artisans and laborers of whatever class fare far better now than they did then.
 The excerpt quotes also prices In 1871. At that time the general government was no longer in peril of it's existence, it's promises to pay had more assured probability of ultimate payment, in fact payment had become certainty, and arr rangement were being perfected for resumption of specie payments, which were brought about shortly afterward, and the differences in values between gold and paper dollars were very slight, the pre- nlium being not more than twenty five per cent, as against 1S5% seven years earlier. Consequently prices in gold were but little more than in currency. The prices quoted are wholesale, and a little calculation shows that they were even then at higher level than now. At retail sugar and tea are cheaper now than they were at wholesale then while the same rule will be found to hold in nearly all com mmodities. And, as asserted by THE OASIS last week, everybody gets so much more of the circulating medium for the same service than was given then, that he or she can have much greater share of the comforts and necessities of life than did people in like callings get then. Since 1871 has come the great increase in the supply of the money metal; and the imitation in prices, with the enhanced cost of living, of which people are complaining now, has set in since that time. The con- trast or comparison of prices now and in 1S71.1864, show that there has been no very great imitation on account of the redundanee of the money metal. The production of other commodities has kept pace with the inerese in production of gold. Consequently the cause for the ineFeas sed cost of living must be ascr ibed toother factors. THE OASIS bell eyes that mostly they are the ther two mentioned in last weeks rticle, viz; Improved conditions of the people at large and manip- ulation of markets by the trusts As asserted then the latter can be regulated, as it will be. But the other factor will remain, and will continue to operate.

COST OF LIVING IN 1864.

an editorial upon "GOld and High Prices" in which was made a con. trast of conditions in the years immediately preceding the Civil War with those prevailing at present, going to show that even at present high prices the average citizen is fed, clad and housed much better than in the days of that distant time. Since that article was published there has come to the editorial attention a communication published in the Christian Herald which is very Illuminating upon the subject, and is reproduced herein:
 I was clerk in a general mer- ,ehandise store in 1864. We sold sugar from 20 to 30 cents pound during the year. Flour was $20 per barrel; kerosene, $1.25 per gal Ion; rice, 20 cents per pound; and all other groceries in proportion. A spool of cottton was 20 cents brown A sheeting, 80 cents per yard; calico, 50 cents. Four gar ments of mems underwear cost BIO, that would be g now
 In 1871 l began asimilar business on my own capital. 1 paid at regular wholesale prices Il 7.S cents per pound for A sugar; $165 per pound for best Young Tyson tea, and 70 cents for the cheapest; Maracaibo coffee was 20 cents per pound. 1 also paid $260 for thirty barrels of flour-none of the highest standard. Fish and eggs were cheaper than now in the country; all other goods in propor- tion to the above prices. I have sold rye from the farm for $1.75 per bushel; oats for 95 cents.
 1 was in business for thirty-one years and sold during that period about a million dollars worth of general merchandise in a small country store and was familiar with values. sold cook stoves for s60, which is double the value now. Wagons and farm implements were double the price of today.
 The foregoing affords an interest ing contrast with prices at the present. But to get at the real value of the exhibit one must recall that in 1864 the currency was an inflated paper (greenbacks) issued by the government, irredeemab ble at that time, and that gold com manded premium of $l.85, a gold dollar exchanging in Wall street for $285. Making that allowance it will be seen that as expressed in gold values the prices quoted were about thirty-6ve per cent of their faces. Even that would show a difference over present prices that is to the favor of the latter. In other words a given amount of gold exchanges for more of a given commodity than it did in 1864. But at that time the wage earning class, which constitutes the greatest part of the population, was paid no more ir the depreciated cur rency of the day than it is paid now, and the purchasing power oi
