ounce. AS this silver is worth in the
market 66 TO 81 cents an ounce the mar
gin of profit is easily seen to be a very
heavy one-10 to 20 per cent.
Moreover. some of the mines represent
no actual investment whatever. Count
ing water" and all. the Elkhorn mine
has nominal capital of only 81 ,000, 600
1t has paid dividends amounting to ST.
212,O00. The Granite Mountain is nemi-
nally capitalized at S10,000,000. 1t has
already returned in dividends TO its
stockholders $12, 2,120.000. Other mines
show enormous profits on investments
that are largely fictitious.
Yet the multi-millionaires who own
these properties coolly ask the people of
the country to pay them incalculable mil
lions of additional profit by coming each
66 cents worth of their product into
$129 worth of legal tender money.
They ask the country thus almost ex-
actly to double to them the market price
of product already so profitable that it
pays them millions every year to produce
il.
age would do precisely this. 1t would
enable them to pay a dollar of wages
or debt with 81 cents worth of silver.
How far the process would enhance the
general value of the silver dollar no man
can know. But this much is clear:
Every penny OF the advance, be it much
or little. must be paid out of the peo-
ple's earnings. while every penny of the
difference between the new price of sill
yer and its mint price will represent so
much of robbery from creditors and toll
ers.
In brief. this great silver trust is a
conspiracy among a hundred or so multi
millionaire mine-owners to rob the pub
lie and to levy a tribute upon the wages
of everyone who works.
Is there any conceivable reason why
any workingman, any savings bank de-
positor, any holder of a life insurance
policy. or any other honest man should
vote for this rings programme?

ALADDIN'S LAMP OUTDONE.
Increase in Value Estimated
SI75,cooooo.
Appreciation on Other Products.

To these must be added an aggregated
appreciation of many millions on other
commodities. Pork, for instance. has ad-
vanced from its low point by $1.S5 a bar
rel. and ribs have advanced nearly a
cent a pound. Lard has gone ND llore
than 81 tierce Rye has been, ad-
vanced nearly 10 cents Il bushel. fiaXseed
10 cents and barley cents Cloverseed
mas scored an increase of $3.25 per nun
dred weight
The yearly sales of butter and eggs ex-
ceed IN cash value all the other products
of the farm. Butter has advanced 25
per cent and eggs 10 per cent The
price of cheese has risen % to so per
cent. White beans are 10 to 50 per
cent. higher. Most of these products are
in active demand in Europe. They are
pouri-,g across the sea in such streams
that there is not shipping enough to
move them promptly. Even Australia
and India are sending for the good things
of the American farm. The seas are
covered with regular liners and with
tramp steamers focking to American
shores for the rich freightage
Orchards Fall in Line.
But this list does not exhaust the
names of the staples that have scored
sensational gains. The American or
chard is coming in for n share of the
good times. To the list may be added
California dried fruits. such as raisins.
prunes, apricots and peaches, which have
gained from 10 to 30 per cent. and are
still going up. Canned goods, such as
tomatoes, corn and peas. now an impor-
tant part of the worlds food supply,
have shown material improvement in
prices. The average man may be blind
to the import of higher prices. because
of limited information. A slight adj
vance in the value of one or two articles
in which he may have personal inter
est may have little significance and
when there is such a general rise as is
now going on it requires compre-
hensive survey of the situation to grasp
the vastness of the addition to the value
of the products of the Chicago
Times Herald.

Americans are in the midst of Il mar
velous era. Several hundred million dol
lars have been addeS 10 the value of
American products i'll the last ninety
days. The magic of Aladdin is tame by
the side of the sober truth of modern
trade. The widest dreams of the apos-
ties of fiatism pale into insignificance in
comparison with the simple fact of to-
day. Nature is making money for
Americans faster than any printing
press could do it. The rise in the prices
of the products of American farms
means the beginning of prosperity that
needs only the success of the honest dol
lar at the November election to Suaran-
tee its permanence.
Most of the chief farm products share
in the advanced prices. Most of these
commodities are being exported in vnor-
nous quantities. and in exchange Amer
lea will get European gold. No one can
say truly how much has been added to
the wealth of Americans by the rise, but
few figures will give the reader an ink
ling of the mighty force at work for

WHY BUSINESS SUSPENDED.
A Bit of History Which VIII Interest Ev r.
Worlxingman

Workingmen who are wondering why
the factories of the country are furnish
ing so ltti pmeolelmyatne BIZ agsaisa
ing so little employment and paying such
low wages will, perhaps, be interested in
the following table which shows the val
ue of certain lines of manufactured goods
imported into the United States during
the first year of the Wilson law. COM
pared with the quotations in the last
year of the Mckinley law. Ii will be
seen that in every case the importations
increased enormously. and when it is re-
membered that all of these goods are of
class that can be manufactured freely
in the United States. it will not be sur
prising that the factories of this country
have been compelled 10 close down or
reduce the wages paid to their employees.
A comparison of the first calendar year
under the Wilson law is made with the
last fiscal year of the Mckinley law, the
purpose being to place side by side the
importations of the two complete official
years which most nearly touch the date
at which the Wilson law Went into eff
feet:

Mckinley to the Wool Growers.

