ulate prices. It may operate by on
trolling laws. In it's last analysis the
evil of the gold standard is the evil Of
monopoly, because it enables the finan-
cial magnates to fix the standard and
then to corner the money market as
they have done. Monopoly and unjust
taxation are often combined, as in a
protective tariff.
The candidacy of Mckinley is sup
ported by monopolists. The tariff
barons who made millions from monop-
olies gained through unjust taxation
and the financial magnates who made
millions by cornering gold and selling
it to the government are combining
the power of their wealth and influence
to elect him. All the interests that plum
der the producing toilers by the reduc-
ton of wages, the increase of prices by
trusts, the manipulation of corporations
and the juggling of the money market
are combined in his support.
On the other side is Bryan, whose
candidacy is a protest against every
form Of monopoly and who must look
for support only from the toilers.
Can there be any question as to the
candidate whose success will! represent
the welfare of the people?

It thus appears that the farmer In
1866 got more than three times as much
in gold for his wheat as he is getting
now, and about twice as much for ev-
erything else. But If he had a mort
gage on his farm it was reckoned in
currency, and one bushel of wheat
would clear off nearly 2.2O of it, instead
of about so cents, as it viii now.
A thousand bushels of wheat at that
time would pay off the whole of a mort
gage of $1,000 and leave $1,196 for ex-
penses. The same crop would now al
low the farmer $500 to apply to the
mortgage and nothing to live or run
the farm on, or $500 for expenses and
nothing for the mortgage, or $50 for
interest and 1929 for the farm and fam
lily, leaving the debt as large as ever.
In 1866 a man without money could
buy a farm in the west on credit and
pay for it with the proceeds of one crop.
In 1896 the anne man might receive the
same farm, without incumbrance, as a
gift. and be bankrupt in a year. But
Mr.. Cochran sees nothing in the discon-
tent of the western farmer except a de-
sire to cheat his laborers.

AGAINST SILVER.
EASTERN MoNoPoLIsrs AND
TRUSTS LEADING THE FIGHT.
If FREQ Silver Would Iniurs the Amerl-
can Workman Every Mothers Son of
Thorn Would Be Shouting for JIG
to 1.

When Bourke Cochran exalted the
Importance in the social fabric of the
men who toll he used a common trick
of argument to gain for his side the
apparent advantage of the champion
ship of labor.
But Mr.. Bryan in his Rhinebcck
speech went as far, although in fewer
words, as Mr.. Cochran in pointing out
the Importance of the toilers as vital
factors in the well-being of the whole
social organism. In doing so he merely
accepted a practical axiom of political
economy that the foundations of all
prosperity rest upon the welfare of the
men who dig and delve for the product
of the soil and mine, who turn the raw
material into articles of necessity and
use and who perform the task of plac-
ing them where they are needed.
Agreeing, therefore, that the welfare
OF the producers is the vital concern of
all, the question of the campaign is:
Which party offers the better hope of
prosperity to the producers?
The chief enemies of the toilers are
monopoly in a.. it's forms and unjust
taxation. Monopoly may be represent
ed by the power to control production
or to corner the products and thus reg

The Disconnected Farmer.

The agricultural department has is
sued a circular that will help to explain
why the farmers are not as happy now
as they used to be. 1t compares the
prices of leading farm products year
by year, from 1866 to 1895. The prices
are given in currency, but when re-
duced to a gold basis the results are
sufficiently striking. Inspect these fig
ures, for instance:
