IE WEALTH MAKERS May 23, 1895 BIG MEN IN DEBATE. W. H. HARVEY AND PROF. J. U LAUCHLIN. Editor mt Tola" MikM Hto tbe Wide OpealB ot the Silver Prof. Langhlla for Standard. Flea for Mats to the Gol4 Chicago. May SO. Last night at the II llnols club house Prof. J. Laurence Laughlln, of the University of Chicago, and W. H. Harvey, author of "Coins Financial School," debated on the sub Ject: "Reaolved. That the United Btatea should enter at once upon the free coin age of diver at the ratio to gold of 16 to I, Independent of the action of any other nation." There was a great deal of disappoint ment that the club house could not hold more people, because hosta of citizens ought admission. But the club con fined the attendance strictly to Ha own membership and about 200 Invited guests, prominent hanking and busi ness men and men that might be se lected by Prof. Laughlln and Mr. Har vey. Mr. Harvey opened the debate. He said in part: "The first reason why I am in favor of independent action by this country is that we should not be subjected to the influences of the governments of Europe. If people can be reduoed to poverty and the prosperity of the United States can be ruined by hang ing to the financial policy of Europe, then we can be reduced to the same con dition by financial legislation as a war of conquest would reduce us. The monometalllsts mostly say or admit bi metallism would be good if we could get International bimetallism. In other words, they agree that there Is something radically wrong, but olaim that we are tied to the financial policy of Europe." This Mr. Harvey denied. He went on: "The governments of Europe are plutocrats. They squeexe the lemon fdr the people about every so often. The few control class legis lation and the masses are hewers of wood and drawers of water for the titled few. Now, if financial legislation Is one of the classes of class legislation by which the many are robbed and the few are enriched, then It Is one ot the insti tutions of the European governments that we as a nation of people, repub lican In form, should declare our inde pendence of. That is the first reason why Independent financial action should be taken by the United States. If they say, "We must have the same money that they have In order to carry on business with them," my reply is "that the biggest business we ever did carry on with the balance of the world, and particularly Europe, was the time when they had gold and silver as money and we had neither. This nation can have an independent financial system without say reference whatever to the balance of the world, and can carry on its own commerce by ocean and by land with the other governments of the world notwithstanding. We give them our wheat and we take their silks, and the balance that we may owe them or they may owe us will be settled Just as the merchants be tween the importing points may agree to settle It. They can settle it in gold for so much a pennyweight as measured in the money of their country or our country, or In so much silver or so much copper, or so much of any other mer chandise that may be agreed upon be tween them in their trade relations. There is no such thing as an interna tional money. "Growing out of a long accustomed habit the men who have studiously cul tivated class legislation for their bene fit have Impressed the common masses with certain apparent fixed principles which they are to be controlled by, and one of them Is the necessity of interna tional money, Just as they have made you believe that national bank money was necessary. Now, the reason be hind that Is this: They can go to Wash ington and hypothecate their bonds, draw the Interest thereon, get a loan on these bonds to 90 per cent of their face value, without paying any inter est, to loan it to you at from 7 to 12 per cent This is a soeclal privilege. And we have learned not to blame people for doing these things. But we should. It should be a common country conducted for the benefit of all the people." He defined the position of the silver ites thus: "What we are contending for is the opening of the mints to the free coinage of silver (they are now open to the free and unlimited coinage of gold and have never been closed been closed to that metal) and the establishment of bimet allism on those simple and fixed prin ciples adopted by those statesmen who had In view the Interest of no class, but of all the people. What we want is bi metallism. And sclentlflo bimetallism is this: ; First Free and unlimited coinage of both gold and silver: these two metals to constitute the primary or redemption money of the government. Second The silver dollar of 874 grains of pure silver to be the unit of value and gold to be coined into money at a ratio to be changed if necessary from time to time if the commercial parity to the legal ratio shall be affected by the action of foreign countries. Third The money coined from both metals to be legal tender in the pay ment of all debts. Fourth The option as to which of the two moneys Is to be paid In the liquidation of a debt to rest with the debtor, and the government also to ex erclse that option when desirable when paying out redemption money. "Silver is token money. It has been deprived of that unlimited demand It enjoyed prior to 1873. We would restore to It that unlimited demand. We would open the mints to it again. We would leave the ro'-ts open to gold as they are now. We would give sliver the same prlvillges as gold. Restoring to it this unlimited demand would cause the value of silver to rise as compared with gold. This is what we want. This la what we would do. We would again make the standard silver dollar the unit of value as It was before 1873. It would thus be a dollar, and the bullion in it would be worth a dollar, as the number of grains of bullion In a dollar would have the right to walk into the mint and be coined into a dollar. No man would take less for it when he could have it coined at pleasure into a dollar. We would make gold coins of the value of so many silver' units or dollars, as the law existed prior to 1873. Sliver Is the people's money. Gold always wa and is the money of the rich. We would make both legal tender in the payment of all debts. We would repeal the law of 1173 and the Sherman