THE coinsgs Ui siivrs under the Bland act provided a gradual ineres-e to our currency that was much nesd- cd, but which, ss population increased. proved insufficient. The dsmands Oi of money, owing to the increase oi population and production and the greater quantity of produce to be sx- changed, increasing faster than the supply. money appreciated and pricss fell. The fault of the Bland act is that it did not go ia. enough. Pending its pssssge there were dire preiic:i"n- oi disastsr. It was confidently pre- dicted that its passage would be the exportstien Of all our gold, but from the passage of the Bland scs down to its repeal tbeis was no occssion Tor anxiety on the part of the treasury oncials on this score. The gold re- serve rose from $l19,956.s55 on the 30sh Of June. 1873, to $l90, ,232 .404 on June 30, 1890. shortly before it's repeal. Tue trouble with the Bland e, the coinage of silver under it was not suf- 6cisnt to give us s stable currency. As population and demand for money grew fasser than she supply limited to the co,nsgs of gold and the restricted purchases of silver money appreciated and prices fell. Consequently to the producing clssses the Bland sot was not satisfsetory. It did not give them shs needed relief or insurs them just reward for their industriss. Pro- 6ts of industry disappeared in falling prices. Year after year the demand increased for unlimited coinage among ths sroiucing clssses. and the farm. sug classes especi.nr. who felt ""-:: severely the fall ei prices.-Minipg WesA.
