changed the ratio between the two metals from
IL ounces of silver to one ounce OF gold to 16
ounces OF silver to one Of gold. and our whole
history has demonstrated that whenever under
any ratio the one metal was more valuable than
the other. the more valuable went out Of cir
culation and the less valuable remained in

THE CHEAPER DRIVES THE BETTER OUT
The cheaper metal drove the better metal out
(Cries OF That's right. too,'O That Is the ire

we had free coinage at 16 to l. while the CONNER
cial value OF silver in It's relation TO gold is 80 to l.
gold would go out and silver would be the only
money with which would do business. for
a 10O-cent dollar will not keep company with
52-cent dollar tremendous cheering and cries Of
"Hurrah for McKineyr): and instead Of our
having more money. would have less money
with which TO transact the business Of the coun-
try. Great applause and cries of That's right')

In 1873. when the free coinage OF silver was
stopped. we not using either gold or silver
as money We were using paper We did not use
a dollar Of silver then. We now have JJ0,O0O.OoO.
of which Alb 100000 full legal-tender stand
ard silver dollars and behind every one Of them
is the Government of the United States. Great
cheering) The lack Of silver surely could not
have deprecated prices since 1913. for we have
sixty times more of it now than we had then. The
depression in the price Of wheat about which
much is now said must be accounted FOR IN some
chi Of no H.
reau of Statistics states that the consumption or
wheat per capita in 1872 was - per cent less
than in 1892. Do you not think that II might be
more reasonable TO account for some or the de-
probation In the price OF wheat than to charge II
to the monetary legislation OF twenty-three years
ago? (Cries of Yes, Yes,) 1t was the de-
crease of consumption and the increase Of compe-
tition not the suspension Of the free coinage OF
silver that accounts in part for the low price OF
wheat to-day.
THE DUTY OF PATRIOTS.
we cannot make prices. but can provide
that all prices shall be paid in full dollars worth
100 cents (Crles Of That's right and great
cheering) We cannot reverse the laws OF trade
and we will not reverse the laws of common non
