Constitutional Money.
Lecture of Willis R. Bierly Esq., Millheim. Gold Stan-
dard Fallacies Exposed, and Sound Money Explain-
ed. =
At Millheim, recently, the campaign for consti-
tutional money as opposed to the Fagin money of
London Jews, was opened by Hon. Willis R. Bier-
ly a native of Centre county and a lawyer of wide
notability. He was introduced on that occasion
by his old friend, Hon. Wm. K. Alexander, a
worthy disciple of Jefferson who was the author of
the law of 1792 which gave us the standard silver
dollar at the ratio of 16 oz. to 1 with gold, in
weight of coin.
As the views of Mr. Bierly, returning from the
West are in some degree indicative of the senti-
ments which account for the political tornado
that is sweeping eastward over the country, a
WaTcHMAN reporter was on hand'to take notes for
its readers. It would be simply impossible to
give a fair report of the lecture, in a limited
space, as the speaker held the platform for nearly
two hours, and explained the subject to the satis-
faction of the ladies and gentlemen who compos-
ed his intellegent audience.
He opened with a grateful menory of a noted
county institute in the old town hall 25 years ago,
and recalled some of the older personages of that
time. He then spoke of the vastness of this Un-
jon its rapid growth in the West and South by the
immigration of our sons and daughters, brothers
and sisters to those regions, beyond the Mississip-
pi—which they have by grit, thrift and industry
made to capitulate and yield vast wealth to the
nation creating a greater market for American
manufacturers and products than that of any for-
eign nation. These are the men and women
whom the gold dollar press referred to as ‘‘cranks
and fanatics,” but they had become used to it
and simply laughed at the silly calling of names
hy these common scolds and ignoramuses. We
«aid the money question was not capable of
demonstration like a thoerem in mathematics is,
but by analogical reasoning and comparison of ef-
. fects with causes, likes and unlikes, conclusions
could be evolved which would govern men’s ac-
* tions, as securely as if the problems could be
demonstyated by syllogism.
What is money ? Or rather,
best answer this by inquiring what is not
money ? Is gold money ? If it were, then
would all the fillings in your teeth be money all
the rings and jeweds etc. But gold is not money.
1s silver money ? No, for if it were, then all your
spoons and wares of that metal would be money.
Is paper money ? No: for if it were then all your
newspapers would be money. But these are the
© materials of which money can be made. But how ?
Only by law, by an act of government. That alone
is money which the law provides as a legal tender
and ultimate discharger of debt. This principal is
as old as Aristotle, It cannot be controverted.
In fact it is established in the good book. The
most ancient record, in its first reference to mon-
ey, gives the best definition of what sound money
is, and at the same time specifies the metal.
In Genesis, chapter 23, verse 16, is recorded
Abraham's purchase of a tomb, thus: “And
Abraham hearkened unto Ephraim : and Abraham
weighed to Ephraim the silver, which he had
named in the audience of the sons of Heth, four
hundred shekels of silver, current money with the
merchant.”
A shekel meant weight and when later the Jews
had their golden calf «mashed into smithereens
by Moses—gold was also made into shekels of
money and the ratio then established was 15
chekels of silver tol shekel or talent of gold.
Prior to this gold had only been referred to as
useful for jewels and candle-sticks upon the
altar. The ratio of 15 to 1, as history tells us, was
the ratio of the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the
Egyptians, and the Phenicians that great com-
mercial people whose ¢hips went beyond the pil-
lare of Hercules and, it is believed by many,
penetrated the .vast selvas of the Amazon. The
Greeks also and the Latins followed this ratio. So
common was silver as money in biblical times
that whenever ‘pieces of money” is mentioned,
it nearly always refers to silver. The value of
the silver shekel was 2s. 8d. in British money, at
154 to 1. or 66 cents. The gold talent weighed
153 grains, with dross.
What are the uses of money ? As economists
«ay, to exchange commodities ; for the payment
of wages of labor and salaries ; as a loanable
commodity. Each of thése was explained. Un-
der the last head he said he was not here to
inveigh against banks and bankers, as such.
