How Saving. VIII b. Lost.

There will be millions Of mad farm
ers. workingmen, clerks and professional
men when they go to draw their little
savings out Of bank after we have gone,
or decided to go, to q silver basis, should
we foolishly decide to go there via the
16 to 1 short line. The 4, 875, $40 depos-
itors, who have 81, $40, 597, 1923 in saw
ings banks, would all suddenly conclude
to withdraw their savings and to con-
vert them into gold before we should
drop to the silver basis. Only a small
percentage could obtain their deposits
before the doors Of the banks would
close. The great majority of depositors
would have to wait until we had actu-
ally reached q silver basis before they
could withdraw their deposits, and this
picture shows the kind cf money they

WHICH SIDE ARE YOU ONT
Some Test Questions For Undecided voe'
ers.

Are You opposed to o sudden contrac-l
ton in the volume of money now In
use? A free coinage law would immedi-
ately drive out of circulation over $780,
600, 900 in gold.
Do you believe III q stable measure OF
values which shall be fair to both debtor
and creditor? The Is to 1 scheme would
put this country on a iuctuating silver
basis.
Have you money in the bank or loaned
out to any one? Free silver would cut
the value Of your savings in two.
Are you prepared to abandon the
monetary standard which is used by all
the great commercial nations Of the
world and adopt that Of India, China
and other cheap labor countries? II not,
you should protest against free silver.
Do you believe that commou honesty
demands that debts contracted in 100
cent dollars should be paid In money
worth as much as that which was bor-
rowed2 Free coinage means the repudia-
ton of one-half of all obligations.
Do you know Of any way in which
nen who are nov poor can get rich hon.
estly, except by hard work. II not, you
should condemn the quacks who are
promising tie people to make them all
rich by legislation which will debase
the currency.
Would you like to see capital album
dant and interest low? Money is far
more plentiful and interest rates are
lower in gold standard nations than in
the silver using countries.
Do you consider it important to the
interests Of trade and industry that there
should be nc uncertainty in regard to
the basis Of the country's s finances? Then
you must oppose the senseless agitation
which is checking the investment Of
capital and depressing business.
Would you like to see the purchasing
power Of the workingman's wages cut
down one-half by a currency law which
should declare that 30 cents worth Of
silver was a "dollas?" Under free coin
age this country would have silver mono
metallism, with doubled prices for ev-
erything the workers buy.
Are you willing to bring on q finan-
cial panic, caused by the calling in Of
loans through fears of free silver repu-
diation, merely for the sake Of trying
cheap money experiments which have
always resulted in disaster? II not, and
il you want an honest dollar and pros
perity, you should work and vote against
all attempts to debase the currency

Not Certain That Fire VIM nurn.

In 1890 silver initiation was author
lied. AS a result, in 1898 there was a
financial collapse, The country has not

upon a renewal Of their wild expert

would obtain. 1t will not be the fault
Of the bank officers If the banks are un-
able to return as good money a. they
received. They have loaned the banks
funds out at interest and, except in cases
where officers have suspected the honest
intentions Of their country and inserted
the gold clause in mortgages, the banks
themselves will have TO accept depreci-
ated dollars in return for the full value
dollars loaned. They viii, therefore,
have only cheap dollars to return to
their depositors. These depositors, then,
are the real creditor class Of this u
try. Instead OF being few and wealthy
there are over 10, 600, 900 of them hav-
ing deposits in all kinds Of banks and
in building and loan associations, and
their average per capita deposits are
only $500. This country will not 90 10
a silver basis without the consent Of q
large portion of these depositors If they
do vote TO put it on a silver basis, sew
eral millions of them will be kicking
themselves the next morning after they
find ont what they have done.
