oSo far this week the Greenaille |

tobacco from seven counties and two
States,

$22.50, $19 and $18.50, an average Of
$18.50, What is done for these can be
done for you. The Greenville is still
ahead in prices and holds her own in
quantity.
Have You Seen This Beaten?
G. W. Vandertord sold 1,411 pounds
of tobaczo at the Eastern Warehouse
to-day and got a clear check for $181.76.
The different lots brought thes? prices:
140 Ibs. at $6.10, 193 Ibs. at $10.50,
300 Ibs. at $12, 87 Ibs. at $15, 293 Ibs.

It is not often that a sum works out
like this one, every figure in a line be-

of beef for 44 cents a ponnd, on Mon-
day, and the calenlation looked so odd
that he brqught it to us. Work it out
far ycurselt and you will have three 2s,
three 8s, three 1s, and three 9s each in

TESTING THE HONESTY OF MONEY,
oWhat is the test of honesty in
money? It must certainly be fourd
in the purchasing power a1 the dollar.
An absolutely honest dollar could not
vaty in its general purthasing _ powcr ;
a it would be absolutely stable when
. measured by average prices. A dollar
: which increases in purchasing power is
~ just as dishonesc as a dollar which de-
» greases in purchasing power. Prof.
oLaughlin, now of the University ot
Chicago, and one of the highest goiq
standard authorities, in his work on
. pinietallism not only aamits that gold
does not remain absolutely stable in
value, but expressly asserts othat there
is no such thing as a standard of value
for future payments, either in gold or
silver, which remains absolutely in-
variable.� He even suggests that a
" wultiple standard, wherein the ~unit is
paused upon the selling prices of a num-
ber of articles ot general consumption,�
would be a better standard than either
gold-or silver, or both, because ~a long
time contract would thereby be paid at
itsmaturity by the same purchasiag
power as was given in the beginning,T
oI cannot be successfuhy claimed
that monometallism or bimetallism, or
~any other system, gives an xbsolutely
just standard of value. Under both
monometalliim and bimetallism the
government fixes the weight and fine-
~ness of the dollar, invests it with legal-
tender qualities. and then extenas the
mints to its unlimited coinage, the
ng power of the dollar to be
~ined by the number of dollars.

