Ia order that I eight be able to

Oh, to; there was a force more po

waa the cause asd the oaljr cause that
orre4 down the export price of the
barrl of four as shown ia the table
from to fl.ld I will explain un
der two. beads.
While it. was only oae force, the re
sult was produced through two chan
cel. One of the chancels was the
coaditloa cf tie people of Brazil and
their power to purchase the Cour in I
this country. The facts are as fol- j
low : Draall ws originally a part of I
paia and that the populatioa is of !
Ppjtrlfh descent. The prevaillrg
wates are and taTe been for years ;
fery low. The power to purchase our i
Cour was stretched to about its farth- i
est limit Ja 1ST2, wbea the Brazilian !
paid f 5r (rolnaa rvo. 4) ia his money
for our Coa at our ports, making the
at era ire cost at retail of a barrel of '
fVour in Br&tll about twelve dollars.
iy examicins column No. 4 you will
tn that the arerage price paid by the
BraxJLsn for i years, from 1STS to
1101, was tT.C-J barrel. This aver
age for the Ti years of per bar
rel at our porta proves conclusively
that the lirazilUa cannot and will cot
pay any more than this price as an av
erage for any length of time. The av
erage mail price cf the Cour In Krazil
that cxit JT.W per barrel ia this coun
try aould be more than fll per barrel
in thai country. In our country the
are-are waxe-e-arnT earns oa an av
erage of about Jlv) per day and buys
his Sour for less than $4 per barrel,
while the average waRe-earner in Bra
zil earns less than cents per day
cd has to pay about tlZ per barrel
for his four. The reader will see at
one glance that as a physical proposi
tion, the purchases c power of the Era
zilUs's earnings will not admit of any
advance ia the price cf Cour in his
country.
Such were the conditions la 1VT3 and
such are the conditions today. I re
peat acaln that the Brazilian cannot
and will not pay any more than til to
U2 per barrel for his Cour at re
tail. Now for che real and tangible
force that caused the decline in the
export price of the barrel of 2our to
Brazil from 3.4 la 1S75 to $4.10 ia
1101.
What was It that the Brazilian pur
chased the barrel of Cour with In this
COjttnr la 2ST3? It was with the com
mercial Taiue of the ounce cf silver
and that the ccnuaerclal ralu was
about 11.T per ounce la 1ST2. During
1551 the Brazilian also, paid for his
barrel cf Cour la this country with the
commercial Tzlae cf the ounce cf sil
ver wekh had declined ia Its commer
cial -value as selling price from L23
3L This aho-Tt that the decline ia
the purthasicg power of the ounce of
silver had been reduced about I per
cet- Now one of two things tad to
fcappea If the American farm.ra sold
ioir to the Brazilian during 1&01. was,
either the American farmer- - would
hae to tak abewt ZZ per cent Jess for
hit ffocr thsa thy cil during 1S73
which would m.ean th'.t our farmers
wtKiU hare to take 45 per cent of $3.4
whk'h woald be per barrel "for
his Socr. If the Brazilian paid enough'
of his money so the American farmers
maid ret the J3.4C per barrel for the
Cour durins 1&01 the Brazilian would
ha ve to pay 121 of his money for a .bar
rel f Cour at 'oar ports. I hare shown'
conclusively, that the Brazilian could
not asS he would tot paytsuch more
for his four during ?01 tha:rb did
during- 1IT3. " The table shovt';snd
the fact show that ..my staifa,iti.
and propositions are true. Tte A
. lata would net pay much, if ar.y m
for tcefr Cour In l&l than ia 1
had to reduce the export prfc f ?
Z-o-ir from J 5 to $1.10 h.?. i & it.
prk-m of $4.29 the nraziiiaa
pay about $i la his money f
ia this eointry and af,r
to his roaatry ould t-
per barrel as &a. ave
kl csrz&ttj.
This proves beyond all question that
the force, and the only force, that
pressed down the export price of tho
barrel of Cour from $9.46 to $4,10 was
the force created by the decline in the
commercial price of the ounce of sil
ver from $1.29 in 1873 to about 53
cents in 130L As a further proof that
It was the decline In the selling price
of the ounce of silver that caused the
decline In the export price of the
Cour we find that while the ounce of
silver fell in its selling price from
IL29 to about S8 cents, which was. a
decline cf about 55 per cent, the de
cline In the price of the barrel of flour
from $9.46 to $4.10 was about 56 per
cent. The facts set forth in this short
statement proves almost in a tangible
way that it was the fall of 55 per cent
ia the commercial value, or selling
price of the ounce of silver, that caused
the fall In the selling price of the bar
rel of flour 56 per cent.
There la only one way to raise the
export price very much of the barrel
of flour or the bushel of wheat, and
that Is to raise the commercial price
of the ounce of silver and to place
the American farmers on the same
plain In the markets of the world as
the farmers from many other
countries. The - commercial price
of the ounce of silver must be placed
at $1.29.
Of course wide-spread crop failures
would raise the price of wheat and
flour. But outside of starving fam
ines there Is only one force and that
is the force that would be created by
advancing the commercial price of the
ounce of silver from about 58 cents per
ounce to $1.29 per ounce. If that were
done and conditions of crops as to
quantity were normal in the world,
wheat would advance In its export
price to about $1.30 per bushel and
the barrel of flour would advance in
its selling price to about $8 per barrel.
This is no fancy sketch. The ad
vancing of the commercial price of
the ounce of silver from about 58
cents to $1.23 would certainly pro
duce effects about as stated above.
With the conditions of the crops as at
present in the world, being much be
low the normal as to quantity, the ex
port price of wheat would be about
$1.G0 per bushel, while the barrel of
flour would be exporting for about $9.
The reader can see that this great ad
vance In the price of the barrel of
flour to the American farmer did not
increase the cost any to the Brazilian
and what Is true of the Brazilian is
also true of all the countries In South
America. Mexico, Cuba, China, Japan,
nearly all the islands cf the sea and
In fact more than three-fourths of the
people of the world would buy as much
of our Cour a3 they wanted at the
same price as they do now while the
price would be more than double to
the American farmer.
I proved conclusively in my last
week's article that the quantity of
money had practically nothing to do
with the decline 'In the export price
of the barrel of flour from $9.46 in
1873 to $4.10 in 1901. It Is claimed by
some If we could discover a large quan
tity of gold and could place Frazil
and other countries on. a gold standard
that would settle the money question.
It would settle the money question if
enough gold could be furnished the
Brazilians, the Chinamen, the Japs,
the Cubans, the Mexicans, the people
cf India and the people of many other
countries so that they could pay the
American farmer at our exporting
ports from $3 to $9 In gold for a barrel
of Cour just as easily as they can pay
now In the money they have. No hu
man being thinks for a minute that the
above proposition could be ever accom
plished. There Is only one 'possible
way and that is to place the commer
cial price of the ounce of silver to
$1.29, then all of the people above
mentioned could pay the $8 or $9 in
silver which would be the same as
paying that much In gold and this
could be done as easy as they now
pay about thaf much in the money
they have.
I stated in my article of last weeV
that there were three things that the
American farmers want to know.
First, just what caused the decline in
the export price of the barrel of flour
from $9.46 in 1873 to $4.10 In 1901.
Second, just how to prevent a fur
ther decline.
Third, how to restore prices.
I presume that no person who has
read the article I wrote in your last
week's paper as well as this one, will
question that I have shown just what
caused the decline In the export price
of the barrel of flour from $9.46 to
$4.10. It will be an easy and a'short
matter to explain the other two points
which the farmers want to know which
are "how to prevent a further decline
and how to restore prices." As it
was the decline In the commercial
price of the ounce of silver from $1.29
in 1S73 to about 58 cents in 1901 that
caused the fall In the export price of
the barrel of flour from $9.46 to $4.10
In order to prevent a further decline
In the export price of the barrel
of Cour as well as nearly
everything else that the American peo
ple export, the decline in the commer
cial or selling price of the ounce of
silver must be stopped. This would
certainly stop the further general de
cline In the export prices.
In answer to my third proposition,
how to restore prices, there" is or can
be practically only one way and that
is to restore the commercial or sell
ing price of the ounce of silver to $1.29.

