WHAT The GOVERNMENT CAN DO
Ex-President Harrison ON the Powers Of
Government.

Ex-President Harrison on the Powers OF
Government.
l will tell you what this government
can do alone. 1t can fixits money unit.
1t can declare by law what shall be the
relative value of an ounce of gold and
an ounce of silver, but it cannot make
that last declaration good. 1t is unques-
tionably fully within the power of this
government to bring this country to a
silver basis by coming silver dollars and
making them legal tender. They can do
that. This government a say you shall
take one of those dollars in discharge Of
any debt owing to you for one dollar,
notwithstanding you may have loaned
gold dollars; but it cannot say, and
force its decree, if you should call out
the regular army and navy and muster
all our great modern ships and add the
militia, and put William ]. Bryan in
command of them-it cannot enforce
the decree that one ounce of gold is the
equivalent of sixteen ounces of silver.
Not only that, not France and England
and Germany can do that unless the
markets respond. Why? You may
make me take a silver dollar for a debt,
but if 1 have bought my goods at gold
prices you cannot make me give as many
yards of cloth for n silver dollar as I
have been in the habit of giving for a
gold one
If 1 have a gold dollar in this hand
and 4 silver one in that, and you declare
they are equal, and I can take that gold
dollar to a bullion broker and get two
dollars for it, 1 know it Is a lie. II L
have nothing but a gold dollar, and
sugar is 90 pounds for one dollar, I will
not give that gold dollar for 20 pounds
of sugar. I will take it around to a
broker and get two silver dollars for it
and get the 20 pounds of sugar and have
one silver dollar left. So it is, my
friends. We can of ourselves, of our
own wisdom, declare the unit of value.
We can coin silver freely, but we can
not make sixteen ounces of silver equal
to u ounce of gold unless it is. And it
is not unless the merchants take it 1t
that rate. That is where all this thing
comes in. 1t is trade, it is the merchant,
it is the man who exchanges and deals
in these things that fixes the relative
value, and if you do not take the value
he fixes the gold dollar will go back to
the gold vault and the gold will go out

in His New York Speech.
The Cape Girardeau Democrat. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.) 1876-1909, 1896-10-03
An Immutable Law of Demand.

1t is not merely the women who like
to buy things cheaply. No mi cares 10
pay anything more for an article than
be can help. Men who work for wages
or on salaries naturally desire that their
income shall go as far as possible in
the satisfaction of their wants. Farm
ers, too, in behalf of whom the plea for
high prices is most frequently made.
are not overload of paying big prices
for the things they buy. And they are
buyers as we'll as sellers. The whole
tendency of civilization is toward lower
prices and higher wages.
Talk about making an unlimited
demand for silver" by free coinage at
sixteen to one is folly. The amount of
silver money which can be forced into
circulation is strictly limited by the
needs of business. Free silver or no free
silver, the people will not use more of
the heavy and bulky silver dollars than
they do now.

The Free Coinage Problem

The Free Coinage Problem" is the
title of a penny magazine or pamphlet,
by Lewis ". Lembitz, of Louisville.
Ky. 1t contains one of the fairest and
best discussions of the money question
to be had at any price. 1t contains in
very brief space and in simple language
as much of the early history of money.
especially in this country, as is neces
sary to understand the present situa-
ton. 1t discusses in a logical. unbiased
and impartial manner the probable ef-
fects of the proposed free coinage legis-
lation upon all classes, and especially
upon farmers and ~wage-earners. Itpre-
sents a vivid picture of the present hard
lot of many farmers and shows what
kind of money will be for their best in
.tereSts.
This little 4s-page magazine contains
more of monetary history and facts.
and more Of sound argument, than
many books which cost 100 times it's
price. It makes it possible for any in
telligent laborer or farmer who can
spare one cent to become well informed
o n the money question before he casts
his vote. Ten or fifteen copies can be
ordered at once for ten or fifteen per-
sons. Otherwise it will cost two cents
to send one cent. Address Present Prob

1t is so easy that anybody might have
done it.
All hat is needed is that the gov
