At last one honest free silver man has

At last one honest free silver man has
turned up in this country. He writes
to the New York World and signs his
name to his communIcation-M. r
Madison, OF Gates, New York-telling
that he Is 10 favor Of free silver because
il will reduce wages. Here is his letter:
One Of the strongest reasons | have
for voting for Bryan and free silver is
that it will reduce wages similar tc
other countries .adhering to the silver
standard.
In this country wages have not de-
clinsd. The farmers. manufacturer and
merchant are called upon to pay higher
wages than We can afford to pay to CON-
pete with the countries having silver
for standard. Food and clothing have
declined 50 per cent, but wages have not.
Free coinage Of silver is what this
country should haye to bring down the
price OF labor Then We can buy two
days labor FOL the present price Of one.
This will give us a chance to compete
without loss.

Major Mckinley 10 his masterly intro
duct'on to the great work on the tariff,
Protection and Prosperity" says:
The world knows Of the wonderful
progress We have made. The experience
OF the United States IN d.,ersify,n9 in-
dustries and developing it's home mar-
ket mas contributed mure or less To the
growing disregard for the maxims II
schoolmen aud theorists and Increased
the value Of the uniu.peachable testi-
mony Of trade and experience.
The scope Of Mr.. Curtiss' work practi-
cally covers the history Of the worlds
trade and commerce. The author has
undoubtedly devoted years of patient
research to gathering and arranging his
material and presenting his argument.
After careful examination of the re-
suits OF this stupendous piece OF work
the fairminded American stsdeut and
reaier will close the book with the con-
clusion that in our own American policy
We have nothing to take back, nothing
to apologize for. Under similar cond,-
ttons our experience has been precisely
this same as the experiences Of other pa
tons. In some ways it has even been
Ergiand's Own experience. A low tariff
or no tariff has always increased the im
portation Of foreign goods until our
money ran out; multiplied our foreign
obligations; produced balance Of trade
against the country; supplanted the do
u,sstic producer and man ufacture,; i'm
paired the farmers home market with
out improving his market abroad; under
m ned domestic prosperity; decreased
the industries OF the nation; diminished
the value OF nearly all our property and
Investments; and robbed labor Of it's inst
rewards. The lower the tariff the more
widespread and aggravated have been
these conditions which paralyze our pro-
gress and industries. This is the ysr-
dict OF our history, and, as the author Of
this valuable work demonstrates. with
clearness that should carry conviction,
ii has been the verdict Of history in the
case OF other natlons.if facts and figures
and he relied upon to point out such re-
suits.

III 1892 the home consumption of corn
in the United States was 3O33 bushels
per capita. In 1895 the home consump-
tion had fallen to 1858 bushels per
capita. In 1892 the home consumption
OF wheat was 5.9l bushels per capita. In
1894 it fell to 4S5 bushels and 10 1895
it was 1878 bushels per capita. In the
FACE Of such destructive results from
the abandonment of protection and
with no decrease in average production
the American farmer can well marvel
that prices for food products have not
been more nearly wiped out of existence.

If the silver dollar was such an I'M
portant factor in our currency prior to
1873 why are not some Of those silver
dollsrs found circulating now among
the people? In the year 1905 just 32l
silver dollars were coined, when JEFF
ferson ordered further coinage Of them
to cease. Not another silver dollar was
coined until the year 1886 when l.0O0
were coined-but not one in 1887 or in

1840 6l, ,OO5 were coined.

Taxes will Double.

VINO argues IN favor OF free silver, and
says it will pay 100 cents worth Of taxes,
debts, etc. i. e., without gong outside
the subject itself, and showing them it
is repudlatinn and swindling- which the
simon pure Popul,st admits and desres:"
Tell him the truth that taxes will
have to be doubled. II it takes a GER
tain sum in the present dollar to main.
tam municipal, county and state govern
ment, it will require double the number
OF dollars If the value Of the dollar is cut
IN two. And also you can advance an.
other truth-that, il Bryan should be
elected, and the Popocrats ge. major
Ity in congress, it would he eleven
months until the new congress will meet
and that from the day OF Bryan's elec
tion, every open account and debt
would be forced to settlement. every
matured mortgage be foreclosed. and
every man would endeavor to save him
self from the coming storm.
You might also call their attention tc
the fact that the official copy of the
Chicago platform has this clause inser
ted after the monetary plank.
"But 1t should be carefully provided
by law, at the same time that any
change in the monetary standard should
not apply to existing contracts"
IL that pledge is carried out, debts
will have to be paid on Il gold basis

