pended, and the question arises why should
we who produce and own no silver double
the price of silver upon ourselves when we
wish to buy? How does 1t benefit US who
do not sell silver to have it cost more?
Why should we take this $35 OOO, 900 from
our national tax money-already insufficient
to supply our current eeds-and hand it
over voluntarily and unnecessarily to the
silver owners, who make handsome profit
now in selling their silver for one-half Of
what we insist upon paying them here
after?
Under the Sherman act we bought silver
to be coined into money. How did that
business operation differ from Mr. Bryan's
proposed purchase?
We paid under the former only the COM
mercial value of the silver; under the lat
ter it is proposed that we double the price
Under the former the coinage was limited
with the purpose of confining it to Ameri-
can silver or to an amount which could be
maintained at a parity with gold; under
the latter coinage would be unlimited I'm
der the former the coinage was on the
governments account, all taxpayers profit
ing by the difference between the CONNER
cial and the coinage value of the silver.
under the latter the coinage would be al,

orage goes to the silver owner instead of to

ments under the Bland and Sherman acts.
and wish to add more silver dollars to our
currency than can be supplied from the
millions of silver bullion already bought
and lying In the treasury vaults, why not
buy the bullion for ourselves and earn for
ourselves the seigniorage? Why insist upon
enriching the silver-owning class at the ex-
pense Of the masses, the taxpayers of the
United States?
Is American shrewdness at striking n
bargain totally lost? If we are going to
offer to buy the four billions Of silver of
the world, why do we offer to paw twice
what we can now get 1t for in the vorld's
markets. and defend ourselves solely by
saying that it will be worth the double
price just as soon as we offer to pay that
amount for 1t?
For Uncle Sam to make an extrayasant
guess at the price which silver will bring
after he has "remonetized" it, and then in

1t is claimed that the Three Friends will
