Thus, in six years the worlds wheat
crop has increased nearly one-fifth. while
the facilities for getting the crops Of
every country into the markets of the
world have been so perfected in the past
few years that the surplus Of all wheat
producing countries is accumulated in
London, where the price for the world
is really made. 1t matters not that the
price of wheat in Argentine Is $3.50
bushel in deprecated paper money. it
sells for less than dollar in gold in
London. the Argentine price being the
equivalent Of gold in paper money.
Corn furnishes another Illustration. In
1872, long before specie resumption, the
price in st. Louis was 34.S cents bushel.
The year after the alleged crime of the
demonstration of silver-which was
never demonetized-corn rose to $50
cents. because the crop of the preceding
year was a short one. In 1878 corn was
down to 1876 cents, but 1t rose to 63.3
cents a few years later, following year
when there was but two-thirds Of a crop.
During the years which followed the
price OF corn fell to 2s3 cents in 1890,
after two unprecedented crops. In 1891
lean two-thirds crop followed. and corn
rose to 50.6 cents a bushel. With the
lean crop of 1894 the price rose from 36.5
cents to 45.7 cents. With the unprece-
dented crop of 1895 the price fell to less
than 2S.5 cents. Tuesdays Chicago quo
tation. If the currency system had any
thing to do with the price of corn it
would have fallen gradually from 34S
cents in 1872 to the present price. but the
currency has nothing whatever to do
with the price. Compared with the lean
crops Of ISL, .9l6.O 900 bushels-and
of 1Ss4-1,21 ,770.O52 bushels, the crop of
1ss5-about 2.40o. OO0. OOO-is nearly double.
and that fact has reduced the price.
AS for the currency. the amount OF sill
yer money and paper backed by silver in
the country now is equal to more than
two-thirds of all the deprecated paper
money which constituted the cuioency
of the country in 1872. In considering
this question fair-minded men should
give their common sense and reasoning
faculties show.

The public Is having some exhibitions
of what may be called contemplate
politics. In this locality Governor
Matthews is the leading actor. Two
years ago he was in favor of the free and
unlimited coinage OF silver. More than
six months ago to interviewers he said
that the free and unlimited coinage of
silver could not be assumed by the
Urited States alone. and advocated the
restoration of silver to full money
power by International agreement. Since
that time he has made several express
sions of opinion to the public and others
In private letters to Populists, and, as
one OF his spokesman has said to the
Journal, TO a number OF Republicans
who are In favor of free silver. declaring
that the present money system is made
qrate and should be changed.
1t is not the purpose of the Journal to
criticise the Governor specially. but only
to make him representative of a class
OF self-seekers and place-seekers in the
Democratic party who would sacrifice
the public welfare to retain position for
themselves and to keep their party In
power. With these men office is the one
end of political organization. Governor
Matthews was for free silver in 1894 be-
cause he thought 1t would check the
stampede OF Democrats TO the camp OF
the Populists. He was against free COIN
age last fall because he came to the con-
clusion that the sound-money element
would control the Democracy. He has
lapsed into free silverism because he has
come to the conclusion that the Indiana
Democracy Is In favor Of II and that the
Democrats stand a chance OF carrying
the State upon a free-silver platform.
Such politics Is contemplate because
it is inspired by the single purpose of
obtaining the spoils OF office. 1t Is con-
temptible because 1t betrays a cowardice
which is as disgusting in political action
| as on the battlefield Possibly there are
/ those who regard such vacillation as
| adroit politics; II II that sort OF adrott-
mes which leads the coward 70 skulk to

the rear when his command is under hot
fire. and to desert to the enemy when
he imagines such a course is for his in
terest. II is contemplate politics and
draws no inspiration from a high pur-
pose to promote the prosperity Of ma
tion- 1t is contemplate politics because
those who practice 1t would sacrifice the
interests of millions of people to secure
the control which will insure Offices for
few hundred professional place seek
ers.
Nine-tenths of the intelligent business
men and others who keep abreast with
the affairs OF the day believe that the
adoption of free coinage of silver at the
present ratio would bring on a financial
panic which would paralyze industry,
PROSTATE commerce and involve the
whole country In financial ruin. Expert
ence teaches that such would be the re-
suit. Even the vague fear Of 1t now is a
menace to business, yet men like Gov
ernor Matthews. to whom Office getting
is the chief end of existence, would well
come the evils referred to IL. by so do
ing. a victory could be won for the few
men who are in politics for revenue and
to crafty selfish ambition.
Andrew Jackson and Thomas H. Ben
ton in their time denounced such self
seeking Democrats.

LARGE CROPS AND Low PRICES.

A correspondent in yesterdays issue
assumes that the gold basis currency Is
responsible for the low price of the prod
ucts Of the farm. If he would go to sta
tistics and cease to make assumptions
If the prices Of all the products of the
farm and factory had fallen steadily
year by year. in spite of the increase of
silver money made as good as gold, his
assumption would have basis. Such is
not the case. Prices have been up and
down. For instance, wheat, as long ago
as 1878, when the country was upon a
paper money basis. was worth but 77.2
cents. The next year, when the country
came to specie payments on the present
basis, wheat jumped up to 110.S cents.
The price fell to 80 cents in 1880. and
jumped up to 1873 cents bushel in 1881
In 1884 it fell to IS cents, recovered to S7.3
cents in 1888, fell again in 1889, and got
back to S3.9 cents in 1892. In 1894 it fell
to 49, cents. and was quoted in Chicago
yesterday at so. Now. if the currency
had been responsible for the prices the
fall of wheat from 1878 to 1895 would
have been gradual. year after year. On
the contrary, there was a rise from 65
cents. q bushel in 18S4-5 to S3.9 cents In
1891. Furthermore. those who compare
the yields year by year with the volume
of export and prices will find that short
crops or large crops. with excessive ex-
port, maintain good prices, while bounti-
full crops, with small exports, are coupled
with low prices. Wheat, with limited
export. is 10 cents higher now than the
average Of last year. because the crop
Is smaller. The chief cause Of the fall
in the price Of wheat of late years the
world over is the increased production,
which the following figures of Brad
streets show.
