How often you hear the thoughtless
remark that things couldn't be worse.
The New York World aptly remarks:
It is frequent excuse of unthinking
men for leaning towards free silver
that things can't be worse than they
now are." This is q mistake. Matters
can be very much worse, especially fol-
the workingmep.
They would be worse if wages were
paid in q 53-cent dollar, or in dollar
worth less than 100 cents.

SILVER IN A NUTSHELL.
Free Coinage of Bricks would Net Rsisl
Their PricO.

Free Coinage nj Bricks Would Net Raise
Their Price.
Did you ever stop to think what would
be the result If the government should
by legislation determine that ordinary
building bricks two by four by eight
inches in size should be legal tender in
any amount for one dollar each and
should arrange to have them so stamped
in any quantity free OF cost to the per-
sons presenting them?
Under such circumstances the price
of building bricks would at once ad-
vance to 1000 thousand, for If they
could be "coined" without cost the
bricks "uncoined" would be worth just
as much as the "coined" bricks--one
dollar each. But did it ever occur to
you that it would not be an advance in
the value of the bricks, but decrease
in the value Of the dollars, which would
thus establish new "parity between
money and property" that under such
a system $1,000 would be worth only
1000 bricks; that that 1000 bricks
would exchange for no more commodi-
ties or labor than it does to-day, and
consequently that $1,000 would mean
no more to us than !, 200 bricks do now?
In other words, our government can
determine by legislation what com-
modify and what amount Of that COM
modify one dollar shall be, but it must
leave 1t to the laws Of comparative sup
ply and demand, cost of production,
ETC., to determine what the value of that
commodity shall be. 1t may declare
that brick shall be dollar, in which
case one dollar will be worth whatever
brick will exchange for. It may de-
clare that 25.s grains Of gold shall be q
dollar. in which case one dollar will be
worth whatever 25.s grains of gold will
exchange for, or 1t may declare that
412k grains of silver shall be dollar,
in which case one dollar will be worth
only what 412H grains Of silver will ex-
.. change for. the same to-day as 50.3 cents
in gold, or, "giving the debtor the op-
tion" as to what dollar he shall use
with which to pay his debts, it may de-
clare that each of these three shall be a
dollar, in which case one dollar will be
worth just as much as the least valuable
Of the three, which under present con-
ditions would be the brick.-L. Carroll

why Does Not ME-. Bryan Answer9


Mr.. Bryan tells the farmers that free
coinage of silver will give them cheap
dollars with which to pay their debts.
Mr.. Bryan tells city workingmen that
free coinage Of silver will raise the
metal to $l.29 per ounce, bringing the
silver dollar to par with the gold dol
lar, thus giving city workingmen an
other dollar as good as the present one
with which to buy the farmers prod
ucts.
That is to say, to the farmer the
Bryan silver dollar is to be a cheap dol
lar to pay debts with. To city labor
the Bryan dollar is to be dollar Of
high purchasing power to buy with.
Free coinage of silver cannot produce
these two dollars. 1t can produce only
one Of the two. Why do not would-be
supporters of Mr.. Bryan ask him which
dollar he really means? Both the farm
er, who wants to pay debts, and the
workingman, who must buy farm prod
uce, are interested in having this ques-
ton snswered.-Chicago Tmes-Her-

Easy Lessons About Money.

At first all money was weighed in
scales. The first money trade told in the
Bible was in silver, "And Abraham
weighed to Ephron 400 shekels of silver,
current money with the merchant" A
shekel was half an ounce.
It was not easy to carry round pair
Of scales and weigh out metal each
time there was a trade. So coins were
made.
A shekel or some weight of silver or
of gold was weighed out, melted to-
gether and stamped with die show
ing it's weight. Now money could be
counted instead Of weighed out. This
made trading much easier.
Anything that makes trading easier
betters trade.
Silver was first in general use for
coins. But as people became better off
and had larger trades to make silver
was too weighty. So gold came into use.
AS nations have become better off
they have come to use gold more than
silver. The great trading nations now
use the gold standard and only the
poorer nations the silver standard for
their money systems.-N. Y. World.
