gold In other words, prices through
out the world will rise and WI at will
share in the general rise Every one
knows that large increase in the an
nubl wheat crop would result in
cheaper wheat; a large increase IN the
supply OF primary money will result
in cheaper money, that is. dollar
will buy less because there will be
more dollars. In the second place,
wheat is especially affected by legis-
lation hostile TO silver. India is our
great competitor in the Liverpool mar
ket In 1873 the Englishman would
buy an ounce Of silver for about sl.30
and exchange it for Indian wheat;
now he buys au ounce Of silver for
about 6s cents and exchanges it for as
much wheat as he did before. II In
dian wheat cost him 81 30 In 1873 IL
costs him only 0s cents per bushel
now
II the Englishmen can now buy 6s
cent wheat in India, he will not pay
us moro than 6s cents Until 1893
there had been no material change in
the level of prices in India SO that our
farmers suffered while the farmers of
India prospefed. Free coinage will
raise the price of silver bullion and
thus raise the gold value Of Indian
wheat Can anyone doubt that the
price OF our wheat viii rise under such
circumstances2
When the sherman law was passed
in 1890 silver rose to SL2l per ounce,
and wheat rose with IT, Secretary
Rusk pointed out this fact in the 1890
agricultural report The farmers OF
Germany and the farmers Of England
are demanding the restoration OF sill
yer, but IN both OF those nations the
d-ho,ding class is too strong The
battle must te fought in the United
! States.

INCONSISTENCIES OF GoLDnUeIs,

lN1ONsiSIENCIEs Of dbLbbi6iSm.
The Inconsistencies Of goldbug ar
ruments are the most astonishing.
Mr.. Yates is more nearly consistent
than most gold champions and more
nearly logical, but even Mr.. Yates ex-
posed himself to several attacks on
this ground.
For instance, after appealing to the
great law of supply and demand as the
hidden influence which controls all
prices aud all values, ne denies the
self-evident proposition that this
same law controls the price and value
Of money
Then, after declaring that an in
creased supply Of money by free and
unlimited coinage Of silver would not
raise the price and value of property,
he nevertheless ailirms that free coin
age of silver would results ia reducing
the purchasing power OF silver coin to
the bullion value.
This bullion value Of silver coin be,
however, admits would increase un.
der free coinage, providing production
of silver did not increase equally.
But he states that there would be
no increased demand for silver ard
leaves MS to wonder how there could
be an increased production II it were
not induced by an increased demand,
Some gold mon say free silver coin
age me On, a boom in prices amount
ing To inl uion. Others deny that
there would b4 any increase in prices,
Some say silver would enormously
advaulr in vilus so as to enrich the
silver minr owners, Others say the
price Of silver could not be affected by
law.
some say the whole world would
dump its silver upon our shores anC
exchange il for our products, which
means a great increase Of our exports
Others say silver coinage would dc
stroy our business relations with tn
rest of the world and isolate us.
Mr. Yates says it would force us t,
issue paper money others say it woul,
turn all our currency to silver.
Meanwhile the argument for fre
and unlimited coinage is plain, logica
and consistent. 1t gains adherent
every day. The change of sentimen
, is now going on SO rapidly as almos
: to amount to revolution.
, We can note it around as anon
I those we know, we read Of it in al
S parts Of the union, while in severa
T. states like Missouri Illinois, Iowa an
. Michigan 1t has become politica
tidal wave.

