THE NEW PARTY.
Any reader of the Oregonian can
see at a glacce that it is rapidly
going over to the democratic
party, at least to the Cleveland
wing of democracy. Its support
of the last administration, its op
position to the regular republican
organization last year, its position
during the recent session of the
legislature and its subsequent
fight on a republican tariff, all
characterize it as an exponent of
democracy rather than of the re
publican Darty.
It is also plain that the Oregon-
Tbe sheepmen of Morrow coun
ty are refusing to take the Weekly
Oregonian because the Examiner
is a good enough democratic week-
ly tor tnem. it is not masque
rading.
Congressman Ellis has intro
duced a bill providing for a Unit
ed States assay office at Baker
City. Senator McBride has also
introduced Ellis' bill for the In
dian war veterans in the senate.
McKinley's policy to keep pres
ent incumbents in office till their
terms expire is a good one. Frin
ciple should rise above partisan
ship. Give the boys the spoiles

And now. Mr. Chairman, havinff shown br
my colleague's own figures that the fall in
prices about wnicn ne ana otner iree snvenies
say so much is not the only one or even the
great one of this century; that it did not be
gin in 1873, and hence is not due to the cause
to which they ascribe it; and that "free sil
ver," having demonstrated in the past its in
competency to affect prices (even if that had
been shown to be desirable), cannot reasonably
be expected to affect them in the future these
things having been proved, Mr. Chairman, our
side can fairly rest our case and demand the
Judgment of all candid men.
What Caused the Two Great Falls In
Average Prices.
Takins the centurv as the period for inves
tigation, and reverting again to my chart
for the course of prices, let us try to discover
the reasons for those mighty changes in the
level of nrices.
Wo note lirHt of all that there have been in
this century two periods of very high prices
and two periods of gradual fall in prices. Can
any principle or law be discovered in accord
ance with which these changes in price levels
took place? If so, it is very pertinent to this
discussion.
Let us see if the two periods of high prices
have anything in common. The first of theso
periods extended from 1789 to 1814, with its
lii Lrlii Ht. nnlnt, at lftOQ. It is very important to
remember that these were the years of the
N apoleonio wars, which cost Europe so much
In blood and treasure, it is notewonny, aiso,
that the second neriod of very nigh prices cov
ers the years of great wars, the Crimean in the
early fifties, our own mighty conflict in the
early sixties, followed in the later sixties by
the war between Prussia and Austria and In
1870 by the Franco-Prussian war.
Now war is a great destroyer of property,
while at the same time it takes from the pro
ductive industries vast numbers of their best
workmen. It is a time of abnormal demand
coincident with abnormally restricted supply,
hence a period marked by great wars is always
a period of abnormally high prices.
What, on the other hand, is the natural and
legitimate effect on prices produced by a long
period of peace?
Kvery person within the sound of my voice
has as one of his proper ambitions the acquire
ment of a competency for his old age. Now,
Mr. Chairman, what is the rational basis of
such a hope? In its ultimate analysis it is this:
That each month and each year the person en
tertaining such a hope shall produce more
than he consumes. This is the basis of increase
in wealth, personal and national.
Now price depends chiefly on two things: 1,
the relation between demand and supply, and.
2, cost of production. It therefore follows that
in a long period of peace, when production
naturally exceeds consumption and when the
wit of man is free to exercise its Ingenuity in
devising new and better methods of produc
tion, prices naturally fall. Thus it has been
through all tire aces, and thus will It ever be.
Following the Napoleonic wars at the begin
nine of the centurv. and following the Franco-
Prussian war of 1870, came long periods of
peace, accompanied by the usual fall in aver
age prices.
If peace conditions are normal, three Inci
dental results should appear, and all of thum
have appeared:
1. There should be improvement In the
standard of living. This implies
2. That a given amount of labor should bring
larger returns in the comforts of life, and
8. The demand for more and bettor things to
eat should show itself in sustained prices for
those better foods whose production cannot be
increased indefinitely.
What Soetbeer's Summary Shows.
Pushing this investigation a little further,
let us find out what articles have been most
affected by the fail in prices.
The price tables of Dr. Adolph Soetbecr, the
great German statistician, are justly regarded
as high authority. Let us see what they show

rant the statement so often made, with them
alleged authority, that "there has been a
general fall in prices," if by that expression is
meant that all articles or groups of articles
have fallen largely and in a measure equally.
Prices Mot Governed by Volume of Money,
It is accepted as axiomatic by many that the
volume of money in a country governs pi lies
there, nnd, at first glance, this seems reason
able. Hut even a little study of the subject
shows that such a view ts untenable.
In lHOU. when we had a period of high prices.
our volume of money in olrculation was I'-tl,-OUU.UOU.
As fcur population was then 5,1J8,S8
we hud onlv 4.M9 hit ennita. In 1847. when
prices were much lower, we had money in cir
culation amounting to IIU.MI, or more than
twice as much proportionally as in 18UU.
In l!i5, when we had inflated war prices,
the volume of money in circulation amounted
to J-U67 ir capita, while In when aver-
ige prices were much tower, ine money in cir
culation was -'4. per capita.
The total volume of money In circulation in
Frunco today amounts to 1.(6.77, while that of
her neightsir, Hwitzrlnnd, is only tU.UT per
capita. Does any one believe that the prices
in France are four times as high as in Hwlt
serlandf Taking gold money as the basis
of comparison, France has 122.10 per capita.
while Greece has only 191 cents per capita.
Does any one believe that prices in France an
a hundred times as high as in Oreocef As a
matter of fact, they are almost identical.
Tonke, In his monumental work on the "His
tory of Prices," truthfully sums the matter up
i follows:
'Then is not. as far aa I have been able to
discover, any single commodity tn the whole
ramie of articles embraced tn the moat eltu

not admit of Iwlng distinctly accounted fur by

stances do frequently operate with such force
as to reduce prices in the faoe of an expand
ing currency anil to advance pnoes wnen tne
currency Is diminishing. In point of fact, the
expansion is frequently rather an effect than
a cause or enhanced prices.
