EDITOR WATCHMAN,
Dear Sir :—Allow me to congratulate
you on the position the WATCHMAN has tak-
en on the money question. While you have
said but little upon the subject as yet, we
know from the little that has been said, that
the WATCHMAN has not been subsidized nor
is it afraid to espouse the cause of the people
as against the corporate and money powers of
the country. :
It is possible that you are not aware of the
feeling that exists among the farmers and
working people, upon this subject. Party
conventions and platform makers may pro-
claim themselves for a. continuance of the
single gold standard, but the people want a
change. They have tried this single stand-
ard since 1873, and they have experienced
harder times, received lower prices for their
products and labor and been less prosperous
than during any period since the formation
of this government. *
We have seen our farms depreciate in val-
ue over fifty per cent. We have had a
shrinkage in the prices of everything pro-
duced, to an extent that leaves no profit for
the tiller of the soil. To-day, under the sin-
gle ‘standard, or gold basis, I can point you
to farms in this county, that prior to 1873
could not have been purchased for $100 an
acre, that are begging now for purchasers at
$35. Tt is so with everything we raise—with
every species of property.
It is not that property is less valuable but
the measures of value have been changed: so
that the man who has a horse, a cow, an acre
of land, a house, lot or any property
that he wishes to exchange for money, he
must give twice and in some instances three
times the amount to get as much money as he
would have gotten under the system that
was in force up to 1873.
Under the present system no one but the
money lender has been benefitted. His
wealth has been doubled in value. He can
get to-day two acres of land, two horses, two
cows, two bushels of wheat, or if he has two
days labor to perform, for the same amount
of money that he paid for one, under the old
system. :
Can any gold standard man, show where
there is any justice in a system of finance
that brings about this state of affairs ?
Tam no politician, I have voted the Ife-
publican ticket generally but the action of
the St.” Louis convention, in pledging that
party to the continuation of a financial policy
that is every day decreasing the value of my
property and enhancing the value of that of
the money lender, determines my course for
the future. I shall not vote that ticket.
There are scores of others like me.
