The industrial department recently es-
tablished by the Erie Railroad Com
pany has for its purpose the further de-
yelopment of the territory traversed by
the railroad. The company seeks to in
crease the number of manufacturing
plants on its system, the bringing of
raw material and resources to greater
utility and the general development Of
the commerce of it's territory, so that
the prosperity and growth of the towns
on its lines be augmented and the traffic
returns of the company be increased.
The department has all the territory
traversed by the railroad districted in
relation to resources, adaptability, mar
kets. and advantages for manufacturing,
and can advise with manufacturers in
relation to the most suitable locations.

men from 1876 to 1896, that nothing
could stop the fall of prices except a
vast increase in metallic currency
was vindicated through the misfor-
tunes of the outside world which
had no harvests between 1896 and
1890.
That the old insistence that the
nominated precious metals because
there could not enough of both be
mined to answer the worlds natural
demands for money, was and still is
true as holy writ.
From the foregoing only one ration
al conclusion can be drawn; namely,
that the sensible thing for the great
commercial nations to do is to have
their representatives meet and fix an
international ratio between the two
metals for the world to accept in eX-
change-that is, to do substantially

Prof. Andrews and Silver.

The old time goldbug papers are
eXulting greatly over dispatch
which read that Prof. Benjamin An
drews recent said that he committed
an astounding mistake and an in
axcusable error" in predicting a few
years ago a diminished production of
gold and a disastrous fall in prices
in consequence thereof. If Professor
Andrews said that, then he merely
defeated in 1896 he concluded that
the silver question was dead and has
ceased to consider current events
since. He forgets a great many
things, among which may be counted
the following:
That prices in 1896 had been re-
duced to the level of 1913 before the
first grain of gold was discovered in
the Old Suffer mill race.
That the advance in prices has not
been due to the increased product
of gold, but to the fact that a starry
ing world bought of the United States
food products enough to draw from
the outside a balance of two thou
sand millions of dollars in the four
years after 1896.
That while that gave to the United
States a volume of money sufficient
for our needs and raised prices ac-
cOrdingly, 1t was at the expense of
foreign nations, and their distresses
~ hot
our have passed away.
That Notwithstanding this great in
fluX Of gold, the manipulators who
brought about silver decentralization
are still not quite happy, as instance
this from the New York Even
ing Post: notwithstanding this in
crease ($114,OOO,OOO during the past
twelve months) in the quantity of
metallic currency, there is a percep-
tible tremor in the stock market,
every time that small shipment is
made to Europe or to South Africa
That while We are exulting over
the results of the adoption of the
gold standard God save the mark
we are just WdhlHS up 10 lue ldCl
that in the countries where half of
the working hosts of the world are
gathered the people have no money.
They cannot use gold in their daily
transactions, and the trade which
our continental roads and the ships
owned by those companies want is
not forthcoming. They can get no
traffic worth speaking of from those
countries, because they are so abject-
ly poor.
That had all the silver mined in
the United States and Mexico since
the discovery of the Comstock lode in
1859 been loaned to China at the old
ratio of 16 to 1, it would not have
given the people of that country Sc
per capita; but with that amount
they would have given our ships
commerce enough to enable our flag
to dominate the trade of the Pacific.
