to sell goods at home at higher rates
than he can get abroad for his wares.
This resolution. while appe gently rea-

which allows a manufacturer to sell
at nome at certain price and sell
abroad at less price. has its advan-

The Sellers Ontion-

After reference to our foreign
trade for October the New York
Times says:
THE significance OF these figures to
our foreign friends lies in the fact
that while we have almost doubled our
excess of exports of merchandise. we
have exercised the sellers option to
take our balance In gold. and with
something over to show that we were
merely taking our own. NThis year
shows an excess of imports OF gold of
500. 15S,O1S."
Is IL not time for the economist of
the New York Journal OF Commerce
to sit up and take notice? He does
not, or at least until the American
Economist showed him the fallacy
of his views did not. think gold is used
to settle balances of trade.

Will any one claim that the present

in part due to the presence of that
gold which our favorable balance OF
trade enables us to obtain.

part Of this favorable balance OF trade
is due to our selling to foreigners at
a less price than American consumers
are charged. AS If we could sell any
thing to foreigners without employing
