Col John A. Cockerill has been writ
ing to the New York Herald some very
entertaining letters from Japan the past
few months. He is regarded by all who
know anything about him, as reputable
man, consequently his last letter from
that country is very significant. Japan
is on Il silver basis. She has frequently
been referred to by the free coinage advo-
Gates as an object lesson for this country
to heed. They have said "Look at
Japan's prosperity. She buys for gold
and sells for silver. She is prospering
marvelously and is invading the markets
of the world and will drive the gold
countries to the WALL The actual state
of affairs as pictured by Col. Cockerill are
the reverse of all this. Although Japan
her recent war with China, she is today
badly depressed financially and it is said
an attempt to go to gold standard now
would result in universal bankruptcy
The trouble began when her silver dollar
or yen, commenced to depreciate as it
inevitably must under existing condi-
tons. With this depreciation came de
moralization A clamor was raised for
greater wages. The fifty cent dollar
would buy but fifty cents worth and the
wage worker must have more wages in
order to live as he had done 1t is either
more wages or cheaper living and cheaper
living means less consumption, less trade,
less money and financial distress. In the
light of common sense and such examples
rs this the United States would not de.
serve, as a nation, to rank as high in the
scale of civilization as Japan should she
now adopt the 16 to l free coinage plan.
