YOUNG COIN'S SCHOOL.

f was a uasseneer on a triln which I
left Cincinnati for southern points the
other day. Oq the flfst trip which the
news butcher made through the train
he sold fix copies of "Coin's Financial
School" In one coach. In a ride of 3t)0
miles be sold three tr four more copies
i that same car. Sdveral persona to
whom U was offered told him. that thay
had real it.
"I was an international biroetalliat
until todav," said a man In the seat
ahead of The Constitution man, as he
laid down the little volume in which he
had ben kborbed for three hours, fie
addreed h'w fellow traveler who
shared the same seat and with a glance
backward included the two of us who
wnri i- the seat behind.
"I favor bimetallism by international
agreement," my companion observed.
If you will read th's book you will
change your views," said the flrsc
speaker.
k I would not allow the sophistry of a
little book like that to intlueace nv
judgment in any such way," number
two retorted.
"Hut. you would be convinced by
logic, would you not ?"
'Mot assuredly I would."
"What is the character ot that r;ok
wnich everybody U reading and wh'ch
my old friend, J. R. Buchanan, ol O.ni
lia, says is being read on trains to a
disgusting extent?"
"It purports to be a report of a
series of lectures which Master Coin,
an imaginary young and expert flnaa
cieT, delivered iu Chictgo. There are
six lectures. Coin besrius with a class
of boys, but after his first lecture their
fathers attend. Well known men from
Chicago ar d from all over the country
are in these audiences and a9k him
many questions. The goldbugs trv to
corner him, but he turns the tables ou
them evrry time. His arguments are
simply unanswerable. And thuy ire
o simple that an i'literate man cia un
derstand them. It is a biok th:it will

best educational literature on finance

Thm they launched into an arju
nicnt which drew auite a group of pis-
senger about theii. It soon bectrti
evident that the mi on my seat was s,
latr. a good on, too, as I learaed
laier, the counsel, for more thia one
corporation and a btnk director. The
other man was aminufacturr from tbe
iron district t Pennsylvania.
We could not alone keep the ratio
of the two metals stable. They would
tluctima and the gold would all be
dr'vea out of this country,?' the lawyer
declared
The ratio did not vary apprec' th'y

swered. There was no' trouble ibiur.

but for fifty seven vetrs after that the
two metals west along hand in hand.
An ounce of gold never would bring

til John Sherinia struck t!ie ,nidnij:!it
jissassinV blow at silver fn 1873.
-"And n for silver coming in frou
oth-r n'ioos ana driving out g'ln,
uohl could not go any faster than it ha.
betn going the last few month', du-ing
which time we have bought 1GG,000.
OOJ of it."
LET THE SILVER DELTJQE, CCCE.
"I contend that wo would be flooded
with silver by the world," exclaimed
the lawyer.
in what war Q'i!d this dr-eadfql
catastrophe occur ?"lLqutred the Pno
gylvanian, finding blandly.
"Tbe silver stream would just na
turally Aw ovrr here and the g!d
stream. would ll.w to Europe."
"Supposing what you say wou'd
come true, we would get three billion
dollars in silver for our half billion f
gold. We would get six for one, in
which event I say with Alec Stepe.rv,
of Georgia, 'Let th,e sUyor dal'ige
come',"
Wuicli is most to be feared a n ..!
of silver or a drought of gold?"'
The cro vd laughed and the lawyer
flushed
Of course, I was" speakiug figura
tively. But a billion of silver wonld b
Daid for our westers wheat and ymii
iron ana anotner oiuion tor --v,..
billion for tne cotton
oivin and the other billion wou
1 Akm o
through various channels of trade,'
"A blUion of silver for our ootton
crop, eh? Let us ee-ft.0Q0.t)Qo bales
for a billion dollars. That weald be
$110 a bal 22 cent cotton.' That
would be all right la tbe south,
know."
Of all the tllver in the world out
side toe United States, only $300,000,
000 is held by gold countries. Silver
countries, bimetallic eountrie. are not
goicg to part with their tock."
"I have just been reading in th New
York Sun that as far back as 1834, slxtj
years ago, the Uolted States made a
change looking to the final adoption of
Highest of all in Leavening Power Latest U. S. GoTt Report-
the gold standard," quoth the lawyer.
A SILVER DOLLAR THE UNIT,
"t he Sua U very much mistaken
The fi'st colnagn act of tbe United
Scares was passed by cngress in 1792.
it provuiti lor tne coining of dollars
or units, each to be of the value of the
bpaulsh milled dollar, as the game Is
now current." The PennsvlvanlanJ
her opened his book and read the lan
guage exactly as It is In tbe act.
oecretirv uamrt-in found by assv
log tbe Sp i'ilsh milled dollar that it
contained 3711 grains oi Dure silver. So
the nnic of our mor.v w;is declared by
congress to be the . si I vr dollar cou
talnlug371i grains of pure sliver aud
that never was changed until 1873.
The g ld eagle was to be of the value
of ten silver units and tbe gold dollar
of the value of one silver unit, Ttve
change in 1334 in the gold dollar made
it a tritl j lighter, but the silver dollar
continued to be the unit until silver
was assassinated iu 1873.
You i-puakof silver being assassi
uat?d. Why do you use that expres
sion?" My legal friend was p3sing from the
iSiervative frame ef mmd and was pro
ceeding to examine thp witness for the
silver -side. It doubtless occurred to
more than one that tbe attorney had
not prepared his case.
"Because, as history shows and as
Master Coin points out, silver's friends
aever dreamed that its very life as
primary money was being destroyed.
I'ke gold owners of England secured
die demonetization of silver so stealth
ily that Speaker Blaine nor a represen
tative, nor a senator, Hooper andBher
man and, perhaps, one or two others
xcepred, knew what was being done.
I President Grant stated afterward that
he would
have yetoed the bill had he
Jknown it."
MORE GOLD THAN SILVER.
" Vhat is the world's production of
gold a year ?"
"Coin quotes the directJor of the
mint as authority for the statement
that it Is from 105,COO,000 toJ150,000,
000 a year."
"Aud what Is the production of sil
ver ?"
"Less than $200,000,000 annually,
but from 1S50 to tbe present time tbe
world has produced $1,300,000,000 more
geld than silver. Hence, overproduc
tion is not a factor in question of par
ity." . "Coin says all the gold in the world
could be placed In a room wenty-two
feet square and tweatytwo feet high.
It could all be placed in tbe Chicago
wheat pic and not interfere with the
bulls and bears. Here are the figures
and you can calculate for yourself."
The calculation was examined and
was admitted to be correct.
"Is it not a fact tnac back of this
coinage movement are the silver mine
owuers who are giving 'It the greater
part of its vitality ?"
"Not at all," replied the Pennsyl
vania "Look at this a minute." He
turne the pages of Coin until he
eameiji the pictures of some Chicagdans
wnmhave invested money in silver
mining. One man' silver cost him $100
an ouno", another $200 a third $500
fourth $1,000 and so they ran, $5 000,
$10 000, $20 000 up to Potter Palmer,
whose silver cost him $50 000 an ounce
to mine.
"Potter Palmer's silver cost him
$50000 aa ounce to mine arid he pro
bably gpt about $1 an ounce for It. As
C isays, some make uaotiey at it and
.nbersMo not. Some gold does not
CbstlO cents an ounce to get It out. But
suppose some silver mine owners would
make money if the mints were opened ,
l4 silver again. It would make wheat,
corn, and cotton higher. The cotton
crop of 1893 at the price of cotton of
1873 would have been worth to the
south; $490 000 000 instead of $IS4 090
000, ihe amount it did bring in 1893
twenty years later."
OUBANNCAL INTEREST GREATER

