Mr. Curtis sometimes writes in such
a vein as to lead one to suppose that he
believes in the gold standard. When
the direct question is raised, he dis
claims being a silver man, and by im
plication he does the same when the
point under consideiation bears so im
mediately upon the main issue that its
decision necessarily and palpably in
volves the entire question, as in the
statement concerning, silver production
which is elsewhere commented upon.
If he openly conceded that silver had
fallen compared with gold, or, more
properly, that gold had risen compared
uith silver, because of silver's demon
etization, it would be si complete sur
render of the gold side of the case. But
wherever the connection is not so pat
ent where there is a chance for hedg
ing, qualifying and explaining, the
Whole trend of his writings is against
the gold standard.
A considerable portion of one of his
recent letters to the Chicago Record is
devoted to a statement by ex-Gov.
Shepherd, relative to business condi
tions in Mexico. What the governor
says is here given in full:
Kx-Gov. A. R. Shepherd, who is now
principal owner and manager of the
Hatopilas silver mines, in Chihuahua.
Mexico, has been spending the winter
in Washington for the first time since
he left here Eixtetn years ago. and be
fore leaving for his Mexican home yes
terday he addressed the following let
ter to Representative Newlands of Ne
vada, in reply to some Inquiries from
that gentleman concerning the eco
nomic condition of Mexico as a silver
basis:
"I have been a resident of Mexico
since 1870. When I first went there
the ratio between silver and gold was
lo'fc to 1. The first exchange I bought
was at the rate of 15 per cent in coin
silver on a New York draft. Since
then, owing to the demonetization of
Bilver, many changes have occurred in
the rate of exchange. During the fam
ine, which existed the whole period
from 1889 to 1892, when two-thirds of
all the grain used for food in Mexico
was brought from the United States,
the rates of exchange ranged from 60
to 95 per cent, and at times went as
high as 100. Notwithstanding this.
Mexico met all her obligations, paid all
her interest, and suffered less than any
country-
"The present condition of the silver
market is leading the Mexican people
to doing their own manufacturing. As
an instance of this I may cite Chihua
hua as an example. An iron foundry
and machine shop was established
there some time ago. with $60,000 capi
tal, for the purpose of manufacturing
the mining and other machinery for
which there was a large and growing
demand in that vicinity and which was
formerly supplied by the United States.
The success of this venture may be re
alized when it is known that the capi
tal stock was increased to $300,000, and
that the company secured a contract
recently for a large amount of machin
ery in competition with the firm of
Fraser & Chalmers and other large con
cerns in this country. Cheap clothing,
all of which was formerly purchased in
the United States and Europe, is now
manufactured in Mexico. At Chihua
hua a canning establishment, with a
capital of $1,500,000, is now being or
ganized for the purpose of preserving
meats and fruit, and a large brewery,
with a capital of $200,000. is being put
in operation. A woolen factory, with
$200,000 capital, was started, and was
enlarged last season to meet the in
creased demands upon it, and smelters
at Chihuahua now treat the Mexican
ores that were formerly sent across the
border at heavy expense.
"Numerous other enterprises have
been established and are contemplated,
all having the effect of giving remuner
ative employment to Mexican artisans
and laborers, and what is equally im
portant, serving to keep Mexican mon
ey in Mexico, for the fruit of all these
forms of industry represents the life
necessities of which Mexico has hither
to been dependant on this country and
Europe.
"The conditions in Chihuahua are
truer of the more advanced portions of
Mexico, and the development is steady
and remarkable throughout. In the
northwest of Mexico a railroad will be
built within the next year, running
from El Paso to a point south of Cor
ralititas, a distance of 250 miles, open
ing up a country rich in mines and
agricultural resources. The $5,000,000
capital for the undertaking has been
furnished by New York parties.
"The conditions of the people have
improved correlatively with the devel
opment of the country. The district of
El Fuerte, which furnishes the part of
the mountains in which our mines are
located, has doubled in population in
the last fifteen years and its productive
capacity correspondingly increased.
Formerly the peon system of labor,
which pervaded all Mexico, was the rule
in El Fuerte. Now the scarcity of
workmen is so great that almost
everything is produced on shares, and
it is almost impossible to raise a crop
unless the workmen are interested in it.
