In 1885 the Egyptian government decided to change its coinage and invited bids for contracts to coin its silver piasters. The German mint secured the contract to make the coin and incidentally farnished $8, 189,600 of silver bullion to Egypt. The matter was kept very quiet or escaped general notice. Reference to it will be found, however, in the London Economist of Deo. 4, 1886, which saw in it a proof of Bismarck's lack of faith in silver. With all his faults, Bismarck is a sturdy patriot. To help the German distiller he was willing to see trichine in every American pig, and to~ protect the German farmer he smelled bugs on every American potato. Germany. has today 107,000,000 worth of silver whose value is declining. If the United States could be induced to follow the example of Egypt and give Germany a . chance to do some more unloading, where is the harm, from the ex-chancallor’s point of view, in writing a letter of not entirely disinterested advice? The Silverite Strong Man. Just watch the great Mr. Bryan, the Silver Samson of the Platte, as he performs his -.:::ld renowned feat of raising the bullion value of silver from 67 cents to $1.29 per ounce with his big ‘‘free silver’ hammer. My, ain’t he strong! Why Dees Not Mr. Bryan Answer? Mr. Bryan telis the farmers that free coinage of silver will give them cheap dollars with which to pay their debts. Mr. Bryan tells city workingmen that free coinage of silver will raise the metak t¢ $1.29 per ounce, bringing the silver dojiar to par with the gold dollar, thus giving city workingmen another dollar as good as the present one with which to buy the farmers’ products. That is to. say, to the farmer the Bryan silverdolJar is to be a cheap dollar to pay debts with. To city labor the Bryan dollar is to be a dollar of high purchasing power to buy with. Free coinage of silver cannot produce these two dollars. It can produce only one of the two. Why do not would be supporters of Mr. Bryan ask him which dollar he really means?. Both the farmer, who wants to pay debts, and the workingman, who must buy farm produce, are interested in having this question answered.—Chicago Times-Herald. Where to Go.

In the little community of Traver, in Tulare county, a committee of citizens was appointed to canvass the community relative to its present condition as compared to its past condition under Republican. administration. Republicans, Democrats and Populists were Intrviewed, and their views were published under the above title, and they agreed very substantially as to facts, though there doubtless was not the same degree of harmony as to cure for the trouble. Room can be found for only one statement of the case from each party, but they are to the point and good to think over. FROM A REPUBLICAN. David Burris said: ‘In 1892 I employed in hay-making an average of eighteen laborers and my monthly pay roll was $585. In 1896 with the same acreage 1 only employed ten laborers and my average monthly pay roll is “Mutton sheep sold in 1892 for 4 per head; in 1896 $1.50 per head. I sold my spring clip of wool in 1893 for 11} cents. I am offered 3 cents for my fall clip of 1896. “Fat hogs sold for 5 cents in 1892 and are only 2 cents now. ‘My opinion of the shrinkage of valaes in reai estate and improvements is fully one-half now as compared to the prices prevailing in 1892.” FROM A DEMOCRAT. J. M. Clark is an extensive farmer. [fe said that ‘wages of common ranch nands in 92 was $30 per month. We a0w pay the same class $20 per month, although Miller & Lux and many others gay only $10 per month. “Fat hogs were worth 5 cents per pound in 1892. There is no sale for chem now. ‘Land has depreciated fully seven2ighths since 1892. “J yrubbed out 320 acres of raisin rapes ‘because there was no pay in chem.” FROM A POPULIST. C. W. Elliott said: ‘Land has shrunk in value, as compared in 1892, about two-thirds. : “T traded a good span of horses for 3000 feet of lumber worth $16 per thousand. “Hogs were 5 cents in 1892. They are now 2} cents. “Peaches (dried) sold for 12} cents in 1892. They offer 3 cents now. “Hay was $6 per ton in 1892. It is $2.50 now. “Fat sheep were $3.50 to $4 in 1892. They are.$1.50 now.” He discharged his hired help lately snd is doing what he can alone; can not afford to Mire men with prices at the present ruinously low figures. As to the condition there is substantial agreement, and the agreement as to the cause of this condition ought to be as substantial. Take wool, which fell so that Mr. Burtis can get only 3 cents now; whereas he did get 11$ cents in 1892. Is there a Democrat who will hoid that the cause of it was not the taking off of the protective tariff? ~~ Take mutton sheep, which in 1892 sold at $4 per head, and now sell at $1.50. Is there any man who questions that what killed the wool industry also forced upon the market mutton sheep in such excess as to reduce prices? Take land. The fall in the value of land in the vicinity of Traver has, according to above statements, ranged between one-half and two-thirds of its value in 1892. Did the appreciation of gold in three years dothis? Grant what no sound money man would think of granting, that the appreciation of gold is measured by the depreciation of silver. Silver in 1892 was worth on an average 87 cents per ounce. Until recently, in 1896, it has been worth 69 cents an ounce, a fall of about 20 per cent. Grant that this measures the appreciation of gold, and even then an appreciation of gold of 20 per cent would not account for a depreciation in land to half or one-third, of wool to one-third, of mutton to less than half, of hay to half or one-third.

