The Philadelphia Mafiufa&urer,
(Rep.) says:
"Any man who has studied arith
metic only so far as long division,
can perceive that to destroy half the
standard money of the world jnust
necessarily be to force down prices,
The American people know that such
destruction was accomplished in 1873,
and everybody knows that prices
have been falling ever since."
If the above be true, then do we
not want free coinage, for it is an un
disputed fact, that since 1873 more
than 500,000,000 silver dollars have
been coined, whereas from the foun
dation of the government to 1873,
only a little more than 8,000,000
were coined. If then, as above stated,
the act of 1873, which increased the
coinage of silver 400 per cent, per
annum, produced lower prices, would
it not be reasonable to expect still
lower prices should we coin silver to
an unlimited extent?

THE ESCAPE OF WEALTH
The overthrow of the income tax is
over need. Great and rich corpora
tions, by hiring the ablest lawyers in
the land and fighting against a petty
tax upon superfluity as other men
have fought for their liberties and
their lives, have secured the exempt-
ion of wealth from paying its iust
share toward the support of the
Government that protects it
In accomplishing this they have
obtained from the Supereme Court
a reversal of its decisions lor thirty
years past. More than that, thev
have persuaded one of the Judges to
reconsider and reverse his own opinion
of a month ago. If Justice Shiras
had voted as he did on the first hear-
ing, the law would have been sus-
tained.
The people at large will bow to
this decision as they habitually do to
all the decrees of highest courts,
But they will not accept law as jus-
tice. No dictum or decision of any
court can make wrong right. And it
is Aot right that the entire cost of the
Federal Government shall rest upon
consumption. It is not right that
wealth shall pay no more than poverty
towards the support of the National
Administration. Justice requires

try to establish or even advocate the

Don't amagine that you are alone

but when the time comes will cast
their votes. It will be well for the
platform makers not to lose sight of
these Demociats when they select
their lumber lor building the platform.
These Democrats will not vote the
Republican ticket; they will not vote
the Populist ticket; they may, how
ever, refuse to take the hook, if it is
baited with the Populist free and un
limited coinage worm. The Demo
cratic party will lose nothing by
standing for sound money. Dem

It appears as if the free coinage of
silver is about to take the country.

things that could befall the people
still stand by their convictions and re
fuse to follow the multitude into the
danger to which they are leading.
These are somewhat lonesome and
considerably at a discount now but
the day is coining when they will see
their vindication and the people who
now misjudge them will then respect
them for their present integrity and j
foresight. It is hard to row even tern-!