"L;r.cn to this from Master Coin,"
said the Pennsylvanian as be opened
the book and read here and there, skip

some of the most succulent passages:
"if ic is claimed we must adopt for

Then we will have no gold with whicQ

foreclose on us then and evict us as
the Irish landlords do their tenants.".
A tall mountaineer from the Big
Smoxey section stood towering above
us. He was a rapt listener. This
picture stirred him and with all the
earnestness ot intense but untutored
character he exclaimed:
"By gum, gentlemen, I don't know

HUGHES ON DANIEL.
Lewlsburg (W. Va.) Independent.
Judge Robert W. Hughes, of the U.
S. Court for the Eastern district of Vir
giria, has recently written a very In
teresting letter to the Norfolk Pilot, in
which be speaks in the highest terms
of Senator Daniel as an authority oij
the silver question. He says of the
Senator that he is t ot a sciolist on any
subject, and is as deeply read in finance
as in his speeches in the Senate on
the subj !Ct of .metallic money vbei-ig
quoted everywhere, especial y by text
writers. He savs he prefers Major
Daniel for Senator, above all the men
in Virgini a Democrats or Republicans,
Judge Hughes is a 'Republican, bur. a
very enthusiastic advocate of the white
me:al, and has himself wrltnen exten
sively on the subject His opinion of
S'uv Daniel, as an authority on the
money issue, is priicularlv interesting
just now, seeing that th Senator will
kj a member of the popo.ed iuterna
iional monetary eommisMou.
Upferring to the interest England
has In the maintenance of the gold
standard, the Judge quotes from a
London banker the following senti
ments uttered twenty-five years ago
and before our own fatuous
demonetized silver:
Congress
If we break the French ratio of 15 J
to 1 and the American rati" of 16 to 1,
v demonetizing silver, it w.ii do more
for England than conquests by arms,
on both land and sea, for a thousand
years. England is a creditor nation.
Her greatest rival I the United States.
Ihe American Republic will sooi rival
us as a creditor nation of tho world.
The only way to prevent it.te to keep
her in .debt to u. We can dp thar.
only by cheapening her prpducts; If
we can induce tbe United States and
other nations to demonetize silver, this
is what the result will be: We will use
their cheap silver to buy wheat and
cotton in India and all values will fall
in proportion to tbe fall ef wheat, cot
ton aud silver. Tbe American pro
ducts must meet this com petition from
India, and down will come all their
prices. We will destroy silver, one of
lite principal sources of tbeir wealth,
nnd with tbe general fall in values we
ill destroy their balance of trade with
M.nrop!.. With their wonderful recu
r Alive powers, if they still force a
o-: moe of trade In their favor, we
m'.-t overcome it by creating a balance
of woney in settlement by means ot
gold interest on bouds and loans.
What w mid make the United States
the dominant nation ot tbe world would
be her net balance of tra le. At bi
metallic prices for tbeir cereals, backed
with large onulnctlon of gold and sil
ver, they would be richer than Eng
land and all Europe. In another quars
ter of a century. They would own
tneir own debts, and all tbe world
.uM ty paying them interest. We
utiut d:roy tui balaoce of trade ia
tM-ir favor. Te do it we mut demon
ttiati the'r silver. It H the key to tbe
tkuAtio.i, All tbe rest will follow."
