A COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER ON
THE SITUATION

Mr.. George NJ. Boarman a CONNER
cial traveller, formerly of Hartford
county, who has Just returned to Bal
timore from a trip through West Vir-
ginia and portion of Ohio, declares
it is mistake to suppose that the
silver sentiment is OH the wane. On
the contrary it is increasing daily, he
thinks. There are some advocates of
the gold standard in the towns but in
the country nearly every farmer and
storekeeper he met, Republican or
Democrat, is for free silver. AS an in
dication of the popular sentiment he
gives list of newspaper sales at a
news stand in Clarksburg, West Nir
ginia, given him by the proprietor,
who told him he could draw his own
conclusions:

HIGHER PRICES.

We find much said of late about the
effect that the free coinage of silver at
the ratio of 16 to would have on the
laborers or wage earners. The wage
earners are told by those who oppose
Mr.. Bryan that if prices go up, they
will have to pay those advanced
prices for the articles they must buy,
and consequently they will be worse
off than they are at present.
The arguments that are used are
arguments against better times, for
all will admit that better times is only
another way of expressing advanced
prices for various articles including
labor and the things produced by la
Dor. If the laborer and wage Garner
is afraid of higher prices, then he is
afraid of better times.
There is an inter-dependence and
relation between employer and EN-
ployed that cannot be overlooked in
any sound discussion of the question.
If times get better and prices higher,
the employer can afford and will pay
better wages. But even if wages do
not rise as suddenly as the prices Of
articles which the wage Garner must
buy, yet the benefit to labor is still
very great. Thousands will be EN-
ployed when prices are higher and
sales brisk who are to day idle. This
is a factor too often overlooked. To
the man with fat job perhaps the:
immediate rise of price of articles
which he consumes would place him
temporarily in a worse position than
at present but that would only be for
a short time, till wages would seek the
level of the higher plane OF prices.
But to those who are out of employ
ment, or who are ground down to
bread and butter wages, the rise in
prices would be an immediate relief.
Wages will seek the the level of
prices. Molasses, as we'll as water
will seeks its level. The one is slower
in motion than the other, but none
the less certain.
Take the case of farm labor to-day.
Is it not fact which the experience of
every farmer will bear out that the
wages paid for farm labor to-day have
not yet fallen to the level of the great
slump in prices of farm products dur
ing the past eight years. Yet they
must come to the lower point gradual
ly unless farm products increase in
price.
The argument that is put up against
the free coinage of silver, that it will
raise prices, is an argument for, and
not against it. Any evils which it
will bring, will be present during any
transition from hard times to pros
porous times.
Let those who discuss this question
at least be fair in the matter. We
want better times. All agree to that.
Then why oppose prosperity with ar
guments which are seemingly plausi-
BILE, but which are in fact wholly mis-
leading.

DIFFERENT NOW.

The Ne1c York San was not always
as it is now. In June, 1885, that news
paper, now devoted to gold mono
metallism, expressed views of this
sort:
"Gold has risen so that the proper
way of expressing the truth is to say
that the gold dollar is worth III cents,
while the silver dollar remains at
par.
THE prompt adoption of silver as a
standard instead of gold would, there
fore, arrest the decline in prices to a
great extent, and palliate, if it did not
cure, the evil of dull trade"
But it is different now and every
man who holds the Suns old opin-
ions is an anarchist.
