A FLOOD OF SILVER.
A Great Bugaboo Effectually Dis
posed Of
Plenty of Room Here For All OF the Sur
plus Silver of the
World.

One OF the most deceptive, and at the
same time most ridiculous contentious
which silver men have to meet, is the
one that under free coinage of silver"
and consequently ruined.
Truly the exigencies of the gold peo-
pie must be very great when, in order
to defend their new system, they are
forced to paint terrifying pictures of a
mighty nation in ruins because of too
much silver money.
Here we are with money standard
under which the producer is obliged to
sell twice as much OF his product as
formerly in order to get Il dollar with
which to pay taxes and debts. In
stead OF getting the dollar with one
bushe OF wheat, two bushels are re.
quired.
The gold champion deliberately ut.
Temps to make him believe that ii
wheat should again rise to 81 per bdshel
he would be ruined, and the most amaz-
ing thing about it is that some farmers
have been made to so believe.
Low prices have been the burden OF
their complaint for 20 years, and yet,
whenever the free coinage OF silver is
mentioned, they AIRY coolly assured that
higher prices would subject them to un-
told calamities. And that is all that
cheap money means-higher prices.
"Cheap money" and "eheap goods" at
the same time are an impossible com
bination.
Ii money is "cheap," it means that
it will buy less goods. II goods are
Cheap" it means that they will bring
less money. The idea OF the money
and the goods that are to be exchanged
for each other both being cheap is as
absurd as the idea OF two men being
stronger than each other, or weaker
than each other.
Ii a food OF silver should come, and
1t should be Cheap" then prices would
rise just in proportion to its cheapness,
and rise OF prices is what every pro.
ducer is longing and praying for.
But would there be a flood2 Ii so,

III Is coined at tie rate ol SERi2 per
ounce, and is AT par WIN gold.
To recoin it Mt the American mint at
l6 to !, l. e., $l.29 per ounce, would
involve loss OF 3 per cent, amounting
to about $50, 100000, in the aggregate.
And after sustaining the loss OF $50, ,0OO,'
600, the Frenchmen, the Italian and
the Belgian would find himself in pos
session OF American silver dollars which
he could not use except in America.
The idea OF European nations doing
such thing is too prepos e'ou, for Sc
rious consideration. Silver in the form
Of ware is worth more than its weight
in coin. Hence it would not be melted
down.
Under free coinage the bullion, as it
comes from the mines, is all we would
have to deal with.
In 1894 the total product Of silver
bullion is placed by the mint director
at 1877, ,752, ,56l fine ounces. The colnagcs
of the different countries ior years are
given at S7,472,523 ounces, and the
amount used in the arts at 20,7Bl,74l
ounces, leaving 59,4lS,42i unaccounted
/ for.
As it is impossible to locate half that
amount, it is probable thai the estimates
OF coinage and use in the arts are consi-
derably too low. But. as an outside
figure, it would only leave 60,000,000,
ounces to he absorbed and used by the
/ United States.
How such an amount tn rown into our
currency could possibly flood the count
ry-ihat is, do it any harm, gold stan
dardists have never attempt to explain.
Until they do, it is scarcely worth while
to waste much time upon it.
But they tell us that the silver dollar
will only be worth 80 cents. There are
to answer to this: First, us already
shown, the very essence OF the trouble
is that the gold dollar has become in ri.
ieet, II 20J cent dollar, That Is, it will
exchange ior about twice us much oi
products as it would in 1873.
Secondly, the silver dollar OF Mexico
or Japan will now buy as much OF our
great staples as the gold dollar would in
that year. Hence, the so cent dollar
$50 calledl is only such when measured
by gold.
Ii the results should follow which the
goldite processes to fear, namely. that
the silver dollar'would only be worth
30 cents in god then the situation
would be just this: The farmer, in.

where would it come from?

where would it come from?
According to the mint report for 1895,
the total amount OF silver coin in the
world is $4,O7O, 100000.
The population of the United States
is estimated at 70,400,000. Therefore,
if all the silver coin in the world were
to be dumped" into the United States,
we would have little less than $58 per
head.
1t does seem as ii we might manage
to stagger along even under that load.
Ii some people should happen to think
that $58 in silver were too much for
them, there is no doubt that others
would be willing to take little more,
and thus patriotcally avert the "ruin"
OF the cir country.
But let us consider a little farther.
How much OF this silver would be likely
to come here?
In his testimony before the Coinage
Committee in 1891, MIR. Fredrick Fraley
the iather of Pennsylvania finance and
president OF National Board OF Trade,
although gold man, admitted frankly
that foreign silver coin would not come
here because no nation had any more
than it needed.
He WAS undoubtedly right. OF the
total silver coinage, S63l ,200,0 is in
subsidiary coin struck at ratios ranging
from to 1890 in Russia up to to l5.-
6S in Egypt. That is to say, right
where it is it is worth from $l.32 to ST.
80 in gold per ounce, Aside from the
fact that it is all needed forsmall change
where it is, it would be monumental
stupidity for the owners OF it to melt it
down, and send it to the American
mint to be coined at loss OF to 30 per
cent.
The full legal tender silver outside
the United States amounts to $3.50
100000, OF this, $9]O,O)0,O)O in India,
$750,O00, 900 in China, $llj,OOOOOO in
the Straits Settlement, and S6S,00O,0 ,00C
in Japan, making 81 1888, 100000 in those
countries.
Not a dollar OF that silver is likely
TO ever find its way to the United States
Those countries contain nearly 500, ,000,,
900 OF people, and they only have $2,5(
in silver for each person, and no golC
money at all.
The full tender silver coin OF Europ,
may he placed at about $1,000, $1,000
and the population at nearly 100000,
600. So that continent also hal
about $2,5Oper head in full tender silver
