous and happy. All
our troubles have come upon us since we
closed the minis against silver, adopted
the policy of contraction and started on
our insane hunt for gold. Conditions
will continue to grow more and more
deplorable until we call a halt, about
face, and retrace our steps.
But let us inquire how much silver
there is in the world. If it is all likely
to come hither we should set our house
IN readiness for the tidal wave. All
authorities concur in placing the
amount at a fraction over 81, 6O0. OO0, O0Oi
consisting Of coin and bullion available
for coinage. This is the worlds supply
Of silver, and it includes our own stock
as well as that in other parts Of the
world. Now suppose the inundatiOn
should really come. After every pen
ny's worth Of silver has reached our
shores we will then have here four bill
lions seeking coinage and investment
We have 100000 people. This would
give US not more than S58 per capita
Of silver for our present population. 1t
is highly probable that there are advO-
Gates Of the single gold standard resid-
ing even in the middle and eastern
states who would be reckless enough to
accept their distributiye share without
q murmuF.
