Pea-Nut Politics

Plutocratic papers have been trying to make thunder out of the subscription prices published in the Mexican Herald. It delivers by carrier in the. city for sl2, by mall in the country $lO, to Central American States sl2, and to the United States $7.. As is stated by the goldbug papers, they send the paper to the United States and pay the postage for $7, because the money of the United States is equivalent to gold. That is exactly what reformers don’t want—low prices. Everybody knows that a gold standard paralyzes prices, High prices for everything always makes money, plenty and times good. Come again, plutocracy.—St. Louis Evening Journal.
