Thus we remained until 1878. We
1 tried to.keep the legal tender coins

toiIW time under a system of free coin
age. hut had utterly failed. In 1878 a
now policy was adopted and it was de-
termned to restore ttoo standard silver
dollar to the coinage and to circulation
with full logoi tender qualities not
by opening the mints to its free and un
limited coinage on Individual account,
as Is now proposed, but by providing
for ttoe purchase and coinage of rot
more than four million dollars’ worth
nor less than two million dollars’ worth
of silver bullion each month by the gov
ernment Itself. Under this act, and the
so-called Sherman act. and the act pro-
ivldlng for the recoin ago of the Wade
I dollars, there have been coined at the
/ mints of the United States and put Into
circulation during the seventeen year*
J397.662.873 In full legal tender stand
ard silver, eb against J8.030.000 coined
during the whole iprevtoiu existence
of the government—a period of elgOvty-
nlno yeans. In other words, there have
been coined and put Into circulation
among the people. In coin Itself or In
certificates Issued upon it. nearly fifty
times as many full legal tender silver
dollars sis were produced at the mints
of the United States fromh 1792 to 1878,
and yet some gentlemen are writing
books and* in soring speeches* to convince
their fellow citizens that silver Is de
monetized in this country. There wa»
never In our whole history one-third
as much legal tender silver In use In
Ithe United States at one time as there
Is now, and it Is used without depriving
i» of ell our gold which was never done
before. Silver Is not demonetized in
this country, but its coinage has been

i rinents, and unfortunately there is no

people of the United States to bo com
pelled by law to .ecelre them as dol
lars In the payment of debts, although
not Intrinsically worth more than 60
cents each. The 25 8-10 grains of stand
ard gold contained In a gold dollar Is
worth 100 cents, or the equivalent of
100 cents, all over the world, in silver-
standard countries as well as In gertd-

of silver to procure 1 pound ftf gold

that It Is not a fair statement, because

measure tho value of either of the
metals, tout simply to compare them,
one wJh .the other, and that for the
purpose of making the comparison the
value of gold Is determined by Its
purchasing power In the markets of
the world, and the value of silver is
determined in the same way. Sixteen
pounds of silver bullion iwlU purchase
only about one-halt the quantity of
commodities anywhere than 1 pound
ot gold bullion will purchase, and tills
purchasing ponver Is the true test ot
their actual end relative values. In
the United States 16 pounds of sliver,
coined Into riollaro, will now purchase
as much as one pound of gold co.ns,
but this would not be The case under
a system of free and unlimited coin
age on individual account. The coinage
of silver dollars here has been limbed
by law for tile purpose of preventing
an excessive Issue, and they, have torten
coined hy tho government on Sts own
account and paid out for public pur
poses as dollars full of value, and con-
seusemly the government Is bound by
every consideration of good faith to
say nothing of .the positive declara
tions contained In the satutes, to keeip
them as good as gold, or, In other
words, to maintain the parity of the
tlwo metals; and ibis It has done and
will continue to do as long as the pres
ent system exists. But. if the present
system is to be abolished and a new
one established, so that private Indi
viduals and corporations can have
their own bullion coined at public ex
pense and have the coins delivered to
them for their private use; the govern
ment would be under no obligation
whatever, legal or equitable, to keep
them as good gs gold, and. In fact, It
would be Impossible for them to do so,
because the coinage would be unlim
ited and the volume of silver In circu
lations would become so great In pro
portion to the gold the government
could procure that the attempt would
necessarily, fall. The most extreme ad
vocates of free coinage have noit yet
ventured to suggest {hat the govern
ment would toe under any Obligation to
guarantee or maintain the value of
silver dollars coined without charge
for private parties, and' without such
guarantee It is clear the dollar would
be worth no more than the commercial
value of the bullion contained In It.
just as the Mexican dollar is now. I
admit that If the United States couhl
coin without charge to the owners all
the sliver in -the world avJBlatole for
coinage purposes, 412 1-2 grains ot
standard stiver, in bullion, would be
worth as muoh in this counrty as a
silver dollar; tout the real question la,
What -would the silver dollar Itself be
worth ? Itiat It iwlU not be equal to our
present unit and standard of value la
not only admitted, tout openly urfi-d
as one of the chief arguments In fa
vor of Its free coinage. Everywhere
the people are toeing told that under
free coinage It will require tr.vice as
many dollars to -procure any given
quantity of commodities ns are re
quired now. When the public Judg
ment is finally -passed upon t-hls sub
ject, I think It twill be found that the
people of the UUMed States are de
termined not to have a depreciated
dollar- .whether It toe gold, silver or
paper. They at-e undoubtedly entitled
to halve for’ use in their business just
ns good money as any other people in
the world have, and no -political -party
that attempts to deprive them of It
will ever enjoy their confidence or re
ceive their suffrages.