Why not look at the self-confessed failure of the Democratic party to conproperly; to’ the Wilson-Bryan tariff, which admitted wool and shoddy free; which closed down American factories; which cut off consumption on the part of the people so that, according to an estimate made by the statistical department at Washington, the people of the United States consumed two and a 1894 than in 1892, a shrinkage of consumption among our own people amounting to as much as six consecutive California wheat crops? Why do men not look at these things if they are really anxious to learn the causes of hard times ? i ‘ And where shall men look for a cure ? Why, to the party and principles whicl maintained unexampled prosperity in this country for-more than thirty years; to the tried and true leaders of the Republican party who know how to conduct the affairs of government, having learned by practice and by precept. If the fall of silver did not produce this unfortunate condition the rise of silver can not cure it, : On the other hand, if want of confidence in the integrity and capacity of the managers of a political party; if a low tariff and free wool and free shoddy; if the shutting down of our factories, the throwing out of employment in San Francisco alone of 14,000 people engaged in mannfacturing enterprises— offer new specials every week.

In 1885 the Egyptian government decided to change its coinage and invited bids for contracts to coin its silver piasters. The German mint secured the contract to

make the coin and incidentally farnished $8, 189,600 of silver bullion to Egypt. The matter was kept very quiet or escaped general notice. Reference to it will be found, however, in the London Economist of Deo. 4, 1886, which saw in it a proof of Bismarck's lack of faith in silver. With all his faults, Bismarck is a sturdy patriot. To help the German distiller he was willing to see trichine in every American pig, and to~ protect the German farmer he smelled bugs on every American potato. Germany. has today 107,000,000 worth of silver whose value is declining. If the United States could be induced to follow the example of Egypt and give Germany a . chance to do some more unloading, where is the harm, from the ex-chancallor’s point of view, in writing a letter of not entirely disinterested advice? The Silverite Strong Man. Just watch the great Mr. Bryan, the Silver Samson of the Platte, as he performs his -.:::ld renowned feat of raising the bullion value of silver from 67 cents to $1.29 per ounce with his big ‘‘free silver’ hammer. My, ain’t he strong! Why Dees Not Mr. Bryan Answer? Mr. Bryan telis the farmers that free coinage of silver will give them cheap dollars with which to pay their debts. Mr. Bryan tells city workingmen that free coinage of silver will raise the metak t¢ $1.29 per ounce, bringing the silver dojiar to par with the gold dollar, thus giving city workingmen another dollar as good as the present one with which to buy the farmers’ products. That is to. say, to the farmer the Bryan silverdolJar is to be a cheap dollar to pay debts with. To city labor the Bryan dollar is to be a dollar of high purchasing power to buy with. Free coinage of silver cannot produce these two dollars. It can produce only one of the two. Why do not would be supporters of Mr. Bryan ask him which dollar he really means?. Both the farmer, who wants to pay debts, and the workingman, who must buy farm produce, are interested in having this question answered.—Chicago Times-Herald. Where to Go.

