No man who had silver in London
or New York would take less than he
could get at the French mint minus
cost Of transport. This is the reason
that at the time silver was demone-

We did at our ratio Of 16 to 1.

The final decree has been promul-

Greek nation, as It has been handed
down by Judge Adams, chief justice Of
the supreme court Of the nation. in the
citizenship case. 1t strikes from the

the names Of over LOO negroes. The
decision holds that the action of the
Indian council, after the passage Of
the emancipation act by the United
States, in admitting the negroes to
tribal relations, was unconstitutional,
and therefore at this time invalid. Since
the passage of the act these negroes
have drawn in annuities 81 0O0, 900 from

tons of official trust, and have i'm

twenty years. From the decision of the

Q.-what do we give in exchange for
the imports noted in the above tables!
A.-The products of our farms and
our factories.
Q.-But in cases where the exports
exceed the imports, what do We receive
to make the balance good?
A.-Nothing whatever.
Q.-That's queer. How do you &C
count for It?
An this way: We owe a fast for
eign debt Of 5000, OOO, 900, the interest
on which must be paid annually. When
our exports exceed our imports the bal
ance in our favor goes towards paying
off our interest on our foreign debt.
Q.-Is our excess of exports annually
sufficient to pay interest on our foreign
debt?
A.-No, not by far; our interest
amounts to $3.50, 000, 900 annually in ex-
cess Of exports.
Q.-How do we pay the interest?
AIN gold.
Q.-Where do we get the gold?
Ave borrow it.
Q.-Cite an instance.

government has borrowed $262, 900 900
in gold from foreign countries with
which to pay the interest on our for

Q.-Wasn't that S262, 200, 900 for the

Apparently, yes;, but IL you will
remember that almost as soon as the
various bond issues were effected the
gold received was quickly withdrawn
from the treasury by holders of green
backs who wished to send the money
abroad in payment of interest on for
eign debts.
Q.-How does this country hammer
to owe such vast sum abroad?
A.-Neariy all our largest industries
are owned by foreign capital. The
earnings must be paid annually.
Q.-Can We ever recover these in
dustries?

Why has silver deprecated to 90
cents In the dollar?" and how can the
law restore it to a 100-cent dollar?
A witty Jew once said in my pres
ence that Moses got up the first corner
on beef Of which history gives an ac-
count. He bought up all the beef cat
tie and then passed a law forbidding
the people to use swine's flesh and
made millions out Of the rise OF beef"
Even a ten-year-old boy ought to see
up and bacon down. Not that the law
directly fixes the value Of either, but
by destroying the demand for one and
increasing the demand for the other.
While law cannot fix values 1t can
create or destroy either demand or sup
ply.
For untold ages prior to 1873 all the
great commercial nations used two
metals as redemption money Except
England for a short time). One was
gold and one was silver. In 1878 and
1874 the great nations destroyed silver
as redemption money. Thus was de-
stroyed the almost unlimited demand
for silver for this purpose, and inoreas-
ing the demand for gold. OF course
and inevitably, under the law Of de-
mand and supply, silver went down
and gold went up, and now gold-stand-
ard men take advantage Of this neces-
sary result of their own wrong to dis
credit silver. And during all the ages
that both metals were used az re-
demption or real money their rela-
tive values, no matter what their rela-
tive supplies, did not vary more
than three points, while during the
twenty-three years since the demand
for silver was cut down their ratio has
changed from 151k to 1 to 81 to 1.
All that is necessary to restore their
ancient ratio is to restore the ancient
demand for silver as redemption money.
