Customs Inspector Takes $4,000
Worth Oh Pearls from Man.
White River pearls are figuring in a
case in charge of the New York customs
officials, according to advices from that
city. G. b. Umsted, a passenger on the
New York from Southampton, attracted
the attention of Special Inspector Tim
othy Donohue because he seemed to be
struggling to hide something and keep
control of himself, and the inspector
searched him. In one of Umsteds hip
pockets he found a case containing a lot
of uncut pearls and loose in the mans
other pocket were many pearls, worth in
all $4,000. Umsted had neither entered
them in his declaration made on board
the steamer nor notified the inspector who
looked at his baggage that he had the
pearls.

1T shows conclusively that Mr.. Bryan
IS still in his infancy in his study Of
the money question, so far as it re-
lates to silver, for we might increase
the circulating money in this country
to fifty dollars per capita, in gold, ma
tlonal bank notes, asset currency or
United States currency, if all were
based upon the single gold standard
1t would not tend to increase our ex-
ports OF manufactured products to
the Oriental or other silver standard
countries, nor would it relieve the dis
advantage our producers Of food and
cotton products are now laboring I'M
der IN their exports Of those prod
ucts to gold standard European coun-
tries in competition with the produc-
ers of food and cotton from the sill
yer standard countries Of the world.
It would simply enlarge the difficult
ties we are now laboring under, for
this increased volume of money in
this country based entirely upon gold
would increase the cost Of production
at home through a general rise in
prices, making it more difficult for
our manufacturers to sell to the sill
yer standard countries, and more diff
cult for our food and cotton producers
to compete in the markets of Europe

gold basis, are reaplng a rich harvest
at the expense of our own food and
cotton producers who have to COM
pete with them in the European mar
kets producing on a gold basis and
selling on the same In other words,
the producers in silver standard
countries are enjoying what is prac-
tically an export bounty on all their
exports, while the producers Of gold
standard countries are suffering from
what is practically an export duty
on all their exports in whatever lines
they may compete with silver stand
ard producers.
"Therefore, | say again the only
solution to this problem is to increase
the value of silver, and how are you
going to do it? 1t can t be done by
leaving a wide difference between the
coinage value Of silver and the bull
lion value no matter what legislation
you enact along those lines. To in
crease our ratio so as to make our
coinage value conform to the present
bullion value of silver or anywhere
near it would not relieve the situa-
ton "a particle, for it would still leave
the silver standard countries holding
their advantageous position in their

The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1908-10-01

with the producers of those products
from silver standard countries.
"Therefore, the question or prob
lem will be to equalize the exchange
in money between the gold and sill
yer standard countries of the world,
and this can be done only in one way
and that is by increasing the value
of silver, for the silver standard
countries now Of the world will re-
main on a silver basis so far as all
their internal commercial relations
are concerned, notwithstanding any
apparent legislation they may enact
toward the gold standard, for in
stance, Japan and Mexico, have each
apparently enacted legislation for the
gold standard (and gold standard
advocates have pointed to those in
stances with great glee). But the
fact remains that those countries are
and will remain on a silver basis SO
far as the cost of all internal pro-
auctions are concerned, South Amer
lea, India and China the same and
manufacturing plants are moving to
those countries to take advantage Of
the cheaper cost Of production; while

present attitude on the money ques~
ton has been a subject for considera-
BILE discussion of late, and in CORES
ponding with a prominent democrat
Oh the subject I had occasion to write
substantially the following letter
which may be Of interest to some Of
your readers:
"The quantitive theory is going to
have very little to do in the discus
sion of the money question and its
relation to silver as it is bound to
come before the people in the very
near future.
Mr.. Bryan has frequently reiter-
ated the statement that the large in
crease in our circulating money had
fully indicated the democratic guam
titive theory on the money question,
and that the unprecedented produc-
ton Of gold has taken the silver
question out Of politics. Mr.. Bryan
has made many untenable statements
but that is the most untenable of
them all and it will be great stumb-
ling block for him in any discussion
of the silver question he may at
tempt to make in the future, except
to discontinue its use as money and
that would be fatal for him. But
