The Oold Standard Illustrated.
A recent transaction of the Illinois
Trust and Savings bank, of Chicago,
which was reported at the time In the
Chicago papers, throws light upon what
would happen If the mints of the United
States were thrown open to the silver of
the whole world. Among this bank's
patrons are several Chinamen who fre
quently buy exchange payable In Hong
Kong Upon this occasion one of these
Celestials took $554 in American silver
certificates and with It bought from the
Chicago bank a draft for $1,000 in silver,
payable In Hong Kong. In other words,
$554 of American silver, which under
our present laws Is worth $554 In gold,
because It can upon demand be con
verted Into gold, is worth as much as
it.000 of Chinese silver, which lacks a
Cold foundation.
Or, take another Illustration. In the
present American silver dollar there are
S71.25 grains, while In the Mexican sil
ver dollar, there are 377.17 grains of
pure silver. The American silver dol
lar, although If melted Into silver bull
ion It would bring only 51 cents, is as a
matter of fact worth in its coined Btate
$1 the world over, because whenever Its
owner wants gol fo" It h can step up
to a Iftiltet Stites sub-tieasury or a
bank and trade it for a old dollar. But
the Mexican dollar, outside of Mexico,
Is worth only 55 cents and that is all
anyone can. get for It.. The American
silver dollar, in other words, is as good
aa the best, because it is at all times
convertible into the best; the Chinese
and Mexican dollars, outside of their
own countries, are good only to the ex
tent of their bullion value, which under
goes almost daily fluctuation.
Unlimited free silver coinage would
eventually put our dollar down to the
level of these cheap foreign dollars, and
would consequently be a ruinous mis
take. We still believe that by means of
a prohibitive tariff on foreign silver this
government could coin every ounce of
American sliver less the amount divert
ed to the arts and keep it on a parity
with gold. Such a policy would not de
grade but would merely amplify our
currency. Yet it is possible that a res
toration of protection, with Its reversal
of the now unfavorable balance of trade
and Its consequent checking of gold ex
ports, will put an end to dangerous cur
rency contraction and render It unnec
essary for us to attempt any new ex
periments. It should be noted that the
gold atandard indorsed at St. Louis Is
not something new and uncertain, but
simply a continuation of the atandard
which has been In vogue In this country
for the past twenty-three years. We
were prosperous during most of that
period and may be prosperous again If
we will work for a return of the protec
tive policy which caused our previous
good times.
According to M. Paul Leroy-Beaulleu,
the French political economist, the
nomination of McKlnley "will cause
anxiety," Yes, in Europe and among
Democrats,
! The Future of Silver.
The Cleveland World suspects that the
Intention of the bolting sllvtirltes Is to
nominate an Independent Republican
Uver candidate for president, In the
hope that ha may draw oft Republican
votes enough to throw the election Into
the house of representatives, where- the
Vote Is tay Mates.' It points out that of
ha forty-live states, eleven are- strictly
gold states, leaving thlrty-four as neu
tral or for free silver. "Of these thirty
four." It says, "the sllverltes would ex
pect to command perhaps eighteen In
(he south and extreme west. This would
leave sixteen states, and of these they
would need to secure only five In order
to complete the needed twenty-three.
A state vote Is determined by the majori
ty of Its representatives In congress,
and the silver men might, evea though
In a minority la eoairess, be so distribu
ted aa to determine the majority of the
congrenlonaj votei . In tweoty-thr:
tales.
Tbe World doubtless voices the
thought which led Mark Hanna to en
deavor to prevent the adoption of a
radical gold plank. But while it is no
doubt true that the silver forces are
stronger among the people than ia gen
erally auppuaed, ta U cxceedinly Im
probable that many Republican who
are friendly to allver will desert McKln
ley: and the bolt will therefore fall flat.
The fact that the St. Louis convention
has Just pledged the Republican party
to the promotion of International bi
metallism will be sufficient. In view of
th-a gravity of the other interests at
stake in the coming election, to keep
moat Republican blmetallists In llnii.
While they would like to see the double
standard restored and bellow that Its
restoration would operate to check the
recent world-wide fall In prices, they are
not so foolish as to suppose that they
can expect such a consummation to be
brought about by the continuance of the
conditions of the past three Democratic
years, nor by the taking of desperate
chances as to tbe Immediate future.
