Jevons and by all tbs French and
American economists. The appalling
effects of long continued contraction
and the almost marvellous benefits re-
sulting from a liberal increase in the
coin supply are thus beautifully sst
forth by Sir Archibald Alison in bis
history Of Europe: EThe two greatest
events that have occurred in the his
tory, Of mankind have been directly
brought about By contraction and,
on the other hand, an expansion Of the
circulating medium Of society. The
fall of the Roman empire, so long
ascribed in ignorance to slavery,
egotism and moral corruption, was in
reality brought about by decline in
the silver and gold mines Of Spain and
Greece, and, as if providence had in
tended to reveal in the elearest man
nef the influence Of this mighty agent
on human affairs, the resurrection Of
mankind from the ruin which those
causes had produced was owing to a
directly opposite set of agencies being
put in operation. Columbus led the
way in the career of renovation. When
he spread his sails across the Atlantic,
he bore mankind and its fortunes in
his bark. The annual supply Of the
precious metals for the use of the
world was tripled, before a century had
expired the prices of every species Of
produce were quadrupled. The weight
Of debt and taxes insensibly wore off
under the influence of that prOdigiOus
increase"

IT has been discovered that the forces
who are back Of the gold standard
movement have also an understanding
that all unions of labor are to be des-
troyed and wages reduced. To do this
the help of the federal executive is
needed and in case Mr.. Mckinley is
elected it is proposed to enlarge the
army to 25O,00O men to be used in
crushing and subduiDg the wage-earn-
@s Of the country. Such a scheme is
more dsmnable than treitoFism and
should be treated as such.

JOHN ). INGALLS, ON GOLD.
Says It Is the Most TreacherOus and Cow
ardiy OF All Metals,

Says It Is the Most TreacherOus and Cow
ardiy Of All Metals,
No enduring fabric of national pros
perity can be builded on gold. Gold is
the money of monarchs. Kings covet
it. The exchanges of nations are aft
ected by it. It's tendency is to aceu-
mulate in vast masses in the CONNER
cial centers and to move from kingdom
to kingdom in such volumes as to I'M
settle values and stir up the finances of
the world. 1t is the instrument of
gamblers and spectators and the ideal
of the miser and thief. The object of
so much alteration, it becomes naughty
and sensitive, and shrinks at the ap-
proach of danger, and whenever it is
most needed it always disappears at the
slightest alarm. 1t begins to look for
refuge. 1t flies through the nations at
war to the nations at peace.
War makes it a fugitive. No people
in great emergency ever found
faithful ally in gold. It is the most
cowardly and treacheFoUs of ali metals.
1t makes no treaty that it does not
break 1t has no friends whom it does
not sooner or later betray. Armies and
navies are not maintained by gold. In
time of panic and calamity, shipwreck
and disaster, it becomes the chief agent
and minister of ruin. No nation ever
fought great war by the aid of gold.
On the contrary, in the crisis of great
est peril it becomes an enemy more
potent than the foe in the field But
when the battle is won and peace has
been secured, gold reappears and
claims the fruits of VictOry.-John ].

European Silver Could Not Be Dumped Into Our
MINIS With Profit to Foreign Owners.

One OF the main arguments Of the godbugs that free coinage
of silver will cause all the silver of the world to be dumped upon
and cause regular food of worthless coin Two years ago the
publican party did not think that way They said then could not
be done AS proof this assertion reference made page 40 Of
the republican text book Of 1894 which reads follows
The silver of Europe coined ratio Of I54 whereas
American coinage at the ratio OF 10 and the bulk OF Eu
ropean silver has been many years. has probably lost
by abrasion Here dead loss of per cent every dol
lars worth of European silver to be dumped this country to
which be added freight and insurance But this is not all
The European could be offered minis The
tenth alloy which they contain would have be exacteda loss
of per cent and the extraction would another per cent
making loss and of not less then cents before the dump
reached mn the total loss every dollars worth OF European
silver brought here being not less than cents To put in
another shape foreign spectators in order dump European
silver mnts would be compelled sell for 6S cents the
silver that cost them dollar in gold"
An of coined silver in India equal $I37 in gold
that dollar there would contain but 38 grains OF pure silver
against Europe and 37I25 here Hence send the silver
of India here loss nearly cents would be incurred
