TffE SILVER QUESTION. The Author of “Coin’s Financial ' ‘ School’’ and Prof Laughlin taiaft In Joint Debate nt the Illinois dnb In Chicago, Before na Audience Only Limited by the Ball's Capacity. Chicago, May 18.—A stirring polit- j leal encounter took place last night hardly paralleled in the west since the j famous struggle between Lincoln and j Douglas on the eve of the civil war. The platform combatants were two j giants of the opposing sides in the rag- j ing financial controversy—J. Law- j rence Lang hi in, professor of political j economy in the university of Chicago, ; the favorite authority of President I Cleveland, and William II. Harvey, author of “Coin’s Financial School.” There were many who wanted to hear the argument who were disappointed, as the auditorium was filled to overflowing. The spacious rooms of the Illinois club on Ashland boulevard were crowded to almost suffocation when the president of the club, Dr. Homer M. Thomas, announced all in readiness for the dress-suit gladiators. The proposition to be discussed was read as follows: "ioo/Md, That the United States should at once enter upon the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, independently of the action of any other nation.” Mr. Harvey, it was stated, would speak for an hour in the affirmative and Prof. Laughlin one hour and thirty minutes ip the negative, Mr. Harvey then having thirty minutes for a rejoinder.

Mr. Harvey'i Argument. la opening for the affirmative Mr. Harvey said: “The first'reason why I am in favor of Independent action by this country is that we should not be subjected to the influences of the governments of Europe. If people can be reduced to poverty and the prosperity of the . United States can be ruined by hanging to the financial policy of Europe, then we can be reduced to the same condition of financial legislation as a war of conquest would reduce us.” After referring to what he termed the plutocracies of Europe, and stating that the few control clash legislation, while the masses are hewers of wood and drawers of water, he said: “Now, if financial legislation is one of the classes of class legislation by which the many -are robbed and the few are enriched, by which the lemon is squeezed, then it is one of the institutions of the European governments that we, as a nation of people, republican in form, should declare our independence of. That is the first reason why independent financial action should be taken by the United States." The speaker went on to say that this country can have an independent financial system without any reference whatever to the balance of the world. There was no such thing as international money. Whut he was contending for was the opening of the mints to the free coinage of silver and the establishment of bimetallism on ike^>rineiples thafwere adopted by statesmen who had in view the interests of -no class, but of all, the people. Scientific bimetallism. He defined scientific bimetallism thus: d. Free and unlimited coinage of both gold and silver: these two metals to constitute the primary or redemption money of the government. 2. The silver dollar of 371 % grains of pure , silver to be the unit of value, and gold to be coined into monev at a Tatio to be changed if necessary from time to time, if the commercial parity to the legal ratio shall be affected by the action of foreif* countries, 3. The monev coined from both metals to be legal tender in the payment of all debts. 4. The option as to which of the two moneys is to be paid in the liquidation of a debt to rest with the debtor, and the government also to exercise that option when desirable when paying out redemption money. 6 He then referred at length to the advantages given gold over silver by the unlimited coinage of the former, silver having a limited demand and being a commodity measured by gold. Silver had been shut out and was token money. He wanted it restored to the unlimited demand it enjoyed prior to 1873. He would give silver the same privileges as gold. Restoring to it this unlimited demand would cause the value of silver to rise as compared with gold. He would again make the standard silver dollar the unit of value, as it was before 1873. ir'would thus be $1, and the bullion in it would be worth 31. As the number of grains •of bullion in fl would have the right to walk into the mint and be coined into tl no man would take less for it when he could have it •coined at pleasure into tl. He would make •gold coins of the value of so many silver units or dollars as the law existed prior to 1873. Twice when the commercial ratio between the two metals made it advisable to change the legal ratio the change was made by recoining the gold coins. This was was in 1834 and 1837. v He would make both gold and silver legal tender in the payment of all debts and would repeal the law of 1878 and the Sherman law ef 1890. He would allow no discriminations to be .made between the legal tender character of the *Wo metals.

