represents gold, WHICH THE GOV
EMINENT HAS NOT.
Speaking OF curiosities in the money
line, gold money is quite a curiosity to
mos. people. under the present gold
standard. It is so valuable because it
repres snts our basic money, our money
of final redemption, our only money, and
yet WE HAVE NONE OF IT! We have
nothing in circulation in the way of
money metal in this country but silver
and that metal has been demon uzed.
This is the outrageous and unlawful sit
ua,ion which the people have determined
to change. It is a change that is bound
10 come.
Now we come to kindergarten lesson
No. 4. Our pupil says:
Free silver takers and writers are very
fond of telling people that this country is
short of money and that the shortage is
the result OF the crime of 1873 They
never think 10 tel the people that in 1873
money and that in 1896 we have $1.52l, OOlOJO.
And our neighbor goes on in the usual
strain 10 show how much more money
we have than we used 10 nave. Mr..
Bryan neatly and very effectively nailed
this falls assumption the last time he
went through Ohio. He took the words
of John Sherman in advocating the act
Of 1880 for 4 text. Mr.. Bryan's Ian
guage is good enough to reproduce and
we hope our Fourteenth 81. pupil will
read and digest it. Said Mr.. Bryan:
IF our present currency" said Senator
sherman. is estimated at one billion four
huuufeq million dollars, and our pOpula-
ton is increasing az the rate Of 3 per cent.
