So toon as the workings struck sold

abandoned and other placet opened, er
If they extci.ded fur any dleiance they
were followed as one might dig a

can be found throughout the ootd belt

that these were aUrndunsd, however,
does not mean that they no loogsr

Silver dollar was the practical basis of
business contracts bstween 17W and
ISM. as the gold dollar was the basis
between 183V aad th# Civil War. He
also showed that Francs could not
bold her guld in circulation agulnst
all ter between ISOS mid 1879. Prof.
Lsiugblin seemed to lltink he lutd over

Harvey is nut always sound, but
here li* very properly answered:
“That Is lust what w« want Uie busl
nsss men of Chicago to understand.
That is bimetallism. Wtieu ooc metal
gets scarcer and dearer. It goes out
and tbe other oome* is."
No bimetallist baa ever supposed
that two metals woo Id necessarily
circulate aisle by tide In tbe aama
locality perpetually. The very conten
tion of Ur* bimetallist Is Umt by tbe
alterants use of ous metal tlte other is
prevented from rubbing debtors mid
depressing entrrprise when it becomes
too scarce and dear The operation of
Um law of demand and supply thus
causes a cessation of the Uendeucy of
a metal to become aearco and doer.
Tbe metals under fire coinage at a
correct ratio will keep eaeh other
balanoed wllb an oscillation of bot a
fraction off per cent. HasioeCa docs

its transfer were but a fraction of 1
per cent, llm gn|d exchange would he
