In the first place theie is not enough
gold and silver in the world to effect
the exchanges; hence the necessity of
using a large amount of credit, oi
paper money, in addition to coin. How-
ever, in order that paper money may
be as good as coin, it must be based
on or redeemable in coin, and as sounu
finance will allow but one dollar of
credit money for every dollar in coin,
it follows that the amount of money
would not be increased. If every dol-
lar of paper money is to be based o i
coin, then it is but a gold or silver cer-
tificate and must have a dollar of gold
or silver in the vaults of the treasury
for every dollar of credit money in
circulation. From the above it ?s
clear that if there is not enough coin
in the world to effect all the exchanges,
the issuing of paper credit money
based on coin to increase the circu-
lating medium would not be a sound
• - policy, from the fact that if any con-
- ' slderabie amount of such credit money
were presented at the same time for
redemption, it could not be done either
by the government or by the banks,
thus depreciating the notes and caus-
ing a financial panic.
Another objection to goid and silver
as redemption money is that they are
simply commodities, and hence are
subject to the law of supply and de-
mand, the same as other commodities.
We know that when any commodity is
scarce it wUl rise in price, if plenti-
ful, it will fall in price. This is true
with g ild and silver. Now, then, if a
marks a dark and insidiouw conspiracy
for his overthrow. '1 hey point to the
fact that Mr. Gorman, a member of
the Democratic national committee,
was actually guilty of the suspicious
action of making a three-minute ad-
dre.-s before that body; that while ex-
Senator Hill will say nothing himself
as to his friendliness or unfriendliness,
people who have seen him have come
away displeased; that Mr bryan al-
lowed himself to be allured into the
gorgeous precincts of Mr. Croker's
Democratic dub, which some months
ago was notoriously the home of antl-
Bryanism, and they say that these
forces, if permitted to select their own
delegates to the national convention,
might rally enough strength to emas-
culate the platform and to defeat Mr.
Bryan.
Half of t'nat might be true. T'rom
a wide correspondence and a wide ac-
quaintance with active men in Demo-
cratic; national politics I am convinced,
however, that none of it is true. Of
course, a bare one-third in the conven-
tion would block a nomination if it
were sufficiently determined and the
others sufficiently vacillating. But the
gentlemen in the east, upon whom this
unjust If not perhaps wholly 'Unde-
served suspicion rests, could only mar-
shal one-third of the convention by
combining with certain western and
soufhern Democrats against whose
record there is no stain. Presumably,
if Mr. Croker and Mr. Carter Harri-
son of Illinois, for example, should
pool their issues, a formidable nucleus
would be formed, but one cannot ba
asking a Democrat to reasseverate his
loyalty to Democratic principles every
hour, and Mr. Harrison has unques-
tionably done so with great vigor and
effect many times since '96.

And now come these same wicked

Vic made the feature of an entertain-
labor and the products of labor. If , opposed to any tariff whatever
gold and silver can be made scarce
artificially or monopolized and used
as a bludgeon to strike down labor and
its products, how much more easy can
it be done with the single gold stand-
ard?
We see in the above that gold and
silver, or coin, are commodities used
as a medium of exchange called money.
It should not be forgotten that any
commodity could be used as money,
provided it was possessed of the fol-
lowing properties: First, if any com-
modity were valuable in small bulk,
.imperishable, transferable; second, if
it were desirable or prized by e very
oue, alsp divisible and limited in
amount.
If gold and silver money can be used
as a measure of value to ascertain the
value of all other commodities, then
they must, in the nature of things, be
independent of the law of demand and
supply. If mountains of gold were dis-
covered, its value should not depre-
ciate. If the demand were greater
than the supply, its value should not
increase. But there are no commodi-
ties possessing these properties, hence
they are no true measure of value.
Now, instead of gold being a standard
or unit of value, by which the value
of other commodities may be found,
they must themselves oe based on
their value determined by something
else which determines the value of all
commodities. Now, since the time and
labor required to produce any com-
modity determines its price, it follows
that time and labor are the true meas-
ure of the value of all commodities,
and hence form a basis for scientific.

One of the most itirloin things abou!
congressional legislation is the singu-
lar facility with which a "little joker"
gets into any financial or currency bill
without being detecttd by any member
of congress or the senate, and which
invariably redound, to the good of the
capitalistic classes.
It isn't necessary to hark back to
the "crime of '73," for we have a new
illustration of the ea-e with which a
proviso of something of thp same sort
slips through without attention. One
of the most widely, intelligently and
conservatively'urgid extensions of the
federal power has bsen the establish-
ment of postal savings banks. 1 he
popular demand for this reform has
been rapidly growing, writes Willis J.
Abbott. Newspapers of unimpeach-
able conservatism have supported It.
Economists, public men, and even men
of large wealth, not directly attached
to the so-called national banking sys-
tem, which, of course, is not national
at all, but simply a device for personal
profit, have upheld it. The difficulty
which the poor have found in findin
absolutely safe depositories for their
savings, particularly in the mora
sparsely settled regions, stimulated the
demand for this system a system, by
the way, very general abroad. The
^rrave question which lias been asked
by the opponents of the plan ha- been.
"How shall you Invest your funds?"
The natural response has been
that in the main they could
he Invested in national securi-
lies, as they are in Great Brit-
ain. In due time, no doubt, with this
system established, these investments
can be safely extended- to state and tp
municipal bonds, and in some instances
to the real estate with the improve-
ments necessary for the housing of the
postofllces. But it is undoubtedly a
safe proposition that for the basis a
sufficiently large volume of national
bonds would be ne essary. Last week
there was a sufficient volume to supply
the necessary basis. Last Wednesday,
when the Republicans carried through
their plan to force their currency
measure to enactment by sheer power
of numbers, this volume began imme-
diately to decrease, because then by
Ihe refunding feature of the measure
$839,146,490 of outstanding bonds soon
to mature are to be exchanged at once
for bonds that cannot be called in or
canceled for thirty years. These
bonds will pass at once into the hands
of the national banks, w hich, using
them as a basis for circulation, will
never give them up as investments foi
rival banks that exist not for profit
but for public service. Critics of the
pending currency bill, even non-parti-
san ones, have called attention to the
fact that the refunding measure bears
uo vital relation to the remainder ol
the bill. Perhaps, in the heated con-
troversy that has been going on ovel
the relative merits of the metallic
standards, it may have been done sim
his own political j ply to give new strength to the domi-
i nation of gold. But this was sufli-
i eiently accomplished by the declara-
tion in another section of the bill foi
the gold standard, and as certain men
among them a business partner aud
close political associate of Senatoi
Hanna, have been the most outspoken
opponents of postal savings banks, be-
ing himself a national banker, there is
reason to expect that it was slipped in
for the distinct purpose of defeat.uy
such a reform in the future.
