All but q small fraction of the indebted
ties, contracted in 1895 and 1894. In those
years the creditor loaned to the debtor on
the silverite theory, 2O0-cent dollars; in
the natural course of events, If he received
payment in the first six months of 1896 he
would receive dollars somewhat less than
those he had loaned. but what else than
swindling is 1t to compel him to receive
for the 200-cent dollars which he loaned
.1OO-cent dollars on the ground that dollars
were worth only 100 cents in 1873? Half
Of the great bulk of existing debts would.
on the silverites own theory, be stolen
from the creditors for the benefit of debtors
under the forms of law.
The Wolf and the Lamb.
The creditors who have loaned within the
last five years. including 90 per cent of the
class, when threatened with u depreciation
Of their dollar by half. in vain call attention
to the fact that If the dollar Of their debts
has appreciated at all, the amount is in
fnitesimal and justifies in no event a
greater reduction than that amount.
1t seems paradoxical to liken debtor
to wolf and a creditor to a lamb but
the situation strongly suggests the fable
In which the lamb was accused by the wolf
first of disturbing his drinking water,
though the lamb was downstream, and,
secondly. of insulting the wolf at a date
which the lamb showed was prior to his
birth; on the strength of which prenatal
insult the lamb was torn to pieces and de-
voured.
The free coinage debtor of SO says to his
recently contracted debt: You committed
against me the crime of 1873. BY that
crime you have fattened at my expense to
twice your original size. I will now Justly
proceed to tear you in two
Alas vainly pleads the youthful debt: :
"at the date you speak of 1 was not yet
born" T. w n
