Farm Wages md Profits.

Ex-Governor Boies of Iowa says that
he cannot pay the present rate of wages
and make his 3, 500 acre farm pay He
says that no farmer who has to hire his
help can make money at farming under
the gold standard. Ex-Congressman
Bland says that wages of all kinds will
rise under free coinage.
1t would naturally be inferred from
Boies' statement that he wants free
coinage to lower farm wages so that the
big farmers can make money out of the
labor of others. BANDS opinion evil
IDENTIFY is that free coinage would be a
good thing for the farm laborer and
therefore. so far as wages are concerned.
bad thing for the boss farmers.
The two leading free coinage advo.
Gates should get together. 1t might also
be we'll for farmers and "farmhands'
to investigate these conflicting state.
The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1896-07-10

To the warning Of the true bimetal-
lists that free silver coinage at 16 to
by this government alone would drive
gold out of use as money and so cause
disastrous contraction shallow critics
sneeringly ask, Where would the gold
go tor
1t would go where it went during the
war time-either abroad or into hiding
or into vaults as commodity for spec.
ulative gambling
1t would go where gold has gone in
every free coinage country in the world
out of sight and out of use either as
currency or as the reserve for banks.
Gold is now in general use as currency
in the Pacific states 1t is held by the
government and by banks in all parts of
the country as a reserve TO sustain the
circulation of greenbacks and treasury
notes and to maintain the bank credits.
1t serves perfectly its function as money.

Cause of Free Silver Craze.

The causes of the free silver craze are
thought by the Baltimore Sun to be
"the same which caused the greenback
heresy to find advocates in so many
states of the Union 20 years ago-the
feeling Of unrest and desire for a
change, no matter what, produced by
hard times, bad business and lack of
employment-the desire, conscious or
unconscious, Of debtors to scale their
debts by paying them in a deprecated
ourrency-the vague idea that more
money in circulation means more
money in each individual pocket, with
out reference to his means or opportunity
to earn or acquire il. -

FARM PRODUCTS.
Prices Have Fallen Because OF Increased
Production In All Parts of the World.

| Prices Have Fallen Because OF Increased
Production In All Parts of the World.
q. Is it true that the price of wheat
and many other farm products has fallen
heavily? A. 1t is.
Q. How are such declines. in wheat,
for instance, to be explained? A. By
the enormously rapid increase in grain
growing area throughout the world.
q. Has this increase been especially
rapid since lS72P A. The increase in
grain growing area in this period. espe.
cially in North America, South America
and Asia, has never been approached in
any equal period in the history of the
world.
Q. How do we judge Of actual com
petition in the sale of wheat? A. BY
the supplies thrown annually ON the
worlds great distributing markets.
q. What market in particular? A
England. where most of the buying
nations go to purchase their grain
O. What are the figures? A. AS re.
Gently as 1880 Great Britain imported,
for consumption and re-export, 55, 261, :
924 hundredweight of wheat-a large
increase over the preceding annual aver
age. In 1895 it imported 81, 149, 900
hundredweight
q, What has made possible this re-
markable increase in wheat production?
A. The exceedingly rapid development
OF transportation facilities in newly cul.
tivated grain countries; among them
India. Russia and the Argentine Re-
public.
Q. Has there been an increase in the
United States itself? A. can enormous
increase.
@. How large? A. In 1876 there
were 26, $751;, 5l2 acres Of wheat cult
waited in this country; in 1891 there
were 80, GIG, S07, an increase of so per
cent. The yield IL 1875 was 292, 1885,.
900 bushels. heavy increase over pre-
ceding years. III 1891 the yield was
Gil, 100000. Even last year. with q
greatly rcdrccd acreage and q partial
crop failure, the yield was 487, 100, 900
bushels.
q. Has the yield Of other crops in.
creased coTcspondingly? A 1t has.
Q. Give instances A. The cultivated
uICb VI COIii III tDt Cullcu StutpS III
1871 was 1901, 1877 acres; in 1891 it
was rs, 204, 015; increase, 124 per cent.
The yield Of corn last year was more
than double that of any year prior to
1875. Both the acreage and the average
annual yield of oats have doubled since
1871. Our cotton crop in 1894 was 90
per cent greater than in any year prior
to 1887.
Q. Was a decline in grain and cotton
prices under such conditions inevitable?
A. AS inevitable as q decline in the
price of clothing or furniture or books
or steel rails or pins when competition
in their manufacture has extended enor-
mously.
@. Would free coinage help the pro-
ducers Of grain to large profit under
such conditions? A. Not in the least.
Q. Why not? A. Because if the NOM
inal price of grain were to rise through
initiation of the currency the price of
everything else would rise also, and the
farmer would be relatively no better off
than he was before. New York Even.
