The Oregon City Press has the
true conception of the causes of
the legislative hold-up. It Bays:
"There was only one way to de
feat the re-election of Senator
Mitchell, there was only one way
to prevent the passage of reform
measures abolishing the commis
sions aud other useless barnacle
on the state, and that was to pre
vent organization. The personal
enemies of the senator and the
men profiting by the useless com
missions have gained a victory
which will be set aside the first
opportunity the people are given
to express their feelings."
The Press is right when it inti
mates that scores will be evened
up at the next election. A legisla
ture that has devoted its time sole
ly to a senatorial contest will stand
in a sorry plight when the people
again have the opportunity of

Perhaps the sound money speech in greatest
demand in all parts of the country, and the de
mand for which is most constantly growing, is
that of Judge George N. Aldredge of Dallas,
Tex., delivered Oct. 16, 1895, at the convention
of the American Bankers' association at At
lanta, Oa. We are certain that all of our read
ers will relish the wit and humor which upset
the dignity of the bankers. They will also find
it very instructive reading. We reprint it in
full below :
The proposition that this government should
coin silver for the world, in unlimited amount,
at double its market value, is so repugnant to
the common sense of mankind that it ought to
be unnecessary to discuss it, and would be but
for the fact that a portion of our people have
been misled by appeals to their prejudice and
by the specious reasoning of sophists. If our
government were asked to declare that two
quarts equaled a gallon or to revise the multi
plication table and enact that 10 times 10
equaled 2(10, all men would see the folly, bnt
when asked to believe that 110 worth of silver.
by being touched by the government stamp,
instantly becomes worth $20, many people
honestly believe this miracle may be accom
plished, and many others affect to believe it
for practical purposes.
In all ages of the world there have been de
lusions in reference to money, and In spite of
uniform disastrous results many are ever
ready to llnten to the teachings of any charla
tan who claims that he has discovered a short
er route to wealth. They rsfuse to apply to
money that hard common sense which they
exercise in dealing with the everyday affairs
of life. The ignorant have always bad super
stition about silver. Among the negroes of the
south nothing would kill a witch but a silver
bullet.
That our ancestors 100 years ago fixed a unit
of value in gold or silver and fixed a ratio be
tween them is Immaterial to us. Their exam
ple in so doing 1b not more binding on us than
their methods of business, their means of
transportation, or the implements with which
they sowed and reaped. It would be a sad
commentary upon our intelligence if we had
learned nothing in 100 years. We do know
that in fixing a ratio they attributed no maglo
to the government stamp, but sought diligent
ly to ascertain the market value of the two
metals in the leading nations of the world and
conformed, as they thought, strictly to this
market ratio. By pursuing the method adopt
ed by them we would now fix the ratio at
about 83 to 1. The consistent man Is not the
one who stands in one place always, regardless
of the changing conditions around him, but it
is he who, with intelligence and oiroumspeo-
tion, adupts himself to the changed condition
of affairs.
Gold Versus Silver Standard Countries.
For nearly 20 years every enlightened nation
tn the world has been on a gold standard basis.
They are all representative governments, and
their laws are made by their people and for
their people. The government which first es
tablished the gold standard la more obedient
to the will of its people than ours is. When an
important administration measure is defeated
by the representatives ef the English people.

the government Is immediately placed in the
hands of the opposition. The gold standard
nations ore those that have reclaimed the
world from barbarism and have given it aU its
learning and invention, where schools and
churches abound, where the dignity of man is
maintained and lalmr properly rewarded, and
they control the commerce of the world
These nations, after testing gold and stiver
for hundreds of years, voluntarily adopted the
gold standard. No nation today has the silver
standard from choice. It is only because they
are weak and helpless to remedy the evil that
any of them remain on a silver basis. Bat to
day the United States, the foremost nation in
all the earth In solvency and resouroea, in in'
tulllgence and energy, la seriously invited to
abandon the standard of civilization and com'
merce and to consort with half civilised, half
clad people, who are weak and Ignorant, who
have little or no commerce, where bull fights
abound and schools do not, where human labor
is In sharp competition with the meek and
lowly Jackass, whore a breechclout is preferred
to a full suit and whore the hulk of the people
know no more about a standard of value than
a mule about the nebular hypothesis. Surely
we wonld do well to take a look at the oonv
pany before we sit down to the feast.
Free Coinage Arguments.
The Invitation is that this country, aftr
having adjusted Ita enormous business for It)
years to a gold standard, shall suddenly read
Just all business and all values to what Is
termed a double standard of gold and silver.