Those of us who oppose -the free coin
age ot silver at the ratio of 16 to 1
are now proposing no change In the
measure or standard of value now ex
isting, nor are -we .proposing to discon
tinue the use of sliver as money. I
have never been, and am not now, un
friendly -to silver In the sense of desir
ing to see It excluded from the mone
tary system of the United States, or of
any other country, but I know that It
cannot be kept In circulation along
-with gold by means of ony ratio the
law of any one country may attempt
to eitatoHSh betaveen the two metals,
and that the only way to secure the
use of tooth at the same time is to
make one of the the standard of value
and so limit the coinage of -the other
that the government whkfi Issues them
for public dues may toe able at all
times to maintain their exchangeabil
ity. either directly or Indirectly
through the operation of Its fiscal sys
tem. I am, therefore, In favor of 1he
preservation of the existing standard
of value with such use of full legal
tender silver coins, and paper con-
vertfblle In coin on demand, as can be
maintained without impairing or en
dangering the credit of the govern
ment or diminishing tho purchasing
or debt-paying power of the money In
the -hands of the p-ople. This Is what I
mean by the term "sound money", nnd,
In my opinion, It Is what is meant
by an ovetlwhelmlng majority of the
opponents of free coinage nt the ratio
of 16 to 1. This Is neither gold mono
metallism nor silver monometallism,
but I* means that one standard or
measure at value Shalt be maintained,
and that sH forms of rtfi-ndard coins
in use shall he kept equal to that
standard In the purchase of comtnmo-
ditica and In the payment of debts.
Any policy which would discontinue
the use of silver ns money, by direct
legal enactment, or -by undervaluing
It relatively to gold In the coinage
laws, would certainly result In practi
cal gold monometallism, and, on the
other hand. It 4* equally clear that any
policy which -would discontinue the use
at gold as money, by legal enactment
or toy undervaluing that metal rela
tively to sliver In. the coinage la.ws,
would result .In practical silver mono
metallism. Free and -unlimited coin
age at the ratio of 16 to 1 would of
once establish silver monometallism,
pure and* simple, for, as already shotwn,
the coins of the over-valued metal
•will ultimately drive (he coins of the
other out of circulation and out of the
country, even when the legal ratio
varies, tout a email fraction from the
comerdal ratio, tout the expulsion of
undervalued cotn from idnoulatlon
would toe Instantaneous when Us value
is really dotfble the value of the other.
How long do you suppose the 1625.000,.
000 of gold In this country would re
main here and be used a* money under
such a policy? The banking and other
great financial Institutions, which own
and hold In their reserves much the
greater part of this solB, -would at once
sell IJ at a large premium for sliver-
shout two dollars for one dollar—or
they would exchange vt for ullver bull
ion In the market at the ratio of about
32 pounds of silver for each one pound
of gold, have the 32 pounds of silver
coined into dollar* at the expens-
the people, and wish this Cheap money
pay the demands of the depositors and
other creditors. The masses of the
PiOple cannot do this, for they have
no gold nor have they any silver bull
ion to be coined a* the expense of the
government.
