Bi-mc tallio League, Lincoln, Neb; My Dear Sir: I duly appreciate, and warmly thank tho bimetallic lcaguo lor their very courteous invita tion, so kindly conveyed to mo by yourself, "to speak in favor of bimet allism" in Lincoln Saturday evening, I very much regret that busincsri engagements render impossible my participation in tho discussion ap pointed for the date you indicate, but if later on the proper "timo and chance" shall happen to jio, it will be a pleasure to meet with tho league, Tho exact truth is my private affairs, almost wholly neglected during my last six years of scrvico in tho senate, have pressed upon nic so heavily that T have had no heart, nor mind, nor timo sinoo my release for anything ex cept tho work of bringing order out of the chaos into which they had drifted whils I was engrossed in look ing after the businsss of others and permitting my own to bo laid over to the more sonvenifint season which by the kindness and consideration of my constituents was arranged for no a few months since. I have not, therefore, watched the courso of tho bimctallio league, but think I havo a fairly correct idea of tho purposo and aim, if not of tho full scopo of its endeavor. As I understand it, the league is in no senso a political organization. In tho list of its memberships I find the names of honored citizens of tho state who have long been, and still aro prominently connected with tho dif ferent political organizations. As I am informed, they havo simply corao together n's republicans, democrats and independents, for a concerted movement along strictly non-partisan lines, to develop and strengthen tho sentiment found in all partios at this time favorablo to bi-mctallism. Very likely I may not agrco with some of you as to tho causes and in strumentalities to which tho demona tization of silver is properly charge able. Wo .may also differ as to tbo best method to bo employed for the permanent rouauuiuuon oi snvor as a money of commerce, a coin eurrency for local and individual exchanges, a fiduciary money with such relation to gold as will best qualify it always und evcrywhoro to do its full sbaro to maintain tho colossal business fabric of tho world whoso foundations rest upon tho farthest shoro of tho remot est sc'a; whoso superstructure covers all creative naturo, and embraces all tho sphorcs of human activity. But we will all agreo that silver- recognized as a truo measurement of values from tho timo when eommorco ceased to bo only anothor namo for piracy shall not now with our con sent bo driven out Ly a now sort of piraoy in tho quiso of financial, oom mereial, and other trusts and combi nations formed by tho strong to rob tho weak of their opportunities, and deprivo them of tho required tools for tlo betterment of their condition. It cantoot bo denied that an undue enhancement of the vajuo of gold in its relation to all 'commodities and things for which it has been a .meas urement of value has boen in progress for some timo. And now a concerted effort on tho part of a powerful ele ment in this country, under tho inspi ration of the mono-motalist monoy ohangcrs of Europe, is icinc niado , still further to apprcciato its vnluo by the practical elimination of silver from our curreuoy, Neb., Friday, August Tho coin monoy of tho world is less than $3,000,000,000, mado up of about equal parts of gold nnd silver; a sum which, if every dollar of tho sil ver could bo given tho samo purchas ing power as gold, would bo barely adequate for tho world's uses. But Bilvor was long since driven out as money of commerce. It was practi cally expelled from all fiduciary uses by most of tho great commercial na tions oi Europe long atjo; and it is now proposed by tho unqualified re peal of tho Sherman aot to withdraw all statutory recognition of it as a coin money by our own government. This leaves thorcforc, less than 14,000,000, 000 of gold currency as a coin money basis to maintain tho business and tho credits of the whole world, tho vol ume of which is so vast as to be al most boyond tho ability of tho human mind to measure or to comprehend. But theso are not all' tho require ments of our day and generation. Gpld in tho treasuries of the great na tions of Europo is as noocssary a war equipment for tho preservation of tho balanio of powor among them as standing armies along their frontiers, or as cannon shot and shell, and other munitions in their forts and arsenals. And so tho representatives of those (governments everywhere havo helped to swell tho swarming multitude which for years has been chasing up and down tho earth in pursuit of gold all alike realizing that wbon the pressure from tho increased Remand always incident to a general