The arguments advanoed In behalf of such a
change are:
First. A double standard resting upon gold
and silver would give a mora correct measure
of value and one less liable to auotuatton than
a single gold standard.
Seoond. Otild has sppreclatod in Value and
all pnwrty measured by It has declined to
value.
Third. The supply ot gold is Inadequate to
make It a safe standard, and the scarcity of It
will tend tn the dirmlon of prlcea.
Fourth. The free, unlimited coinage of all
ver at the ratio ot IS to I will create unlimited
demand for stiver and restore It to par
Fifth. Free and unlimited coinage of silver
at 10 to 1 wlu lurreaae the urines of property.
Mythical "Double Standard."
With reference to the first proposition: A
standard of value la sums etaet measure which
enters Into and becomes a part of every con'
traot, and to which all obligations are refer
able. If our government could, by legal enaet-
tnoiit, fli the value of gold and silver la the
markets ot the world and eould keep them ad'
)uted to a Hied ratio, a double standard
would be procurable. Nut It cannot lit or
aialntata value. The buyers ut the world, the
Bisrchanta, do that. When Abraham purrhaeod
his lot In Ephmn't cenietory, he weighed out
to F.ihron sliver "current money with the
mervhant." And the merchants of the world
have been saying what shall be "current
money from thai day to this.
Governments are aapowerlres tn suspend the
law of va:ue a they are to suspend the law of
gravitation. Kurh bring the oasa, I can eon
eelve of two standards, one of gold and the
other of stiver, and contracts might be matte
referable to elth r standard, but the Indeter
minate double standard, reeling on two net-
ala not linked tf'tr by any binding obit'
gallon, but bulb anting under go as yon pi
rulee, la to nte allully litcomprehenalble.
We cannot bind them together as we do two
metals la the pendulum of a dork or la the
Bialnaprtng of a watch. No people ever did
Bualiifws under the Imaginary double staiutanL
and every attempt to enforce II has reeultad la
alternating from one standard to the other.
fcngland tried II for (TO years, and It was aa
attar failure. France changed her ratio IIS
times la 11 year trying to walk the double
standard tight rope, fta tried II and went first
to a silver baata, then to a gld baata, then to
a patwr heale and then havk to a gld baala.

based by clipping, but still legal tender. A coin
Is Just as bad wnen debased by overvaluation
in coinage as when clipped or counterfeited.
In the one case the creditor is deceived, and
in the o'her be is forced. It Is simply the
difference between theft and robbery. The
law of money has never failed. We know what
will be its operation just as we know that the
deadliest poison will kill because it always has
killed.
We Now nave 16 to 1 Bimetallism.
The gold standard advocates believe in gold
at a standard with the largest possible safe
use of silver among the people. The 18 to 1
dreamers believe in the so called double stand
ard, and we are driven by this law to the use
of silver alooe. All gold standard coun
tries use large amounts of silver and no
silver standard country uses any gold what
ever. As the practical question is the use
of the metals, it follows that we are the
bimetalllst and the 16 to 1 people are the
monometallism Hence the battle that is to
be fought to a finish next year is whether we
will remain under a gold standard, with actual
bimetallism in use among the people gold
and silver circulating freely without discrim
ination against either or shall we have a so
called double standard at the mints and no
erhere else, with sliver monometallism in ac
tual use? The battle is between substance and
ahadow, between those who want bimetallism
in fact and those who want it in name only.
We are the friends of silver money, who would
bring to its aid the power of the government
to keep it good, and they are its enemies,
who, by unlimited coinage, would take from
it the guarantee of parity by the government,
and thereby degrade it to its market value.
Our government has been and is now coin
ing silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. It is enabled
to do this, because under the law it can re
strict the amount ooined, and, being vested
with this control, it undertakes to make every
dollar good money. The moment the govern
ment loses control of the coinage, oonfldonce
in its ability to protect the money Issued is
gone, and a silver dollar then rests on its mer
it and is worth SO cents. To illustrate: A
merchant could very well guarantee the ex
penses of his clerk if he were allowed to con
trol the expenses, but if the clerk demanded
free and unlimited expenses then the mer
chant would have to "stand from under" and
let the expenses take care of themselves.
