THE DUMPING GROUND,

"The United States would be the
dumping ground for all the silver of
the world,' shouts the monometal-
list. Would that be calamity? :?
Wouldn't it be too bad if there
should be food of money in this
country? Why, if such a condition
of affairs should be brought about
the money lenders occupation would
be gone and he could no longer dish
out his honest dollars" at prem
ium OF from ten to forty per cent.
1t would be fearful calamity.
There would be money among the
people-silver money-money to
throw at the BIRDS Money would
be so plentiful and so cheap that it
would be Improbable to steal it.
According to our gold friends money
would be so cheap and so inconven-
lent to carry that people wouldrefuse
to accept it. They wouldn't want
TO be bothered with carrying it about.
But they never stop to explain
why this dumping process has never
been practiced on other silver using
countries They seem to be ignor-
ant of the fact that there are more
! people under the sun who use silver
money than gold 4. What would these
silver using countries do after they
had dumped their silver? Could
they get along without any medium
Of change
1t seems that this argument (?)
may very properly be shelyed along
with the remainder of the sound
money rot.

If labor is in such a deplora blo
condition in free silver Mexico, as is
claimed by our gold friends, then
why have we 10 Mexicans in this
country looking for job?' Had
you ever thought of this? Laborers
come from the gold standard coun,
tries of Italy, Germany, Russia and
Great Britain to this country to bet.
ter their conditions. What's the
matter with Mexico? The fact re.
mains that Americans are constant
ly drifting into Mexico to seek both
the investment of capital and the
chance to earn a living by labor.
There is TO slack of confidence in
Mexico. The confidence men
haven't got control of that country.

AN OBJECT LESSON.

-Four quarts make one gallon;
eight gallons make one bushel. " Sup
pose you had contracted to pay debt
of one hundred bushels one year after
date. Suppose that by some dark
lantern" arrangement it was declar-
ed that sixteen gallons make a bush
ell, and that it was demanded of you
to pay Your debt in the newly adopt
ed measure, what would you say?
Suppose you made kick. and be-
cause you kicked all the fellows who
were benefited by the new measure
would walk up to you and tell you
that you were wrong; that you ought
| to be honest; that you ought to main
tain your honor and credit; that you
ought to pay your creditor in the full
est and largest measure possible,
what would you say?
This is the question before the
American people today. Shortly
after the revolution we contracted 4
debt with England on basis of 81
grains of silver to the dollar. Since
then England, by the grace of Johr
Sherman, has succeeded in arranging
matters so that it takes more thar
200 grains of silver to be worth ;
dollar. What do you say? Shal
we submit to the new arrangement
or shall we pay the 37l} grains dol
lar, as contracted? If pe pay tht
newly arranged 100 grain dollar We
will have the satisfaction of being
called ''honest" by the benefciaries
If we pay the 371I grain dollar, as
agreed, then we will be branded IRE
pudiators. anarchists, social
lists, etc. What do you say?
| Compared with other products ant
property, 371l grains of silver il
worth as much today as it ever was
| 1t will buy as much of your corn
wheat, labor, etc.-but it won't bu.
as much gold. Neither will you
products. Compared with other pro
ducts, 232 grains of gold has doubled
in value and will buy twice as mucl
OF the products of labor as whel
both silver and gold were redemp
tion money. In other words, W.
must give up twice as much of TIT
products of our labor in order t.
obtain the dollars with which ou
debts are now made payable. Al
measured in silver and other pro
ducts they are 200-cent dollars
these gold dollars that we never SCI
any of,

THE more money we have in circu-
Sation the higher will be the price of
everything we produce. The amount
of money in existence regulates the
value of all other things. The scare
ity of money causes all other property
TO command a low price. BY in
ereasing the supply of money we de-
crease its purchasing power. By de-
ereasing the purchasing power of
money we increase the purchasing
power OF our products.
