Middletown transcript., 1897-03-27
Ehe seuna Menez Propsranda.

The decision of the silver men to con.
tinue their fight for the so cent dollar,
despite the emphatic verdict Of the peo-
pie in November, Is appropriately fol-
lowed by the organization in New York
Of sound money league, which is to be
national in Its character and IN the
scope Of its work. From this time on
till the next presidential election the
dissemination Of money facts and cor
rect views as to money is to be contin-
ued
The most efficient agency Of the last
campaign was the sound currency conn
mittee of the New York Reform club,
and its publications, each given to
some one phase of the currency ques-
ton, were Invaluable to speakers and
writer's. A sound basis for currency re-
form was thus laid In the minds of thou
sands who were cropping after the truth.
These publications, it is stated, are to
continue. An effort is to be made to
widen the field of operations by class
Of writings of more popular character.
In the south and west particularly hon.
est thinkers are to be supplied with ma
teriaf for progressive thought toward
sound conclusions on the money ques-
ton. 49,
Much was done in six months of
1895 to uproot the erroneous ideas
planted. in five years Of populist agita-
tion. Errors had fourished simply be-.
cause they had not been confronted With
fact. Now monetary truth is. to be as
systematically ineuloated as fallaey was,
and the result cannot but be- most
wholesome. Baltimore Sun.
Middletown transcript., 1897-03-27
Bryan In the East.

Mr.. William Jennings Bryan islgoing
about the country preaching the same
doctrine that he preached during the
campaign in which he figured as nom.
inee for the presidency Of the United
States. The activity Of the free silver
forces is not to be winked at They are
good and persistent fighters :. They re-
alize the fact that new men are entering
into citizenship every year. and that
some of them MAY beEon over to-their
side of the currency question. They pro-
pose to hold the ground they have and
to secure more if they can The FREQ sill
yer advocates should be met more than
half way in this fight that did not end
with the victory won by the sound
money forces last November. Trenton
Gazetta

After -Four Years Of Investigation Japau
Decides to Discard SILVER.
On March l twas cabled from Yoko
hama that Japan had decided to adopt
the gold standard at a ratio Of S21< IL
/, the new standard to go into operation
ia October.
This act, on top Of many previous
ones, moves Japan completely out Of the
ranks Of the semi civilized and into those
Of civilized and progressive nations. II
was not taken hastily, but after two
years consideration Of an exhaustive re-
port made by the japanese currency
commission, appointed In 1898.
This commission found that, while
certain capitalists, especially those en-
ploying many laborers, were benefited
by the falling silver standard, the
wage earners were injured from the
fact that their wages did not rise as
fast as did the prices of what they
had to buy. The report pointed out
what every rational trader ought to
know-that silver standard country
can trade and compete with gold stand
ard countries only after paying the loss
On exchange in foreign trade. However.
as the greater part Of Japan's trade was
with China and India, the two countries
@of Asia still using the silver standard,
the disadvantage on this account was
not considered great
The si1yerites have lost with Japan
some Of their best capital. Of course
they will tell us how british gold"
was used to bribe the government into
betraying its people into the hands Of
the money power. They cannot, how
ever, much longer tell US that we are
unable to compete with Japan because
she uses the silver standard.
The truth is that Japan got tired Of
being second rate nation and of work
ing with second rate tools, and, after
careful investigation, concluded to get
rid of free coinage at ordinary ratios,
which drives gold out of the country as
fast as it can be coined and which re-
suits in the single silver standard, and
to adopt the gold standard at ratio
with silverwhich will permit the use Of
both metals in her trade. It is wise
step. Japan is only one Of four or FIVE.
nations which have adopted the gold
standard during the last 18 moutha

The Question Of Branch Banka..it =
II small national banks are to be en-
eouraged in the, more sparsely settled
portions of the country, the question
arises whether they should be purely
local organizations or branches Of the
great metropolitan banks The old Unit
ed States bank had branches which, by
virtue Of their connection with large
central institution, had some advan-s
tages over the local banks with which
they competed, but were In more than
one instance the objects Of adverse state
legislation. This spirit Of local hostility

perhaps another state, left memories
which still survive and which account
IN part for the opposition to branch
banks. s:t
But the experience of England. and.
Scotland, Canada and Australia, is
strongly and uniformly in favor of, large
central banks with mahy branches. The
banks of Canada arr able to maintain
singular uniformity in the rates Of in
teEest in the great commercial ceuters
and In the remote agricultural regions
because the banks of Montreal and To-
rmto have their, branches in Manitoba
and the Pacific region and can transfer
the surplus capital of one locality to
meet the. deficiency In another as it can
not be done, by wholly independent
bankz The conditions In Canada are j
EerEc much like those Of the United
States, and the success Of the Canadian
banks In doing what we recognize the
Importance Of having done is entitled TO
great weight In our considerations. In 4
Scotland It is well known that the
branch ,systam has greatly favored those
agricultural interests which IN our own
country are go much in need Of financial
accommodation. ssS~