In the little community of Traver, in Tulare county, a committee of citizens was appointed to canvass the community relative to its present condition as compared to its past condition under Republican. administration. Republicans, Democrats and Populists were Intrviewed, and their views were published under the above title, and they agreed very substantially as to facts, though there doubtless was not the same degree of harmony as to cure for the trouble. Room can be found for only one statement of the case from each party, but they are to the point and good to think over. FROM A REPUBLICAN. David Burris said: ‘In 1892 I employed in hay-making an average of eighteen laborers and my monthly pay roll was $585. In 1896 with the same acreage 1 only employed ten laborers and my average monthly pay roll is “Mutton sheep sold in 1892 for 4 per head; in 1896 $1.50 per head. I sold my spring clip of wool in 1893 for 11} cents. I am offered 3 cents for my fall clip of 1896. “Fat hogs sold for 5 cents in 1892 and are only 2 cents now. ‘My opinion of the shrinkage of valaes in reai estate and improvements is fully one-half now as compared to the prices prevailing in 1892.” FROM A DEMOCRAT. J. M. Clark is an extensive farmer. [fe said that ‘wages of common ranch nands in 92 was $30 per month. We a0w pay the same class $20 per month, although Miller & Lux and many others gay only $10 per month. “Fat hogs were worth 5 cents per pound in 1892. There is no sale for chem now. ‘Land has depreciated fully seven2ighths since 1892. “J yrubbed out 320 acres of raisin rapes ‘because there was no pay in chem.” FROM A POPULIST. C. W. Elliott said: ‘Land has shrunk in value, as compared in 1892, about two-thirds. : “T traded a good span of horses for 3000 feet of lumber worth $16 per thousand. “Hogs were 5 cents in 1892. They are now 2} cents. “Peaches (dried) sold for 12} cents in 1892. They offer 3 cents now. “Hay was $6 per ton in 1892. It is $2.50 now. “Fat sheep were $3.50 to $4 in 1892. They are.$1.50 now.” He discharged his hired help lately snd is doing what he can alone; can not afford to Mire men with prices at the present ruinously low figures. As to the condition there is substantial agreement, and the agreement as to the cause of this condition ought to be as substantial. Take wool, which fell so that Mr. Burtis can get only 3 cents now; whereas he did get 11$ cents in 1892. Is there a Democrat who will hoid that the cause of it was not the taking off of the protective tariff? ~~ Take mutton sheep, which in 1892 sold at $4 per head, and now sell at $1.50. Is there any man who questions that what killed the wool industry also forced upon the market mutton sheep in such excess as to reduce prices? Take land. The fall in the value of land in the vicinity of Traver has, according to above statements, ranged between one-half and two-thirds of its value in 1892. Did the appreciation of gold in three years dothis? Grant what no sound money man would think of granting, that the appreciation of gold is measured by the depreciation of silver. Silver in 1892 was worth on an average 87 cents per ounce. Until recently, in 1896, it has been worth 69 cents an ounce, a fall of about 20 per cent. Grant that this measures the appreciation of gold, and even then an appreciation of gold of 20 per cent would not account for a depreciation in land to half or one-third, of wool to one-third, of mutton to less than half, of hay to half or one-third.

Why not look at the self-confessed failure of the Democratic party to conproperly; to’ the Wilson-Bryan tariff, which admitted wool and shoddy free; which closed down American factories; which cut off consumption on the part of the people so that, according to an estimate made by the statistical department at Washington, the people of the United States consumed two and a 1894 than in 1892, a shrinkage of consumption among our own people amounting to as much as six consecutive California wheat crops? Why do men not look at these things if they are really anxious to learn the causes of hard times ? i ‘ And where shall men look for a cure ? Why, to the party and principles whicl maintained unexampled prosperity in this country for-more than thirty years; to the tried and true leaders of the Republican party who know how to conduct the affairs of government, having learned by practice and by precept.. If the fall of silver did not produce this unfortunate condition the rise of silver can not cure it, : On the other hand, if want of confidence in the integrity and capacity of the managers of a political party; if a low tariff and free wool and free shoddy; if the shutting down of our factories, the throwing out of employment in San Francisco alone of 14,000 people engaged in mannfacturing enterprises— offer new specials every week.
