were assigned to each conference, and
the total flow of oratory would fill

Free Coinage Resolutions,


Free Coinage Resolutions.
Salt Lake City, Utah, July ~ The
trans-Mississippi congress has adopted
resolutions as follows: Favoring the
annexation Of Hawaii; favoring the
construction of the Nicaraguan canal;
recommending recognition of Cuba
as nation; providing for a national
board of arbitration and for fostering
the beet sugar industry.
The committee on permanent organi.
zation reported recommending Hugh
Craig, of San Francisco, to be president
of the congress, to be effective at two
o'clock in the afternoon. This hour
was fixed in order to allow Mr.. Bryan to
preside during the debate in the fore
noon Oh the silver resolutions. Then
the congress took up the silver resoIu-
lions, and many speeches were made
both for the majority and minority re-
ports. w. j. Bryan closed the debate
with an eloquent speech in favor of the
majority report.
A substitute was offered for the mi
nority report, which was practically
for the gold standard. The substitute
was lost, there being only five votes in
Its favor. The minority report was de-
feated by vote of 2O7A to s3%. The
majority report was adopted by vote
of 244 to 40. Mr.. Hugh Craig, of Cali
fornia, the new president, then took the
chair, and at 1895 the congress adj
journed to nine o'clock this morning.
The resolution adopted by the congress
is, in brief, as follows:
After heartily commencing the action of
President Mckinley in appointing COM
mission to try to secure an international
monetary agreement and affirming that
such efforts are proof of the failure of the
gold standard to advance the interests and
prospects of the American people, and Of
the fact that a restoration of bimetallism
ts almost universally demanded by them,
the resolution places the congress upon rec
ord as demanding the immediate restora-
ton of the free and unlimited coinage of
gold and silver at the present ratio of
sixteen to one without waiting for the aid
or the consent of any other nation, such
gold and silver coin to be alike full legal
tender for all debts, public and private.

Law of the Double Standardization L
Operates.

Law OF the Double Stan6ard-HOw 1t
Operates.
A debt is promise to deliver some
thing. When one promises to deliver
certain article at a certain time, he not
only clothes this article with debt
paying power, but he also creates de-
mand for this article at the time stated.
The legal tender power is simply
debt-paying power conferred by law; if
it causes that upon which it is conferred
to be in greater demand, it raises the
value. If we confer the same debt-pay-
ing power on two coins, and one be-
comes peceptibly cheaper than the 9TH
er, the demand for debt-paying pur-
poses will fall entirely on the cheaper
coin, raising its value. by SO much as the
demand is thereby increased and lower
ing the value of the dearer coin 10y so
much as the demand for it is suspended,
thus tending to bring the value of the
coins together.
Were the volume of debts small COM
pared with the volume of exchanges, the
effect Of the legal tender power would
not be so marked as it is, for since the
volume of debts is three times as large
as the annual product of all industries,
it SO happens that whenever we bestow
the same legal tender power on two
coins of unequal cost the entire demand
will fall on the cheaper coin, greatly en-
HANGING it's value, and at the same time
lowering the value of the dearer coin.
It was this law which enabled France
for 80 years to maintain the parity Of
gold and silver at fifteen and one-half to
one in the face of enormous fluctuations
in the relative production of the two
metals. 1t was not until the United
States and Germany united with Eng
land (at time when France was pros
trated) to restrict the use of silver as
money that silver began to part with
gold, and the moment we begin to re-
trace our steps silver will again rise

pounds of tea, which began arriving in
this city about July 1. 1t was ordered
when the general impression was that
congress would put duty on tea. 1t
is of the first crop, the finest tea of the
year, and to forestall the tariff the i'm
porters took all they could get. When
the tariff on tea was abandoned it left
the second crop and every other in
ferior grade of tea free to come in, and
consequently there is large stock OF
high-grade tea to be sold at sacrifice.
