Cuba. piscon.n:ing Experiment.

Cuba is furnishing "a nearby example
of the beauties Of government regulation
of the value Of money on the Bryan
plan. Captain General Weyler had &.
deficient supply of cash, and so he had
the Banco Espanol put cut /. lot of pa
per money and issued IL stringent edict
that everybody should take it at par
with gold. As the island is practically
under martial law, here was govern
mcnt control of the currency at its best.
If you didn't take the bank bills at par,
you were liable to be shot. Even Bryan
couldn't do more for silver than that.
But did the edict keep the bank notes at
par? Not for day. Almost instantly
they were ut discount, which soon
amounted to 90 per cent. Even with
guns and bayonets You cannot make so
cents equal u dollar. Wcyler has had to
give up trying. He has finally allowed
the Havana Stock Exchange to quote tho
value of the bank bills in gold. We
were going to say that this proves the
powcrlessness of law to establish thc
value of money, but we remember in
time that Cuba has less than 9, 900, 600
population to our 10000, 900; that she
never put down the greatest rebellion Of
modern times; that her inhabitants are
got the richest, proudest, most intcli.
gent people OH earth, and so we are not
SO sure Her case is only u part OF uni.
vcrsal experience, but we have changed
all that.-New York Post.