Tte debtor would be given the option if there -was any preference as to which of the two metals he would use in the payment of a debt. Togive this option to the creditors causes the dearer metal to be demanded and it thus grows dearer and dearer and a parity is permanently broken, and the gap grows wider and wider. When the debtor has the option x^hese two metals will oscillate close to a parity and substantially at a parity. This oscillation is the elasticity that metallism gives to primary money. DEMONETIZATION. 'Mr. Harvey then referred to the demonitiza"tion act and the scandals which were rife at - the time it went into effect, and said that at this period by national legislation a money trust was formed. Silver at that tim« was at • a slight premium over gold. Silver then began to fall, as measured in «gold, and the breach* in the com: ercial parity ■orthe two metals gradually widened. With resumption, gold asserted its importance, and •silver correspondingly declined. Under the dMand-Allison act of 1878 creditors began to make their notes, bonds and mortgages payable in gold, to the exclusion of all other forms at legal tender money. This increased the demand for gold. Silver had ceased to be a primary moaey. The speaker asked: “What is the remedy?” and replied: “Let us have nothing more to do with the men who have assisted in tying the hands of $his great nation, and delivering its financial policy over to the gold gamblers of the world. ‘The bank of; Rothschilds in England is now behind the United States treasury. They are our financial agents; our financial managers. We -are paying them the princely salary of 88,000,<•00> for each six months of their valuable services. We are in the hands of the pawnbrokers -of Europe.” • Th« remedy, he declared, was to restore silver; put it on a legal ratio with gold; repeal all .laws discriminating between the two metals,< and put silver in competition with gold as -quickly as possible'/’ Continuing, he said: “Silver once in competi•tion with gold, and this will take some of the -demand off or gold. To that extent it will lower the value of gold. The extra demand silver will raise its value. Everything will nee in value at once. We can show gold we do not depend on it for money. It will be our slave. It is now our tyrant. It will then come back and beg us t^take it as in when it—one of these gold dollars—was

worth tvro cents less than a silver dollar. Ow tnde with foreign nations is only 4 per cent of Mr busnoM. sad oar domestic business is tt per cent., ot all our busidess. Which do you want legislated in the interest of, the M per cent, or the 4 per cent*’’ CHS KGS TBS RATIO. In conclusion Mr. Harvey said: “If as on

Prof. Ladchlln’i Reasoning. Prof. Langhlin, replying for the negative, began: ‘‘Apart from the well understood use of money as a medium of exchange, money is used like a common denominator of value with 'trhich other articles are compared. As a measure of value, it serves in a similar way as a quart cup may serve as a measure of capacity; and as there is not needed a separate cup for every quart of milk m existence. one can measure hundreds of thousands of goods by comparing with the same standard of measure. There is no need of an amount of money equal to all the goods in existence. The measure of value Is that in which prices are stated and debts are paid, provided the measure of value is also made a legal tender in a|ny country. It is evident, then, that the quantity of measures is not so valuable as the unvarying stability of the standard of the measure." , He stated that goods, when expressed la terms of a common denominator of value, are to-day exchanged in enormous quantities, mainly without the use of any money. an increasing quantity ■wing less important with The necessity of of money is grot the development or this system of exchanges. From ft.' per cent to 95 per cent, of transactions are performed by this machinery without the use of money, and recent investigations made by the comptroller of the currency show that 54 per cent of retail transactions are similarly performed without the use of money. Prices since 1873 had not fallen because of lack of money. Silver has fallen about 50 per cent., as compared with a very modest fall in the nrice of commodities. Silver does not have the same purchasing price in 1895 as in 1873. Hence, free coinage can not be urged as a just means of paying debt. SINGLE SILVER STANDARD. Prof. Laughlin said: “Since we undertook the purchase of sjilver in 1878 it has falien about one-half in value, although we have Durchased about t60O.i0O0.00O. It is perfectly evident that there is ho use in the United States acting alone to bolster up the price of silver when we have failed even in coucert with the Latin union. Free coinage of silver at 10 to 1 means the single silver standard, Stir day the market ratio between gold and silver is nearly 34 to 1. If we had the free coinage ofj silver at 16 to 1 there would be the premium oft about sixteen ounces of silver as a premium on withdrawing every ounce of gold coin in circulation. The free coinage of silver under such conditions as exist to-day would not mean the concurrent circulation of both gold and silver. It would mean the immediate adoption (jf the single silver standard. Free coinage of silver would not increase the quantity of money. Since gold must De inevitably driven out the silver coinage would result in a diminution in the quantity of money. “To adopt free coinage of silver at 16 to 1 when the market ratio is but 31 to 1 would mean the instant retirement from circulation of nearly 1600.000,000 of gold circulation. It could not change prices therefore by merely increasing the amount of tne medium of exchange. The way it would act, however, would be to change the price of everything because reckoned in a cheaper medium than that of gold. As free coinage of silver would inevitably result in a rise!of prices so it would immediately result in | a fall of wages. Its first effect would be tjo diminish the purchasing power of all ovft wages. Free coinage of silver would make all the articles of the laborer's consumption cost him 100 per cent, more, unless he cajn get a rise in (his wages by dint of strikes andiquarrels and all the consequent dissatisfaction arising from friction b tween the employer and employe. BAD FOR DEBTORS,

