CURRENCY AND A STANDARD.

In the language Of the currency experts
gold is "primsry money, "in this country
just now.
That means that it is basis for money,
fer all currency, fixed basis of value on
which all business transactions are madc.
Gold is not "money'' or currency as
commonly understood. 1t is only spar
ingly used as a medium OF exchange II
all the gold in the world were in common
use 1t would pe worn out by constant
handling. A gold coin is never worth
it's faces but its weight. A chunk OF gold
OF a certain weight is as good as gold
co in stamped by government OF the same
weight.
There Is not enough gold in the world
10 do business with-that Is what the
silverites tell us. OF course there isn't.
And nobody wants TO DO business with
II. There are other and more convenient
forms OF currency There is plenty OF
gold. though, for use as a basis OF value
and to pay balances between nations
where nothing in the shape OF ordinary
legal tenders or promises TO pny are nc
ceptable. Experience has demonstrated
that there is enough gold for these pur.
poses.
American money OF all kinds, except
the trade dollars, Is as "Rood "a gold"
bot nobody wants real gold money,
hardly more than we wan, to handle big
silver dollars.

WEDNESDAY, JULY l5, 1896.

ACCORDING to contemporary, the
queerest birthmark which the authorities
tell anything about IS on the back OF
JOSEPH RoTHERMAN's neck. JOSEPH is
a resident OF Connellsville, Pa, and his
odd mark is a moon. When the moon is
new the mark is hardly noticeable, but
by the end OF the first quarter Il ia an
angry-looking crescent, daily increasing
in size. When the moon Is at the full
RoTHERMAN's birthmark has also attained
its maximum size. 1t decreases as the
moon wanes, and by the time OF old or
new moon is again scarcely noticeable.
After this. nothing in the nature OF a
campaign lie can stagger us.

Wages in silver and Gold Remittance.

A writer TO the New York sun ex-
presses himself as follows:
To THE EDITOR or TIE SUN--Sir:
think there 10 one ,Soint IN this gold and
81 YER question that no paper has touched
on, and IL Is .his, and extends all over
the country, particularly in Indiana,
Illinois, Iowa and other doubtful States.
In every State thero arc more or less OF
the Irish and German population. Over
two-thirds of these are Democrats. Nearly
all of them have, more or less, fathers,
mothers, brothers, sisters, or some one
else depending on them in tho old
country for help. All these people today
receive gold for their wages and gold
bills they romit.
How will IL be on a silver basis when
Bridget or Patrick or Hans goes with
his s10 or $40 (silver dollars) and finds he
can only get 50 or $40 gold bill OF ex-
change for IL to send those be wants TO
belpf how Will IL tben be explained to
him2 "
There Is no person living among us
that can beat the Irish servant girl when
she gets started. Just get IL explained to
her that her $50 she gets today for a
months wages is only going to- buy a
draft Tor not over si5 at most TO remit to
the old folk, ami II she don't make one

me fool, and Bryan will thips he has

Bryan's Well Worked BIT of Bunc omt


The young elocutionist who was nom
mated at Chicago for President OF the
United States on the strength of his
"orown of thorns and cross of gold"
speech, had worked that phrase very hard
before, so that II may we'll have slipped
easily over his tongue.
The Sun told it's readers yesterday,
quoting from the New York Herald, thst,
according to Secretary j. sterling Nor
ton, Mr. Bryan's rhetorical figure of the
crucihxion of "labor" on a cross OF gold
formed part of his speecn week pre-
viously In a debate with John Il. Irish
Tin which Irish came off winner, tool.
As a matter or fact II is much older. The
Boy used 1t on Dec. -, $50 4, In the House
Of Representatives.
The House was In committee OF the
whole considering n bill TO amend the
laws rel,ting TO national banking associ-
ations, and to exempt the notes OF
State banks from taxation under certain
CONDITIONS. be Boy Orator waxed elo-
quent In opposition.
"Notwithstanding all these influences
In favor of bimetallism," he cried, after
reciting some of his stock arguments,
"the money centers present this insolent
demand for fuither legislation In favor
OF an universal gold standard. for one
will not yield TO the demand. ] will not
help to cruelty manKipd upon n cross of
gold. | will not aid them to press. s.down
upon the bleeding brow Of labor the
crown OF thorns."
At Chicago he said:
"Having behind US the commercisl In
terests. and the labo,inR interests, and
all the toiliDg masses, we shall snswer
their demands for y gold standard by

NATIONAL GREEN GOODS GAME.

NATIONAL GREEN GOODS GAME.
Every now and then some ordinarily
intelligent and honest fellow-citizen from
the back districts goes to New York for
the purpose OF obtaining several thou
sand dollars worth OF counterfeit money
that is represented to be "as good as
real" for several hundred dollars.
What he gets in exchange for his several
hundred dollars, howe>,r, is not some
thing that he can pass at a value OF sew
eral thousand dollars, bur only something
that has only the value of a few cents.
In other words, the back district citizen
is fieeced, skinned, cheated and done up.
That is called the "ereen goods" game.
A considerable number of clever gentle
men make a good living from 1t, for the
reason that there are plenty Of their
fellow -citizens who are ready and eager
to be bit-no, not to be bit, but to engage
For the citizen who is bit by the green
goods game is dishonest equally with .he
bitter. rs
To be sure, both he and his neighbors
usually fail to recognize bis dishonest
motive after he has been victimized by a
dishonest chap of more shrewdness. But
he Is dishonest just the same. And ii Is
upon his innocence in cupidity and dis
honesty that the green goods sharper
plays, and not upon his honest innocence.
He tries to get something for nothing.
He seeks to buy counterfeit money that
he may pass as real money upon his un-
suspecting neighbors. He winds up by
getting nothing tor something. wicked
men like himself cheat him because they
are smarter than he. But he deserves no
sympathy. He is q fool and n knave,
and is simply made the victim of another
knave who is not n fool.
The free, unlimited and independent
coinage proposition is green goods
gami on a large scale. IT proposes to
furnish dollars that are worth fifty cents
and to call them real dollars.
We fear that to great many ordinarily
intelligent and honest ow-citizens CT
ours this proposition will not lack for
attractiv iveness.
We fear they will take kindly to 1t.
We doubt II the preaching OF the dis
honesty of the proposition, OF the oiscred-
liability OF national reputation, will not
always influence them against giving their
support to secure dollars for fifty cents
apiece.
To many OF our fellow-citizens, other
wise intelligent and honest, "nstional
dishonor." "repudiation" are In the
nature of abstract terms where "money''
is to be "made."
AhN Aioo Si'Fei Piopositioh ID po'i w
be met by such campaign of education
as shall not only appeal TO honor and
honesty but shall also demonstrate that
the individual whs secures fifty cent
dollar will In the end be worse off than
he was when he was permitted to h,n-
die I00-cent dollars.
II the citizen who responds to the in
voting circular OF the green goods man
could be convinced that he was only to
get package of green wrapping paper
or bag OF sawdust he would hang on
to the money he has In the bank and
let it continue to draw interest.