We hear a great deal of indignant declama
tion because the government does not pay its
"coin" obligations in silver. To maintain the
parity between gold and silver it is essential
that the government in receiving its dues and
paying ita debt must ignore the inferiority of
silver, just as a mother pretends not to see the
limp of her lame child. This gives the option
of metals to the person dealing with the gov
ernmcnt, whether as debtor or creditor. If the
government should discriminate against silver
by refusing to receive it for dues, or by insist
ing on paying it instead of gold, that moment
the parity would be gene and the silver in
every man's pocket would would be at a dis
count. Its coinage being under the control of
the government, the government makes it
good at its counter, and this makes it good at
every counter in the world.
If there is anything in the double standard
stability idea we ought to work for it for all
it is worth. If two metals will fix value better
than one, then three metals will beat two, and
four beat three, and by having eight or ten
metals in the standard we can anchor it so
that it will not crawl an inch in 1,000 years.
The second proposition is that gold has ap
preciated and thereby depressed prices. The
same cause operating upon a number of ar
ticles will produce the same effect In all those
not affected by a contravening cause. When
we contemplate prices, we find that since the
gold Btundard was adopted, Feb. 12, 1878, some
articles have declined in value, some have
remained stationary, while some risen in
price, and no contravening causes will ao
count for the failure of gold to depress all
alike. We find that no two articles have de
clined at the same time or in the same de
gree, nor has any one article remained uni
formly depressed. This demonstrates that, as
to those articles that have declined, no one
controlling cause can be assigned as having
produced these results.
The stock argument of the 16 to 1 people is
that wheat and cotton have declined, and they
seem to gloat over the fact. 1 knew an old
negro who, when asked how be was getting
along, always replied, "Poorly, thank God!"
and they are thankful when the country is
poorly on wheat, and ootton. Hince 1873 the
vast fertile prairies of the northwest have
been turned intVwheatflelda. so that the nro-
ductlon of whea'tm the United btatos has been
doubled since lain. The same thing has been
going on in Kussia and Bouth America. The
wonderful improvements In machinery for
harvesting wheat and the extension ot rail
roads for transporting it to market gave an
Immense impetus to the production of it. A
farmer can make more money raising it at 60
cents per bushel today than he could at 11 per
bushel a) years ago. The result hue been that
the overproduction ot wheat has reduced its
price, and the gold standard had nothing to do
with the reduction. Its price is regulated by
supply and demand.
Chinch Bugs, Caterpillars and Bollworma.
Last May a little bug settled down on the
wheatfielda ot the northwest, and in one or
two weeks eat up one-half of the 16 to 1 argu
ment on prices and sent the prices back into
the neighborhood of those of 1H78. The old hay
seeds, who knew the habits of the chlnoh bug
and the kind of a multiplication table he used
in regulating the increase in his family, took
the trains for Chicago, oommenoed buying
wheat and broke all the "smart Alecks" in
the city. They may have talked gold standard
depression at home, but they put their money
on the chinch bug in the city and won. The cat
erpillar and bollworm can do the same thing for
ootton. I only know the ohlnch bug by reputa
tion, but I am personally acquainted with
these worms. They are com posed of appetite
and akin. They do not oars a tinker's blessing
for anybody's standard, and when they invade
the ootton fields of the south tbey send tho
prloe oi cotton up In every mart of the world,
gold standard or no gold standard. They have
been doing business with us this summer and
have moved the price of ootton up 60 per oont.
This bug and tneee worms haven t many
friends, but aa sluggers In an argument with
a 16 to 1 crank they are entitled to the belt.
Cotton brought II a pound In Mew York dur
ing the war, and 80 to M cents a pound the
first year after the war on account of the four
years ootton famine from 1M1 to 1W6, and
was several years getting down to Its normal
price. The price declined when we made too
much of It. The largest ootton crop mail with
Slavs labor was 4,4. 770 bales, and I remember
It was confidently predicted that no such crop
would ever be made with free labor. The crop
of 1H7S was leas than (.0OO.OUO bales, and we
gradually Increased It to a little leas than la-
UUO..UU0 balee In 1HM. India, Kgypt and brmill
are also raising larger crops ot cotton. The
Immense crop ot ItM was thrown upon a
market Illy prepared to receive It, For three
years there had been less cotton goods con
sumed than usual, owing to the worldwide
panto and depression of business following the
baring failure, and these two conditions meet
ing overproduction and anderconsunipttuo
brought ootton down to a very low prtoa.
Home of the Populists tall us there oannot be
overproduction until every man, woman and
child In the world hna a rotund stomach and a
full suit of okithes. This Is based upon the
eommunlatto Idea that It Is the duty of gov
ernment to take care of every loafer who la