"Another instance may be recited
showing the wonderful progress of
northwest Mexico. When the Mexican
Central railroad was first opened it w-as
thought that the northern part of it
would be unremunerative. The open
ing of mines and the development of
agriculture along this portion, how
ever, has made it one of the most profit
able sections of the road.
"""Shortly before my departurel"was
conversing with a very intelligent
Mexican banker. He declared that he
wanted the difference l-etween silver
and gold maintained, as it enabled the
Mexicans to keep their money in their
own country. Oilier Mexican financiers
with whom I have talked hold the same
views.
"There have been but two or three
bank failures since I have resided
there. The Mexican hanks arc required
to keep one-third of their circulation
in silver dollars in their vaults.
"The system in Mexico allows the
miner to send his silver to the govern
ment depositories and receive silver
dollars in return for It in any part of
the country where there is an assay
office, the government tax and cost
being about 4 per cent.
"Perhaps the best sign of the stabil
ity of Mexico under a silver policy may
be found in the fact that Mexican 5 per
cent bonds stand at 93 in Ixndon."
This is exactly in line with what Mr.
Curtis has stated as the result of his
own observations in Japan, and there
can be no doubt that in thus quoiiug
Gov. Shepherd at length, he intends to
lully sanction the statements made,
especially as they are given without
comment.
A man like Edward Atkinson, who is
utterly incapable of reasoning from
cause to effect, might say exactly what
is given above, and still believe in the
gold standard, but Mr. Curtis is a much
abler man than Atkinson, and it is dif
ficult to see how he can so clearly
recognize the benefits which Mexico
and Japan are reaping from the use of
silver, and still believe that free coin
age would ruin the United States.
That the appreciation of gold is
stimulating the industries of Mexico
on many important lines, is too plain
for discussion. It, in fact, is denied by
no one who understands the situation
and is cajidid enough to speak without
disguise. The gold people do not meet
this point fairly. They say, "See how
much greater, richer, and more ad
vanced the United States is than Mex
ico," and then they seek to convey the
impression that it is owing to our es
tablishment of the gold standard, while
Mexico uses silver. They entirely ig
nore the self-evident fact that the
I'nited States was always far in ad
vance of Mexico. Even in greenback
times, when our only money consisted
of depreciated paper, worth but 40
cents on the dollar, we were away
:head of Mexico, which was then doing
business with silver dollars worth
about five cents more than the Amer
ican gold dollar. Nay, we were then
relatively farther in advance than we
are now, because of late years Mexico
has been gaining upon us rapidly.
A few years ago Great Britain was
vastly richer than the United States,
and her business was incomparably
greater, but that did not prove that her
form of government or her financial
syestem was better than ours. The
reason was that Britain had the start
of us. But we have overhauled and
passed her, and we are now the richest
nation in the world, although by no
means so rich as we would have been
if we had not gone deliberately at work
to cripple our own resources and in
crease the burden of our debt by de
stroying one of the money metals with
which that debt might have been paid,
and of which metal we were the great
est producers. So we are a long way
in the lead of Mexico for various rea
sons with which students of history are
familiar, but our adoption of the gold
standard in 1873 is not one of those
reasons.
As between American and Mexican
conditions at the present time, the
question is one of comparative im
provement, and there is no intelligent
and fair-minded investigator who de
nies that Mexico is now gaining ground
with race-horse spt .1.
The explanation of the advantages
that inure to the silver standard coun
tries has been frequently given in these
columns, and the matter will not be
gone into now. The reader is simply
urged to carefully read what Gov.
Shepherd says, as presented by Mr.
Curtis, and then seriously ask himself
how a money standard that is so nour
ishing to the industries of Mexico
could possibly be rank poison to those
of our own country. National Bimetal-list.

To-day's lesson includes Luke 22: 21-37.
The explanations are as follows:
24. "There was a strife among them." The
strife was probably occasioned by either one
or both of the following reasons: (1) The strife
may have arisen, as we Infer from the lesson
Jesus gives his disciples, from the fact that
there was no servant to perform the necessary
but menial service of washing the travel-soiled
feet of the disciples, and none of them were
willing to perform it for the others. Who
should serve and who should be served was
the question. (2) It may have arisen with ref
erence to the places of honor at the table. It
is quite possible that those sought the best
places who had received unusual honors, as
the three who had been selected for the
transfiguration, Peter, with the keys, Judas,
the treasurer, James and John, who had asked
to be nearest the king. Jesus was soon to be
glorified, and they looked forward to influ
ential places in the new klnsdom.