Banks were a necessity and banking a legitimate
business. Money earned and saved by the pru-
dent, has a commercial value—for its use in trade
and that which is nominated in the bond must be
paid. But here comes in the ‘gold standard,”
which is a fake, pure and simple. These loaned
ragged greenbacks, bank notes and shop worn
silver, and now exact gold payment—on the false
claim that gold alone had ‘intrinsic value,”
which was a humbug. The money of payment
or liquidation should be no different or dearer
than that loaned and the vast debt of twenty
we can
billions of dollars of nation, State and individual jn
was largely contracted when there was neither
gold nor silver in circulation.
Silver and gold as bullion or pure metal were
then explained. Some years ago a committee of
Congress investigated the cost of production of
bullion. They found that for every dollar's worth
of pure silver, that is, 3714 grains, mined and
assayed at thie mint, the average cost was $1.50.
Silver or gold mining is like oil digging. Some
strike it rich. Others lose all. So, if “intrinsic
value” means what it costs to get it, a silver dol- |
lar's intrinsic value at 16 to 1, would be $1.50. You |
would be surprised to learn, Republican protec-
tionist, that the U.S. census of 1890, shows, in a
comparative table compiled by Sup’t. Robert
Porter, a good Republican—that there is more
capital invested in silver and gold mining in the
U.S. than in all the iron industries, than in all the
coal, anthracite and bituminous, than in all the
wealth producing oil interests, than in any one
line of industry, except agriculture and labor.
Yet you wonder that your Senator Don Cameron
voted to protect this vast industry of the West
which makes a high home market in the moun-
tain States for western farmers’ wheat, corn, beef,
pork, potatoes and everything you raise in com-
petition. Why, Senator Cameron is the only
logical Republican leader you have, and yet your
spotted and red-headed Philadelphia editors, who
don’t know the a. b. ¢. of finance, denounced him
as a traitor because he voted to protect a ‘home
industry” and keep the burthen of competition
from Penna. farmers and laborers :
The amount of capital invested in silver mining
in the U. §., compared with gold mining, is as two
to one, according to the same table. - So when you
strike down silver to uplift gold, you destroy the
labor and consuming power of the nation as two
to one. ’
But now silver and gold are the money metals of
the constitution. The law of 1792, passed at the
instance of Thomas Jefferson, expressly made the
Spanish dollar, which’had helped Washington to
whip the British at Princeton, Monmouth and
Yorktown, the unit or standard of value. The
ratio then was the same as by the Latin union
15% to 1. there heing alloy in both gold and |
silver to give color and hardness. And right |
here remember that all the silver coin, more |
than gold, now in use in England and other Eu-
ropean countries, is still fixed on that ratio of the
Latin Union and is recognized in each of those
countries as “sound money,” though not out of
it. In our country, in 1837, while Jackson was
President and “Old Bullion” Benton was in the
Senate, the ratio was changed by Congress to 1
ounce of gold coin to 15.98 in silver coin, “the
dollar of the daddies”—or “hard money” as
the Democratic party had it down to a recent
period, when that base coinage of a drunken im-
agination, “sound money,” was substituted—not
|
hy Democrats, but by the agents of foreign Jews |
who wanted more* bonds and more American
blood nearest the heart. By the law of Jackson,
who was a Democrat, the gold and silver coins
were thus related. The silver dollar to weigh
41214 grains of which one-tenth is alloy or 3714
grains, Troy weight, of pure silver. This is the
weight of all our silver dollars now. The
gold eagle is also one-tenth alloy, of
copper and silver, leaving therein €9 in pure
gold and ¢&1 in alloy or ‘vacuum’ as the
N. Y. Tribune learnedly calls it. Now you see the
fallacy of the gold standard idiots who claim in-
trinsic value for the gold coin alone. Melt it down
and you have a ‘‘vacuum,” same as in the silver
coin. But they call gold the ‘‘money of the
world’—our Jewish friends, who are renewing
the 8498,449,242 gold pile of Uncle Sam, like the
Chicago stock gamblers run the surplus of wheat,
corn ete.
This is proven a fallacy, because balances of na-
tions are paid in bullion and not in coin. The
boasted British gold sovereign (nominally $5) is
exchangeable for our money at $4.84 but no bank
will pay more than $4.75 in paper or silver for it
and as compared with our Jackson coin it is real-
ly worth only 84.44. That is, if you were to put it
in the crucible of these “money of the world”
fakirs, its mint value here would be only that.
