PERIL OF BOND SALES.

Contract Currency and Load the Nation With Debt.

AN INDUCEMENT TO H0AED MONEY

Consequent Contraction Forces Down Prices mid Embarrasses Business Kntorprise—Tax linrden Increasing t'se of

SilTer anil Issoe of Greenbacks Would Have Furnished Money For tlie War.

We did not suppose that any one would justify, much less boast of, the war revenue bill, which imposes enormous taxation on the business of the country and contracts the currency, making the payment of taxes more difficult and increasing the general distress of the country. The issuance of bonds from time to time is not only loading the nation with an enormous bonded debt, but it is producing distressing contraction. The fact that the first offer of §200,000,000 of bonds was subscribed for nine times over proves conclusively that this bond business wins every time. It would be bad enough to draw $200,000,000 from business and invest it in bonds, and thus keep it out of circulation for mouths before it will return to the channels of trade through the treasury department, but this is not the worst feature of the bond business. The money that was withdrawn from business to put into bonds and was not accepted by the government will be hoarded for another opportunity when more bonds are issued.

The faot that the bonds already issued aro selling at a premium is an additional inducement to hoard money for investment in such securities. The contraction which this hoarding creates continues to force down prices and drive men out of business" and induce others who have money to put it into bonds, which under present conditions is the only possible business that will pay. For the Republican party or any one else to rejoice over or boast of a scheme whioh necessarily puts down prices and embarrasses enterprise, while it loads the country with taxes and continually increases the national debt, is to glory urthe distress of the country which the wretched bill is producing. If the Republican party finds it necessary to kill business and bankrupt the country in order -to keep the silver question filled, their case is worse than that of the doctor who threw his patient into fits and gloried in the writhings of his victim because he could cure fits.

The only redeeming incident of the passage of the war revenue bill was the report of the finance committee of the senate, a majority of whom did not belong to the national banks. They reported for the issuance of §150,000,000 in greenbacks to revive business and to give the people money with which to pay taxes. They also reported in favor of utilizing the $42,000,000 in silver bullion in the treasury and the issuance of silver certificates.

If thi& had been done, there would have been abundance of money to prosecute the war, and the revenues with the greenbacks and silver would have been ample to prosecute the war without the issuance of a bond. In fact, the scheme of a majority of the committee would have furnished more money for the war than the bonded scheme of the banks which became a law. We again call attention to the fact that 25,000,000 of people in the last years of the civil war were able to pay $300,000,000 from internal revenue taxation, while 75,000, 000 today cannot do the same thing without sore distress, if they can do it at all. We protest that because we had cause for war with Spain the government of the United States did not necessarily have a cause against the people, and the war waged against the people of this country by the war revenue bill will produce more distress than the war with Spain wiii do to both countries. If any person doubts this, let him look about and see the situation of his neighbors. If he has money to invest in bonds, they have not. See how they are getting along in his neighborhood, and he will see the workings of the war revenue bill, the so called glorious and patriotic scheme of the banks against the people.

One of the Floppers.

The Fresno Republican objects to The Mail's statement that the Republican papers of this state preach doctrines which they do not believe. The editor of The Republican is new as well as somewhat heavy. Otherwise he would know that all Republican papers in California were rabid advocates of silver in May, 1896, and all goldbugs in less than tsvo weeks after getting orders from headquarters. They were either hypocrites before or after the flop. That is certain. The Fresno Republican is one of those that flopped too.—Stockton Mail.

Records Don't Embarrass.

Mr. Hanua still assumes to run Republican politics in Ohio, and it is reported that he will attempt this year to make a prime specialty of the war. He is one of those public men who do not allow a record to embarrass them. Consistency is a jewel that is not to be fonnd on his fingers or his watch ohain. Mr. Hanna was notoriously a Tory at the beginning of the war with Spain. He was opposed to the liberation of Cuba. He is now attempting to reap the benefits of conditions that exist in spite of him.—Cincinnati Enquirer.

Nothing For Something.

Steve Elkins favors retaining the Philippines because we can now get for nothing what other nations would pay big money for. Steve's ability to get something for nothing is only equaled by West Virginia's luck in getting nothing for something when- sha elected Steve to the senate.

or the

Dropper?

There are cough medicines that are taken as freely as a drink of water from a dipper. They are cheap medicines. Quantity does not make up for quality. It's the quality that cures. There's one medicine that's dropped, not dipped— Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. There's more power in drops of this remedy than in dippersful of cheap cough syrups and elixirs. It cures Bronchitis, Asthma, Croup, Whooping Cough, and all Colds, Coughs, and affections of the Throat and Lungs.

WORDS OF CERNUSCHI.

Neither Gold Nor Silver -"-'i Standard.

PEEF0KM FUNCTION OF MONET,

Popular Errors as to the Use of the Words "Standard" and "Double"—Bimetal lists Do Not Wish to Fix by Force the Value of Either of the Itfetals.

Cernuschi is the father of bimetallism. He was for many years director of the Bank of Paris and a great writei on and student of financial matters. He first used the word bimetallism. Below are some quotations from his book, "Gold and Silver:"

Bimetallic is a term that I use to designate the monetary regime admitting of the use of two metals, gold and silver.

I must confess that it is a little repugnant to me to use the word "stand aid, so unfortunately introduced intc monetary discussions by those who only a few years ago were trying to prescribe gold as money and are today crying anathema against silver money. The word "standard" signifies a model ol measures preserved by the magistrate and to which the measures of all merchants must conform. For instance. France is proud to possess the meter, the oue-forty-ijiillionth part of the circumference of the earth. It is evident that there can be but one model or "standard" of the meter, that one deposited in the archives. It is absurd tc think that for any purpose it is possible to have two different standards. Foi this reason the monometallists take pleasure in making us biinetallists bear the accusation that we are for twe standards. It is a beautiful fashion they have of trying to make us appear ridiculous. The introduction of the word "standard" into the language of finance, far from aiding the intelligence of the pupil by way of analogy, attests that there is a confusion of ideas in the head of the master.

Neither gold nor silver is standard nor model conserved by the magistrate. They are goods, having value principally because they properly fulfill the important function of money. They are goods that we give and receive for other goods. For a sack of wheat we give a certain weight of gold or a greater weight of silver, but we can give some other thing. Neither gold nor silver is standard. The next question comes, "Is man better served by two metals oi one?" And that is the whole bimetallic question. The partisans of the one met al policy allow themselves to be guided by the horror inspired in them by the two words "standard" and "double.'' These words they have themselves join ed together. In metrology, "standard" means "model." In things pertaining to money "standard" expresses neithei the true nor the false it expresses noth ing. It is very true that gold and silver vary respectively in value, but it very false that the bimetallic school wishes to fix by force the value of the one or the other metal.

Let us imagine France and the United States bound by a treaty that obliged both nations to stamp both gold and silver on a basis of 15^ to 1. What would be the results? The relative value ol both silver and gold would become near ly fixed throughout the whole world the adhesion of other nations, of Eng land and perhaps of Germany herself, becomes probable. All nations would be in sufficient accord to utilize the totality of the precious metals that the hand of man will not cease to drag from the bowels of the earth. Let us show to the United States that it is for the interest of that nation and for France and foi the entire world that these two nation* stamp coins of both gold and silver al the ratio of 15^£ to 1. This would nol entail any sacrifice on the United States, while any other ratio would be very costly and impossible for France.— Translated From the French by H. F. Thurston