25. "Tho king of the Gentiles exercise lord
ship over them." Hetter, lord It over them.
It implies a wrong exercise of authority, In
the interest, not of the subjects, but of the
rulers. Plumptre. "And they that exercise
authority thave lordship) are called bene
factors." Insist on being called "benefactors."
Sadler.
26. "Rut ye shall not do so." The principles
of Christ's kingdom are the exact reverse cf
thote of most of the former worldly kingdoms.
The leaders are not to rule, but to serve.
To have all the rays of Joy center in us as a
focus that is fire, the heart of sin ; to be the
center from which rays emanate to all that
is the sun, the heart of heaven. "But he that
is greatest among you." Some are greater
than others, and it is blessed for all that it
is so. It would not be well if God had made
men as the machine makes pins, "all heads
alike." "Let him be as the younger." Hum
ble, retiring, never putting himself forward,
hut ever ready to serve, as the younger were
expected to wait upon the elder. "And he
that is chief, as he that doth serve." Using
his position, his talents, his wealth, every
thing that makes him chief, as a means of
serving his" fellowiuen and doing them good.
27. "I am among you as he that serveth."
I who am the greatest am the servant of all.
Jesus "came not to be ministered unto, but
to minister, and to give his life a ransom for
many." This is true greatness, far above the
greatness of talent or rank.
28. "Continued with roe in my temptations,"
trials; all that he had borne during the last
three years.
29. "I appoint unto you a kingdom." They
shall be sharers in his glory, as they had
been In his afflictions (Romans 8: 17). They sit
on Invisible thrones; but no earthly kings of
the past or present exert so powerful an in
fluence on men as do these humble disciples.
None have such honor, dignity, reward and
majesty. And they rule by serving.
30. "That ye may eat and drink at my table
in my kingdom." This was a symbol of the
highest dignity and closest intimacy with the
king of kings. "And sit on thrones, judging
(ruling over, governing, as the judges of old
did in Israel) the twelve tribes (the whole
body) of Israel." Just when and how this
shall be fulfilled we may not know. But what
ever Christ's kingdom shall be, of that th;y
shall be a part; they shall partake of his joys,
his triumphs, his glory, his reign.
31. "Simon, Simon." The name is repeated
to Impress the importance of what follows.
"Satan hath desired to have you." has asked,
expressing his strong desire, as if thus he
could overthrow the very rock on which the
church was to be built, "That he may sift
you as wheat." That he may toss and shake
you up, by temptations, persecutions, dangers
and alarms, like wheat tossed into the wind
by the winnowing fan ; so that you shall fall
away from the faith as the chaff and dust
are blown away from the threshing floor.
32. "But I have prayed for thee," with the
effectual, fervent prayer of the righteous man.
"That thy faith fail not," that you be found
true wheat, and only your chaff be blown
away. Peter had great need of this sifting.
"And when thou art converted." Turned back
from thy sin. and made a new man, like gold
tried in the fire. "Strengthen (stablish, con
firm in the faith) thy brethren," who will pass
through similar trials. Compare Job 1: 9. The
warning left a deep impression on Peter's
mind.
33. "Lord. I am ready to go with thee."
The Greek' order lays the emphasis on with
thee. It did not seem possible to Peter that
he could fail.
34. "I tell thee, Peter." the rock. "The cock
shall not crow," which was usually about 3
o'clock in the morning. "Thou shalt thrice
deny." From Mark (14: 30, 31) we learn thaX
Peter indignantly and vehemently protested
against this statemenf; and all the apostles
joined with him in declaring that they would
die before they would deny him.
35. "When I sent you." etc. Hitherto the
apostles had depended on Jesus, personally,
and every necessary want was supplied.
36. "But now, he that hath a purse," etc.
Hereafter you are to work under other cir
cumstances, amid opposition, and hatred, and
persecutions. Therefore, provide your own
living, work with your hands, use every proper
means. "He that hath no sword," etc.
Rather, as revised version, he that hath no
purse from which to buy a sword, let him even
sell his cloak to get one.
37. "This that Is written (in Isaiah 63: 12)
must yet be accomplished (fulfilled) In me."
The hour was at hand when be would be
treated as a malefactor, and crucified, and the
disciples would be left like sheep without a
shepherd. ,