In this connection the language of
Senator Hoar, who Is now In Paris, 1b
significant. He said only this week:
"I am confident that the time Is ripe for
a settlement of the sliver question and
the reestabllshment of bimetallism by
International agreement and with the
co-operation of England. The next Re
publican administration can have the
honor of this It the leaders are prudent
In their action. In a speech M. Mellne
says that If it depended on France alone
we need not wait long, and M. Mellne's
declaration is supported by 347 out of
5S0 members of the chamber of deputies
and leading statesmen, Including M.
Loubert. I have conversed with A. J.
Balfour, the first lord of the British
treasury and conservative leader In the
house of commons, and several mem
bers of his government, and I am as
sured on the highest authority that
Mr. Balfour's recent Bpeech advocating
International bimetallism represented
the opinion of the government."
The conservative frlendB of silver will
In any event remain loyal to the Re
publican party, knowing full well that
It Is the only party having both the
ability and the disposition to effect sil
ver's remonetlstatlon by means which
will not disturb business nor Invite com
mercial distrust.
Those who predict that Senator Teller
will fc? nominated at Chicago appear to
forget that Senator Teller Is a protec
tionist while the Chicago convention
will tt a body of free traders.
'Is Underselling a Crime?"
"There is only one honeBt way of do
ing business to make the best article
you can for the money, and make some
profit out of the transaction. You have
no right to cheat your customer. Neith
er have you any right to ruin your com
petitor by selling goods at less than it
costs you to produce them."
The foregoing Is a sentence from a
timely article In the London magazine,
Machinery, by E. J. Smith, a prominent
English trade-unionist. Mr. Smith goes
even further. He contends that under
selling though not legally is morally a
crime, because It "ruins manufacturers
and drags even the skilled workmen
down to starvation wages;" and he pre
dicts that a day will come when It will
be treated by the courts as an Indictable
offense. Commenting upon Mr. Smith's
novel thought, the Rochester Democrat
and Chronicle adds this forceful contri
bution to the discussion: "In the strug
gle which ensues when the 'cutting'
process falls below the line of the cost
of goods with a reasonable or living
profit, the manufacturer or merchant
who engages In that game risks his own
solvency, and generally, sooner, or lat
er, gets caught in the rapids and is
hurried Into bankruptcy. Whoever wil
fully enters upon a course of business
that Imperils his ability to face his
creditors and meet their claims Is guilty
of dishonesty on the same principle that
the law holds a drunkard accountable
for a crime perpetrated in the madness
of Intoxication. Whether It is prac
ticable or desirable to bring tho evil of
underselling within the purview of bur
penal statutes, or not, may be a pre
mature question In the present condi
tion of public sentiment on the subject;
but it Is clearly pertinent at this time,
when in business circles there Is so
much anxiety and depression on ac
count of this and other objectionable
methods in business life, to consider Its
moral, Industrial and mercantile conse
quences." We are moved to apply these just
generalizations to one particular In
stance, the anthracite coal trade. For
years the producers of this commodity
have been forced by underselling to part
with their product at a loss. This loss
has naturally distributed Itself through
out the community until it has affected
all persons living within the mining re
gion, and, to some extent, the whole
country. If such a condition of below
cost prices is a moral crime in the case
of an Industry dealing with a renewable
product, how much greater must be the
wrong In the case of an Industry like the
anthracite trade, whose commodity,
once gone, 1b gone forever? And yet,
because the producers of this limited
and fast-dtsappearlng product are now
endeavoring to secure for their com
modity In the public market a fair and
reasonable price, sufficient to cover both
the Immediate cost of production and
the Inevitable sacrifice of natural stock,
they are branded as thieves and robbers
and sot upon by committees of Inquiry.
Here is the fundamental question In this
whole discussion Has any man a moral
right to expeot to buy an article at a
price which Will cause another man un
just loss? And who Is the culprit, the
man who wants to squeeze tbe price
down below the level of fairness, or the
manufacturer who wants to keep it up
to that level?
Twelve years ago the Republican na
tional convention urged that "efforts
should be made to unite all commercial
nations in the establishment of an in
ternattonal standard which shall fix for
all the relative value of gold and silver
coinage." In 1888 the platform de
clared In "favor of the use of both gold
and silver as money" and condemned
the "policy of the Democratic admlnls
tratlon in its efforts to demonetise sil
ver." Four years ago the essential part
of the money plank read: "The Ameri
can people, from tradition and interest,
favor bimetallism, and the Republican
party demands the use of both gold and
sliver as standard money, with such re
strictions and under such provisions to
be determined by legislation as will se
cure the maintenance of the parity of
values of the two metals, so that the
purchasing and debt-paying value of
the dollar, whether of sliver, gold or
paper, shall be at all times equal." The
present plank is for bimetallism by safe
International agreement, and In the
meantime It demands the maintenance
of the gold standard. It therefore Is
seen that while the "goldbugs" have
made some progress, the Republican
party Is still a party favorable to bl
metalllsm.