law of of 18M. authorizing contracts (bonds, notes, and mortgages) to be taken payable in gold only. We would allow no discrimina tion to be made between the legal ten der character of the two metals. We would allow no private Individual to dictate to the government what its le gal tender money should be. We would place the white metal on an equal foot ing with the colored metal without re gard to previous condition of race or servitude." Talking of the folly of a single gold standard, he made this point: A corner on beef can not seriously threat en the health of the people of this na tion so long as mutton and pork are in competition with beef. A corner on gold could not, as it does now, seriously threaten the credit of this nation if silver were in competition with gold as primary money." - Attacking the recent issue of bonds by the government, he said: "The bank of Rothschilds in England is now be hind the United States treasury. They are our financial agents, our financial managers. We are paying them the princely salary of $8,000,000 for each six months of their valuable services. We are now In the hands of the pawn brokers of Europe. We are a debtor nation and our people and corporations are heavily in debt to the people in Eng land, and the Interests on what we owe them amounts to annually about 8260. 000,000, payable in gold. They demand gold. The contracts call for itln gold. To pay this we have a balance 3ue us In trade with Europe of about 1100,000. 000. That leaves $150,000,000 still left to pay them. How do we pay it? We pro duce about $40,000,0000 In gold yearly. We give them that This leaves about $100,000,0e0 still due them. How do we pay it 7 Out of our reserve stock of gold. With them getting all our money, represented by the balance due us on exports, and all our annual production of gold, and $100,000,000 annually from our reserve stock of gold, how is long Is our reserve s tock of gold, how long is are we to replenish it? There is only ne way that is to borrow it from those who have it and that means England. And that Is what we are doing. That means more Interest, more gold annually to be paid to England. Where will it end 7 It means the "dismal swamp" and "hell's half-acre" beyond. This Is what having a gold standard means." Closing his arguments, he declared: "The remonetlzatton of silver would put our manufactories at work. There is only $1,400,000,000 of sliver In the world that is not In the coins of the establish ed government. It would be the very best thing that could happen to this country if we could trade what is claimed to be $600,000,000 of gold In this country (but in truth less than $400,- 000.000) for all the silver of the world He declared the governments of the world were waiting for the United States to act, ready and eager to fol low, in the restoration of silver to its proper position. He closed: "If an un due and unrighteous Influence by schemers and tricksters abnormally en hances the value of gold so a commer cial parity at 16 to 1 cannot be main tained, then do as our forefathers did, change the ratio, and make the change In the weight and size of the gold coins. Monroe and Jackson did it. They were not called dishonest for doing so. They were legislating in the interest ot the people and not in the interest of the favored few. We are not compelled to, keep the legal ratio at 16 to 1; we can change It to 20 to 1, If necessary, to fix the legal ratio to correspond with the ommerclal ratio, but If the change is made let us make It in the rich man's meney. To lessen the size of the gold coins makes more dollars. To Increase the size of the silver coins makes less dollars. A parity at the same ratio is practicable as admitted by the expert' ence of ages. This is what we ask. ; "This is a question of capital on one side and humanity on the other, ot sound money the sound of the clod on the coffin on one side and sound money the sound that has the- honest ring of the people's money in It on the other side. It is a question of an English pel icy or an American policy. Which shall ltbe7." fixed rate of wages or salary will find he can buy just half as much as now. Free coinage of silver would make all the articles of the laborer's consumption cost him 100 per cent more unless he can get a rise in his wages by dint of strikes and quarrels and all the consequent dis satisfaction arising from friction be tween the employer and employe. He would be able to buy only half as many articles of consumption as he had before." The bonded debt of the railways la the United States Is about $8,000,000,- 000. If free coinage of silver were intro duced it would enable these railways to pay off their debts with what is now equivalent to about $3,000,000,000. They would thus be relieved of the necessity of paying the small Investors who have taken their bonds one-half of what these corporations now owe them, and it is only a few of such corporations and railways that have outstanding indebt edness that has run a long time and which could have been paid before the period of 1873." He closed his argument with the fol lowing statement: "In conclusion, extraordinary as is the proposal for free coinage, it is in truth only a huge deceit It was born in the private offices of the silver kings, nursed at the hands of speculators, clothed in economic error, fed on boodle, exercised in the lobby of congress, and as sure as there Is honesty and truth in the Ameri can heart it will die young and be bur ied in the same ignominious grave wherein lies the now-forgotten Infant once famous as the rag baby. Free coinage Is greenbacklsm galvanized in to life. That heresy in its old form of a demand for more money has already been laid low. It will not long deceive ur In its new f ormof a demand for mora silver, for silver fiatlsm, nor In any other respect is it . what it presumes to be. It is not a predecessor for bimetal lism. It is a wild leap In the dark for silver monometallism. Under the cry for more money are veiled the plans of a giant syndicate of mlneowners and speculators, who have hoodwinked the people in certain parts of the country and who are still diluting them with a specious arguments for more money, and are laughing in their sleep at constituency so easily gulled.

