EQUAL RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES.
Free Coinage Would Unjustly Favor Silve,
For the Benefit of u Few.

The Democratic state convention Of
South Carolina adopted a platform
drawn by Senator Pitchfork Tillman
which declared that "a sound and just
system of finance is the most potent fac
tor in a nations prosperity, and we de-
mand the restoration of the money of
the constitution by giving silver the
same rights and privileges given to gold.
We demand the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver at a ratio of 16 to L."
1t is true that the nations prosperity
depends on a sound and just system Of
finance. 1t is also true that silver should
receive the same rights and privileges
given to gold. But it is not true that
these desirable ends would be attained
by free silver at Is to /. On the con-
trary, that scheme violates every prin-
ciple of sound and just finance, and is
directly opposed to the great Jeffersonian
doctrine Of equal right to all and special
privileges to none.
1t would be a waste of time to show
that the free and unlimited coinage OF
silver dollars, the commercial value OF

Nor is it needful to discuss the justice
of a scheme for robbing creditors Of one
half of the property they have loaned.
These things are self evident. But for
the benefit Of those persons who believe
that our currency laws favor gold by
giving it privileges denied to silver, it

fine, lone dollar the United States
simply certifies to the weight and fine
ness of the coin. The mint stamp does
not fix the value of the gold nor does it
add to it in any way. Gold is coined at
its market or bullion value.
With silver the government is more
liberal. Over 422, 000, 900 silver dollars
have been coined, in none of which is
the metal of which they are composed
worth their face value. The United
States takes silver bullion now worth 68
cents per ounce and coins it into dollars
at g ratio which implies that it is worth
$1.29 per ounce. That such coins circu-

but special privileges for silver. They

instead of coming silver at its com
mercial value, which is all that is
done for gold, the government would
declare that 3714 grains of pure silver
is worth as much as 23. % grains
of pure gold. Since the market ratio Of
the two metals is about TAO grains of
silver to %. % of gold it can easily be
seen that free coinage would be the
rankest kind of favoritism to silver.
Instead of asking for equal privileges
the silver mine owners and their agents
are trying to secure class legislation
such as is given no other industry in the
world

The Tail Too Small to wag the Dog.

The total population Of the silver
mining communities. including all those
who are directly or indirectly dependent
ON silver money for a living, cannot ex-
coed 700, 600. Why should the interests
of the 20. 600, 900 people of the United
States be sacrificed to the supposed in

number? Isn't it a pretty insignificant
tail to wag such a s~tupendous dog?-St.

senate to present a testimonial to Sena-

that each contribution should be $40.
but some of the Democratic senator's re.

The present will consist of a silver

PAYMENT OF NATIONAL DEBT.

One OF the boasts Of gold standard
Republican campaign orators and
writers IL the claim that we have al-
most paid our great war debt. Let us
look to the official facts aud see just
how much we have paid, and what
part of II we have paid. In round'mll-
lions the public debt reached It's maxi
mum August 81, 1865, and amounted
10 S2,s44, ,OOO,O On the same date
the "lnterest bearing bonded debt" F"
was 81, 100 ,OO0, 900. See report Comp
trollcr 1895, vol. I, page $40.
Adding the last one hundred mll-
lions issued since this report OF 1895
was made, the debt now Is S0ll ,000,-
600. Here there is Il decrease in the
"lnterest bearing bonded debt" since
1865, 30 years, OF only SlSS,0O0,0O, or
80, 300, 900 annually. That isnot much
TO boast OF. IL Is however the fact as
| find IL In the official report.
But let us see how much they have
reduced u measured. In farm products.
Excepting about $2OO,OOO,O 900 issued
before the war,and payable in dollars,
and for which the government had get
silver, or gold cOin, and which In good
faith should be paid in coin;and about
another 5000, 900 Of 1910 bonds
which by law were payable expressly
In coin--not gold coin--all the balance
Of this interest bearing bonded debt
was 10y express provision of the legal
tender act, payable in the same kind
OF money their owners had paid, and
the government had received for them
legal tender greenbacks. Let us then
reduce this 400, ,0O0,OO OF coin debt TO
legal tender basis, by adding 80 per
cent or 100000, 900. Thus August 81,
1865, after the war was over, when the
government was not under necessity
10 borrow money, nor TO issue bouds,
tile interest bearing bonded debt, re-
corded In the money which they had
paid for the bonds; and which the
government had promised TO pay, and
they had promised TO receive, and
which measured all products, at II to-
tai of 81 ,SOo, 100000,
Now IL is s9ll ,OOO,O and payable
by loan In coins, either silver or gold,
at the option Of the government.
The average value of an acre OF the
farmers corn in 1855, was sl7; in 1895,
1901. As the debt then stood-in
greenbacks--it could have been paid
with n, 900, 900 acres. AS IL II stands
now, payable in coin, IL will purchase,
and IL will take l3l, 900, 600 acres 10
pay IL, an increase Of 64,oOO,OoO acres.
Wheat was worth sl7.60 per acre;
now 5000. Then 74,OOo,OOO acres
would have paid the debt now il will
take 1870, 900, 900, an increase OF Se,oOO,-
600 acres. A barrel Of pork was worth
then s29; now only sll.s5. Then the
debt could have been paid with $1,000
300 barrels; now It win take 5000 600,