Major Mckinley made a telling
speech yesterday to the wool growers
of Ohio. 1t elected enthusiastic ap-
plause, and the sturdy wool growers
went home with unbounded conf
dence in William Mckinley as the
great champion of the peoples cause.
and with an increased determination
to place him in the executive chair,
where he can do the most good for
the people and The nation.
William Mckinley has established a
permanent reputation for effective
campaign .oratory. His set speeches
have always ranked high for excel
lence in both matter and manner, but
he has shown himself in this cam
paign capable of versatility and IA
cility of popular elOquence rarely
equaled and never surpassed. While
covering a wide field Of discussion,
taking up in turn every phase of the
difficult and complicated issues now
before the country, he has employed a
style of utterance and argument of
such transparent simplicity as to en-
gage the attention and enlist the sym.
pathieS and convictions of his hearers.
His opponents have not been able to
find single flaw in his armor. He is
clad in the impenetrable steel of an
honest cause and a noble purpose.
This was especially exemplified in
his eloquent and effective speech OF
yesterday The assembled farmers
will not soon forget these ringing
words:
1T was said that if we opened up this
country to the free use of the wool of
the world the farmers would be bene
flied. 1t was done, and with what
benefit you know better than l can
tell you. Now they tell you that more
free silver is the panacea for all yOul
ills. And you have the same money il
circulation now that you had four years
ago; but your wOol-growers have moi
got as much of it as you had then
AS free wool degraded your industry
so free silver will degrade your mon
ey. You have already been f1eeced by.
loss on your fiOcks, and you don't pro
pose to be tieeced further by loss OF
your money"
There is a volume of meaning il
these few plain but pointed references
to the relation of free trade and fret
silver to the welfare of the farmer.
The wool growers of the country can
not forget that they have lost about
s46. 100000 since the repeal of the Nc
INinley tariff.-N. Y. Mail and Express.

Great Natural Demand for the Cereal, but the

foreign trade estimates. from last years
crop being more than 100.C00.O00 bush
els. Last year the total crop was more
than 535,000.000. This year Thoman
estimates it at 435.000.OOO. The main
loss has been outside this country. so
that the demand for our wheat abroad
has been exceptionally heavy. Brad
streets reports total exports of wheat
and flour for last week at 4,215. I94 bush
els tthe largest since September. 1898,
against 3.930.466 the week before and
2.613,SI;6 in the corresponding week last
year. Here is an increase over last year
of 1.GO1.92S bushels. In the month of
SeDtemher we exported 1.511.727 bush
els: i'll September. 1895. 10 0113.S91, an
Increase of 5.39f.S30 bushels. This will
explain to everyone except chuclle-head-
ed idiots why wheat has risen.
No Manipulation.
There has been no manipulation about
il. In fact. the spectators have been
positively dazed at the advance. An
other thing which has indirectly made
wheat rise is the fact that the export
1t has been found impossible to
send all that was required. All the
trelEh! room on European steamers has
been engaged up 10 January.
The explanation of the decline in silver
Is as easily accounted for as the rise in
wheat. Soon after Bryan's nomination
the free-silver shOuters kicked up such
a rumpuS that spectators both here and
abroad thought there was some chance
of his success. and silver advanced on
speculative buying to about 20 cents an
ounce. 1t was not long. however, before
the holders became convinced that Bry-
ans chances of success were hopeless,
and they mt once began to get rid of
their loads. Consequently. as more and
more holders of silver saw that they
had paid good price for white ele-
phant. and sickened of their bargain,
the price of silver gradually sank until
today it is quoted at 6tai cents an ounce
This is considerably lower than it was
early last summer. when it was thought
improbable that the DcnOcratic party
would come out fat-fOoted for the free
coinage of silver.
The day will come when Mr.. Bryan
and his ilk will learn that natural causes
alone govern the prices of all products

RISES
WHEAT
WHY

While silver for weeks has been drop
ping practically without interruption
from about 40 cents an ounce to less than
90 cents, wheat has been shooting up as
if it had wings.
1t is peculiarly interesting at this time.
when Mr.. Bryan and the other soon-to-
be-snuffed-out lights of the free-silver
hereSy have been cramming variety of
pleasing tictions down the throats of
farmers. TO call attention to the practical
ly simultaneous rise i'll wheat and drop
i'll silver.
Probably the free-silver folk will say in
regard to the remarkable rise in wheat
about II cents bushel in IL month:
What did we tell YOU: It's as clear as
daylight: everybody knows that free sii-
yer will succeed. hence they are buying
wheat now. as 1t will go to dollar ut
least after Mr.. Bryan'S election That'S
why Europe is buying such quantities of
wheat
Won't Work Both Ways
If this is the free-siiver argument for
the advance in wheat. why is it that Eu-
rope Is not buying silver 1T G44 cents an
ounce If Mr.. Bryan's election will raise
its price to S1.29:
Mr.: Bryan's contention has been that it
was impossible for wheat TO rise as long
as the gold standard prevailed Mr..
Bryan knew as well as any of lis that
he was lying when he said that. What
does he say about it now. His silence
on the subject is most expansive Posi-
bly, he is racking his brains to account
for IT., and II is probable he may get off
something equally illuminating as his ex-
planation of the gold import movement.
The fact is, this advance in wheat.
wholly due as il is to natural causes.
Is a stunning blow Ia the free silver
fallacy. 1t is useless 10 tell the farmer
that he cannot get more for his wheat
WhlIe we remain on Il gold standard.
when he is receiving 10 cents n hnSbei
more for 1T than he was month ago
considering that this has been one of
the stock arguments of the free silver
ties: 1t is well to point out again and
again Just why wheat has advanced.
1t is all summed up in this: The crops
here and abroad have been short. the
total decrease for the world, according to

ARTICLES.

1t will be seen that the total importa-
ton of these ten classes of articles alone
in the first calendar year under the Will
son law, were nearly one hundred mil
lion dollars more than in the last fiscal
year under the Mckinley law. This
means nearly one hundred million dollars
sent out of the United States to pay for,
eign workingmen. while American work
men are thus left without employment
and without earnings. Had these hun
dred million dollars been distributed
among the American workingmen in
stead of going to those of foreign coun-
tries, the situation in the United States
would be vastly different to-day.