As a complete' and final analysis of
the money question as applied to the
export prices of the American farm
er's products I. will add the following:
Thereader should notice carefully
the' folio wine facts. The Deonle of
Brazil and the people of all the other
countries I have mentioned would
amount to in round numbers ' about
three-fourths of all the people in the
world. Not" only the people of Brazil,
buti all the. people in the other coun
tries that have ' been ' named several
times in .this article who buy their
flour of the American farmers, buy, it
not, with their money as our money,
but they buy It with the commercial
value or selling price of the material
that is in their international money.
The reader should' especially note this
one point. The flour that they bought
of the farmers of our country during
1873 as well as that which they bought
during 1901, was bought with the com
mercial value of the material in their
money. (In speaking pf the year 1901
I refer to the fiscal year ending on
June 30, 190L.) The selling price in
the markets of the world . of the ma
terial in their money during 1873 was
a little more than its coinage or face
value or, in other words, a dollar of
their money that had a coinage value
of 100 cents would sell in the markets
of the world as a commodity for more
than 100 cents, while during 1901 that
same dollar being the international
money of about three-fourths of the
people of the world, was sold as a
commodity in the markets of the
world at an average price of about 45
cents. I have shown in several dif
ferent ways that the condition of the
Brazilian was such that he could not
pay any more than he did in 1873 for
his flour. That being the case, he had
to make the 45 cents buy just as much
flour in 1901 as the 100 cents did in
1873. The American farmer had to
and did sell as much flour and of all
other farm products to the Brazilian
and to those of three-fourths of the
world's people that wanted to buy our
flour for the 45 cents in 1901 as they
did for 100 cents in 1873. There has
been millions of columns and pages
written since 1873 (most of which has
been political rot) on and about the
facts, results and causes contained in
the last few lines. I have made it as
clear as the noon-day sun, in a cloud
less sky that the force that caused the
decline in the export price of the bar
rel of flour from $9.46 to $4.10 was
created by the decline in the commer
cial value or selling price of the ma
terial in the dollar used by three
fourths of the people of the world
from 100 cents in 1873 to 45 cents in
1901.
There is only one course to pursue,
and that is to raise the selling price
of the material in the dollar that
three-fourths of t?e people of the
world are using from 45 cents, where
it is at present, to 100 cents, where it
was in 1873. The American people
have it In their power and can , very
easily restore the purchasing power of
this dollar that I ha described so
that the 1,200,000,000 of people (this
amount being about three-fourths of
the people of the world) can pur
chase, our products and pay us in 100
cent dollars just as easily every way as
they are now paying us in 45-cent dol
lars. There is only just one way to
accomplish what I have set forth in
the first sentence above, and that is to
place the selling price of the ounce of
silver at $1.29. No political party in
this country can -live for any length of
time that does not do everything it
can to restore the dollar mentioned
to its original purchasing