injury to the people ot this country ;
but mow, when each step toward a
| universal gold standard enhances the
purchasing power of gold, depresses
prices, and transfers t» the pockets of
the creditor class an unearned incre
ment, the influence of this great nation
must be thrown upon the side® of gold
unless we are prepared tuo accept the
natural and legitimate consequences of
suck an act. Any legislation which
jessens the worldTs stock of standard
money increases the exchangeable value
of the dollars. Therefore, the crusade
against silver must inevitably raise
the purchasing power of money and
lower the money vaue of all other
forms of property.
EVILS OF THE GOLD STANDARD.
oOur opponents sometimes admit
that it was a mistake to demonatize sil-
ver, but insist that we should submit to
present conditions rather than return
to the bimetallic system. ~They err in
supposing that we have reached the end
of the evil results of a gold standard; we
have not reached the end. The injury
is acontinuing ore, and no person can
say how long the world is to suffer from
the attempt to make gold the only
standard money. ~The same influences
which are now operating to destroy sil-
ver in the United States will, if success-
ful here, be turned agaiust. other silver.
using countries, and each pew convert
to the gold standard will add to the
general distress. So long as the scram-
ble for gold continues prices must fall,
and a general fa'l in prices is but an-
other definition of hard times.
oOur opponents, while claiming en-
tire disinterestedness for themselves,
have appezled to the selfishness of nearly
every class of society.
the disposition of the individual voter
to consider the effect of any proposed
Recognizing
legislation npon himself, we preseut to |
the American people the financial policy
outlined in the Chicago platform, be-
lieving that it will result in the greatest
zood to the greatest number.
oThe farmers are opposed to the
gold standard because they nave felt its
effects. Since they sell at wholesale
and buy at retail they have lost more
than they have gained by falling prices ;
and besides this, they have found that
certain fixed charges have vot fallen at
all, Taxes kave not been perceptibly
increased, although it requires mere of
farm products now than formerly to se
cure the money with which to pay
taxes. Debts have not fallen. The
farmer who owed $1,000 is still com-
elled to pay $1,000, although it may
be twice as difficult as formerly to ob-
tain the dollar with which to pay the
debt. Railroad
duced to keep pace with falling pricus,
and bssides these items there are mary
more. The farmer has found just com-
plaint against the gold stanaard. The
wage-earners have been injured by a
gold standard and have expressed them-
selves upon the subject with great em"
phasis. In February, 1895, a petition
asking for the immediate restoration of
the free and~unlimited coinage of gold
and silver at 16 to 1 was signed by the
representatives of all, or nearly all, the
leading labor organizations and present-
ed to Congress. Wage earners know
that whilea gold standard raises the
purchasing power of the dollar, iv also
makes it more difficult to obtain posses-
sion of the dollar, They know that
employment is less permanent, loss of
work more probable and re-employ-
ment less certain. A gold standard
encouraged the hoarding of money be-
¢xuse money is rising. It also discour-
ages enterprise and paralyzes industry.
On the other hand, the restoration. of
bimetalysm will discourage hoarding,
because when prices are steady o- rising
money cannot afford to lie idle in bank
vaults. The farmers and wage earners
tozether constitute.a considerable ma-
jority of the people of the country.
Why should their interests be ignored
in considering financial legislation ? A
mo onotiary� ~gystem which is peculiarly
advantageous toa tew syndicates has
less to commend it than a system which
would give hope and encouragement to
~ates have not been re-
: Meare 5 61 the nations wealth. "
__IN ANSWER TO OPPONENTS.
oOur op, onents have made a special
appeal to those who hold fire and life
insurance policies, but these policy hold-
ers say that since the total premiums
.eccived exceed the total losses paid a
iising standard must be of more benefit
to the compaties than to the policy
holders.
oMuch solicitude has been expressed
by our opponents for th. depusitors in
savings banks. They constantly. par-
ade before these depositors the advant-
ages of a gold standard, but these ap-
peals will be in vain, becau e savings
back depositors know that under a gold
standard there is increasing danger
that they will lose their deposits, be-
cause of the inability of the banks to
collect their assets ; and they still furth-
er know that if the gold standard is
to continue indefinitely they may be
compelled to withdraw their deposits in
order to pay living expenses.
oIt is only necessary to ncte the In-
creasing number of failures in order to
know that a gold standard is ruinous 10
merchants and manufacturers. These
busiaes nen do not make their profits
from the pzople from whom they bor-
rowed money, but from the people to
whom they sell their goods. If the peo-
ple connot buy, retail2rs cannot sell, and
it retailers cannot sell, wholesale merck-
ants and manufacturers must go Into
bankruptcy.�
oThose who hold as a permanent in-
vestment, the stock of railroads and ot
other enterptises"I do not include
those who speculate in stocks or use
stock holdings as a meaus of obtaining
inside advantage in contracts"are in"
jured by a gold standard. The rising
dollar destroys the earning power of
these enterprises without reducing their
liabilities, and, as dividends cannot be
paid untill fixed charges have been sat-
isfied, the stockholders must bear the
burden of hard times,
oSalaries in business occupations de-
p2nd upon business conditions, and the
gold standard both lessens the amount
aud threacens the permanency of such
s aries.
oOfficial authorities, except the sal
aries of these who hold office tor hfe,
wouldin the long run be adjusted to
the needs of those who occupy them,
and if the present policy continues, we
must expect the coniest between the
taxpayer and the tax-cater to increase
in bitterness.
oThe professional classes"ia__ the
main"derive their support from the
producing classes, and can only enjoy
prosperity when there is prosperity. I
am not tempted to describe the effect
of the gold standard upon classes, in
fact, I have time to mention a tew, but
each person will be able to apply the
principle expressed to his own case. It
is the earnestness of ~he people gener-
ally to convert their earnings into real
or personal property. This being true,
in considering any temporary advantage
which may come trom a system under
which the dollar rises ia its purchasing | °
power, it must not be forgotten that
the dollar cannot buy move than for"
nférly unless property sells for less
than formerly. Henze it will be seen
that a large portion of those who
may find some pecuniary advantage in
a gold standard will discover tnat their
losses exceed their gains. |
oTt is sometimes asserted by our op-
ponents that a bank belongs to the
debtor class, but this is not true of any
solvent bank. Every statement pub-
lished by a solyent bank shows that une
assetts exceed the liabilities. ~This is
to say, while the bank owes a large
amount of money to its depositors it
not only has enough on hand in money
and notes to pay its depositors, but, in
addision thereto, has enough to cover
its capital and surplus. When the
dollar is rising in value slowly, a bank|;
may, by making short time loans and
taking good security, avoid loss, but,
is apt to lose more money because of
bad debts than it can gain by the ine
crease in purchasing power of its ~cap.
ital and surplus,
. oTé must be admitted, however, that
some banks.combine the business of a
bond ~broker with ordinary banking |
in the negotiation of loans to offset the
is to prevent men from injuring one
when prices are falling rapidly, the bank |
losses arising in legitimate banking|
business. As long as human nature
remains as it is, there will always be
danger that, unless resurained Ly the
public opinion or legal enac'ment, those |
who see a pecuniary profit for them-
selves in a certain condition may yield
to the temptation 1o bring about that
condition. Jefferson has stated that
one of the main duties of government
another, and never was that duty more
important than to-day. It is not
strange that those who have made a
profit by furnishing gold to the govern-
ment in the hour of its extremity favor
a financial pulicy which will keep the
gove-nment dependent upon them. I
believe, however, that I speak the sen-
timent of the vast majority of the ~ peo-
ple when I say that a financial policy
administered in behalf of all the people
would make our government independ-
ent of any combination of financiers,
foreign or domestic.
oLet me say a word, now, in regard
to ccrtain persons who are pecuniarily
benefited by a gold standard and w ho
favor it, not from a desire to trespass
upon the rights of others, but because
the circumstances v hich surround them
bind them to the effect that the gold
standard has upon others.