“It is usually supposed mat free comage of silver is in the interest of the debtors. I think it will be found quite the contrary. Not only will it prevent a person in distress from being able to borrow money when he needs it, but M will create conditions which will make it impossible for the debtors to meet their indebtedness. But greater than all objections is that of public dishonor and repudiation. If free coinage of silver were to be passed it would mean that every depositor in a savings bank, every investor in a loan association, every holder of a life insurance, every recipient of a pension,, would hare their dues reduced one-half. Is it possible that there is somejthing behind this freecoinage scheme not really discovered? Is it possible] that it is aimed at the great mass of the industrious and intelligent, and is it really intended to serve the interests of the very rich and of great corporations? The bonded debt of me railways in the United States is about $$,000,000,000. If free coinage of silver were introduced it would enable these railways to pay off their debts with what is now equivalent to $3,000,000,000. They would thus be relieved of the necessity of paying to. small investors who luve taken their bonds one-half of what these corporations now owe them.” Prof. Laughlin concluded as follows: “Extraordinary as is the proposal for free coinage, it is in truth only a huge disease. It was bom in the private offices of the silver kings, nursed at the hands of the speculators, clothed iu economic error, fed on boodle; and, as sure as there is honesty and truth in the American heart, it will die young, and be burled in the same ignominious grave wherein lies the now forgotten infant once factious as the rag baby.” ! | .FINISHING ARGUMENTS. Contrary to expectation, the time after the main addresses was not occupied fully by Mr. Hanrey. Instead, it was agreed that he be accorded fifteen minutes; then Laughlin to reply in fifteen minutes, and Harvey to conclude in five minutes. As a result the finish was largely taken up with goodnatured chaffing of each other rather than serious argument. .'f-—'■ '.-. The Elephant Liked HU Toddy. It is a curious thing, and one which 1 have never heard satisfactorily explained, that animals and fowls, and almost every] [living creature upon which the test has been made, take to intoxicants. Instead of mankind alone, as Byron had it, being distinguished from the brute creation by his ability to gat drunk, the exception is largely favorable to civilized manhood. I thought of this recently when present at a private experiment on savage and domestic animals. Without any preliminary education the most savage animals, the bear and thd lion, took to raw whisky with ail the avidity of old topers., The elephant drank it by the bucketful, and sighed for more. Any domestic animal will do the same. It upsets a good many preconceived notions.—Pittsburgh Dispatch