brings its own reward in time. !
Statesville Landmark- !
Silver lias dropped in value since
1873, just as many other commodities
have dropped, because the supply '
of it has increased faster than the de-
mand. In 1873 the world's produc-!
tion of silver was of the value of $8r,- J
800,000. In 1892, even when meas-r
ufed by its lower price per ounce, it "
was of the value of $196,459,000, or
nearly two and a half times as much
In 1870, three years before the de-'
monetizarion which the free-silverites
claim is alone to blame for the fall in
price, all the mines in the world only
yielded silver to the value of $52,575,- '
000, or only about one-fourth of the
value of the silver supply of 1892. j
There is no commodity whose pro- '
ductjon can be multiplied by four
and its previous price maintained un-'
less the demand for it is also multi
plied by four. Baltimore Sun. .
COIN'S JJktLtSIOX ON COINAOE.
Lyman J. Gage has publicly de
clared that he was never present at
any so-called lectures, as is asserted
in P-Mn' book "napes 2 ;-i8). His
presence there being only a deceit, it
may not be amiss to SHppose that the
argument used by Coin was entirely
mythical. Coin laid down the prop
osition that "the commercial value
of any commodity depends on supply
and demand." Then follows the most
extraordinary statement to explain
the demand for money:
"When the mints of the world are
thrown open and the government
says, "We will take all the gold and
silver that comes," an unlimited de
mand is established. The supply is
limited. Now, with an unlimited de
mand and a limited supply, there is
nothing to stop the commercial value
of the two metals going up in the
market, except the government say
ing "Hold on these metals are lor
money we fix the value at which
they circulate." (p. 27).
Of couree, to believe this state
ment one must be absolutely ignorant
of what a mint does, and the relation
of any government to its coinage.
A mint does not buy gold and silver
to turn into coin. But what is per
fectly simple is that opening the mints
to free coinage does not furnish un
limited demand for gold and silver;
it only furnishes a limited demand
for one or the other of the two metals,
whichever is cheaper as compared
with the legal ratio. To coin money
does not make a demand for its use
it only changes its form, or, so to
speak, does it up in a-package for
convenient use. Take, for illustra
tion, the case of wheat and flour
Wheat, being the material out of
which flour is made, to merely grind
wheat into flour does not constitute
the demand for flour. Four is only
the form into which wheat put in order
to be best marketed and reach the
person who will use it. So with gold
or silver. They are the materials
out of which coins are manufactured
at a iiin-.i,
ifi-ihC- iorniinto
coins does not create any new demand
for them, except that arising from the
convenience of not weighing and
assaying the purchase. It is then an
oosoime iaisenoou too to say, as
"Coin" said above; "The governments
say, "We will take all the silver and
gold that comes." Such nonsense is
ol a piece with the fiction that Mr.
uage was present, both are utter
fabrications.
The curious application of "Coin's'
absurdity to the act of 1873 is that
under free coinage of both gold and
silver at 16 to 1 before 1873. "an ua
limited demand was established" for
both gold and silver. The truth was
that from 1840 to 1873 there was no
demand for silver dollars in the circu
lation whatever, and the demand for
Silver from 1S53 to 1873, was mainly
for subsidiary coins. "Coin" so Ire
quenUy turns to the experience of
our country prior to 1873 that it will
be opportune to put on record here
the facts as to the amounts of gold and
silver respectively coined at our mints
during this time.
That is, from the foundation of the
United States to 1873 only 8,031,
-o :i jn
jo suver uoiiar pieces were ever
coined. Why? Because the market
and legal ratios could not be main
tained alike for any length of time
Now, if silver was the only unit since
1792, wl.yMid we get on with only
$8,03 r, 2 58, doing the business of a
great coijintry for eighty years? If
gold was not also a unit, why did we
coin $1,010,900,314? What was the
use of coining such enormous amounts
of gold if it was not a unit'as well as
silver? - j
And these figures show conclusively
that free coinage of b th gold and sil
ver at 16 to 1, which existed by law
in the United Statse from 1834 to
1873, did not create "an unlimited
demand," or anything like it, for sil
ver dollars. They were scarcely

The speech of Secretary of the
Treasury Carlisle at Covington, Ky.,
Monday on the financial question is
a dispassionate and very strong pre
sentation of the claims of the sound
money men. He clearly shows that
the recent panic was a world-wide,
not merely a local, monetary distur
bance; he incidentally, by his com
parisons, makes a good showing for
president Cleveland's administration,
as against the one oi President Har
rison; he outlines the history of gold
and silver coinage since the beginning
of our government; he exposed many
false statements regarding the de
monetization of silver in 1873: he de
fends his own record on the silver
coinage question, whichjhas "been re
cently attacked; and shows that the
inauguration of the free coinage . of
silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 will put
the country on a basis oi silver mono-
metnliisnv drive nnt tr nld
' I tfe prices of the necessaries of life to
the farmer, even if it does increase the
price of his products, and, finally,
bring about a worse derangement of
government credit and of the business
of the country than has ever before
been known. Secretary Carlisle looks
at this complicated question from an
elevated point of view, as it were,
where he has a wide sweep of vision,
and his arguments for a sound money
are laid down with a force which
should be, and doubtless will be, felt
in the present agitation of the financial
question. Charlotte Observer.

The New York Tribune, chief of ca

strained to acknowledge the glad re
covery of business. With delightful
inconsequence it says that the people
are beinning "to enjoy the fruit of
two overwhelming Democratic de
feats," and "hearty congratulations
are in order for the substantial im
provement in business which has, al

tribute to the new tariff that its most
maligant enemies are compelled to
acknowledge the revival in trade un

ence, in less than nine months from
the day of its passage. In less than
nine months more they will wish to
forget that they were ever in favor of