It has been figured out that the St
Louis convention cost $4,000,000. The
Chicago News explains that If this sum
were to be raid out In dollar bills and
the bills made In a carpet the carpet
would be 1,000 feet long, 650 feet wide
and cover fifteen acres and tba oapltol
at Washington If set down In the middle
of It would appear as a toy house la Ibe
center of a big rug. Four million dol
tars in gold piled In a pyramid four feet
at the base would be five feet high. In
silver dollars with 'a base 10 feet square
the pyramid would be fifteen feet high,
But, then, the convention was worth It.
Although the last two congresses have
not responded as liberally to the call
for appropriations for developing our
inadequate coast defenses as the gravl
ty of that call would seem to warrant,
It Is gratifying to note that preparations
will soon be begun for the expenditure
of the sums which were voted for this
pwpoce. It is hoped to put Washing.
ton, Baltimore, New York, Boston and
Han Francisco In suitable condition to
resist attack; and If this be done, we
can, until the government's finances
Improve, take chances on the other
coast cities.
The St. Louis convention wisely took
solx-r second thought on the Cuban
question. TheiougJi draft of theCntan
plank called for armed intervention by
the United States In behalf of Cuban In
dependence, but the plank as subse
qucntly revised pledges the use of this
government's "Influence and good
offices." We may yet have to fight
Spain before the Cuban affair Is settled
but there Is no sense In putting a chip
on our shoulder and Inviting Spain to
knock It off.
The St. Louis money plank Is for the
freest use of Bilver possible without
eu-crifice of the equality in purchasing
power of all our dollars. It Is also for
International bimetallism. ' This ought
to satisfy every con&arvatlve friend of
silver. With more protection we can
safely use more silver.
"Can anythlngbeir.oreoffer.sive In the
sober-minded, self-respecting, laborious
classes of American society," asks
'President Eliot in 'the July Porum,
"than the doctrine of Jingoism?' " Yes,
the Mugwump doctrine of senile ac
quiescence in preposterous foreign
claims.
We can atsura the esteemed Wllkes
Barre Record that if William Connell
shall be a candidate for congress he will
not spend a dollar, aside from the le
gitimate expenses allowed by law, to
secure his nomination or his election.
Michigan dentists want the state to
supply tooth inspectors. Such a plan
would doubtless be a good thing for
dentists with strong "pulls."
It looks as If the convention did a
good deal more for St. Louis than St.
Louis did for the convention.
Canton will now be what Mentor was.
THE CURRENCY PLANK.
From the Philadelphia Press.
The Republican plank on the currency
ought to please the business interests,
because It promises a certain continu
ance of the monetary system which the
country has enjoyed since 187!). During
that period United States money under
this system, which Is now indorsed and
confirmed by a national Republican con
vention, bus been as good as that of Eng
land or any other nation. For political
purposes some people In authority have
been denouncing this system as a bad
one and claiming that It was responsi
ble for disasters which can be traced di
rectly to the tariff. The resolution of St.
Louis Is a denial of every falsehood of
the Cleveland administration. It Is an ap
peal to the country against them, and
the first reception of the appeal by the
nation Is most hearty and sympathetic.
The currency plank Says truly that the
Republican party Is for sound money, and
that since 1879 under Its laws "every dol.
lar has been as good as gold." It says
the Republican varty is unalterably op
posed to every measure calculated to de
base the currency, and Is opposed to free
silver coinage, except under an Interna
tional agreement. This Is exactly the pol
icy of the past, and It Is besides a history
of the currency. The fight In the con
vention, If there was a fight, was over the
uso of the word gold. As gold has been
the basis for seventeen years, and as It
Is proposed to continue It as the basis of
the circulating medium, there can be no
harm, and there may be much good, In
saying so, It Is a mistake, however, to
assume that the platform commits tffe
party or Its members to gold monomctal.
Hum. There Is not a line In It that can be
so construed. The Republican party will
mane me nni on the tariff. The cur
rency Is to be as it Is. unchanged nt
least until the laws are restored which will
glvo tbe nation opportunity to recover
from the calamities of the present admin
istration, :
