- 20. What has the wealth of eoun-
try to do with the amount of money
it possesses?
A very great DEAL as moments re
Election win show. A country like
China or Japan needs but a small per-
ca pita circulation OF money to make
ITS exchanges of property and to pre-
vent a fall or rise in prices: and man.
ifestly an old and well developed
country of small area, like France or
Germany, will need less than new
and undeveloped country of great area
like the United States.
2l. Is 1t not true that the bankers
of our country generally have plenty
OF money in their vaults which they
are unwilling to lend?
This is true, but it shows that mon-
ey is dear and commodities cheap
Money can be borrowed il there is am
pie security, but cannot be bought. 1t
will not really exchange for commodi-
ties or labor. Property invested in
money is now more valuable than when
invested in commodities. Free coin
age of silver will put new money in
circulation, will enable the people to
earn more money and render money
less dear and more ready to exchange
for commodities and labor.
%. So much business is now done
m he l.xr 81. o..1
drafts, does there not now exist less
need for money than formerly
All will agree that this country
never had as prosperous times as be-
tween 1864 and 1873 and business was
done then as much as now through
the banks, while in many lines OF bus
mess money Is now used where orders
on stores and other obsolete devices
were formerly employed.
%. What was the per capita of
money circulation at the end of the
war in 1865?
Before the southern states which
had been in rebellion began to use the
national money there was per capita
circulation Of about $50, not includ-
ing ohe '-oo bonus winch, having been
pau out ny the government TO the SOL
dlers, also largely, passed as currency

The Grand Canon of the Colorado
River, in Arizona, is now for the first
time easily accessible to tourists. A
regular stage line has been establish
ed from Flagstaff, Arizona, on the
Atlantia& Pacific Railroad, making
the trip from Flagstaff to the most
imposing part of the Canon in less
than IL hours. The stage fare for the
round trip is only $4,000, and meals
and comfortable lodgings are provid-
ed throughout the trip at reasona-
Bile price. The view Of the Grand
Canon afforded at the terminus Of the
stage route is the most stupendous
panorama known in nature. There
is also trail at this point leading
down the Canon wall, more than 6, 900
feet vertically, to the river below.
The descent of the trail is a grander
experience than climbing the Alps,
for in the bottom of this terrific and
sublime chasm are hundreds of noun
tains greater than any of the Alpine
range.

this tube gets infiamed you have a

Silver and gold differ from other COM
modities in that when they are stamp
ed by the government they become
money for which every person seeks
and no one thinks he has too much.
80. What effect does the increase
or decrease in the volume of
money have on the price OF commodi-
ties?
When there is an increase in the
volume of money the price OF commo-
dities rise, and when there is de-
crease in the volume of money the
price of commodities falls.
81. What proof is there that this
law is true?
The ablest writer's on economics in
Europe and America and the expert
ence of our own and other countries
teach this. In Australia and Califor-
mia, for example, when the gold mines
were yielding beautifully times were
good; but now that the mines, especi-
ally those OF Australia, have become
nearly exhausted the times are hard
and prices exceedingly low.
30. Is it not true that the present
low price of commodities Is mainly
due to Improvements in machinery,
etc?
Some authorities are willing to con-
cede to this cause or per cent of
the fall in prices which has occurred
during the last twenty-five years; but
other authorities contend that the inn
proyements In the methods of mining
gold and silver, which have been great.
will fully Offset all this decline.
80. Is it not true that the low
price of commodities, especially man.
ufactured articles. is due to over pro-
duction?
There has been an increase OF pro-
duction in many articles, but in gem
eral not an production. The ben
efts ofan increase in production should
go TO the producer and not to the nom
producer. Money should increase
with commodities and business TO such
an extent that the general average OF
prices may be preserved.
"a. Have not the low prices Of
wheat and cotton been caused by the
increased competition of India and
other countries?
The increased production Of these
articles has not kept pace with the
worlds per capita OF population, but
our wheat and cotton growers are now
only receiving the gold price of silver
for their products while those in slI-
yer standard countries-their main
competitions are receiving It's mint
or coin price for theirs. For many
years past the price OF wheat and cot
ton has followed very closely the price
Of silver bullion. Hence every adj
vance In the price OF silver is a benefit
TO our wheat and cotton growers, and
this is the reason why our northern
farmers and our southern planters are
50 universally favoring free coinage Of
silver.
