The increase In Money.

In several of Mr.. Bryan's speeches ne
alludes TO the increase in the amount
OF money in circulation in this coun-
try, which he is forced to admit has
occurred. but he carefully refrains from
going into the reasons why the volume
OF money In the United States has in
creased. or from any statement show
ing how vast that increase has been.
He also undertakes to advance the ar
gument that the prosperity which has
visited the country Ia due entirely to
and from this to contend that II the
increase bad proceeded from the put
ting In force OF the free silver policy to
which he was committed the same re-
suit would have followed. 1t may be
pointed out In passing that the present
increase In the volume Of money in cir
culation is Of real money. every dollar
OF which is worth In the United States,
or any other country, a dollar in gold .
preeiated, by the coinage OF free silver
dollars. gold would have disappeared
from circulation. and that the actual
volume OF short-weight money left
would have been less under free coin
age than II has been under the gold
standard
But leaving that argument to one
side. n Is sufficient for the present TO
take up the point which Mr.. Bryan
carefully refrained from discussing.
which Is, why has the volume OF money
in this country increased and to
what extent Is the Republican
party responsible therefor7 Mr.
Bryan. In his Topeka speech OF
acceptance. says that the increase
Ia the volume Of currency since 1885
was unpromised by the Republicans
This Is scarcely a true statement OF the
Republican position on the subject. al
though. admitting that Mr.. Bryan is
correct; 1t simply shows that the Re
publican party is better than It. prom-
isos. For the Republican party Is en-
titled TO the credit for the increase in
the volume - currency. The money OF
the United states in circulation has
been increasing at the rate OF tloo.o0a. p
go year for every year since the In
auguratlon u Mckinley. and In aadi-
tlon to this. and Of far more Importance.
the vast amount Of money which was
In hiding prior 70 his inauguration has
come into the channels Of trade. and
has been earnestly seeking investment.
The Increase IN the volume u currency
Is not the cause OF prosperity. as Mr..
Bryan alleges, but the effect OF pros
perity and the restoration Of condolences.
The enormous balances OF trade which
have followed the increase OK trade and

suit Of the Dingley Law. have resulted

in keeping at home money which here
tofore went abroad for the purchase CT
foreign goods. ard in addition thereto
have brought enormous amounts Of
money from Europe in settlement Of
those balances. The tremendous earn
ings of this country within the past
three years have resulted in vast in
crease OF the amount of capital avail
able for investment: American secur.-
ties held abroad have been purchased
by American investors. and the con-
slant drain OF interest on such securi-
ties TO Europe has been measurably
checked, and for all time.
All Of the available capital OF the
country for which profitable investment
can be found is now in use. or its own
ers are eagerly seeking an opportunity
to use It Every dollar is doing nearly
twice the office which II did four yeas
ago, for II Is circulating rapidly in the
channels OF trade, not locked up in safe
deposit vaults. or hidden In old stock
ings. The effective increase in the vol
ume of money has thus been far in ex-
cess of Its actual increase.
Notwithstanding the enormous ir-
crease In the volume OF money in the
country. the present prosperity could
be as rapidly checked as 1t was started
All that is necessary to accomplish this
is that the idea should become thor
oughly disseminated that Mr.. Bryan
has a fair chance of becoming elected.
Capital would be withdrawn as rapidly
as its owners could get rid OF their in
vestments, and money would scuttle
into hiding faster than the American
troops would scuttle out of Manila in
the event Of Bryan's Inauguration.

GRAZING on TIMBER RESERVES.
North Yakima. Wash, Sent. & 1900.

North Yakima. Wash, Sept. g. 1900.
To the Editor In the issue of your pa
per dated September ! there is an arti-
Gle stating that the general land ONCE
had issued an order refusing the privi-
lege of grazing sheep and cattle on the
timber reserves. These orders, however,
do not apply to the reserves In Oregon
or Washington. as all stock grazing on
these reserves at the present time are
there under permits granted by the Sec
rotary of the interior. which gives them
the privilege OF grazing on the reserves
until September q. From the inclosed
circular, issued by the department July
s. 1900. the grazing of stock is not pro-
hibited In Oregon or Washington unless
the grazing destroys timber or Injuries
the water supply.
At the time that Grover Cleveland pro-
mulgated the order forming these reserves
there was certain erroneous information
presented to the department. which stat
ed that the sheep men were running the
forests by burning the standing trees,
and that the sheep were eating the young
and tender trees. This information came
from n committee OF the American For
estry Association, OF Washington City,
who made a flying trip through the Pa
cihc coast states In Pullman palace car
From evidence and Information present.
