FINANCIAL SYSTEM.

Power of the United States to I Make Its Own -v

On May 2(5, 1898, Hon. John F. Shafroth of Colorado delivered a speech in the house of representatives iu Washington which will more than pay tho friends of free coinage to read. Mr. Shafroth gives a freshness to a subjeot which has been discussed from the beginning of tho government, but with supreme energy since 1873, when by fraudulent legislation it was discontinued. Since thjt date arguments, Ionic, statistics, statesmanship of the highest order have been continuously arrayed against the legislative fraud in the hope of reinstating silver in its constitutional rights at the mints, aud the battle is still on and the friends of silver are p-s defiant and as aggressive as over.

The free coinage issue, at the ratio of 1C to 1, is perennial, undying and unceasing, and will continne to challenge the best thought of the nation. While, through tliw perpetration of a fraud, error is on the throne and truth on tha scaffold, it will require time, patienoe, loyalty to the right and the indomitable courage of conviction to make truth and error change places but as certain as the eternal years of God are pledged to the triumph of truth, so certainly will viotory at last bud and bloom on the "thorny stem of time."

The speeoh of Mr. Shafroth is well calculated to inspire the friends of free coinage with courage. The facts he groups and presents may not be new, and the arguments by which he enforces them may bo along old lines of thought, but, nevertheless, their presentation is vigorous and the reasoning cogent, and, as a campaign document, the speech is worthy of recognition in campaign literature.

A Flood of Silver.

The gold standard advocates have sought to frighten the American people with all sorts of bogies, scarecrows, goblins, etc.. to convince them that free coinage would prompt all the nations of the earth to unload their silver bullion, coin, silver spoons, ladles, teapots, buttons and trinkets of every description upon the United States to have it coined into dollars. The speaker quotes Mr. Secretary Gage as saying there is now in the country gold coin to the amount of $896,000,000, and that free coinage of silver would banish it from circulation. This is one of the gold standard goblins, but supposing it to be true, rather than a baseless fabrication, it would as Mr. Shafroth points out create a demand for $696,000,000 of silver coin, or $9.94 per capita. Now, suppose that eaoh inhabitant of tho United States had $9.94 in his or her possession constitutional money of the government, would it be a source of danger? Would it be in the nature of a home wrecking factor— would it shut up mines, close down factory and forge and prove an industrial calamity Grouping the population into families of five, each family would have $49.70. Would that make' the home gloomy Would that amount of silver coin create despondency and despair

Mr. Shafroth effectually disposes of the silver flood bogy. He shows that there is not more than $25,000,000 silver bullion in the world outside of the United States, and that^ since 1873, no one has sought to hourd silver bullion, because prices of the article have steadily declined since that date.

He then proceeds to show that tho country cannot bo flooded with silver from tho arts, that is, from manufactured silver, and in support of the proposition poiuts out that the cost of workmanship, in molding, polishing, gilding and carving and other ornamentations makes suoh silver now more valuable than coin or bullion, anl that a man would be an idiot who would coin into dollars something that was worth more in the shape of a work of art. The speaker is equally strong iu showing that Europe would not dump its silver coin upon tho United States. "There is," he says, "a great quantity of silver in the form of coins existing in Europe. It is said that they are of the value in our money of $1,500,000,000, but the man who says tohat these coins will come to this country in tho event that we open our mints to the free coinage of silver is either ignorant of or ignores one important fact—that is, that the coins of Europe are iu circulation upon a gold valuation, just like our silver dollars in this country are now in circulation upon a gold valuation. What would you think of the man who would take a United States silver dollar to our mint as soon as it was open to free coinage and have it coined into another dollar?"

Again, says Mr. Shafroth, in his argument relating to the flood of silver which causes tho bowlings of tho gold standard advocates.

The ratio at which coins are in circulation in Europe is 16j£ to 1, which makes the coinage value of silver in Europe $1.33 an ounce, whereas in this country the ratio is 10 to 1, which maktts the coinage value of silver $1.29 an ounce. The man holding European coins would lose not only the freignt and insurance iu bringing those coins to this country, but also would lose 4 cents on each ounce of silver coins that ho brings. Those Europeans may not bo so intelligent and bright as aro the Americans, but they know enough not to lose 4 cents on oach ouuee of coins they import to us. Thus it is clear that silver coins iu circulation iu Europe would not be brought to our mints.

But tho gold standard advocates see another gibliu, or a dozen of them representing free silver countries, 6uch aa China, Mexico, Siam, straits settlements, Central and South American states, Persia, Tripoli and Japan. Omitting Persia, Siam, the straits settlements. an Asiatic conutry, and Tripoli, we have Mexico with silver amounting to {55,000.000 or $4.64 per capita Central American states with $12,000,000 of silver, or $2 14 per capita South American states with $20,000,000 of ».'lver, or .83 per capita, aud China with $730,*

000,000 of silver, or |2.08 per capita, and Japan with $34,000,000 of silver, or $105 per capita of population.

Iu the countries named it is estimated there is $981,^00,000 of silver in circulation, on an average of $2.69 per capita, one of the political divisions named having but 83 cents per capita. This being the condition, does anyone not engaged in the scarecrow business apprehend a flood of silver from any one of the countries named.

Aii Abundance of Silver.

