GEORGE c. FINDLEY.

1t remains now, in conclud-
ing this series, to consider the
maintenance of the right volume
OF money. The plan here suggested
is not original. It was first rough
ly sketched by the writer five years
ago, but since in a modified form
has been developed and given con-
siderable notoriety by others. The
method is now presented in the
most meagre outline. 1t is still
incomplete, nor is it claimed to be
the best that can be devised: but it in
PRODUCES no new idea ofgovernment
and is not an impracticable pro-
position. On the contrary it is easy
of application, it suggests the
right principle; it comes within the
comprehension of the most Obtuse
intelligence, and is consistent with
monetary science, progressive ideas
and the utmost demands of justice.
The constitution declares that
congress shall have power to coin
money and regulate the value
thereof. How, under the economic
law that value depends upon the
ratio of supply and demand, can
government regulate the value of
money with that honesty and sta
bility essential to common justice,
except through control of the vol
ume? And what arbitrary process
can be superior to the natural
method here proposed by which

The Tramp.

Tramp! Tramp! Tramp!
And beg for coffee and bread,
And sleep a night with shiver and cramp,
Like brute in a barn or shed!
@, life is a game in devils ring,
Where one in a thousand wins,
But death must be a jolly thing,
For a skeleton always grins.
We ask for work, we ask for bread,
And they manac1e our feet,
And march us out to the chain gang tread,
TO work on the city street.
O God, when was it crime before
TO make pauper's appeal?
God pity the tramp and pity the poor,
What can we do but steal?
One way is open is open to all
We can flee this horrible strife,
A little powder, little ball,
Will end this nightmare life.
O. welcome DEATH and welcome hell,
Or heaven, if that may be,
He made the prince, and the tramp as well,
And He will welcome me.
Tramp! Tramp! Tramp!
And beg for coffee and bread,
And sleep at night with SILVER and cramp,
Like brute in barn or shed.
O, life is game in devils ring,
Where one in a thousand wins,
But death must be jolly thing,
For a skeleton always grins.

maintaining a constant relation
between supply and demand.

maintaining constant relat1On
between supply and demand.
In comparing two quantities, if
one is constant their ratio varies as
the other. In the problem of price
we have a comparison of two ratios.
One is the ratio of supply and de-
nand for money, the other the sup
ply and demand for products.
Price is the ratio of these
two ratios. 1t is right and
just that prices vary with the
ratio of supply and demand for
products; but that variations in the
supply and demand for money
should affect prices is unjust and
unnatural. If potatoes are scarce
they should be high; if abundant,
low; but why should they be low
because of something entirely un-
connected with the potato market?
In our present commercial chaos
we often behold the anomaly of
short crop and low prices: Why?
Because money, in which their
value is measured, is so cornered
that prices represent the condition
of the market not for produce, but
for money. Prices cannot vary
with the ratio between supply
and demand for products unless
the other member of the compar-
ison--the ratio between supply and
demand for mOney-be constant.
The variation in the supply ratio
of money amounts to the same
thing as would variations in the
standards by which quantities of
product are measured. How long
would you swap products with
fellow whose bushel measure was
big when you marketed your crop
and small when you purchased your
supplies? Or buy cloth from a
merchant whose yard stick varied
in length according to the digestion
of a hook-nosed niser 5000 miles
towards the up-cOming sun?
If business men had moiety of
the sagacity they assume, not tor
one moment would they tolerate
the outrageous monkeying with
the measure of value INDUCED in
by the vultures of "feenaunce." Did
they see this thing in it's true light,
a roar would go up that would
frighten the manipulators into
their bank vaults for protection, or
make absolutely necessary a sud-
den trip to where in very truth
their money would need to be good
in "Yurrup."
For measure of weight we have
the pound, for length the foot. tor
time the hour, and from generation
to generation these never vary:
But the dollar, the measure OF
value, is guilty of the grossest in
Justice. It is unscientific, arbitrary,
dishonest and devoid of common
sense. It is never stable. How
can it be since it's production is a
matter of chance, uncertain and, to
saw nothing of it's manipulation by
the bank combine, subject to more
vicissitudes than any staple prod

supply is made to go or come at
the ready bidding of demand?
All men agree that the supply
of money should be stable. Even
plutocracy does not forget to assert
that gold is the most stable of
metals. The volume of money, as
much as the volume of products,
affects prices. Hence the necessity
of sta bility, necessity that is en-
phasized, since change in the
supply of particular product
produce affects no price but it's own
or, at the most, only of those that for
it can readily be substituted; while
change in the volume of money
effects all prices-not only of all
products, but the wages of all labor
and the value of all obligations to
pay money.
All the evils of our financial sys-
tenn arise from changes in the ratio
of supply and demand. instability
built up monopoly and now mono
poly perpetuates instability. Mon
OpOly is instability.
Demand constantly varies. Sta
bility of the ratio between supply
and demand is not produced by
dead-level volume as assumed by
the per capita theory, though even
that would be vast improvement
on the selfish and arbitrary fuctu-
atoms engendered by the bank
trust.
What is wanted, as before stated,
is enough to do the business of the
country on a cash basis. Supply
must yield automatically to every
legitimate demand. When not
hampered by artificial restriction
nature works automatically. And
the closer we follow her methods the
more wisdom we display. Under
the proper system the necessity of
more money will itself produce the
increased supply. When demand
dwindles Immediately and in like
ratio the supply should cease to
come. Like the connection be-
tween a constant reservoir and a
supply tank which permits ready
flow of just 50 much as may be
taken out, so the supply of money
should yield instantly as demand
varies. The quantity of money
should not be permitted to affect
changes in prices (which legitimate
lv should result only from the
the changes in the ratio of supply
and demand for each separate
article.
No monetary system can deal
Justly so long as money is permit
ted to affect values. BY it's defni-
ton money is said to be "a measure
of value." This function results
from the law of supply and demand
which, as it affects price, originates
deep in nature, and even if we
would, could not be overturned.
But money being creation of law
it's volume is under absolute con-
troll of government. Its supply