Some High Kicking
Editor Independent: A charming
story has reached Lincoln from the
Institute for Feeble Minded at Beatrice.
It will be remembered that the notorious
Milt Metzgar is steward at that institu
tion. It does not matter about the
superintendent's name, because he is
only a figure head anyway.
It seems that the new republican ad
ministration filled the office of matron
with a specimen of feminity best de
scribed by the threadbare terms, "fair
fat, and forty." It does not matter much
about the fair and forty but there is not
a particle of doubt about the fat. One
day the cook at this institution had
occasion-to carry a tray laden with de
licious viands into the Superintendent's
private dining room for it must be con
fessed that the Superintendent feels
rather above eating at the same table
with his employees. The matron, fat
and fair, was promenading the corridor
at the time the cook passed through on
the way to the dining room. Suddenly
the cook was astounded to find the tray
lifted high above his head and its con
tents spilled all over the waxed corridor
floor. He was astonished, dumbfounded.
Just to show that even if she is short
and fat the matron was responsible for
the wreck she had performed a very
commendable feat of high kicking.
The Superintendent sat. growling in
his private dining room because of the
delay in bringing him his breakfast. He
made some investigation and learned
about the gymnastic performances of his
oo-laborer. He didn't care about the
high kicking, but he did hate to lose
that breakfast. So he "promptly, dis
charged the matron. ' i - .
But the matron knew a. thtng or two
herself about matters political and sha
wended "her way to Lincoln and made
such vehement protests to Governor
Savage that the upshot of the whole af
fair was that the Governor returned that
evening with her to Beatrice, and,-. after
reading the Superintendent the riot act,
reinstated the matron and left shortly
for Lincoln, supposing everything to be
lovel at Beatrice. . .,, -
It isn't however. Every day or two
something new arises in the way of
trouble. The only way Governor Savage
can get that institution on its feet again
is to remove every officer and employee
there and replace them with, others.