Prof. Laughlln, in his answering ad dress, spoke as follows: "Mr. Harvey has said there was a greater trade with Europe during the times when there was a freer coinage of gold and silver than since 1873. I have turned to the statistical abstract of the United States for 1894 and find that in 1872 the gross sum of both exports and Imports of the United States was eleven hundred and sixty-four millions; in 1894 fifteen hundred and forty-seven mill ions. Certainly that statement is not accurate." Prof. Laughlln also denied that we paid for our foreign goods by a drain on our gold. He made this point "Silver has lost Its stability of value. It is no better than ordinary metal for stability. The action of India sends it down 20 per cent. .The mere rumor of the Chinese indemnity sends it up 10 per cent. The more money there Is roaming about in circulation Is no reason why any one gets more of it. Money, like property, is parted with for a consider ation. It is only the machine by which goods are exchanged against one an other. No matter how valuable it is not wanted for Itself. Do 'we Insult any one's penetration by supposing that the congressional kings are going coaching about the country distributing their money for nothing? Our farmers are no fools. They know they can get more money by producing more commodities to be exchanged for it, and for those commodities they want as good money as any other men in the country have got." Of the act of 1873 he said: "Prices since 1873 have not fallen because of any lack In the quantity of money. Free coinage of silver at 16 to 1, means sin gle monometallism; 16 to 1 Is a single sliver standard ana we win start with all the South American countries and Mexico. Free coinage of silver then is absolutely certain to drive all gold out of circulation. The mere hint of it did that in the panic of 1893. May 1, 1895, the first of this morth, there were $568, 000,000 of gold in circulation. Since gold must be inevitably driven out if free coinage of silver is had there will be no increase in the quantity of money. If the people who support free coinage hope to increase the quantity of money it is perfectly evident on the face ot It that it will contract the currency by the total amount of ,568,000.000. As free coinage of silver would Inevitably re sult in a rise of prices it would lm mediately result In teh fall of wages. Its first effect would be to diminish the purchase power of all our. wages. The man who gets 8500 or $1,000 a year as a TRADE CONDITIONS. The Cold Snap a Factor la Retarding Progress In Trade. , New York, May 20. R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade, says: "The se vere cold snap, with extensive frosts, and in - some states snow, has fortu nately done little damage to the great crops, though much to fruit, but has considerably rearded retail trade. The best news of the week is the advance of 10 per cent in wages by the Carnegie works, followed by the Jones Laugh lln establishment, and evidently imply ing a similar advance by many other concerns. No advance has been found practicable in the woolen mills, where conditions as to prices and foreign com petition are very different and about 10,000 workers are still Idle at Olney vllle, where the works should consume 600,000 pounds per week. In other de partments of labor troubles are not se rlous, and the demand for manufactur ed products Increases. With material and steady enlarge ment in domestic trade there is still great want of employment in the inter ior for money which comes hither $3,500,000 during the last week and with the millions distributed by the syndi cate on bond account stimulates spec ulation. Accordingly wheat has risen five cents, although the reports of in- Jury by frost don't appear, upon sift ing, to concern any considerable pro portion of the growing grain. Western receipts for two weeks of May have been 2,917,305 bushels, against 2,600,298 last year, and Atlantic exports 3,059,484, against 4r565,101 last year, "being re duced by the advance in price less than would be expected because of generally current reports of di rease of acreage. With only six weeks of the crop year left the stocks In sight constitute a heavy surplus, if not as large as some western statisticians estimate. Corn has ad vanced only cent, being apparently injured more than wheat, but the acre, age gives promise of a yield of 2,000,000, 000 bushels. "Cotton is an eighth stronger, in spite of the fact that 9,618,081 bales had come into sight last Friday, which is over 400,000 bales more than the largest crop ever recorded. Goods are in fair de mand for the season and the advance in prices is maintained. "Wool was remarkably heavy for the last week at the three chief markets, the sales being 5,636,750 pounds, and for two weeks of May 11,059,750 pounds, against 11,767,750 in the same week of 1892, the last year of full demand. In that year the sales of domestic were 5,962,000 and this year 5,681,750 pounds. "Failures during the last week have been 211 In the United States, against 219 last year, and 37 in Canada, aglns 24 last year."
