A Dollars Worth Of
Silver in a Dollar.
BY 4. ]. WARMER.

Kindred to the notion of ''intrinsic
value" If not growing directly out of
this fallacy, is the platitude so often
heard, "Plt dollars worth of silver
in a dollar" Ii the value of the me tails
was intrinsic and did not depend on
the law of supply and demand, then
there might be some sense in such a
demand; but as the value of both these
metals depends on the law Of supply
and demand, and as demand for them
comes largely from monetary use, TO
ask them that given weight Of one
metal should have the same value
with monetary use, or the demand for
il for money, taken from it, that the
other has with the demand for it for
money doubled by the very act that
took away the demand for money from
the other, is SO manifestly impossible
that the wonder is that any intelligent
person should repeat it; and yet moth
ing is more often heard that this alb
surd claim, and that, to. from other
wise intelligent people.
1t ought to be manifest TO anyone,
and is TO everyone who understands
the most elementary principles of
money. that neither metal can possibly
have the same value, when denied
monetary use, or the right of mintage;
that is, with demand upon il for money
purposes taken away, as it would have
with the right Of free mintage, or the
right to be converted at the will Of the
holder into money. No one denies
that the chief value of gold arises
from the demand for it for money.
That demand is unceasing, is from
everybody: is "from everything for
this one thing" sis the sum of the de-
mand of all things for this thing
and this demand has been enormously
increased by taking from silver the
joint demand for money and doubling
il up on gold. This demand. until
silver was demonetized, was the chief
source Of the value of silver, as il is
and always has been Of the value Of
gold. Then after having taken none
tary use from silver aud concentrated
the whole demand for standard money
or gold, how utterly unreasonable to
require that the ratio of one metal to
the other, should be taken as their
true rati" as money IN other words,
