Twenty years ago the severely con.
servative investor whose liked rul,
was not to seek investments payins
over siX per cent was considered m &C
tive business circles as a mossback
What were regarded as good invest
ments We're then abundant at seven
and eight per cent, and six per cent
securities could be sustained on the
market only when thoroughly gilt
edged. Taking the general business
transactions Of the whole country.
money was then worth more than six
per cent. Entirely new conditions
are now upon US, and the standard Of
value of money is now three per cent
for the same class OF investments
which twenty years ago paid six per
cent. Four per cent bonds OF sound
corporations are now daily sold ct a
premium. and government three per
cents have long commanded a pre-
MUM. Money is today as cheap in
money eenters Of this country as it
is in the great money centers of the
Old World. and there is no likelihood
that the value Of money can ever be
permanently increased in the United
States, although here, as elsewhere,
financial reyulsion will make money
command a high rate of interest for
a brief season. This country is now
for the first time on equal financial
footing with the leading governments
of the Old World as to the cheapness
OF money. The business interests Of
this country must now accept the fact
that during the last quarter of cen
tury the actual value of money has
been reduced nearly or quite one-half
in the line Of legitimate investments,
and this change in the value OF money
has come to stay. When We depend
ed wholly upon foreign capital for the
construction of our railways and the
development of our wealth, We oould
well afford to invite foreign money
here by offering double the rate Of in
tcresS TO be commanded at home. but
foreign capital has enabled US to
reach such a degree of complete devel-
opment that today we are on the sam
financial basis with the money centers
Of the Old World, and there can be
no enduring reversal Of that equality.
The conservatives today who once re-
sarded six per cent as the highest In
terest money could command with en-
tire safety now regard three or three !
and one-half per cent as the standard
Of absolute safe investment. Others
will now, as they have always done, !
seek higher profits from money, TAX |
ing the risks which are inseparabIy |
with such operations, but in |
the end they will dnd that, while at /
times realizing more for money than its
standard value. the losses reduce the
revenues Of their Investments to the
newly-established standard. This
greatly and permanently reduced rate
Of interest is one of the most hope
Iul signs Of American progress, and it
,omes at time when there is every
prospect Of an enlargement Of legiti-
nate industrial, commercial and trals
advancement entirely unexampled in
he history Of the republic.

an internal remedy, acting on the DiooG