So our money in other lands is only reducible to
exchange for theirs or mint value, and you have
seen that it is only nine-tenths fine by law. But
here is incontestible proof from the N. Y. Sun a
rabid gold worshipper. It gives the reply of
Supt. Mason of the N. Y. assay office to one of
the cute Jewish Fagins—the Ickleheimers, Guk-
kenheimers, Deidisheimer, Schweigelheimers,
Lazzam Freres and Dooblesackblosers, who want-
ed to exchange U. S. gold coin — Cleveland's
« Monish uv de Vawlt” for gold bars to export to
his masters, the Shylocks of Lombard street, who
have all the crowns of Europe in pawn and have
erected the three brazen balls in front of the |
guards at the White House. What did Mason
say? Hesaid, no. But ifthe coin was defaced, it
would be melted up, the alloy removed and after
paying the charges, pure gold bars would be re-
turned. Now, what did this Schweigelheimer
want ? He wanted to beat Uncle Sam out of his
labor and the one tenth of the coin, because he
said even after paying charges, more could be got
for the bullion abroad in exchange transactions
than the gold coin would pay. Of course, do you
see why ? The rate of exchange between N.Y.
and London is 2 per cent. You deposit any of
our money and pay two per cent exchange in
John Sherman's National Farmer's last shirt
shirt bank, and you get a draft on London for
bank bills, or British gold worth &1.44 in bullion,
or their silver worth less than our silver coin in
pure silver. But you take out the alloy of our
coin ; take the full coin weight in gold bars
assayed and stamped, pay freight and insurance,
and in Old Jewwy which rules the world those bars
are still worth more than any “money of the
world,” because they are pure gold—and not the
product of any law of value. Thus falls to the
ground the fallacy of a gold standard, as “money
of the world”—and with it that other equal hum-
bug, that if we again open our mints to silver, all
the silver money of the world will be dumped
here. France has a law against export of her sil-
ver coin. Butall the silver coin of Europe is
made at the ratio of 1534 to 1. To bring it here,
they must pay freight and insurance, have more
silver put into the coin, pay mint charges 1 of
one per cent and then take our products in ex-
change, for if we return to the bi-metallic law
once more, which was fraudulently destroyed in
1873, by John Sherman the hero of the farmer's
last patched shirt, and his conspirators of Wall
and Lombard streets, then this silver coin bearing
the American Eagle would no longer be redeem-
able in gold, as all other money is now by the
traitorous policy of our financiers. They would
have to buy our products which we have to spare
and this would not be an evil.
But there is still paper money to consider and
henee come all our woes. There are these kinds:
treasury notes and greenbucks. national bank
notes, silver certificates and gold certificates.
The gold certificates $42, 320, 759, are redeemable
in gold idle in the treasury ; the silver certificates
8331, 259, 509 have that many silver dollars piled
up in the treasury vaults, in which they are re-
deemable. In addition to this the treasury vaults
hold silver bullion which is called “the siegnior-
age,” amounting to a mint of value of £62,153,435.
95. This amount our present secretary had
a clear legal right to coin into money and pay
out for expenses of government, rather than issue
bonds. This money was robbed of the “silver bar
ons,” the miners of the West, by the Rothchild’s
geld trust. It is the difference between
the bullion value of silver in ounces and
the value of the silver in a dollar. In an
ounce of silver are 130 graing. Since the de-
monetization of silver in 1873, the value of the
ounce of silver has been beaten down from $1.29,
which it was in London, then to 67, now 68 cents.
This was the intention of the British gold-mong-
ers, our masters. In India, our great competitor
for supplying the world with wheat and cotton,
they use only silver as money and the ounce of
silver was then $1.35 and still is the same. So
now the British money-lord can buy our bullion
at 68 and use it to buy wheat in India at our prices,
as®1.35. That is what controls our wheat price,
which is the price in London less freight and in-
surance. Does the farmer understand now why
England wants us on the gold basis?
But the greenbacks and bank notes are yet to
be considered. The greenbacks, or blood bought
money, amount to about $350,000,000. These are
now irredeemable by law, and these were used by
the New England goldolators to make the run on
the gold reserve, which in January, 1879, was $114.