But U Is said that a though the
masses of tho people have no bullion,
many of them are In driot, and thst the
free coinage of silver would Increase
price* and give them more money,
thus enabling them to dlethsnte th»lr
obligations more easily. The merit of
this argument will be judged’ by each
Individual according to die vlow which
he may take of the nature of hts obli
gations to he people wtoo have loaned
money or sold -property -to him. If a
man who has -borrowed a thousand
dollars In gold, or Its equivalent, and
has promised to pay it, or has pum
chssed a thousand dollars* worth of
another man’s property and promised
to pay for It In the standard money
recognized by law* at the date of *118
contract, -believes -that Vt would be Just
and horreot to discharge Ills obliga
tion In a new standard worth only
half as much as tho money he bor
rowed or, tile property he purchased,
he -would appreciate and indorse this
argument and It would too useless to
discuss the question -with him. But If,
a* I haivo already endeavored to show,
the Immediate effect of tho adoption of
a free coinage policy at tho ratio of
16 to 1 would be to contract the cur
rency to tile exltenf of about 1625,000,-
000, by tho withdrawal of that
amount <tf gold from circulation and
from use as the basis of notes and
other formB of credit, prices would not
even nominally advance. On the con
trary, for the time being, a* least, this
coirtraetlon Would greatly reduce prices
because It would alarm the country,
destroy credit, and undoubtedly pro
duce tho most serious financial dis
turbance this country has ever'iwlt-
nested.
Every depositor te the saivlngs and
other banks, fearing that he would
ult'matply be paid in depredated sliver,
would Immediately demand t-he return
of h’B money and tills would compel the
banks to call at once for the payment
of ull the note** and other securities
they had discounted for their customers,
and the contraction of the currency
at the very time when it could not
bo obtained, and thus tho difficulty
ot the situation would be Increased
by tooth causes. The banks would toe
compelled to cither suspend payments
themselves or drive their customers,
who are generally business men—the
men who give'employment to labor In
every communUy—Into bankruptcy at
once. Who would profit by this condi
tion of affairs? Nobody except the
holders of tihe gold and the owners of
the silver miner, tho holdere of silver
bullion and tho brokers and speculators
lln the stockB of silver mining compa
nies. The people who owe debts and' are
lunabl to pay them would bo -the ones
to ouffer most, while the people who
owe no debts and have money on hand
would be -the one to profit most. Every
man la debt would be called upon ,U>
pay It promptly when due; there would
be no more extensions of old debts,
or any new credits given, because no
man could foretell what the money
would be worth at any time in the
future. In ttofa crash the laborer
would be thrown out of employmen t by
the failure or suspension of his em
ployer, the former would receive less
real money for his products, property
would toe sold at low rates under Ju
dicial proceedlns all over the country,
credit would be destroyed, nnd all In
dustrial and comnisrelal enterprises
would standstill, awaiting the result
o ftho newexperlment with the mone
tary system. Of course a great coun
try likto this, rich In -natural resources,
wc-uld ultimately recover In some meas
ure from even such a disaster, but
how long a time would be required -to
do so -no man can predict. All ttoe
mints of the United States, If devoted
entirely to ttoe coinage of silver dollars,
could produce only about forty million
dollars per annum, and, therefore, with'
free -coinage It would require more than
fifteen yeans to put silver dollars In
tho place of the gold we now have and
give back to the country the same
amount of metallic money now existing.
But, In the meantime, me would have
a depreciated standard of value with
nominally higher prices—after the first
collapse was over—on account ot the
reduced purchasing power of ttoe dollar,
and art the same time wo would have
for a long time fewer dollars to pay
with. Common prudence mould dictate
that, when any considerable change Is
to be made Six our monetary system,
some provision should be made In ad-
Sance of Ithe etetiual change for a
gradual transition from the old to the
now order of thing*; a transition period
should be provided for so as to avoid,
as far os possible, a sudden disturbance
of business anil' contraction of the cur
rency; but the advocates of free coinage
have no such purpose. They -propose
to make o' sudden and revolutionary
ohton're In the standard upon which all
existing contracts of the people are
basea and by wh ch all value* are rooas-
"• "d. and let 'heconsequences take care
of themselves’.