According to Brother Stokes q

According to Brother Stokes state
ment the cause OF the low prices for
commodities is that We have not enough
money. We don't know SO much about
that. government statistics says that in
1873 We had sl5.5S per capita, and wheat
was sl.l5 per bushel, while in 1894 wheat
was 40 cents and the per capita sa4.s3.
ln 1873 oats was 81 cents and in 1895
they were 10 cents. In 1873 corn was
AZ cents and in 1895 it was 26 cents. In
1913 mess pork was 1886 per barrel,
and in 1885, 1t was ell9l. In 1873 il
coast 20 cents to transport u busbsl III
wheat from Chicago to New York: IN
1895 IT csast A. cents per bushel. Fron
the official statistical abstract Of 1893.
it seems that as the per capita OF money
increased, prices decreased.

Money Don't Regulate Values.

Does the 53-cent silver dollar rexu-
late the price Of wheat, corn and other
farm products, or is the price regulated
| by the 100 cent gold dollar? The silver
ties claim the silver dollar regulates the
price OF farm products"
The dollar Is our money unit; the
franc is the money unit Of France. Sup
pose an American farmer gets 80 cents
bushel for his wheat, and on the same
day the French farmer gets , francs &c
centimes per bushel; which gets the
higher price the man who gets half
the American money unit. or the man
who gets 2ls of the French money unit?
These expressions go cents" and "2
francs 30 centimes" merely the way
tie value of the wheat is stated. The
value is exactly the same the 80 cents
and the 21ls francs are equal, as ) francs
equal dollar.
Now, value Is not regulated in any way
by tine money unit. The value of wheat
in market depends entirely on supply
ard demand. Nearly ali countries raise
their own breadstuffs. The only ones
which do not RAISE enough for themsel-
YES are few countries in Western Eur
ope, India, South America, South Africa,
Tasmania, Australia, Canada and the
Uaited States all raise more wheat than
they can use. The surplus is exported.
The value of the exported surplus de-
pends on supply and demand, and the
kind OF money, or the volume OF money,
has nothing whatever to do with it.
No change in our currency laws could
raise the value of American wheat. by
passing law that half dollar should
hereafter ne called dollar. you can
double The price, but not the value. The
doubling of the price in that way is
merely halvIng of the moncy unit, and
would not affect values, nor would it
benefit apy one

Ii We are to have cheaper currency,
who knows how cheap it may get !
What was the value of the Continental
currency in the closing days OF the rev
olutionary war?
There is no limit when a currency
starts on the down grade. The Chicago
platform not only proposes tie 30 cent
dollar, but it goes further and advocates
paper money without limit. The result
would be inevitable collapse. The col
Onies issued some two hundred million
dollars OF Continental currency between
l715 and 1880 and none OF it was ever re-
deemed. In 1881 one thousand dollars
worth of paper money was worth ouly
one dollar in spscie! We have a n. .re
recent illustration OF the same result in
the currency of the late southern con
federacy, which was vaiueless at the
close of the war IL lessons OF history
are worth needing.

Value of Gold.
What would be the value OF gold, if
not used as money at all i. e., what
would be lis value in the arts?"
Your question is not clear. Do you
mean il all the people in the world would
cease to use gold at all for a medium OF
exchange! or do you mean if all laws of
all countries providing for the coinage
and legal tender Of gold should be re-
pealed?
Ii you mean the first, it is not sup
posable Csc. 1t is mere fancy. not
worth discussing.
If you mean the second, it would have
no effect whatever on the value OF gold.
Gold is not used as money because the
law provides for its coinage; it does not
get its value from legal tender laws.
Gold was used as money long, long be
fore there was any law on the subject !;
before coming was iuyented. 1t is used
rs money today in uncivillzed countries,
which have no laws ON the subject, and
it is just as valuable there as here. If
all laws were repealed, 1t would still be
used as money just as much as it is now.
II governments relinquished its coinage,
that right would fall to the people them
selyes. and gold would be coined by
private parties, as it was done in North
Carolina back in the ':}0's, and IN Cali
fornia and Utah in the SOS.
