wheat. Soon after Bryan's nomination
the free-silver shouters kicked up such
u rumpus that spectators both here and
abroad thought there was some chance
OF his success. and silver advanced on
speculative buying to about 20 cents an
ounce. 1t was not long. however, before
the holders became convinced that Bry-
ans chances of success were hopeless,
and they at once began to get rid OF
their loads. Consequently, as more and
more holders of silver saw that they
had paid a good price for a wlite ele-
phant. and sickened of their bargain,
the price of silver gradually sank until
today it is quoted at GAY cents an ounce.
This is considerably lower than It was
early last summer. when it was thought
improbable that the Democratic party
would come out flat-footed for the free
coinage of silver.

Americans are in the midst of mar
velous era. Several hundred million dol
lars have been added to the value of
American products in the last ninety
days. The magic of Aladdin is tame by
the side of the sober truth of modern
trade. The widest dreams of the rpos.
ties of fiatism pale into insignificance in
comparison with the simple fact Of to-
day. Nature is making money for
Americans faster than any printing
press could do it. The rise in the prices
of the products of American farms
means the beginning of a prosperity that
needs only the success of the honest dol
lar Mt the November election to Euarau-
tee its pernanence.
Most of the chief farm products share
in the advanced prices. Most of these
commodities are being exported in enor-
nous quantities, and in exchange Amer
lea will get European gold. No one can
say truly how much has been added to
the wealth of Americans by the rise, but
a few figures will give the reader an ink
ling of the mighty force at work for
American veal. Corn has risen 5 cents

RISES
WHEAT
WHY

While silver for weeks has been drop
ping practically without interruption
from about 20 cents an ounce to less than
65 cents, wheat has been shooting up as
If it had wings.
1t Is peculiarly interesting at this time,
when Mr.. Bryan and the other soon-to-
be-snufed-out lights of the free-silver
heresy have been cramming a variety of
pleasing 6ctions down the throats of
farmers. to call attention to the practical
" Simultaneous rise in wheat aud drop
In silver.
Probably the free-silver folk will say in
regard to the remarkable rise in wheat
about II cents bushel in q month: /:
What did we tell you? It's rs clear rs
daylight: everybody knows that free sill
yer will succeed. hence they ure buying
wheat now, as it will go to dollar at
least after Mr.. Bryan's election. That
why Europe is buying such quantities of
wheat"
Won't Work Both Ways.
1t this Is the free-silver argument for
the advance in wheat, why is it that Eu-
rope is not buying silver at G4A cents an
its price to $1.29?
Mr.: Bryan's contention has been that Il
was impossible for wheat to rise as long
as the gold standard prevailed. Mr..
Bryan knew as well as any of US that
he was lying when he said that, What
does he say about it now. His silence
on the subject is most expansive. Possi-
bly, he is racking his brains to account
for It, and it is probable he may get of
something equally illuminating rs his ex-
planation of the gold import movement.
The fact is, this advance in wheat.

Is esua stunning blow to the free silver

that he cannot get more for his wheat