loss of confidenco comes, as has recently been seen, the supply is suddenly found to bo wholly inadequate to meet it, and universal bankruptcy and dis tress aro Buro to follow. And thus we are confronted by tho anomoly, that whilo thcro has boen a most phenomenal incrcaso in tho re quirements for coin money, the mono mctallist money owners of Europo havo been using their great power and influence to drivo out and destroy one half tho world's storo of such monoy, ana at tno samo -time place insur mountable barriers against its restor ation. They havo insisted that gold pro duction was incroiScd boyond the de mand tor its uso in tne world s our- rcney, and yet tho absorption, accord ing to calculations based on Boethecr's figures, endorsod by Boissevant, in Germany, tho Scandinavian kingdom, tho United States and Italy, alone, from 1870 to 18G5 exceeded tho pro duction for that period by 1200,000, 000, "about ono-sixtcenth of tbo total amount of gold money which toward the end of that period had bcon dis tributed in Europe, tho United States and Australia." During tbo same poriod it is also shown that thore was uot only no incrcaso in tho supply of gold from produotion in other coun tries, but almost certainly a loss com pared therewith. Sinoo 1885 thcro has boen an enor mously increased absorption particu larly in Europoan countries in excess of produotion, much of which latterly has bcon at tho cxponso of the United States; and yet every country in the world is constantly struggling to keep what it has, and acqtiiro more, as if its life depended on tho Buocess of its efforts. Everybody knows that there is not enough to "go round," and everybody except tho single standard money and oredit owners admits that it ought if possiblo to bo' largoly sup plemented by something elso. But many who believe this doubt if any thing equally as pood .can be found, whilo the mono-mctallist is determ ined that nothing shall be found, and is dilligcntly employing every means of which ho is possessed to prevent it, the Price of The Chief. 4, 1893. He grossly exaggerates tho amount of silver production. In London he represents that our bonds will bo paid in silver. Perhaps ho buys a few and returns them to this country to bo sold, with tho statement that English capitalists like himself do not liko to hold them, or any other American so eurit'os, ant'eipating their payment in silver, which ho and his kind have helped to depreoiate by misrepresen tations. Thus ho helps to depress the market by hit personal examplo in London and Now York. Ho docs moro. His sale, and tbo reasons for it, are generally quoted on tho Now York Stook Exchange and afterwards in tho eommeroial newspapors and used as an argument to convinoo tho pcoplo of this country that bi-metat. lism must not bo thought of that tho Sherman act must bo wiped out from top to bottom, whioh would leave not a word or syllablo of law in our statute books in recognition of silver. If by his own unaided aot he could restore the parity in aolual markotvaluo be tween the gold and silver dollar, ht would not do it. It is to his interest to preyont an increase in tho money supply, and at the same time stimulate the demand, thus appreciating its val ue, and increasing his revenuo tbore from correspondingly, Thcro are thousands of mono motallists in Eu rope who are working on theso lines, and there aro thousands of men in this country who believe in bi-mctal- ism, but oppose all legislation looking in that direction because of the dread- j ...... i- - -..;.! t-.si iiu uionnicrB iu uur Bvuunuea promised I by theso foreign niono-metalists if wo do not hasten to take tho back traok on silver Per se, they are in, favor of bi-metalism, per tho sontiment of tho London money changers thoy are against it. Mr. Clevclamd was eleotcd president on a platform pledging him to tariff reform on substantially freo trado lines. Tho samo platform in effect ueoiarca in ravor or state Dank paper currency issues. These were both radical departures, and naturally pro duced somo apprehension and dis quiet in business circles, as the prom ise of an entire chango of polioy in volving great business interests al ways does, But this disquiet thus originating was all charged to. tho Sherman act. A financial eyolone struck Australia, whoso business has always boen conduoted squarely and sxolusively under the gold standard. All of its great banks failed, and uni versal bankruptcy followed, entailing enormous losses upon capitalists of England and Scotland as well as Aus tralia, and in somo degreo at feast dis turbing tho monoy markets of this country as well as Europe. This dis quito was used to swell tho aooount against tho Sherman aot.
