why SILVER Has BECOME So cheap

Up to 1871 silver was at a premium
over gold on account of its scarcity and
worth from 81 30 to S1.31 per ounce,
but during the 20 years from 1871 to
1891 such enormous silver deposits
were found and so much silver was
produced that the world could not util-
ize it all for coinage or in the arts,
and its value. and the price therefore
rapidly declined, until in 1851 it fell
to ~ cents per ounce. compelling near
ly every silver mine owner to shut
down and quit, so that very little silver
is being or has been produced during
the last ten years, consequently tire
price has again advanced nearly 20
cents per ounce from the lowest

Robbery of the People.

When it il remembered that America
owns less than one-quarter of the
worlds silver, the astounding and IL.
norant. atrocity OF this proposed rob
berry of the people is made more clearly
manifest Everybody knows that near
~ if not all of the other three-quarters
Of the silver in the world would be
sold to us at two for one double its
valhe, and sent to our minis to coin, so
that in a very short time after the en-
actinent of such foolish law an ava
lahche of silver would pour into this
country from all parts Of the earth, 50
that the government would have to
suspend and repudiate this law. In
the meantime all our gold and much Of
our other property would be owned by
foreign owners of silver, paid for by us
at more than twice its value, which
would mean Overwhelming loss to this
country, hopeless national bankruptcy
and universal panic, putting the cur
rency ON an absolute silver basis Can
any sane man conceive of a more alb
surd or bunkollke proposition?
