NEWLANDS CONDEMNS THE
CURRENCY BILL.
HE EXPLAINS THE PRESENT
PROSPERITY.
SAYS Thai II WNDEAIES TINE BTMtTAliisTS-
FINANCES SINCE the YEAR 1898.

Representative Newlands of Neva-
da spoke at length in the House to-
day in opposition to the currency
bill. Mr.. Newlauds traced the his
tory of the country through the
period of depression commencing in
1898. The panic of 1898 was not
caused by the coinage of silver
under the Sherman act. There
were two causes for this panic. One
was the constantly diminishing
price which this country was receiv-
ing from the export of its farm
products, the price of these products
being largely determined by the
prices in silver countries, whose ex-
ports were stimulated by the low
price oAsilver. Another cause was
the failure Of the Mckinley act to
meet expectations of the farmers as
a revenue producer. The free adj
mission of sugar took away large
annual revenue for which no suffi-
cient substitute was offered by the
Mckinley bill, and the bill which
was intended to cure the evils of a
surplus revenue presented all the
disadvantages of difcit revenue.
The country therefore was drained
IN two ways: The national treasury
was drained of its accumilations by
adeticlt-producing revenue bill, and
the country was drained by an
adverse balance of trade owing to
the fact that it's agricultural pro-
ducts has been lessened in their
debt-paying capacity. Accompany
ing this came a demand for gold in
Austria, and the green backs and
treasury notes were used by foreign
hnanclers as a means of drawing
out the gold required for the
Austrian treasury.
Mr., Cleveland, aided by the
banks and the metropolitan press,
took advantage of the situation to
raise the false cry that the Sherman
act was the cause of existing con-
dltions, and the banks themselves,
IN their keen desire to stop the
coinage of silver, created clamor
which in turn caused run upon
the banks. The withdraw of de-
posits and the constant diminution
OF bank credits was a natural result.
The Cleveland administration hav-
ing come into power, its first act
was to repeal the Sherman act, and
The second was to pass the Wilson
blll. No more unfavorable time
could have been taken for the lower
ing of the tariff wall. The very
purpose of this act was to let more
foreign goods in; every foreign pro
dnct which was admitted displaced
$" much American labor, and thus
" REIMBURSEMENT of the labor question
throughout the country was forced.

Oleveland's administration was sub i,

THE CLAIM OF THE BIMETALLIsTs.
The increased production of met
alic money had relieved the situa-
ton and proved the contention of
bimetallists as to the quantitative
theory All that intelligent bimet-
allists claimed was that the world
needed more money; that all the
gold and all the silver thus far pro-
duced had not been sufficient to
meet the worlds demand for money;
that the world was more likely to
get a sufficient supply from two
sources than from one; that the
vital question was sufficient sup
ply; that the rise in prices and the
increase of prosperity consequent
upon the larger production of gold
during the last two years and the
increased prosperity in this country
consequent upon the addition to its
money volume of nearly three hun
dred millions, obtained by favor.
able balance OF trade, have proved
the contention of the bimetallists
and vindicated their theory.
BASIC MONEY CONTRACTED.
The vice of the proposed action
was, Mr. Newlands claimed, that
the Republican party now proposes
to take advantage of the increasing
production of gold for the elimina'
ton of the existing stock of silver
in this country from use. The met
alic stock of the country consists Of
about nine hundred millions of gold
and six hundred millions of silver
fifteen hundred millions in all. This
is the only basic money, the only
money of final redemption.
1t is true there are greenbacks
and national bank notes in exist
ence, but these are merely promis
sorry notes payable in metallic mon
ey, issued either by the government

