Scarcity of Gold.
9''Our opponents are trying to build up
.nancial system on gold alone when they
re not able to find the gold to furnish
he basis Of their system. The gold stand
I'd Is of no advantage unless you can
nd enough gold to furnish the standard
fllrniaha6
lat gold. They cannot furnish 1t. All
yer the world to-day the nations are
rambling to get what gold there Is. If
ne statistics furnished by our treasury
Z apartment are correct there are about
4 900 100000 in the world. But If the sta
{. sites furnished by other nations in regard
the supply of gold are as deceptive as
le statistics furnished in regard to this
ition's supply Of gold. instead of there
Sing $4.000, 900. 900 of gold In the world. there
y not $5.000, 900. In order to make up
70 -. 000. 900 900 they give this nation more
IAN $500, 000, 900. It Is not here, but the
easury statistics say 1t Is. but II you at
Jmpt to md 1t you find that there is some
Ill the vaults at Washington, some in the
itional and state banks, and then when

sther you have only little more than
le-half OF the estimated amount of gold
this country, and you ask them where
the rest of their gold. They tell you
lat Is known as the invisible supply of
DID. When they talk about the invisible
&lpply OF gold they talk about the supply
hich cannot be seen. because invisible
cans not seen, and will tell you that this
visible supply of gold is getting to be
I. ore and more invisible every day."
A Shot at the Bankers.
Nj. Bryan spoke of bankers who grew
IN on the interest Of deposits and added:
And yet these men who act in the capac-
OF trustees are SO insolent that they are
s)w contributing to republican campaign
mos the money that the people have de-
,sited with them for security. II the
INKS want to go into politics let them be-
are OF the result that may follow politi-
banking If they train to be business
en- and run their business on business
tnciples they must not come into the
I'D OF politics and attempt to run politics.