193,360 and in 1888, $§218,888.255. Thus for ten
years gold accumulated in the treasury because
all the secretaries’ used this lawfnl option and
paid out silver certificates on coin for greenbacks
when presented. When Cleveland came in the
first time his friends attempted to inaugurate the
run with greenbacks on the gold, but Dan. Man-
ning, Secretary of Treasury, was a Democrat of
the Jackson stripe and believed that silver, as well
as gold, was money of final payment and he stopp-
ed it right there. No effort was made until in the
summer of 1892, towards the end of Harrison's
administration when “Calico” Charlie Foster, the
Secretary of the Treasury, who failed with his
bank account overdrawn $112,000 in his town in
Ohio, at ‘the same time McKinley went up the
flume for $118,000, opened the reserve doors wide
and over $60,000,000 of gold was withdrawn, by
greenbacks, before Harrison and Foster went out.
This was the incipiency of the panic. All invest-
ors began to scramble for gold. Since 1878 gold
coin contracts had been made by all New Eng-
land and New York investors in farm and other
securities. The gold squeeze began, and invest-
ments in the South and West were called for
liquidation on the gold basis, by eastern banks.
The bonds on which this currency can be alone
isened, would all expire in 1906 and then the occu-
pation of cornering and controling the circulating
medium and raising and lowering prices would
be gone. So they must have more bonds and they
aided the run on the gold reserve. For names,
days and dates, read Shucken’s on the panic of
1893, by the National Bimetallic union, Chicago,
Ill. Shuckens was private secretary to secretary
Chase in war times. We give the facts. This
bank money is what he called Fagin money.
three hours, a National bank syndicate could take
£210,000 in greenbacks or any product thereof,
and by five investments in bonds and National
bank notes, treble their capital and have a fixed
and permanent interest and dividend paying
capital sealed with the great seal of the U.S. Can
anybody else do that 2 You could, if you had the
money and were a National banker. This is the
acme of Fagin finance. Fagin was the old Jew
manager in Dicken’s Oliver Twist, who had ‘“‘Lit-
tle Nolly’’ and the Artful Dodger, do the plunder-
ing of honest men and women for him. He said
the re-admission of silver to the mints—would
cure some of these evils now upon us. The
wealth of the mines again unlocked would draw
teeming industry westward once more. The silvers
miners take their silver coin and pay it out for
labor, machinery and Yroduce—take off the un-
natural load now carried by eastern farmers and
laborers—enhance prices—start up the manufac-
tories and make a market once more for lands
and everything. As it is now there is no market
for anything but money. Gold is the talisman
of to-day. Our pitiable condition is due to
twenty-three years of the gold standard.
Do you want to continue in this bondage?
He introduced little party politics—but
could not help referring to McKinley's re-
cord in Congress as a friend of silver. He also
quoted McKinley's speech in the Harrison con-
vention in 1888 when he arraigned Cleveland in
these words : “During all of his years at the head
of the government he was dishonoring one of our
precious metals, one of our own great products,
discrediting silver and enhancing the price of
gold. He endeavored, even before his inaugura-
tion to stop the coinage of silver dollars, and af-
terwards, persistently used his power to that end.
He was determined to contract the circulating
medium and demonetize one of the coins of com-
merce, limit the volume of money among the peo-
ple ; make money scarce and therefore dear. He
would have increased the value of money and di-
minished the value of everything else—money
the master, everything else the servant,” Was
McKinley then a “silver fanatic?” Now see him
stand on the Shylock gold platform, He is like
the wise old giraffe that traveled 30 years with
Barnum—not for its health. It was turned out to
grass and being hungry and thirsty, came to a
cocoanut tree. Alas the fruit hung too high to be
reached by a silvery tongue! But this giraffe
didn’t travel 30 years with Barnum for nothing.
It therefore stood on its head and kicked the
bough. Down came the cocoanuts—and so Mec-
Kinley has reversed himself on silver—to get an
empty presidential nomination.
Referring to the dramatic scene in the St.
Louis convention when Teller and the Mountain
States withdrew, and the thousands sang the red,
white and blue that was prophetic_ of the dissolu-
tion of McKinleyism. All those States have been
Republican and they have about 50 electors.
When, in November, the voice of the silent ballot
comes in from the snow capped peaks of the
Rockigs which cover the mineral wealth of the
world—the Mickeyites will first turn red, then be
ale as wh ited ghosts and lastly blue and remain
lue forever. | .
During his lecture he quoted from the Phila.
Record and Inquirer editorials and showed us how
their market and industrial news gave the lie di-
rect to their editorials. He claimed the weekly
and country press were the only full and worthy
guides—*the palladium of our liberties.”
