THE MONEY QUESTION IT IS SOMETHING LIKE THE YARD AND THE YARDSTICK. fine KiiBdAinental Misconception That Pn* xle* the Minds of Many Men—Necessity for a StAndArd M cam tire of Value—I'nlt of VaIuc Here And 111 iiiiKlimil. Judging from the questions that are addressed to The Times, we should say that one fundamenal misconcep tion that puzzles many honest minds, to which any question of the nature of “ mone^” is a novelty is similar to that which would arise from confus ing the yardstick wjth the yard. What is u yard? A measure of Ienght containing thirty-six inches. What is an inch? One thirty-sixth of What is an inch? One thirty-sixth of a yard. We are back where we started and must try again. A yard is the ienght of a yardstick. It may be, if the yardstick is Just the length of a yard. What is a yard? A yard has been various things, as the length of Henry I.’s arm, or the ienght of a pendulum beating seconds of mean time in the latitude of Lon don: at present it is the distance, at 62 degress Fahrenheit, between two lines engraved upon plugs of gold In serted near the ends of a certain bar of gun-metal deposited in the Koyp.l Observatory at Greenwich, with copies deposited in varies other places, in cluding one In the custody of the de partment of state at Washington, which in turn supplies to the several states. If our yardsticks conform with this standard, they measure true yards; If not, somebody is cheated. It will be observed that this stand ard unit of measure is quite arbitrary. We cannot give a good reason why the yard should be Just of that Ienght, and not longer or shorter, except that It Is ho, that common consent has ac cepted this standard and we cannot depart from It now without'confusion. The French, and many other con tinental nations following them, have adopted, and similarly recorded, a dif ferent unit of length, the one-ten-mill ionth part of the earth's meridian quadrant, called a metre, with decimal divisions which is about 10 per cent, longer than a yard. The use of this measure is optional In this country, but it is commonly necessary to trans late it into the corresponding English measure. As each is exactly deter mined, however, and their ratio is Axed and invariable, this translation is not difficult, and either equally represents the necessity of a fixed standard of measure. The necessity for a standard meas ure of value is not less evident. We can make that standard anything we please, and in earlier stages of civiliza tion, and in the infancy of commerce, the standard varied in nearly every country, as it still varies in a few countries the least advanced, from the silver rupee of India to the brass “cash” of the Chinese. But by a pro cess of natural selection the common consent of the commercial world has gradually settled upon a given weight of gold as the least variable, the moat durable, compact and convenient. This lias not been the result of legislation but of the natural operation of the hu man mind. There has been much legislation directed toward the selec tion of some other standard or stand ards, but it has been always inef fective, and no legislation it now con ceivable that could reverse this near ly universal choice. It is as fixed as the metre or the yard. Where legislation comes in is simply in describing and defining the unit in which length or weight or value is ex pressed. Thus the unit of value in this country is 23.22 grains of fine gold, called one dollar, with its decimal divisions. In Great Britain it is 113.001 grains of line gold, called a pound, with divisions in shillings and pence. The pound is thus equivalent to >4.866 and the shilling to 24.33 cents. The common measure is the standard weight, the Troy pound of 5,760 grains, and this Is as carefully preservt-d In the government mints as the standard yard. The price of a commodity, such as a given weight of silver at any time, is accordingly expressed In Kngland In pence and In America in cents, hut this price is practically the same, any slight variations being due to the ex penses of commercial exchange. It represents the exact weight of gold that will purchase this amount of sil ver. So with the price of wheat or of nnytlitng else that is freely ext hanged betae»*ii two countries. The price may , i>e expressed In different terms, but It always refers to the same standard. We might. If we < hose, make our i dollar smaller, as *« could make our yard shorter, but Its value would still la* estimated by the standard, and It i would simply require more dollars to 1 make an equal value, as It would take mors yards to make an equal length, i In either case we should have mn fusion and intunveulenie without any ' gain. If w# made our standard some ; thing else than gold we should have the added diBbultv that the ratio with j the former standard would sot be • ted. tlhe the ratio between a »ard and a metre or between a tong Ion and a I short toa, but would require a fresh ! miiultiUott »tn> sift*** am fit* I Mm »l*h*tiUi* lh«t w ill § M jf« I fcH*t (ill ItoPiAf lit * it m r of vih't In t»n« *n \u \ tb*f* u |u»i lb* illRvlW-kC* tbs* I (f 1 t»A0|VtM MMM M lu JjMfcJi# j a bv Ufiiii ib* W«M|ib nl iwmihijt Mtt bfr* | Rtibi4l MuuM Iblbb *>f i^h tub II III t|hMii| nMltrtt U An tbbl A KdA uutM Ik* b*« ■ n# iltib »b»t* hi hbt mN l »««4 '< Mt*ii b tfef kllVAMr b **t (»M i H* h#»# »i i*mt * tofil HUMbr fur 0)0| till 10001 T * lifb **» ImMA |*n t f fiA-t $♦ I |ti « «9ii bill h» lb* rtfClfl UMII ‘try ctst* ty Ma rime (bias gels hath PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.