 The committee then rose and at 4:10 D. m. the house adjourned.
 The Senate.
 The senate listened today to two long speeches against the further issue of United States bonds and in favor of the use of silver money. The first was made by MT. Mills and the second by MT. Pef- fer.
 Mr Mills speech was bitterly denun- ciatory of the national banking system and was an arraignment of the financial policy of the president and of the secre- tary of the treasury, while MT. Peffer de- nied that there was any authority in ex- isting statutes for the issue of United States bonds. Although the Kansas sen- ator spoke for two hours and quarter, he did not conclude all that he desired to say, preferring to go on with the re- mainder of his speech tomorrow.
 On the same general subject joint resolution was introduced by MT. Pugh, being reproduction of what is known as the Stanley Matthews resolution, de- claring all government bonds payable, principal and interest, at the pleasure of the government in standard silver dol lars. MT. Pugh said that he would ask a vote on the resolution tomorrow with out debate, but subsequently, on account of the absence of several senators, he said he would not ask vote until Mon day.
 MT. Mills speech had for it's text his resolution offered in favor of the coinage of silver and for other purposes. MT. Peffer based his upon the house bond bill with the silver substitute reported from the finance committee.
 A bill heretofore introduced by MT. Allen,- populist of Nebraska, and then referred to the committee on foreign re- lations, to prevent United States citizens from accepting titles or patents of mo- bility from foreign nations was reported back today from the committee adverse ly and was postponed indefinitely.
 A joint resolution appropriating $75,000 to defray the joint expenses of locating the boundary line between Alaska and the British North American territory was pa assed.

MONEY GAINING GROUND.
He Lacks But Six Votes of Securing the Nom- inaton for Senator--A Desperate Ef-
 fort to Beat Him.

Jackson, Miss, Jan. 15.-The senatorial question continues the all absorbing topic and prominent men and politicians from all sections of the state are here in the interest of their favortes, Colonel Money continues the favorite being thirty-eight votes ahead and lacking only six votes of majority. It has often happened, however, that the foremost candidate for such high honors even when nearer the haven than Money, has been defeat ed. The late Major Barksdale, who rep resented Mississippi in congress back in the sos, came within four votes of being senator instead of Senator George and within six votes of being governor in place of Lowry Encouraged by these recollections, the opposition to Colonel Money are confidently predicting his de- feat, and the only obstacle in the way of It's accomplishment is that the field can not be concentrated on any candidate in the race. There is very strong under current for Governor-elect McLaurin and in case this deadlock Is prolonged until after his induction into office on the 21st there will be a stampede in his direction that cannot be stopped. It is charged that his friends are even work ing to that end and that the four or five votes he receives on every ballot are in- tended as reminders that he would ac- cept the trust If rendered. When the caucus assembled tonight a resolution was adopted by to l vote excluding everybody from the hall except members reporters and pages.
 The first ballot resulted: Money, "A Lowry, 72; Allen. 3s; Hooker, 10; Mc- Laurin 4--same as last night.
 On the ninth ballot Money received 79 votes, Lowry 4l, Allen 37. Hooker 2, Me- Laurin 4.
 The announcement was received with the widest enthusias sm on the part of the Money forces. He was within six votes of the nomination.
 The opposition moved an adjournment which WAS met by a storm of noes" and the roll call was demanded. resulting in victory for the anti-Money men, and the caucus adjourned amidst a series of yells It was evident that one or two more ballots would have resulted in the nomination of Colonel Money.
 Governor Stone received a telegram to- night from Gen. s. D. Lee president of the Agricultural and Mechanical college at Stnrkville, stating that a student named Rimes had smallpox. He was isolated a mile from the other students under charge of the county health officer, and little fear was felt of spread of the disease.
 The legislature has announced the vote cast at the November election as requir- ed by the constitution: McLaurin dem ocratic candidate for governor, received 46, ,873 votes, to 17,466 for Burkitt. the pop uIite candidate.

A Busted" Bank.

Minneapolis, Minn., Jan. 15.-The City bank this morning posted the following on it's doors: lowing to heavy with drawals of deposits and inability to col feet on notes, this bank is temporarily closed to allow the superintendent or banks to examine into its condition. The capital is $3OO, 900, and deposits December 13 were $5O0,0O0 No serious trouble is anticipated"
 Bank Examiner Kenyon was in Minne- apolis Monday, and at that time exam ined the condition of the bank. He ad- vised the officers not to suspend, as the bank was perfectly solvent according to his statement, even if less than 75 per cent were collected on the paper 1t holds. However the withdrawal of deposits. which has been going on for the last few days, left the bank powerless. and this morning it found itself forced to discon- ,tinue operations. It Is now in the hands of MT. Kenyon and his assistants. and an examination is being made. T. J. Buxton is president; A. H. Linton. vice-president, and L. T. Buxton. assistant cashier. The bank was organized in October, 1872
