"The Iowa Democrats on Aug. 7 de clared against ,free coinage of .silver at 16 to 1 by an overwhelming majority. The followin'? is a short quotation from tho speech of Hon. Nathaniel French," chairman of the convention : "At what ratio shair we coin tho metala so that a dollar of one will equal a dollar of the other in intrinsic and exchangeable value? When we want to know how much things are worth, we go to the markets and ; find out. We don't hunt up a congressman to ask the value of eggs or spring chickens or grain or anything else, or if congress has de clared what their value shall be. We know that tho more declaration of con gress, or even a constitutional amend ment,' could not fix the price of a single egg. In like manner, if we want to know how many ounces of silver an ounce of gold is worth, we must go to tho bul lion., markets instead : of - the revised statutes. - Thomas Jefferson could not. have won undying fame as a statesman and leader of the common -people if he had not been endowed with an abun dance of common sense, and over 100 years ago, when congress sought hia ad vice as to the ratio to adopt for the coinage of gold and silver, he said : Disregard legal proportions altogether. Inquire- into the market price. He knew that opinions should not and could not ba controlled by legislation. He knew that- the basio laws of .trade were more" powerful than the laws of nations and that the multiplication table could not be altered by statute. - "To so coin gold and silver that both shall circulate together by reason of parity of value we must follow Jeffer son's advice and inquire the price of gold .and silver in the markets of the world. If we find one ounce of gold will buy 82 ounces of silver,.that is the ratio to adopt. To put in the silver dollar more than 82 grains of silver for each grain of gold in the gold dollar would at once drive our silver money from cir culation, and to put in less would ban-- ish cur gold. The loss of either would be a misfortune, and to retain both we must adopt the mercantile ratio, putting in our coins no more and no lees than is" needed to make ono of equal value to the other.

Free Silvei-ites Shoiild Study Tills History - of Production jiud Prices Since 1791. What "tho Kecord of Crops Prores Sil yer Has No Eifect cn Prices, -V The iepread of free coinage sentiment in the Boutheru ctates has been almost entirely due to the belief that the low J price .of cotton was caused by the adop tion of the gold standard. The main argument of tho advocates" of a 50 cent, dollar jin this section of tho country has been tbafc the alleged demonetization of Bilver ivas the cause of the marked fall in cotton during the past 23 years. ' A bulletin, just issued by the depart ment of agriculture giving .. the history of the production and price of cotton for over 1 00 years proves conclusively that the use cf silver as money has nothing to do with' the decline in value of cot ton. Beginning with 1791, with a crop of. 8,889 bales, worth on an average 26 cents per pound ; in the United States, the production rapidly increased during the net ten years to 210,526 bales, and the price at the same time advanced to 44 cents. In 102 the -crop was 241,228 bales, of which 120,619 were shipped to Great Britain, but, owing, to the great ly increased supply and a large stock 154,000 bales on hand at tho close of the year, the price dropped to 19 cents per potjind in New York. - - ; . In spite of this remarkable, decrease in price the crop increased to 340,000 bales in 1810, worth 10 cents. In 1816 the crop was 457,565 bales, but the enormously : increased demand l from Great JBritain forced prices up, to 29) eents, and the next year to 8 4 cents. These high prices caused an' increase in the acreage of cotton, and by 1820 the crop "vyus G06.Q61 "bales and .the price dropped to 17 cents. The production in creasing, prices fellin 1822, to 11.40 cents, and in 1827, with a crop of 957, 281 bales, and .with 502,360 bales in stock, to 9. 29 cents. ; By 1834 an.increase in the European demand for cotton had advanced the price to nearly 13 cents, with a crop of l,205,394bales.' .For the next five years prices fluctuated widely, averaging from li to 20 cents per pound, and when, in 1840, the crop amounted to 2,177,855 bales, the average price, went, down to 8.92 cents. The great crops and the ac-. cumulation of large stocks in Liverpool caused ia still further decline, in 1845 reaching ; 5 cents, the lowest recorded price, with a crop of 2,394,503 bales. By "1850 prices had advanced to 12.34 cents, and for the next ten years aver aged about 11 cents, the crop increasing to 3,655,557 in 1856 and to 4,861,292 in I860.