Geo. E. Bowkn, a poet of national reputation,
on reading COIN'S FINANCIAL SCHOOL, wrote
the following opinion, which was published In the
Chicago Intkb Ocean of January 22, 1895.
Another book than "Trilby" Is reaching out for
fame.
Across the sky It flashes high the signal ot re
nown; Upon thef thought of millions It stamps a burn
ing claim
That glows and grows and brighter shows
when Midas turns to frown.
A simple little story dressed up In youthful style.
That comes to preach with happy speech a
wisdom more than wise
The critics lose their fury and stop to think and
smile,
And weigh the wit, and ponder It their reason
exerciae.
A story with a moral that measures human
peace.
And strikes the knell of Rothschild's spell, bind
ing the hands of toil.
A story that In every line tells of a glad release
From chains of gold that firmly hold the free
men of the soil.
Sing on, oh, fame! Sing to the world "Coin's"
story of tlie times:
Of golden ropes that strangle hopes and 411
the heart with drench
Sing to the jingling meter of the dollars and the
dimes
That win the spoil of honest toil but fail to
give it bread.
The pendulum is swinging back by nature's force
impelled.
And righteous fate will compensate a long un
equal rule.
The doubts and fears of cruel years are happily
dispelled
By truth enlightening the world In "Coin's Fi
nancial School!"
A book that will create a pro
found impression throughout the
United States.

The Chicago Times-Herald, in a re
cent issue, 6ays editorially:
"It was believed that the proposal
of an international agreement which
would be satisfactory to all Americans
had made such progress on the conti
nent that sooner or later it would be
accepted by England. That it would
be futile to undertake an international
monetary agreement on any ratio with
out the concurrence of England and
her dependencies will not be denied
by any who have studied the history
of trade or are familiar with the funda
mental principles of currency. A new
movement in opposition to any partici
pation by the English government in
any international conference for the
purpose ot rehabilitating silver has
appeared in London. Behind it are
formidable forces.
The entire banking interests of the
metropolis are associated with a pow
erful and probably a representative
body of the leading merchants. The
memorial they have presented to the
chancellor of the exchequer declares
that so long as it was proposed to re
vive the silver question in foreign
countries only they did not feel con
cerned, but that now they are con
strained to say that they view with ap
prehension any change in the currency
that has prevailed in that country
since 181(5. They appeal to the govern
ment to avoid entangling proposals
that might lead persons at home and
abroad to suppose that England is pre
pared to depart from the standard es
tablished by law and sanctioned by
custom.
"So long as the liberals remain in
power no action on the currency ques
tion for the purpose of altering it in
any manner can be expected from
Great Britain. It is doubtful whether,
even if the conservatives carry the ap
proaching general election, the party
could be induced to make Mr. Balfour's
views ofllcial. A grave change in the
outlook foran international agreement
must be admitted."
In the news columns of the same
issue appeared the following:
"The Emrlish bimetallic league is
pressing its crusade with great vigor,
and has a very imposing list of mem
bers both in numbers and business and
prominence. Its president is Henry
Gibbs, a director of the Bank of En
gland. As its chairman of the general
council it has II. II. Grenfell. Mr. Mc
Neill, the secretary, tells me that Mr,
Lidderdale, the famous ex-governor of
the bank, is a member.
"Besides Arthur Balfour, it numbers
many prominent politicians and influ
ential peers, including the dukes of
Aberdeen. Fife and Beaufort, Jacob
Bright, Sir Lepel Griflin, Henniker
Ileaton. Lord Rawton, Disraeli's
former adjutant, as well as the young
Disraeli. Sir Henry James, attorney
general in Salisbury's cabinet, and
Henry Chaplin, a member of the same
cabinet; Knatchbull llugesson and
many other members of parliament
"Among the bankers and business
men there are Charles and Alfred
Hoarc, Thomas Baring, Sir Thomas
Sutherland, chairman of the Peninsula
and Oriental Steamship Co.; Sir Samuel
Montagu and many others. It is well
known here that the movement has
the warm sympathy of the Roths
childs. It must be understood, how
ever, that the league is much opposed
to the free silver movement in the
United States, except as it may lead to
an international agreement. The in
terviews I haveyieretofore sent have
made this plain, and the league here,
for this reason, has constantly refused
to connect itself in any way with the
United States league."
IT MAKES US WEARY.
Our Lawmakers Fleari the Bahjr Act to Rid
Themselves or Responsibility.
