A PHILOSOPHER OF OLDEN TINE
DISCUSSES THE CUES

1t Was to Him a Silly Idea That Gov
eminent Could Maintain the Parity

Discussion OF the Great Financial
Problem.

In the great treatise on the value of
money by John Locke (see Works of
John Locke. London. 1928, Vol. W, one
Of the most acute and logical reasoners
that any nation or any age has given
to the world, he defines money to be
necessary to all sorts of men in trade
both for counters and for pledges"
This is his quaint and old-fashioned
way Of saying hat it is both a measur
or standard of value and a medium OF
exchange. Money, he tells us, carries
with it as counters" what he calls
"even reckoning" and as pledges It
carries security that he that receives
it shall have the same value for it
again, of other things that he wants,
whenever he pleases. The one of these
1t does by its stamp and denomination:
the other by its intrinsic value, which
is its quantity" The standard money
of Locke's day was silver. A given
quantity Of silver, whether stamped or
unstamped, has a certain intrinsic
value, and this intrinsic value consti-
tutes the security that he that receives
it shall have the same value for it

bread than 1t would before. 1t is silver

that Is the price OF things"
Locke meets the familiar objection to
this ~self-evident truth. that clipped
coin Is accepted. In many transactions.
at Its face valuation, by observing that
clipped and unclipped money will al
ways buy an equal quantity Of any
thing elese as long as they will with
out scruple change one for another"
It is all one to the seller. whether he
receives his money in clipped money or
not. so it be but current" But "if the
quantity Of your clipped coin be once
grown so great that the foreign merch-
ant CANNOT (if he has a mind to IT. east
ly set weight money for 1t. he will. in
selling his goods. either contract to be
paid in weight money. or else raise the
price of his commodity. according to
the diminished quantity Of silver in
current coin" The application Of
this remark to a silver dollar not worth

ment can float a limited. but not an
unlimited. number Of such dollars.
Locke moreover distinctly perceives

today the greatest parade the west had
every seen passed through the streets
Of Chicago as a portion of the celebra-
ton Of the dedication Of the building Of
the Columbia exposition. That parade
however, surpassed today by the
purely partisan march OF men who up

of different parties very widely differ
as to the number Of men in line, but
$50. 900 is claimed by the republicans.
The arrangements were perfect and