- . . " ' Tho war which broke out in 1881 broughi on the "cotton panic," which lasted to 1866, when prices went as high as $1.89 pr pound. The close, of tho war left "many of the cotton growing states in an impoverished condition, and it was iiotuntil 1876 that the crop was as large as that of I860. In the mean time thie price had fallen with the grad ual. increase in production until in 1871, with aVop of '4,352,317 bales, it aver aged 16.95 cents. In 1872 cotton was badly damaged by excessive rains, and with a prop of only 2,974,351 bales, the price reached 20. 48, - In 1S80 the crop wa3 5,761,252 bales and the price had fallen to 12.02. . The increased European demand for a time prevented prices falling to the level of the decade previous to the war, but by 1889! the stock on hand began to in crease beyond the demand, and in 1891 the unheard of crop of 8,652,597 bales forced the price down to 9.03 cents. In 1892 the crop was 9,035,379 bales, the stock on hand amounting to 2,253,000 bales. I Prices fell to 7,64 cents, but ad vanced in 1893, when on account of un favorable weather the" crop fell off to. 6,700,365 bales, to 8.24 cents. An in crease to 7,549,817 bales ' in 1894 was followed a decline in price, and the greatest crop on record in"1895, amount ing to about 9,476,435 bales, brought down the price to 6. 20. , The following table gives the compar ative crops and stocks of cotton and the lowest and highest prices in the United States for two decades, showing that prices reached the lowest: point during the years when the accumulation of sur plus stocks was the largest, and that those were the years of largest crops : 1841 1850. - Crops in Surplus in Middling np- "United Europe at land per lb. in States, close year.

Larger crops have re sulted fn falling 'prices, and Iwhen in a few years with an -increased crop prices advanced it was the increased Europe in demand; which meant that the crop was not larger as compared with! consump tion, which regulated the price. . The record further proves that in the year 1845, when the silverites claim that sil yer was the unit of value, the price of cotton in the United States was lower than at any time in the history of the country.' . In view; of these i facts we should hear no more of the prjice of cot ton as a reason for debasing our currency by putting it on the silver standard.

J ' In "a speech delivored ' before a frea silver convention at Grifiin, Ga., Sena tor Morgan of Alabama rchfifchod the stale theories of the silver standard ad vocates, and closed his exposition of the free coinage gospel with the declaration that 'the silverites-. demanded "equal rights fori - all, special privileges to none." This doctrine of equality before the law is one which appeals .to7 every fair minded American," and it is the be lief that I silver is denied privileges granted to gold which has led many to Bupport the agitation for free coinage at 16 to 1. But there is no ground for such claim. On the contrary tho proposition that the government should coin into money at a fixed ratio all the silver of this or other countries which might be brought to the mints is .a direct violation of the principles of equal rights. - All that the government does for gold is ta stamp it with a certificate of its weight and fineness. The legal tender quality of gold coin add3 nothing to its commercial value. If tho government were to stop the coinage of gold tomoj: row, the value of that metal wonld re main the) same. And tho adoption of gold as the standard of values has hot increased tho value : of the, products of the gold miner. The same could be-said of silver were it merely proposed to coin that metal at its true commercial value. The most extreme "goldbug" of the sil verite 's invagination would not Object to free coinage of silver dollars if each coin contained a full dollar's worth of silver. The objection to such action on the part iof the ! government is that it would involve a great ; and useless ex pense foxf mintage, as the commercial value of silver continually changes, and it would be necessary to make new coins whenever! silver became cheaper or dear er. But the demand of tho free silver ' advocates; is not for the coinage of both" metals at; their commercial value, but for the unlimited coinage of silver, worth only 50 cents, into coins which Will bo legal tender in payment for goods or of debts equal to gold coins, worth twice as much. In other words, they seek to compel the government to give one class, the producers of silver, the rigbt to have the value; of their, products doubled by" setting a fictitious value on it ! This is what free ..coinage - at 1C to 1 really means, and if adopted it would make the silver miners a privileged class at the expense of the whole people. !, ; That this is true is recognized by, all the leading Populists, who have de manded that the government should go fartherand