THE SILVER QUESTION
INVASION OF THE UNITED
STATES BY THE ASIATICS.
How They Exchange the Products of
Their Labor for Oar Gold, Which Tiiey
la Turn Exchange for Silver to Hire
Cheap Labor to Compete with Ours.
WHAT THE GOLD STANDARD WILL FINALLY BR! NO US TO.
(By Joseph K. Clark, Butte, Montana.)
The question that seems most to
bother the Americana In regard to tho
Chinese-Japanese situation, la whether
our brothers of the Orient are our
financial superiors or not, and, as they
appear to have the best of the natter
at present, to an unprejudiced observ
er, it would seem that as they know
when they have a good thing and then
make the best of it, they, at least, are
the financial superiors of those anti
quated minds that see nothing but
financial disasters in bi-metalllsm.
If the recent treaty between these
nations is carried out In the spirit as
well as the letter, and to the adapta
bility of the Chinese is added the in
genuity of theJapanese, their progress
during the twentieth century would be
wonderful inderfd.
The Chinese, sine? the time of. Con
fucius, seem to have done nothing but
adhere to ancient customs; the Japan
ese, on the other hand, are a people of
progress, and during recent years have
made gigantic strides In all the arts
and sciences and In commerce.
The first cotton epinning factory in
Japan was established at Kagishima
i more than forty years ago, by Shemazu
Harihisa, the greatest feudal prince of
modern, times.
. For nearly twenty years this was
the only- factory of the kind 4n the
country, but in 1887 the people began
to wake up and since then so many
Other factories have been established
that there are now 580,564 spindles In
operation, which, taken with those
now in process of construction, will
make the total number of spindles
nearly one million.
One of the articles in the Japanese-
Chinese treaty that will be most im
portant to the development of the
Chinese, and important to the world of
commerce reads as follows:
"Japanese subjects shall be free to
engage In all kinds of manufacturing
industries in all the open cities, towns
and ports of China, and shall be at
liberty to import into China all kinds
of machinery, paying only the stipu
lated import duties thereon."
At first, with but a casual thought,

would' soon wrest from. England the
supremacy in the oriental trade

Are we going to follow this example?
Are we going to furnish money, dep re
lands while paupering us .', .
At this time the Roman Empire must
have had men who well might have
been named Sherman, Carlisle and
Cleveland, wHo acted as emlae. to
India and China and made the Roman
masses believe that silver was worth
I less and so demonetized It.

China at that time, probably, were as
ready to buy it at W-"
dollar as their descendant-
k m it of us. and we are not ure
that they even paid that much.
But however, they lost their mon
ey their trade, their power; for when
a nation or individual loses money,
credU goes with it and with the credit
goes trade and power
To this loss Of money aim f-.
put In circulation among their
people, where, at its coined value, it
is aa good as gold, and ha the same
purchasing power.
The gold then goes into the vault
of London only to come back to the
United States to purchase our bonds at
a high rate of interest. The London
bankers take in exchange our sliver at
fifty cents on the dollar, they having
contracted far into the future at that
price, knowing that the production ol
silver is running short.
It may I readily be seen why nations
having a! silver standard do not cars
to join ths gold standard' nations in
international bimetallism.
At present they make a profit of IOC
per cent Upon every dollar's worth oi
gold they exchange, but It they joined
In International bimetallism, they
would be compelled to take In ex
change for their manufactured articles
our sliver on a parity with gold, there
by deprlrng themselves of the hand
some prOfiNhey are In the habit of re
alizing, fot they would have to pay for
our silver 129 29-100 per ounce, this
would leae the gold in our country
and there! would no longer be com
plaints of j a depleted treasury and a
diminished gold reserve fund, and no
need of fufrther issues of government
bonds. 1
Then, too, they would purchase our
raw material, for there would be no
discount 4 their silver money; but at
present, as (we will pay only fifty cents
on the dollfr for their silver, they will
not buy of ps, preferring, naturally, to
deal with sme silver standard country
where thetri silver is taken at par.
This proposition appears to me so
simple, so plain, so capable of but one
solution that It Is a matter of wonder
ment to me that our so-called states
men and financiers should hesitate
concerning the course to pursue.
If this condition of affairs is to con
tinue; if ourj silver is to be used in this
manner; If We have to compete with
the cheap labor of China and Japan,
what is to become of our laboring
class, of our farmers, of all our in
dustries? A friend of mine who has a large
vineyard in California, says that in
consequence of the continued hard
times it did not pay him last year to
pick the grapes, and that rather than
see them rot on the ground he fed them
to hogs. He also said that if the pros
pects were no better this year he would
make no attempt to cultivate his vine
yard, but would allow it to run to
weeds.

The same cause that affects our de

and there is a daily reenrrirjg deficit'
in our treasury. These facts and all
the geld standard arguments and theo
ries that can be invented by the b'aiA

country and Europe cannot overthrow
or refute them. Under the curse of
the British gold standard prices in
this country have fallen, one-half, en

Great indignation is felt among Mis
souri democrats at false reports sent
out to tho effeot that eighteen of the
thir ty -f our delegates to the Obioago
convention are opposed to free coin
age. This report waa sent cut from
Bed alia on the night of the convention
by an Associated Press agent specially
sent on for the purpose. When in
formed that every delegate elected to
go to Chicago was pledged to vote only
for a free coinage man for the presi
dential nominee, and every one of
them a pronounced free eoinage mau,1
this agent simply said that it would
make a good news item to eend out
such a report; and so it was sent over

An Incentive To Work.
From The Columbus, Ga , Ledger.
The fact that Judge Crisp's physical
condition has become such as to make
it necessary for him to return to Wash
ington is regretted by his friends
throughout the state, and since he can
not be in the state for the present, his
absence is an incentive to hie friends
to work for him all the harder.
The reception of Judge Crisp by
Georgia democrats during his recent
visit to the state, has never been ex
ceeded in enthusiasm by that given
any candidate for any office in Geor
gia in years.
The people recognize the fact that
the principle of which Judge Crisp is
an advocate is one. that involves their
welfare to a great extent. , They rea
lize that without its enactment into
legislation, the financial affairs of the
great majority of the people have
reached the lowest point in the his
tory of this country, and that, despite
the protest and the efforts of those
who are interested in, and who profit
by the present condition of finance,
that they must rise in their power and
secure themselves from still further
financial disaster.
In this work the people have a bold,

A Washington special says: It ia

nounced the silver movement's eternise
so often that they had begun to be

was a sweet one to them, but the shock
of the awakening has been to hard on

in their agony and through their or

Every day the evidences of silver
control of the national convention in
crease. The matter is widely discussed
at the capital and the fact that the
worst fears of the gold people will be
realized finds constant indorsement.
Judge Montgomery, of Kentucky,
one of Mr. Cleveland's appointees on
Indian commission and a consistent
gold man, is reported as eaying that
there was no longer any doubt that
the free coinage men would control,
