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