give the owners of staple farm Jprodnct3 the right Jxj have their crops stored in government warehouses and to receive money ' based on them. In this the Populists are consistent with their paternalistic vjiews, but very in--cousistent with the Jeffersonian doctrine of equal! rights. The) true remedy for any violation of 4h5s great principlo is not the granting of special privileges to tho farmers as well as to silver miners, but the repeal of all class legislation and steatlpast opposition to all financial schemes jinvolving government aid : to any special interest. HATRED OF ENGLAND. The "English. Oc topes" the licit Customer For American Products. ' ; Coin resorts to the familiar and well worn appeal to tho prejudice which some people in this country are supposed to feel against England. The people of that country have the same, religion, the same laws and the same language as ourselves, r We did fight in years gone by, but we are now united by theu&lose ties of business and friendship. The English, octopus, as Coin calls it, is real ly a country that is our best customer for wheat; for cotton, for beef, for pe troleum and for, Yankee "notions. He says it '!feeds on nothing but gold. '.' In fact, however, it feeds on the wheat, the coffee, the! sugar of South America, the tea of China in short, the natural or manufactured products of every part of the world, all of which it pays for. American investors draw geat sums in royalties from this "octopus. " Iti does not get any gold worth speaking of from Asia, from Africa or from South Amer ica. Whatever gold it does get is a nat ural product and a source of profit to THE BRITISH SCAEECROW. those who produce and export . it In short, the! whole octopus business, like the other: delectable illustrations in "Coin's School," ia a' delusion and a snare. The worst thingthat could happen to this country would be the ruin of Eng land. No merchant would look with satV isfaction on the ruin of his best custom er. : :;;;y -.' : . j Another favorite argument of the free silver advocates is that England first adopted the gold standard and has grown rich by it, and Jbthat, therefore, it must be bad for other countriea ' Let us note two things in this connection: ; First. England first adopted trial by jury and tb-i writ of habeas corpus. She first enforced" the principlo of freedom that no man should be deprived of life, liberty of 'property but by the judgment of i his peers or the law of the land. Shall we discard these sacred muniments of ; liberty because they .are of English origin? -j I -. i ' f Second. ' If England has prospered under the gold standard, -why not the United States? Certainly no country ever became"" really prosperous by tho ruin of its neighbors.

' PC ' SILVER "AND SAVING'S DANKS. - Free Coinage Wonld Have the Effect of ' Wiping OntOne-half the Deposits; A tailor who should insist on his cus tomer accepting a suit of clothes worth only half as much as the one paid: for would te" considered either a fool or a rogue. The agitators for a debased cur rency which would permit debtors to pay their creditors ih dollars worth one half or those 'they, borrowed heed not complain if plain people use plain lan guage in speaking of their scheme. The silverites clair-they are being unfairly abused when they are Called dishonest or repudiators. A single illustration wil show whether they are not correctly de scribed. ' There are , in the : various, savings banks of this country deposits amount ing , to $1,880,744,000. ; -This large sum represents the little savings of years by working men and- women, small ; busi n ess men and f armers. On the passage of a free coinjigo law. these deposits would be payable m silver dollars worth only 50 cents aaid having a purchasing power one-half 1; lees .than our present dollar. As the Imoney on hand banks keep very little they would not be able to pay their depositors ' in 7 gold, even though they wislied, as their loans would be payable in silver, and of course their debtors would pay in the cheap dollars. The result would infallibly be that one half of the entire savings bank deposits or tno countryj would bo wiped out,' practically stplef from their owners and given to those "who had borrowed them, Would not this be dishonest? 13 it not simple repudiation? -And, if so, what are the men wh advocate it? I . : Silver States Hoarding Gold. - Silver states d not Seem to have any jjicjuuiuu Hgiuiisc goia in carrying on their own financial affairs.;" Utah banks hold twenty -one!! times as much gold as silver, Arizona b?nks nine times . as much. The Colorado banks possess over $5,000,000 in gcfld and only one-tenth of the amount in silver; While this is eminently judicious it is not conclusive reason for piling! up a mountain of sil ver in the Usited .
