liean in one column had an article
declaring that the gold standard had
reduced prices of all products and

the adjoining column was an article
clairuing that Mexico was enjoying
great prosperity because the silver
standard enabled her manufacturers
to secure cheap labor and cheap raw
materials, and then sell the product
for the Il ,h prices prevailing in the
United States under the gold stand-
ard. The Republican is a jewel: bns
