Good Cheer from Massachusetts.

10 observation ana 1nIeHenCe8 drawn
from this conservative Republican
stronghold, added to the poisonous
Misrepresentation of the New Eng.
land press, should unhesitstingly say
that mckinley, Protection and Pros.
perity, with "SOund Money" as q caudal
sppendsge, will sweep the country.
Fortunately, unlike the many who
breathe the atmosphere permeated
with gold standard and high protection
generslities, am occasionally favored
with opportunities to visit the manu-
featuring cities and towns, and find
an awakened enthusiasm among the
wage esrners unparalleled in history.
In June I attended an overAowing
meeting in Fsneuil hall, Boston, and
heard the plsudits of thousands who
had gathered there to see and hear Mr..
E. V. Debs, His presence and address
was revelation to many who had been
taught to consider him a monster.
Again 1 visited the same place, and
was present at the enthusiastic, mag.
nifcent reception rendered George
Fred Williams on his return from the
Chicago convention. Surely on that
occasion the old "Cradle of liberty"
was rocked from within and without,
for there were thousands In the streets
wlO could not get into the hall. 1t
was a gathering of the people, and
from the platform came sentiments
that would fire with zeal any lover of
liberty. Party lines were cast aside,
and each Wed with the other In sp-
plauding the speakers. AS a fitting
finale to that grand demonstration, the
venerable John Hutchinson, weighed
with the burdens of more than 80 years
but young In enthusiasm as any there,
advanced tofront of the platform, and
In moment that throng of wildly en-
thusisstic men were hushed to silence,
seemingly In anticipation Of a prophecy
from that patrisrchsl form. With
flowing hair and beard Whitened by
years, erect and brilliant In expression,
he announced: 81 am Populist, but
am proud to fraternize with all lovers
of humanity who are now engaged in
this grand and noble work." Thus
closed q meeting likened by one Of the
delegates to a small section of the Chi
cago convention.
My purpose in dwelling upon this Is
that you may draw such differences as
may be logically drawn from this and
similar demonstrations that are greet
ing George Fred Williams wherever he
goes.
Since 1890 l have affiliated with the
POpullst party, nor am l else than q
Populist to-day; but in this campaign
1t seems expedient to unite for COM
mon purpOse-the overthrow of ring
politics and q return to first principles
of honest government. George Fred
Williams is an able man, a fighter. he
stands to-day indorsed by the common
people, but opposed by the State Dem
ocrstic mschine-an adjunct Of the
corporate money power. Because Of
this, / believe it duty to hold up his
hands as effectually as possible. Ipro-
pose to do it, and though powerful
forces are allied against us, there is

BIMETALLISM- SM--NATIONAL
AND INTERNATIONAL.

You do me the honor TO attach some
weight to my opinion In regard to the
vexed money question, and would like
to know my ideas about the silver
problem which has so suddenly taken
precedence Of sll other questions, l
do not think that / can express my
ideas better than I did in my last book,

pass Of a letter, besides adapting them

lam going to treat the following
points:
l. Is international bimetslllsm posi-
slblep
2. Is National blmetSlllsm possibleP ?
3. What effects will be produced by
Q merely National declaration of bi.
metallismP
To the first question, Is international
bimetsllism posslbleP l unhesitstingly
answer, eyes" Those who object to
1t on the ground of the lmposslbllity Of
keeping up a fixed relation of value
between two commodities which have
different conditions of production
conditions continually varying quite
independently, do not know anything
about Ricardo's rent theory, or anyhow
have never considered it's application
to the present case. This theory says
that the price 10 formed by that pro-
duction which is carried on under the
most unfsVorRble circumstances. Ap.
piled to mines, this means that the
price Of q mineral Is determined by It's
cost in the most inferior mine In oper.
alton. or course the term "inferlor"
refers to all the factors In point, or
rather to their coefficlent. Richness
of ore may be compensated by mac.
feasibility, for instance, or 0ice VerSG.
The demand of the market determines
the limit at which exploitation remains
possible. Now what determines the
demand Of the market In the case Of
the precious metalsS In the first line,
the demand for the arts. In the sec.
ond line, the demand for money pur.
poses, 1t Is evident that the demand
decreases when the second kind of de-
mand 10 cut off; 1t increases when this
kind Of demand is renewed. We have
seen that silver became less In demand
as soon as It was demonetized In a
great part Of the world, and gold be-
came more In demand In proportion
AS Q natural consequence the price of
silver went down, the price Of gold
went up. But we also know that price
and cost Of pre- duction can never re-
main apart very long, or In othsl
words, the price must always tend to
follow cost. This must be reversed In
the case Of minerals, FOR q better price
enables as to work inferior mines
which increases cost; lower price vii
finally enable US only to keep the bet
ter mines In operation, forcing us tt
stop work on inferior mines, which di
minishes cost.
It will be easy after this to give thu
history of silver within the last two de
cades. Technic progress, together
with the discovery Of rich mines, had

theF down more mines had to be sban

tion at the most inferior mine CORE

What would naturally be the effect

these mines would just be repaid by
the higher price Of silver.
Now let us come to gold, which ObeyE

more correct, It's purchasing power,

pressed, or which forms the measuring
gauge, is In question. The conse.
quence was that mines could be oper-
sted which otherwise would not have
paid exploitation. The lowest limit
was where cost of production and price
balanced.
IF these preliminaries are understood,
