Il IL Unprejudiced and Can We Afford
to Fellow It?
Mr.. Bryan appears to set great store
by the letter which Gov. Culberson, of
Texas, has received from Prince Bis
marck. The peoples friend" is willing
to receive advice from the "Man Of
Blood and Iron," and the champion
of the American farmer" listens to
that famous friend of American agri-
culture who shut the German ports to
American pork in 1884 and to American
potatoes in 1885, and who would gladly
have united all central Europe in a
customs league aimed directly against
all American produce. Bismarck's
rather diplomatic letter is taken by Mr..
Bryan in his recent speeches to favor
the free coinage Of silver by the United
States. The devotion of Chancellor Bis
marck TO the cause of silver may be
seen in the following historical fact,
which appears to have escaped general
notice:
Under his guidance as chancellor of
the empire and minister Of commerce
for Prussia the equivalent of 1,Os0,-
0Oo, 900 marks lover $27O, ,OOO, ,OOO) in sill
yer was demonetized between the years
1874 and 1881, and over $16O, 200, 900
worth of the bullion into which these
were melted had been sold by 1879. In
that year, finding that the price of sill
yer was becoming demoralized, so that
his remaining $1oo o,ooo,OoO was depre-
ciatfng, he stopped sales by decree
issued in May, 1870. These points were
frankly stated by his delegation to the
international monetary conference of
1881, when Germany likewise offered
to suspend sales for @ time in order
that the price might not be further
depressed. With these assurances be-
fore the monetary powers and with the
decree of 1879 still IN force, Bismarck
saw an opportunity of dumping some
German silver on the sly and proceeded
to do so. In 1885 the Egyptian govern
ment decided to change it's coinage and
invited bids for contracts to coin its
silver piasters. The German mint Sc
cured the contract to make the coin and
incidentally furnished $3,1s9,e of sill
yer bullion to Egypt. The matter was
Kept very quiet OF escaped general no
tice. Reference to it will be found,
however, in the London Economist of
December 4, 1886, which saw in it a
proof of Bismarck's lack of faith in
silver.
With all his faults, Bismarck is
sturdy patriot To help the German
distiller he was willing to see trichine
in every American pig, and to protect
the German farmer he smelled bugs on
every American potato. Germany has
to-day $107,000,0OO worth of silver
whose value is declining. If the United
States could be induced to follow the
example Of Egypt and give Germany
chance to do some more unloading,
where is the harm, from the ex-chan-
cellor's point of view, in writing let
ter Of not entirely disinterested advice?

The gold press and the gold orators
seem to be getting "daffy.' What do
they mean by bowling about the free
coinage movement being all for the
benefit Of the silver mine owner, who,
they say. is to get dollar for fifty
cents worth of silver, and at the same
time bowling FIFTY cent dollar?"
No sane man can reconcile these
two arguments that are advanced side
by side by every gold advocate.
If the silver bullion owner will get
only a dollar worth ffty-three cents
for his ffty-three cents worth of sill
yer bullion. where in the name of COM
mon sense, will his profit come in?
And. on the other hand, if the silver
bullion owner Will get a 1OO-cent dollar
for his bullion at the present coinage
ratio what becomes of the goldbug as
sertion that it viii be only a fifty
three cent dollar
The goldbugs are the most unreas-
enable and entirely absurd people on
earth. They should try to get their
arguments together.

GOLD TRUSTS AND OTHER TRUSTS.
Here is an interesting conversation
reported by a contemporary: A
group of business mon were discussing
the financial question as usual from
both the gold and silver s,aadpoihts
when one of the gold men used this
argument
why what is the use of talking
about that gold trust? Even II we have
silver these same money fellows will
get control of that also and we will in
q short time have the same condition
of affairs that we now have"
Well said the silver man. ret he
call your attention TO the coal crust
that is pinchtng us to-day. What
would be our condition If we did not
have The soft coal to play against their
hard coal2 Where would the price per
ton of hard coal so? DO YOU think it
would stop at the figure of The hour?
You know better That is precisely
what we silver men want 20 do. We
will knock out that infamous gold
trust by putting silver in to do its
work and end the painful strain and
avert the ruin that now stares us in
the face.
The gold man subsidized, SAIL he was
always opposed to trusts, that they
We're bad for any community, and so
forth.
