Hubbell is a “gold man” now, but he wrote some good things about and for silver coinage in 1894 as published in the Elkhart Journal, the new paper published by Elder Woolpert at that time. Here is only *one extract among the many that may be given as products of his brain and pen on truism then, and hence, truisms now: “Again, silver could not, and therefore, would not be a cheaper money and evqry owner of bullion were allowed to have it coined. It follows almost as an axiom that a man would not sell silver at 70 cents an ounce when he could have it coined and pass current for 51.29 per ounce. But the increased value would result not alone from the stamp of the mint, but would follow naturally under the law of supply and demand, because free coinage would vastly enlarge the use and therefore increase the demand for it. “Again, monometallists claim that a dollar in value should be based upon the amount of labor in procuring the metal coined into the dollar. Accepting this proposition as true, where does it lead them? It costs more than 70 cents worth of labor to mine an ounce of silver. At the current prices in 1893, 300 silver mines closed down because, if they should have continued operation every ounce of silver would have represented a lols to them in its production. Monometallists have yet to prove that it costs relatively less to produce 16 ounces of silver than one ounce of gold. They can not prove it because it is not true. If, at present there were any profit in producing silver, the men who have many millions of dollars invested in mines and mining machinery would hardly allow their mines to lie idle and lose not only the interest on the .investments but the principal, as well. “Whenour nation used its bonds 'to carry on the war, they were made payable in “lawful money.” In 1870 when this debt was refunded, the new Issue of bonds was made payable in “coin.” Why? Simply to insure to the purchaser of the bond that he would not be compelled to accept in payment of these securities the same money which was esteemed sufficiently good for the farmer and laboring mao. By this means “coin” became a money of increased purchasing power and the bond holders’ interest went much further in buying this world’s goods. “But he was not satisfied. Coin, legally, meant both gold and silver. How if silver could be dispensed with as money and shorn of its money power, gold would, of course be that much more valuable. In other words, to demonetize silver, meant to cheapen or lower prices and wages. The next thing, therefore, after securing their principal to be payable in “coin” was to demonetize silver and the principal of the bonds became of course, payable- in gold and nothing else. The farmer will notice that very soon thereafter not only silver, but all the products of his farm began to decline in price while his debts and obligations did not decrease iu amount. The laborer will notice that he has suffered a gradual decline in the scale of wages. Is the loss thus suffered compensated in the saving of interest on the national debt caused by the refunding act? To be sure, the laborer is told that his lower wages will buy as much as his former high wages, but he is not told that the income of the "bOliff holder will buy three or four times as much as formerly and that the capitalists and those of fixed incomes receive relatively three or four times as much of the increase of the world’s wealth as does the laborer. “And the farmer who is the base of all wealth, what of him? In all their ingenuity they have not been able to give him any solace at all. In other words, the - demonetization of silver, by lessening the volume of money, has caused just what it was expected to do; namely, the unequal and unequitable distribution of wealth. “The conclusion must be, then, that the price of silver has fallen, or more properly that gold has risen only because of adverse legislation concerning the monetary use of silver.”

Lena Cooper, 1534 Lorain St., Cleveland, Ohio, writes as follows: “At 12 years I became afflicted with St.Vitus’ dance. The muscles were affected so that I lost control of my hands and feet. I could not hold a knife or fork and would sweep the food from my plate. At 16 my trouble was aggravated by fits occurring periodically. During these four years my father took me to various doctors, but they all failed and pronounced my case incurable, or refused to treat me for the same reason. lat last found a cure in Dr. Wheeler’s Nerve Vitalizer. A few bottles restored me to perfect health. ” The nerves are the foundation of life and should be treated by Dr.Wheeler’s Nerve Vitalizer, which acts directly on the nerve centers, strengthening them so as to enable the system to throw off the disease.