DUN’S COMMERCIAL REV.EW. tto Cold 8«asp Pot a Cheek m Befall Trade, Tot Uw Velum# of Ueaaeetle BmImm la urwUf than boat Tatar and Scarcely Late than la 1899, whoa Boat, neaa Hrolce Down and KfchugM Pdl llolow the Normal Arairage. NEW York, May 1A—R. G. Dun A Co.’« weekly review of trade, issued to-day, says: The severe cold snap, with extensive frosts, and in some states snow, has fortunately done little damage to the grain crops, though much to fruit, but has considerably retarded retail trade. The best news of the week is the advance of 10 per cent, in wages by the Carnegie works, followed by the Jones-McLaughlin establishment, and evidently implying a similar advance by many other concerns. The Illinois Steel Co. ifc starting its furnaces without granting the demands of employes. No adva nee has been found practicable in the woolen mills, where conditions as to prices and foreign competition are very different, and about 10,000 workers are still idle at Olneyville, where the works should produce 600,000 pounds per week. In other departments of labor troubles are not serious, and the demand for manufactured products increases. With material and steady enlargement in domestic trade, there is still great want of employment in the interior, for money which comes hither, $8,500,000 during the past week, and with the millions distributed by the syndicate on bond account, stimulates i speculation. * Accordingly wheat haa risen five cents, although the re? ports of injury by frost do not appear, upon Rifting, to concern any considerable proportion of the growing grain. Western receipts for two weeks of May have been 2,$17,305 bushels, against 2,600,298 last year, and Atlantic exports 8,509,484 bushels, against 4,555,101 last year, being reduced by the advance in price less than would be expected because of generally-current reports of decrease in acreage. With only six weeks of crop year left, the stocks in sight indicate a heavy surplus, if not as l^rge as some western statisticians estimate. * Corn has advanced only one-half cent, though apparently injured more than wheat, but the acreage gives promise of a yield of 2,000,000,000 bushels. Cotton is an eighth stronger, in spite of the fact-that 9,461,081 bales had come into sight last Friday, which is over 400,000 bales more than the largest crop ever recorded. Northern spinners have taken a little less than 3 years ago to date, when the crop was over 9.000. 000 bales, but at least 500,000 more than they have consumed as yet, and foreign spinners hold nearly 800,600 bales more than they have consumed, while commercial stocks here and abroad are 246,000 bales more than three years ago. The manufacture Sales of wool continue remarkably heavy, for the past week at the three chief markets 5,856,740 pounds, and for two weeks of May 11,059,750 pounds, against 11,767,750 in the same week of 1892, the last year of full demand. In that year the sales of domestic were 5.962.000, and ihis year 5,681,750 pounds. The msmeets are quiet, almost unprecedented apathy for the season prevailing; bat because stocks of foreign wools held here are remarkably large and are offered at prices lelatively lower than those demanded

uy western growers. Advances in wages of iron workers by Mr. Frick, of the Carnegie com* pany, are as significant as were the advances in wages of coke workers by the Frick Qoke Co. Apparently it is a strategetic movement in the great battle between iron producing interests, although it is generally interpreted as proof that the outlook for trade is sufficient to warrant a material advance in wages and prices. Most furnaces in the Mahoning valley have also advanced wages, and Bessemer iron has raised to $11.40 at Pittsburgh, with gray forge to $9.65. Finished products are in larger demand, but as yet not enough larger to cause any general advance in prices, and proposals of combinations in merchants’ steel, structural iron, wire rods and out nails, with the existing combination in steel rails, show that the market does not rise of itself. The shoe manufacture is doing remarkably well as usuul, though operations for the future are materially retarded by the advances in leather and hides, which many begin to think have gone somewhat too far. Foreign trade for the week shows a heavy decrease, 36 per cent., compared with last year in exports, and, the decrease in May thus far is atgput 26 per cent. On the other hand the imports for May increase less than 8 per cent. In consequence the government revenue has materially decreased, the excess of expenditures over receipts for the month thus far being $5,533,677. Commercial failures for the week ending May 9 show liabilities of $3,009,373, of which $1,006,666 were of manufacturing and $3,002,706 of, trading concerns. For the corresponding week last year the liabilities were $1,937,538, of which only $432,606 were of manufacturing and $1,490,932 of trading concerns. In the five weeks ending May 2 the aggregate of liabilities was $11,070,479, against $14,750,467 for the same week last year. Failures during the past week have been 211 in the United States, against 219 last year, and 34 in Canada, against 24 last year.

FARM AND GARDEN. SPREADING A FLEECE. HtaU At to lit TytagCp W<Mt to th« Boat Adraataf*. Oar method is to tie up by hand with* out the help of any boy or press. Use a table 4 by 5 feet and 3 feet high. Have a half-inch hole through the middle of the back edge, through which to pass the twine, and a notch directly opposite in the front side in which to fasten the end of the twine. We thus use a single cord. The fleece Is placed upon the table very much aa in any method of tying. I always turn the fleece, however, In such a way as to have the neck end of the fl eece next to me. I append a rough ohtline of a fleece spread upon the table, indicating by the dotted line the place for dividing the fleece.

