Thus, if man loaned $500 he would
receive but s4OO in payment: he would
receive five hundred silver dollars in
payment for the five hundred silver
dollars which he loaned, but they
would be worth in the markets
of the world but four-fifths of
the value loaned. This is condi-
tiOn which would exactly suit the
people who were last year clamoring
for an opportunity to pay their debts
in deprecated money.
The friends of silver are becoming
fewer and fever. Senator Stewart has
told the people that they may as well
fall in line and get their share of
prosperity, as it is useless to talk
silver now: Ex-Governor Altgeld has
dropped silver, and is said to be
organizing paper-moneY party, and
Ex-Governor Boise has denounced the
16-to-1 proposition as suicidal. in view
of the great discrepancy between the
coinage ratio and the commercial
ratios of silver. Many other Demo-
Gratis, being greenbackers at heart.
have advocated free silver as simply a
stepping stone to true tiatiSm, and
now that free silver is becoming so
unpopular they are gradually drop

That great business Improvement
has come to the country since last
July is conceded by all Intelligent

about by its passage put into opera

he 'etOfore been lying idle. and that
gave employment to hundreds of
thousands of hands. 1t caused the
country to undergo change such as

many of the present generation. idle