THE WILEY GRAFTER
The Plaubl Plea That Ha Makes While
en a Still Hunt for Totea out in
. 'the State
Reports from out in the state give
an interesting bit of news regarding
the straws at which . the republican
party is clutching In a mad endeavor
to elect its state ticket. Every
smooth, suave, melancholically elo
quent grafter in the party has been at
work for some time in engaging pop
ulists and democrats in quiet conver
sation regarding the state campaign.
"You knovf, Jones," one. of these
grafters will say to his fusion hearer,
"that this is an off-year in politics.
It really cuts but little figure either to
your side or ours which side elects the
supreme judge. Your fellows have a
majority of the court now, and if
Sedgwick is elected it won't change
that majority for you'll still have
Sullivan and Holcomb. And as for
the regents, that doesn't matter' much,
because the university ain't in politics
anyhow. But you know, Jones, that
the assassination of our beloved pres
ident has cast a gloom over the whole
country (here a few well directed snif
fles adds to the dramatic effect) and
we republicans have thought that Ne
braska ought to go republican this fall
out of respect for our martyred presi
dent. You're a broad-minded man,
Jones, and not a blind partisan, and
you're no anarchist, either; Why can't
you vote for our state ticket this time
just to show your loyalty to the gov
ernment? It's about time, Jones, that
we Americans vote together make it
unanimous, by gad, sir just to show
these anarchists that we stand by the
president."
And Jones ponders over the matter
a good deal. He can't see exactly why
he should become a republican, even
for one election, because a crazy an
archist murdered our president. Neith
er he nor any of his party associates
were in any way responsible for the
murder. And he doesnt quite underT
stand why h& should now indorse the
policy of McKinley on the money ques
tion, on the Philippine question, on
the constitution and the flag question,
on a dozen others, simply because Mc
Kinley Is not alive."
But Jones Is a loyal American citi
zen. He has a profound regard for
American institutions and traditions.
He is well aware that the shots fired
by the assassin were fired at McKin
ley, the president, and not at McKin
ley, the man. He knows that McKin
ley's martyrdom was the result of an
attack- on our government, by a man
who believes In no government, and
who believes that the killing of offi
cials' is a noble act. Now, Jones ab
hors anarchy and anarchists, and he
listens to the specious arguments of
the republican grafter with consider
able attention. He will study the mat
ter further and decide on election day.
As a specimen of republican dema
gogy this is quite in keeping with that
party's tactics. Even the sacred pre
cincts of the grave must be ruthlessly
invaded simply to gain a point in
state politics. $ Populists and demo
crats believe in certain principles and
policies; : republicans believe in cer
tain principles ana policies; ana ibwb
beliefs clash at many points. -It is nat
ural that they should do so; And it is

Anyone who has suffered from either
rheumatism or indigestion can appreci
ate the condition of, It frail. woman. whose
body was racked by the agonies caused
by a complication . of these diseases.
Such was 'the experience of Mrs. J.T.
Sloggy, of 107 East Jassamine street, St.
Paul, Minn.' Happily she found relief
by taking the advice of a friend and
now, moved by gratitudcTfor her delivery,
she tells thers how she was cured. To
a reporter she said: '
"During the winter of 1898 I suffered
very much with rheumatism, being con'
fined to my bed some of the time under
a physician's care and unable to do any
work. I was also troubled with indi
gestion. When spring came I was thin
and nervous, had a poor appetite and
was broken down, in health generally.
That summer I made a visit to Wiscon-
sin ana wmie , mere met an old meridJever before. These prices can hardly be

baiu duo litiu oeen a great suuerer irom
indigestion and . had been completely
cured by. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People. 1 knew her word could be
relied on so I got a box of the pills and
commenced taking them. I felt bene
fited in a few days but continued to take
them for about five months.
"That winter I had no return of the
rheumatism, my appetite improved and
I gained, in flesh and strength. My cure
was permanent and I have not taken
any of the pills since
"I have told many how the pills helped
me and I sincerely hope that others suf
fering in the same way may be induced
to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale
People."- ':, y ... '
This statement was sworn to by Mrs.
Sloggy before G. E Samyson, a notary
public, at St. Paul. Dr, Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People will not only cure
rheumatism and indigestion but are also
an unfailing specific for such diseases as
locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St.
Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous
headache, the after-effects of the grip,
palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow
complexions, and all forms of weakness.
