GONE, AFTER ONE YEAR
- WITH THE GOLD STAND
, ARP—OFFICIAL FIG
URES TELL THE
*■'* -
Here is the story of one yei r of
tbs gold standard.
It is a story told in figures—fig
ures furnished by the sworn offi
cers of the state of this union—a
story the truth of which there can
be no gainsa,ving.-
. A,few days ago'The Constitution
took occasion to demolish, by a
plain statement of facts and fig
ures, the claim which had been set
forth by the advocates of the sin
gle gold standard that the “aver
age financial condition of ithe
farmers is improving all the time.”;
Tho statement-was made in the
vain hope demonstrating to the
pfeople of America, and particular
ly to the people of five south, that
they are growing richer under the
operations of the gold standard.
There is a very simple and a very
easy wey to ascertain -the exact
facts concerning this point, and
The Constitution piesentr to-day
that story. It is indeed a lesson
of the gold Standagd. The table
of figures presented hero is one
which anybody g can understand.
It shows the'bha%gein the property
valuationsy>f the different states
of the different, states of the union,
iroin 189s to 1864. And in show-*
* hi-.il 14 j jhj; T-
Vqieralinns of the single gold stun-"
dafd in a single year. It demon--
strates', more clearly than any. ar
gument could, the fact that under
the operations of this system,
which lias been in full force within
the past year, the.people have sus
tained great losses, and that the
money sealers have shown- great
increases in' valuations at the ex
pense of the people’s prosperity.:
Forty-Three State Officials
Testify.
The official figures from forty
three states and territories are pre
sented, ! n one ort w-o of the states
of the union the .fixing of property
valuation is arbitrary on the part
of the state and is made only once
in five-years. ■ This is the case in
Michigan, for instftce. In Rhode
Island and Connecticut there are
no returns of property for taxation
-at least no flguree showiug such
returns could • be obtained from
the proper officers of (lie state.
Of the others only North Dakota
and Delaware are missing; the ex
pected telegrams not having reach
ed here in time for this article.
The figures presauted are from
the official reports of the auditors
and comptrollers of state in forty
three states and territories. Of
these 4fi only twelve show an in
crease of property valuation,!*.
The remaining 31 show almo't
uniform decreases. The total in
crease for the twelve states la
$887,800,753. Of this amount
$235,883,482 conies from New York
alone. Seventy per cent, of the
entire increase in property valu-‘ ;
tion as shown by- these official re
turns comes from the great mon
ey center of the Union and 70 per
emit of the remainder comes from
the two states of Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania, each of them
strong financial centers. The to
tal increase in the remaining nine
atates' is on 1 y $80,822,002,