The gold standard advocates, (and in using the term "gold standard advocates" reference is made to the leaders atvdmauager8 of the Republican party), such, for instance, as Senator Fairbanks and the lesser lights of the party in Indiana, who would have the people believe that in an abundanoe of silver dollars the country would suffer the direst calamities. But common sense comos to the rescue of all reflecting men and the goldbugs are asked to name a nation that became bankrupt with an abundance of silver, bullion or coin. They are asked to name an individual, or firm, or corporation whose affair ever went into the hands of a receiver because of an abundance of silver assets. When did a farmer forfeit his farm owing to the fact that he had a surplus of silver coin? "No nation," says Mr. Shafroth, "was ever injured by its people having an abundance of the precious metals, and instead of being a detriment, it would produce the greatest era of prosperity in the history of this country." Nevertheless, the enemies of free coinage have for years sought to frighten the people with the bugbear that no greater disaster oould befall the country and the people than to have an abundance of silver dollars. But the people have discovered that the flood of silver predicted by goldbugs has not arrived—and they are anxious to welcome it to their business houses, factories and shops and to their homes. They demand the free and unlimited coinage of silver at tho ratio of 16 to 1, and are not to be stampeded by any of the bugaboos upon which the goldbugs have relied to obscure their schemes. How Millions of Sliver Dollars Could Be

Uied«

Mr. Shafroth points out how millions more of silver dollars oould be used by the people in promoting their interests. He says: "There are in existence $348,000,000 of credit money, called United States notes, the existence of every dollar of which is due to the faet that we have not enough circulating medium without those notes. Every dollar of those notes could be retired by the substitution of the silver dollar or the silver certificate, and thus there would be a demand which the government could create for $846,000,000 more of Biiver. "But these are not all the powers of our government. There are in existence $231,441,686 of national bank notes. The only excuse for their existence is the faot that they are absolutely needed as a circulating medium. Every dollar of that credit money could be retired and silver or silver certificates substituted in place."

Here we have it dearly demonstrated that should the government coin 777, 441,086 additional dollars, aud issue silver certificates to that amount, we should simply retire the greenback and naticfhal bank notes, and substitute silver certificates, based upon that number of coined dollars held for their redemption.

But where such eminently wise and statesmanlike propositions are made, the Koldbugs display another hobgoblin and repeat their platitudes about a flow of silver, etc., and with special emphasis assurt that the United States does not possess the power and ro*"urces required to establish bimetallism Referring to tho Power find Wealth of the United States, Mr. Shafroth epitomizes the faots by saying our population of 75,000,000 is equal to 700,000,000 of the average of the balance of the world—that our wealth in 1890 was $62,000,000,000, against $291,580,000,000, or 37 per cent of the wealth of all the nations of tho earth.

The United States operates about onehalf of the railroad mileage of the world and the freight transported by them waB iu 1892 845,000,000 tons, against 1,348,000,000 tons carried by all the railroads of the world, or more that 69 per cent. The steam power of the United SBates is 14,400,000 horse power, or more than one-third of the world's steam power. The carrying power of vessels used in lake and river trafllo in the United States is 9,300,000 tons, or onelifth of the carrying power of the world on the high seae. Of the world's total production of cotton, 13,330,000 bales of 400 pounds eaoh, in 1896, the United States produoed 10,235,000 bales, or ten thirteenths, and in 1897, three-fourths of the world's crop. The United States produces more than one-third of all the grain produots of the world, the product for 1896 being 3,533,180,000 bushels, against 9,900,000,000 bushels of other countries. We produoe more than onefourth of the pigiron of the world, onethird of the steel, more than one-half of the copper of the world, while in coal we produced in 1892 198,000,000 tons, against 600,000,000 tons of all other countries. Mr. Shafroth continues the comparison in which the United States steadily rises in overmastering wealth, power and resources, and stands confessedly in the van of the nations of the earth.

Why Parade Suoh Kiictif

But why make these astounding disclosures of wealth resources aud power of the United States if they do not deepen and rivit tho convictions, that wo aro capable of determining tor ourselves, all measures whatsoever rotating to the wellaro of the natiiin, aud the iroe coinage ot silver is measure of such vital importance that it is scarcely less than treason to consult any other nation upon the face of the earth as to the policy we should persue in financial affairs.

In nil other matters the United States is proud of its prestige, defiant and independent, but when it coiues to shaping our financial policv the coldbug managers of the Republican party are ready and willing to surrender their country aud all of its vast interests to the dioiatiou of foreign powers and acquiesoe in such humiliations as they choose to impose. But the purpose of the goldbugs to reduce silver to redeemable money in gold coin, is preposterous I eyond measure, and not likoly to suoceed in the United Statos, aud tha Wttie for the right will proceed.

A Painful^ Humor

On the Ankle Spread to the Knee and Developed Into Boils No Trouble Since Taking Hood's. "I was troubled with a disagreeable itching on one of my ankles. In time it developed into boils of which I had five or six at time. The humor spread from my an to iny kneeand was very painful. It baffled lite skill of physicians. For weeks I could n.it bear my weight on thisfoot. An abscess formed and was lanced and the humor broke out on my other ankle and threatened to repeat my former experience. Hood's Sarsaparilla attracted my attention and I began taking it. In six weeks I was better, and began to hope for a permanent cure. I took Hood's Sarsaparilla six months and was entirely cured. I have had no trouble with humor since that time."
