Democratic party would, thus indirectly, reduce
our power to pay trade balances against us to
tho merchandise and the precious metals We
possessed. Europeans would take our securi-
ties grudinsly, II at all, and very probably would
return to US those they now hold. Our imports
would consequently have to be kept down TO
the amount which our exports enabled us to
buy, and W. should have no capital to invest In
new undertakings but that which we saved from
our own earnings. Tho result would be a crippling
Of our foreign trade, and q continuance Of tho
dulnoss of home trade from which we now suffer-.
Undoubtedly, the first effect Of admitting ell.
yer to FREQ coinage at the ratio Of 10 TO ] would
DO q wild speculation In all kinds Of property
and merchandise. which, while II lasted, would
present an appearance of prosperity. Everybody
who had money or obligations calling for money
would hasten 10 exchange them for stocks, real
estate, and any iii Of goods they could got,
and those who had no money and could borrow
from people Of less saRacity would do the samc.
The mora q man ran in debt tho larger would DO
his profits, because he could pay his dobts with
the proceeds Of only a part Of his purchases and
have n surplus over. This sort Of prosperity
would. however, DO fictitious and temporary.
AS soon as prices adjusted themselves to the de-
preciated standard tho speculation would coll
lapse, and then would como = reaction, leaving
US worse OF than ever.
