Wheat and Silver,

A local organ published daily in the
! interest of Wall and Threndneedle
streets is still actively engaged in try
ing to prove that the average prices
for wheat and silver since 1873 have
not borne any relation to each other.
1t decries the idea that two commodi-
ties bear any relation as to market
price, and then seeks to prove it by
quoting market prices during the time
when one of the articles was not
commodity. Beginning with 1920 it
quotes the average price of wheat and
cotton down to the year 1870, showing
great fluctuations from time to time.
Then it points to the fact that during
all those years silver remained at
practically the same price despite the
fluctuations in the price of wheat and
cotton.
The local organ of Wall and Thread
needle streets has at last allowed itself
to acknowledge the truth of one of the
great claims of bimetallists. 1t admits
that when silver was used as primary
money metal its price did not fuctuate
materially, but always lowered close
to the mint price established by law.
During the years between 1920 and
1870 silver was not a commodity, and
of course its price was not fixed in the
commodity markets. The local gold
organ admits this, though of course
unwittingly, The very fact that sill
yer held to a regular price during all
the years when the minis were open to
it and then began to fluctuate like
wheat and cotton when it become a
commodity is proof enough to convince
any reasonable man that its former
value was fixed by law. When silver
became a commodity its price fell just
as the price of any other commodity
would fall if legislation destroyed one
half of its market. Just because wheat
ana cotton went up and down and sill
yer remained stationary from 1920 to
1870 will not explain why wheat and
cotton and silver havo maintained the

Given Their Case Away.

A sample of Republican inability to
grasp an argument is the B. w. Snow
circular being sent out from the Hanna
headxuarters in this city. It. submits
a table to show that the decline in the
price of wheat is due, not TO the fall in
. the value of silver bullion, but to the
competition that has grown up since
1874 from Russia, India and Argentine.
The table shows that India and Argen-
tine have entered the field as COMPETE
ton with the United States since 1873,
and that Russia'a expectation since
that date have been increased about
100 per cent. All that is lacking to
make the circular good silver cam.
paign matter is the addition of para
graph calling attention to the fact
that but for the fall in the price of
silver bullion Russia never could have
increased her exports, and India and

same average relative value ever since
the time they became great trio Of

Bankers Logic.

Among the resolutions of the Bank
ers' Association at st. Louis the fol-
lowing paradox appears:
We believe that before the m:nts
could begin to'coin silver every dollar
of gold would disappear from circula-
ton, thus violently contracting our
currency, and that the value of the re-
naming dollars would be the bullion
value of the silver in them, measured
by the gold standard of the chief
money markets of the world.
The two propositions contained in
the foregoing are;
l. The passage of free-coinage bill
would, before the minis could be
opened, drive all the gold out of the
country and contract the currency to
that extent.
2. Such contraction would reduce
the value of the silver dollar to the
present bullion value, say fifty-three-
cent dollars.
The only reason given by Secretary
Carlisle and the gold standard frater-
nifty why the present silver dollar is on
a par with gold is the limited quantity
of our silver coins, They said; "If the
present limitation were removed and
mints were opened, the quantity of
silver coined would so increase the
volume of money as to reduce the
value of the silver dollar forty-seven
cents and make it ffty-three cont
dollar" They now say this same re-
suit would be produced before there
could be dollar of silver coined, be-
cause gold would leave the country
and violently contract the currency.
They affirm that such contraction
would diminish the purchasing power
of the dollar to the same extent that
the initiation would after the minis had
coined all the silver brought to them
for such purpose. The two PROPOSE
tions contained in the resolution above
quoted are: That the coinage of silver
would increase the quantity of circula-
ton and by that means make dollars
cheaper; and that no coinage of silver,
but mere threat to do so, would pro-
puce violent contraction by driving all
the gold out Of the country and by
that means make fifty-three cent dol
lars. In other words, the bankers say
that expansion and contraction of
currency would have precisely the same
effect upon the value Or purchasing
power of dollar.
What more evidence do the Ameri-
can people want Of dishonesty, duplic-
ity and cheek of the Bankers Associa-
ton than the resolutions above quoted?
Making allowances for the ignorance
of American bankers, who allow Euro
pean bankers to do their thinking, we
cannot believe that there is a banker
in the whole American Association
who does not know that the resolu-
tions above cited is absurd, contradic-
tory, illogical and false, and that it
was Incorporated in the procee dings
of the convention on the supposition
that the American people are FOOLS

The prosperity Of American indus
tries depends upon higher prices for
silver bullion because our competitors
in foreign markets are silver standard
countries If the price of silver goes
up the prices of their products as
measured in gold, must go up too, and
our exports will be able to command
higher price and still undersell them
in the markets of the world. But how
can we best elevate the price of silver
bullion? By kicking it out and dis
couraging its use as money as much as
we can, or by admitting it to free coin
age and helping along its restoration
as q money metal in tho commerce

you can best raise its price by dis
couraging its use. Which is the gold

save and buy father a silver watch and
mother a new shawl for Christmas
Sam was Is and l two years younger
and we were the sons Of farmer
who couldn't afford luxuries. We
couldn't hope to do it all by ourselves
though we did get enough together for
the shawl. Our uncles and aunts and
cousins Clipped in, and the jeweleT
threw off 81 on the price of the watch
and on the day before Christmas old
Santa Claus had the watch and shawl
and father and mother hadn't the slight
est suspicion of what was in store for
Them. Sam and had sold apples, EN-
beAzled eggs, disposed of old plow-
points, hoed corn for the neighbors,
gathered and sold hickory nuts and
worked various other schemes to get
that $12 shawl and we had right to
feel elated and proud. We had the arti-
cles hidden in the hay NOW at the barn,
and about once an hour we had to go
out there and take look at them.
1t was growing dark on Christmas
eve when a stranger on foot turned in
at our gate and asked for lodgings. He
was well-dressed, keen-looking man,
and the fact of his being on foot and
the village tavern only two miles away,
ought to have set father to thinking.
Mother eyed him suspiciously, butwhen
hA Ao -,ln I
that he expected to pay for his enter
tainment, father invited him in and ap-
peared to think that it was all right.
Not so with Sam and I, however. We
didn't like the looks of the man, and
when we discovered that he used pro-
fame language and chewed plug tobacco
we put him down as bad man. After
supper the man told father that he lived
in Cincinnati and had come to look at
farm on the Six-Mile road. He made
an effort to be entertaining and agree
able, and though he succeeded with the
old folks Sam and I couldn't give him
any credit.
There was a bedroom off the parlor,
and it was arranged that he should
sleep in there. Also that Santa Claus
should leave the gifts for father and
mother on the parlor table after he had
gone to bed. Sam and I would hang
our stockings in the kitchen. The man
excused himself about nine o'clock and
went to bed, and ten minutes laterthe
watch and shawl were on the table, and
mother had promised not even to look
in. We hustled off to bed, and by half
past nine father and mother came up.
do you s'pose that feller heard
about the watch and shawl?" queried
Sam, as we got into bed.
"HOw could he?"
II dunno, but believe he iust came
here to steal 'em. If he was goin' to
look at farm on the Six-Mile road WHY
didn't he get off the train at Grafton ?
III bet you he robs the house and clears
out before morning!"
Lets tell father!"
HE wouldn't believe it, and it would
only scare ma"
We talked the matter over for few
minutes and then fell asleep, and tho
old clock down in the kitchen was
striking IL when Sam nudged me
with his elbow and whispered:
"That fellow is robbing the house!"
"How do you know?"