a neece needs to oe lined to give it a good appearance and keep it from pulling apart. After spreading it upon the table draw the fleece together, compressing the fiber as closely us practicable, then divide the fleece as indicated, thus partially skirting the fleece, as this takes off the coarser fibers on the lower part of the fore legs and o! the neck; raise this carefully and place it with white end down upon the body fleece, covering this as well as possible. Next lay the wool from the l:*elly upon this, place, the loose, clean locks upon this, and the fleece is ready to fold. The fleece will now lie in a somewhat irregular square, longer possibly across the fleece than the measure ment from ta^l to shoulder. Fold these edges, the front and back, inward first until they nearly meet, then make a double fold or roll the right-hand end up; holding* this in place with the right hand bring th« left-hand end up in the same way, catching it with the right hand; with the left hand bring the string from the back of the fleece, then with pressure by the left hand hold the fleece in po sition while th e end of the string is brought up with the other hand. This first knot ought to catch the last point of the fleece that was turned up, so as to hold tjie fleece in form, though no other cord were put about it. With p single knot at this point pass the twine around at right angles, tying at the same point. If the fleece is small and the fibers hold well toge ther, this is all the twine necessary. But in large loose fleeces it should be passed around twice more, drawing in what might be termed the corners of the fleece. This is all we ever place about the fleece, thus having but one closely tied bow knot We never make a practice of trying to get on as much twine as possible. 1 have seen fleeces put up in presses with four separate knots, each containing not less than a foot of twine. . This practice, combined with that of using the coarsest, heaviest twine obtainable, has mitigated against tne American wool industry very greatly. A couple of years we tried using the small hemp cord recommended by manufacturers, but there was iSb financial encouragement lor its continuance, and as it now costs more than the wool will bring, per pound, we are again using the common wool twine. We are careful, however, to get a light, smooth twine. , With this method of tying it requires about four pounds to the hundred fleeces. The advantages of this

FLEECE SPREAD UPON TABLE. method are that it is more expeditions, that it gives the fleece a better appearance and that the equipment is more economically provided. After a little practice one can become very expert in this method so that he can tie for five or six shearers. Or where several shearers are at work on a raised bench, each can have his ball of twine and do up his fleeces on the bench just where he shears, though it is better to let one man tie up %U the fleeces on a separate table. They will thus be gotten more uniform in appearance. I know that I encounter danger of being taken to task for practicing deception, but I am going to urge the practice of studying to give the fleeces the best possible outward appearance. I continually raise my voice, both at home and in public, against concealing any worthless material in fleeces, but it is nd fraud to fold the fleece in such a way that the brightest parts of the fleece will show and the dark ends, the coarse locks and discolored fribs not appear. We never put any pulled w ool, unwashed tags, short-stapled or cotted fleeces in others and never divide a ram’s fleece, making two, though I consider this latter in no way a fraud. A fleece that has bulk corresponding to its weight ought to pass without deduction, though it grew on a ram and has a tell-tale odor. Wool should be placed in a dry airy place. The direct rays of the sun and even the full light of the day will give it a dingy hue. But if packed away in a dark close bin, moth and mice are apt to damage worse. It is generally believed that wool will shrink in weight one per cent, or more in the few weeks immediately following shearing. BtA for two years our own clip sacked In the fall and weighed gained nearly three pounds to the sack during the winter. It was kept in the same room after being sacked that it was before, it being on an upper floor perfectly dry, well ventilated and light. It was a result not expected and not explained. As a rule, I think the changes in weight need not be taken into account ope way or the other.—IL P. Miller, in Ohio Farmer. i

To many people Spring and its duties mean an aching head, tired limbs, and throbbing nerves. Just as the milder weather comes, the strength begins to wane and “that tired feeling” is*the complaint of alL The reason fear this condition is found in the deficient quality of the blood. During the winter, owing to various causes, the blood becomes loaded with impurities and loses its richness and vitality. Consequently, as soon sa the bracing effect of cold air is lost, there is languor and lack of energy. The cure will be found in purifying and enriching the blood. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the greatest and best spring medicine because it is the greatest and best blood purifier. It overcomes that tired feeling because

it makes pure, rich blood. It gives strength to nerves and muscle® because it endows the blood with new powers of nourishment. It creates an appetite, tones and strengthens the stomach and digestive organs, and thus builds up the whole system and prepares it te meet the change to wanner weather. Hood's Sarsaparilla is a medicine upon which you may depend. It is the only true blood purifier prominently before the public eye to-day. It has a record of cures unequaled in the history of medicine.