The constant reiteration by free j
coinage advocates oi tne statement
that the Btandard silver dollar was
surreptitiously dropped from the coin
age of the United States by the act of
1S73, is somewhat wearisome. Lvery
person who has ever investigated the
subject knows that the act of 18 1 3 was
before congress for more than two
years oeiore it was auoptea. mere
were various recommendations to con
gress from the secretary of the treas
ury upon the subject touching the
very point of discontinuing the coin
age ot silver dollars, me question
was fully discussed in the house and
in the senate, and the claim afterwards
set up by senators and representatives
that they were not aware that the act
affected the coinage of silver was pre
posterous. The Records give the lie to
that pretense. The only surreptitious
action relative to silver was in June,
1374, when the commission appointed
by congress to compile from laws then
in force, a revision of the United States
statutes, inserted a clause in their re
port that had no existence in any stat
ute, providing thas "the silver coins of
the United States shall be a legal ten
der at their nominal value for any
amount not exceeding S3 in any one
payment;" and congress adopted that
report without knowing what it con
tained. Topeka Advocate.
Crisp for Silver.
Speaker Crisp pnts a quietus on the
discussion over his views of the finan
cial question in the following card,
given out for publication, dated Amer
icus. Ga,, May 2S.
"Ever since I pave consideration to
the Question, I have been a believer in
and advocate of free and unlimited
coinage of silver. Ever since I entered
upon public life I have spoken, and
when opportunity offered, voted for it.
I still favor the free and unlimited
coinase of silver by the United States
independently at the ratio of 1(5 to 1.
How anyone at all acquainted with my
public utterances and acts can have
mistaken or been in doubt as to my po'
sition is a mvsterv to me. My excuse
for this card is misrepresentation; my
hope is that this will end it."
It is time to revise and amend a
constitution under which five judges
of tne supreme court can defeat the
A Sufficient Volume of Absolute) Paper
Mon.T Would Neutralise the Evils f .
Metalllsm.
Should Europe or any considerable
portion of it agree to restore free coin
age of silver tbe benefits to the United
States silver remonetization would be
lessened. The great advantage of our
silver money is, it is non-exportable,
being worth more here than anywhere
else. But with free coining in France
and Germany our silver money would
be liable to get upon and leave us at
any time, and being together with gold
the "basis" of other money and of
business, financial disturbance would
follow, as it now follows any consider
able export of gold. However, if the
United States should provide for home
use a sufficient volume of paper money,
in no way tied to or depending OH .
either gold or silver, the foreign free
coinage of silver would be an advan
tage, because both silver and gold then
could be kept in chunks by our
dealers in foreign exchange and ex
ported and imported without interfer
ing with business in this country. We
believe and have for years believed it
would be a good, thing if gold and
silver were both at a premium or dis
count as compared with paper money,
that is, if there was enough abso
lute paper money. Such premium or
discount fluctuating more or les as it
would be, would prevent the metal en
tering circulation and thereforo large
exportations of these metals wo Ud not
contract the volume of money in circu
lation. The fact that the precious
metals are liable to be needed for ex
port at any time, is the strongest argu
ment, in our opinion, that they should
not be made the basis of our monetary
system, for exporting a part of them
when they are the basis, is like remov
ing a portion of the, foundation of a
house. The idea of making the basis
gold alone is preposterous. With only
8100,000,000 of gold, as is believed by
many, and only 8000,000,000 as the
highest estimate, as a basis, our busi
ness interests would be but a plaything
in the hands of foreign capisalists.
They could quietly asrree among them
selves that they would not reinvest in
the United States their interest for a
year on the notes and bonds they hold
against our people, and we would
have to send them one-third to one
half of our money basis and business
disaster and hard times would follow.
With free coinage of silver and both
silver and gold as a basis the with
drawal of one hundred or two
hundred million dollars from this
country would not hurt so
much, because the amount with
drawn would not be so great a
per cent, of the whole. But with
a sufficient volume of paper money
based on recelvability for all dues to
national, state, county and city gov
ernments and full legal tender for all
debts, and wholly independent of the
metals, and with the metal money out
of circulation by reason of a premium
or discount, Europe might take our
gold and silver without in the 'least
disturbing our business affairs. Aud
even if the metal money were in circu
lation a withdrawal ot $100,000,000 or
1200,000,000 of it would be such a small
part of the whole volume, its exporta
tion would not prove very injurious.
With three billions of absolute money,
consisting of paper, silver and gold.
the shipment abroad of 8200,000,000 ol
gold, would contract the money oi
final account only 7 per cent Bui
with gold as the basis such an exporta
tion of gold would bring bankruptcy
and ruin to all enterprise. Absolut
paper money for home use; the metals
for international transactions, is the
only thing that will give stability to
business and free us from the power ol
foreign capitalists. The next best
thing is a larger basis to be brought
about by the unlimited coinage ol
silver, and the issuance of more green
backs with the exceptions removed.

sentiment of the vvest when it says,
"it is free coinage or disruption of the