of credit by the banks, and thus a
hundred millions additional cash
in the banks meant possible ex-
tension of credit to the extent of
five hundred millions which thus
increased the cheek transactions of
the country. The panic has been
caused by withdraw of cash from
the banks, which, in turn, COM
PEELED the banks to call in their
loans. The loans made by national
banks have been diminished from
over two billion dollars in 1892, to
one billion eight hundred and
seventy-one million in 1893, and in
1898 these loans were increased to
two billion two hundred and four
teen millions, and in 1899 two bill
lion four hundred and ninty-six
million dollars. In other words,
between 1893 and 1899 national
bank loans had been increased over
six hundred millions, five hundred
millions of which was accomplished
between 1897 and 1899.
This statement is itself proof of
the contention of bimetallsts, that
admitting the assumption of the
monometallists that most of the
transactions of the country are
accomplished by checks as dis,
tinguished from cash. 1t is also
true that the aggregate amount of
checks depends upon the amount of
credits issued by banks, and that
the amount of credits issued by
banks depends upon the cash with
in their vaults, and the increase of
five hundred millions in two years
of bank credits and the consequent
multiplication of exchanges through
bank checks is directly tracable to
about one hundred millions of addi-
tional cash deposited in the ma
tional banks.
Though no accurate data can be
obtained as to State and private
banks, it is safe to say that their
credits had increased to nearly the
same extent as that of the national
banks, and it is fair to assume that
within two years the bank credits
have been increased at least eight
hundred millions by the deposits
with the banks of less than two
hundred millions of additional
money, secured by favorable bal
ance of trade, for it must be re-
collected that of the three hundred
millions of increased money secured
during the past three years at least
one hundred millions had gone in
to the federal treasury, and it is
therefore not a basis for bank
credits.
The increase of prosperity during
the past two years demonstrates the
correctness of the theory entertain
ed by bimetallists, Wis, that all
other things being equal, prices will
depend upon the quantity of money
in circulation; that an increase OF
the money volume meant higher
prices and diminution of the mon
ey meant lower prices.
The demonstration of silver was
started in 1873 at time when the
production of gold was lower than
it had been for twenty years. There
was no expectation at that time OF
an increase in the production Of
gold; on the contrary, the general
opinion was that the output of gold
was steadily diminishing, and yet
when more metallic money was
constantly required to meet the in.
creasing wants of business, it was
nrnnosed to demnnetize the metal

crease of money throughout the
United States by the repeal of the
Sherman act, when more money
was needed; the other was indus
trial, involving the lowering of the
tariff wall and proportional sub
stitution in our own markets of
foreign products for goods produced
by the labor of our own people.
During all this time confident pre-
dictions were made of an immediate
advance in prosperity, to be caused
by increased confidence. None OF
these predictions were realized, and
the Republican party came into
power upon the promise of a pro-
tective tariff measure and of an in
creased volume OF money to be Sc
cured by free coinage of silver
through international agreement.
AS soon as Republican victory
was announced it was declared that
confidence was restored and that
the wheels of industry would i'm
mediately move. The whistles of
the factories throughout the country
heralded the coming of renewed
prosperity and activity, but Con-
gress met in the following March
without the realization of this con-
fident prediction. 1t was then in
sisted that as soon as the protective
tariff bill was passed the wheels
would move, and so the Dingley bill
was framed and allowed to take its
course unobstructed by the opposi-
ton and aided by the friends of
sill yer in the Senate. The bill pass
ed, and again the whistles were
sounded, but the wheels did not
move, and Congress adjourned in
July 1897, without any change in
the condition of the country.
SHORT CROPS ABROAD.
1t was not until after Congress
adjourned that the changes took
place. The cause of it was the great
demand for our agricultural pro-
ducts, caused by short crops else
where, the result being a favorable
trade balance which brought within
few months many million dollars
of gold to us. This was followed by
large exports of manufactured goods
mainly produced by the very trusts
now complained of, and which con-
stitutes so serious a menace to in
dividual enterprise as we'll as to the
compensation of labor. The gold
trust produced the industrial trust.
The cause for their organization was
falling prices and the necessity of
cheaper production, and so the var
ious industries were combined; i'm
proved machinery was secured mid
die men were dispensed with; clerks,
statesmen and officials were CONSOLE
dated and the result was cheaper
ed production which sought the
markets of foreign countries. Thus
the great demand for our agricul-
tural as well as our manufactured
products brought to this country
within three years very nearly $780,
900, 900 in gold, and the increase in
prosperity can be directly traced,
not to the repeal of the Sherman
act, though the latter was a factor
by doing away with deficit of
revenue, but to the increased vol
ume of money caused by a favorable
trade balance which restored the
per capita circulation in this
country which prevailed prior to
1898, Wis, 1875 per head-the per
capita during intermediate years
having fallen as low as 1913 per
head.