Burt, suppose the chhnge Is made,
nnd that the business affairs of tho
country have been finally adjusted to
the new standard what will he the
effect on our domestic trade? Tho
prices of all Ithings will toe nominally
Increased—that Is to say, It will require
a greater number of dollars to pur
chase a given amount of any commo
dity than It required before. Thsre ap
pears to toe a singular delusion In the
minds of some on this subject. Many
good people appear to think that in
noma mysterious manner, which no
one has yet attempted to explain the
government, by legislation or other
wise. can Increase the prices of ttoe
things they have to sell without In
creasing the prices of the 'things they
have to buy. If nhero is any financial
necromancy toy which this one-sided
Increase of prices can toe accomplished,
our free coinage friends ought to ex
plain It. to the people. The plain,
every-day, common sense view of (tola
subject Is the only correct on*. If
prices are Increased solely on aooount
of an increase In tho volume of circu
lation, or on account of s dcprectaltlon
of -the currency, without any Change In
the relation between the supply and
demand of the commodities to be ex
changed, -the Increaso In prices will
necessarily effect all things alike. If,
therefore, the farmer or planter re
ceives a greater number of dollars for
tols crop of cotton or wheat, he will be
compelled to pay a correspondingly
greater number of dollars for his agri
cultural implements. Consequently,
hi* profit, if he ha* any, will bear about
the same relation to his expenditures
that It hears now—that Is to say, If he
now make* a profit of 10 per cent, bo
(Will make a profit of no more than to
■per eent. then. Now a is out of the
clear profit* of his business that hs
roust pay his debts, and It therefore
remains to bo seen how much benefit
he would ultimately derive from a
nominal Increase In tho prices of com
modities. He cannot control the prices
of the commodities produced by "him to
the same extent that other producers
can conrtroi the prices of their*, and it
may be that the prices of the things
he Is compelled -to buy -will toe In-
created In much greater proportion
than the price* of the things he has to
sell, and If so. he will toe a loser In
stead of a gainer by the change.
It is contended, however, that prices
of commodities have fallen since 1872,
and that this reduction of prices has
made It more difficult to pay debts sow
than « .was then. It Is true that the
prices of some things have fallen, but
It Is equally true that the prices of
some things have Increased. It Is not
true, however, tha-t our people owe any
debts contracted as far hack as 1813,
hut It may be that some of our great
corporations which Issued bonds before
that -date still owe them, tout they
have all been refunded -at a low rat*
ot Interest, so that our free coinage
friends need not be disturbed on Their
account. The fundamental proposition
of the adwocates of free coinage Is (hot
all value* ore measured and all -prices
are fixed and regulated by the amount
of re-lernpUon money in the country,
and that the amount of p*lper cur
rency. or credit money, aa It Is some
time* called, such tts bank notes, gov
ernment notes «od other circulating
media, exert no influence on the values
or prices of commodities. Having
dogmatically asserted rthls principle,
they proceed -without further argu
ment <o the conclusion that -the legal
demonetization of silver In 3873, and
-the legal establishment of the gold
standard of value at that -time are tho
eauBe9 of the alleged decline In the
prices of oommodUes In this country,
and -then, upon the theory that high
prices for the necessaries of Hie would
toe a blessing to the people, they ap
peal -to the consumers of agricultural
and manufactured products to unite
wHh -them In ttoe effort -to secure the
free and unlimited coinage of all tho
silver that the owners ot toulllou may
see proper to present at tho mints.
Even If iwe should admit the -truth of
their -first proposition, tcelr conclusion
tha-t the demonetization of silver re
duced prices I* founded upon the as
sumption of a fact which cannot bc-
estatolished. They have wholly failed
to all ego, much less -to prove, that sil
ver actually constituted any gart of
the redemption money In use or in ex
istence lu this country before or at -the
-time of that legislation. If It did not,
then It Is cl bar that its legal demone
tization did not and could not In fact
reduce the amount of such money In
till* country, and, therefore, cannot
have reduced prices. It Is well known
personally to every gen-ilemari In this
audience who was old enough to know
what was transpiring In 1873 that there
was not a dollar of stiver In circula
tion at that date. The assumption
upon which the argument Is based Is
diametrically opposed -to the historical
and official fact. The only metallic or
redemption money in use here at thst
time was gold, iwhlctoi amounted to
only J13S.OOO.OOO, including what the
government was using, -whereas, we
now have about J625,000,000 in gold,
and $397,662,873 In (full legal tender
silver, besides about $77,000,000 In sub-
sldlary silver com. If. therefore,
prices have fallen since 1873, the de
cline has taken place in spite of The
fact that our full legal tender metal
lic money has been increased until It
now amounts to more than seven times
as much as -It did at. that dale, and
consequently tho nllegedl decline In
prices must -be attributed to some other
cause than the demonetization of sil
ver. These facts prove not only Mint
tho demonetization of silver did not
reduce the amount, at redemption
money In tills country, but they prove
also that the fundamental preposition
ot the advocates of fr.ee colnag* Is er
roneous and Mint prices hire ndt fixed
