THE NIMBLE SIXPENCE.
The East Oregonian keeps reiterating
and emphasizing its advice to get oat of
debt, and etay out. There never was
better advice given, and never any less
palatable; yet an examination into the
' subject of interest, and a study of the
silent workings of a nimble penny . will
convince any one that no business In
the world will beat the ifane where in
terest has a fair show at it. Money in
Oregon generally commands about ten
per cent interest, and while it is unlaw
ful to compound it, yet this is done in
reality where the interest is paid yearly,
because then the money lender, having
the interest money, re-lends it.
- To show the difference between the
Steady accumulations of honest labor
and the deadly work .of interest, we pre
sent a small example. If, for instance,
a man bad gone to work on new year's
day of the year 1 and worked nntil new
year's day A. D. 2001 and had saved
every day $1, he would have at that
date to his credit (730,000. Suppose at
the same time the man had deposited 1
cent at 10 per cent interest, or at 7 per
cent and compounded it, it wonld have
doubled every te.n years. Suppose that
he only drew bis interest at the end of
ten years and then had loaned it, or in
Other words compounded ty at the end
ef each ten years. At the end of the
first ten years he would have bad 2
cents, the second 4 cents, the third 8,
the fourth 16. the fifth 32, the sixth 64,
the seventh (1.28, the eighlb.42 56, the
ninth (5.12, and the tenth 10.24. In
other words, the cent has increased 1,024
times in one hundred years. If the cent
will increase that number of times in a
hundred years, $10.24 will also increase
that number of times, so that at the end
of 200 years we would have 1.024 times
$10.24, or $10,485.76, as the sum earned
by 1 cent in 200 years. Now,' if that
sum can be earned by a cent in 200
years, the amount itself would earn in
200 years more, a sum equal to the
square of itself, or to simplify the calcu
lation and calling it $10,486, we find
that at the end of 400 years the sum
earned by 1 cent would be $109 956,196.
At the end of 800 years this sum would
be increased to an amount equal to the
square of itself, or $12,090,365,038,790,
616. This amount, if in gold, would
weigh 6.000 billions of tons, which again
squared would show at the end of 1,600
years 36,000,000 billions of tons of solid
gold. As these figures are beyond the
power of the mind to conceive, it is un
necessary to add the additional increase
ef 400 years more, but which would he
the last amount multiplied by 109,956,-
196, which would make a weight greater
than that of the globe. In the mean
while the man saving a dollar a day
would have in gold about one ton and a
half.
That is the difference between interest
and labor, and who is there can hope to
ran up against it? ;, .
BLAINE ON BIUETALISM.
Mr. James G. Blaine, who was the
greatest American statesman of bis time,
in a speech to congress, said :
"On the mrich vexed and long-mooted
question of a bimetallic or a mono
metallic standard, my own views are
sufficiently indicated in the remarks 1
have made. I believe in the struggle
now going on in this t-ountry and other
countries for a single gold standard
would, if possible, produce widespread
disaster in and throughout the com
mercial world.. The destruction of silver
as money and establishing gold as the
sole unit of value must ' have a ruinous
effect in all forms of property except
those investments which yield a fixed
return in money. These would be enor
mously enhanced in value aid would
gain a disproportionate and unfair ad
vantage over every other ppecies of
property. If, as the meet relianle sta
tifiic affirm, theie are nearly $7,000,000,-
000 of coin or bullion in the world, not
very umqually divided between gold
and pilver, it is impossible to strike out
of existence as money without results
which will prove distressing to millions
and utterly disastrous to tens of thous
ands. r
I believe gold and silver coin to be the
money of the constitution ; indeed, the
money of the people anterior to the con
stitution, which the great organic law
recognised as quite independent of its
own existence. : No power was conferred
on congress to" declare that either metal
should be money. Congress has there
fore, in my jndgmdnt, no power , to de
monetize either, any more than to de
monetize both. If, therefore, silver has
been demonetized, I am in favor of re-
monetizing it. If its coinage has been
prohibited, I'am in favor of having; it re
sumed. If it has been restricted, I am
in favor of having it enlarged."
Both Bradstreet and Dunn's reports
of business for last week show decided
improvement in all branches of business
throughout the United States, and the
feeling of confidence is rapidly being re
stored. The price of all farm products
is increasing, and many new industries
are being established in all parts of
Uncle Sam's domain, which will cause
money to circulate more freely. Not
withstanding the croakinga of prophets
to the contrary, 1895 gives promise of a
most successful year as regards business.
DrPIERCE'S
Golden Medical
DISCOVERY
Cures Nlaety-vlght per cent, of all
cases of Consumption, la all Its
Earlier Stages. .
Although by many believed to be incura
ble, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption is a curable
disease. Not every case, but a large per
centage of cases, and we believe, fully 98
percent, are curea Dy ur. ierce-s uoiaen
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleediags from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration (includ
ing tubercular matter), great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by " Golden Med
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? . You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced Dy the oest
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of ' Golden Medical Discovery, "
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
latai maiaay, an otner medicines wun
which they are acquainted. - Nasty cod-
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had Deen tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypbphos
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 16b
pages which will be mailed to you, on re
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.
