PRICES RISING-WITHOUT SILVER.
New York Tribure.
Nothing could have happened to refute
more conclusively the claims of silver
fanatics than th estrong advance in
prices of other products, which has been
In progress for more than a month. That
farm products are cheap and everything
Clse al90, because silver is disused, and
the purchasing power of gold is thereby
enhanced, Is the very comer stone of
AH arguments for free coinage. That
claim cleared aiway, the western and
southern producers would have not the
faintest Interest in the outcry, of mine
owners for extraordinary favors, and the
silver question would then be left for
settlement in accordance with the mone
tary Interests of the nation as a -whole.
Wiheait has risen dram the lowest point
over 30 cents ait the highest; and 25 cents
even now an advance of nearly one-half.
Cotton has risen about 1 3-4 cents, or
over 30 per cent from the lowest point.
Bessemer pig-iron has risen about J2.60
per ton, or 25 per cent. All these ad
vances have occurred without any cor
responding movement in silver, which has
risen less 'than 6 per cent even in the nar
row and easily manipulated London mar
ket. But in reality the demand for silver
as mo.tey has not increased at all, ner
has there been any gain within the last
two mouths in the prospect for its re
habilitation by International agreement.
The non-concurrence, of price movements
does not in the least surprise those who
ksow that silver has long ceased to con
trol or materlajlly influence the world's
valuation of commod.tlea. But It is a
startling revelation to those who have
swallowed free silver theories and yet
retain enough self-command and intelli
gence to comprehend the meaning of
current events.
Wheat rises because it has become, or
men believe tlwalt it WW become, some
what scarcer with relation to .the demand.
It matters not for the moment whether
this impression s well founded or not;
It Is of no sort of consequence whether
the belief in serious injury to crops is
or is not Justified; the fact -to be noted
is that these belief a whether true or
false, determine the price of wheat rather
than any change whatever in the supply
of eHver, in the prospect for Its rehabili
tation, or in the purchasing power of
money genewUly. nous wiun couon.
There has been a belief thait both the
acreage and the yield per acre this year
would be co far reduced that the supply
of cotton VouW be not too large for the
world's demand, and R makes no sort of
differencs whether this generaU beMec had
good foundation or none at all. The
plain fact Is thiat the price of cotton
was controlled by this idea, and not in
the least by any change in the condition
or prospects of the silver market. Other
products in like manner have moved,
each according to the relative demand
and supply. Iron has grown dearer be
cause wages of coke workers have risen,
making fue) dearer, and waes of Iron
miners, making ore dearer, and waea
of furnace hands, making the production
more, costly. In addition there Is the
belief, whether well founded or not, that
farther advances to the cost of coke and
ore and lead will presentry- be found in
errtable, awl wl f.ve still higher prices
for manufactured Iron and for other pro
ducts of iron and steel.
The silver fanatics will soon wake to
the discovery, It is to be hoped, that this
product also is controlled by similar in
fluences. If s.lver becomes relatively
scarce, the production falling below the
world s actual demand, the price will rise
jueit as the price of wheat or of cotton
rises. Or if it comes to be generally be
lieved that the supply of BUver will fall
short of the world's demand, an advance
in price may be expected, and wJl result
from the same natural causes wh.ch con
trol the prices of other commodities. But
it will be difficult this year, In the light
of current events, to convince men of
any intelligence that ithe prices of com
modities are In any sense controlled by
the world's dtemand for elver, or the
world's use of silver as money.
WHEELING INTO LINE.
The prediction has often been made thai
before the next presidential campaign
opens the republican party would be
sol.d for Bound money from one end ot
the country to the other, outside the
silver mining camps; that it needed only
a few bold and Intelligent leaders in
the states where demagogues have led the
party astray to write ithe principles of
common business sense and honesty upon
the republican standard; that the sham
and fraud of free silver would sink away
from the light of free and frank discus
sion, and thait upon that Issue, squarely
Joined and boldly tried, the republicans
of Kansas, Nebraska, North and South
Dakota, Oregon and Washington could b
relied on to wheel those states in line
with the republican party on an honest
money platform. In fact an immense
change of public sentiment is already go
ing on in those states. It is slgnlllcent
that Congressman Johnson of North Da
kota, who is supposed to be a candidate
for Hansbrough's seat in the senate, has
openly repudiated the free silver folly.
There 1b no doubt that the intelligent
sentiment, the dominant sentiment ot the
republicans of thait state, is on the Bide
of the dcfllar that is as good as every
other dollar.
Kansas is onj of the Spates 'that is
usually regarded as Inextricably wedded
to free silver. This is because the Peo
ple's party, which for a time swept all
before lit, Is solid for free sliver, and It
Is towing the democratic party after it
in the same current. But the Topeka
Capital believes that the republican party
of Kansas is in harmony with the no
tional policy of the party and in favor of
the maintenance of the present parity ot
dollars on the present standard. The re
publican papers of the SUate are by a
very large majority for good money. Of
the 102 republican newspapers of Kan.
sas seventeen are for free coinage, while
eighty-five stand squarely upon the
money plank of the last national repub
lican pluitform. In addition several ot
the leading democratic papers are on the
same side. Eighty per cent of the weekly
republican papers of Kansas are against
free silver, and many of Ithem are active
ly flghltlng against it. Not only that, but
we are assured the tide has turned in
Kansas. The flgihlting force for sound
money Is winning adherents every week.
And the change that is going on in
Kansas illustrates a similar chancre of
public senltlment among the intelligent
classes of other states in the group we
have mentioned. The logic of monetary
fadts IB a.ded by the logic of events.
Free sliver is chiefly a. vague Impression
of dtsconltewt. It feeds on poverty and
hard times. It cannot stand prosperity,
With a good Harvest, with good prices for
the farmers' products this fall, the free
silver obsession well pass away like a
bad dream after a drunk on forty-rod
whisky. Exchange. .
SOME FREE ADVERTISING.
The department stores of Ch'cago have
received a great deal of free advertising
In connection with ithe Illinois state sen
ate commltltee appointed -to investigate
their methods. The heads of a number
of large stores of this sort have been
called -upon to testify before the commit
tee as to why they were able to under
sell smaller stores, and how they had
managed to secure so liairge a share of the
trade. Of course, these Sharp storekeepers
made the most of the opportunity and
the testimony was published In large
In the newspapers. Mr. Frank H. Cooper,
of Sieges, Cooper & Co., was arrestied for
refusing to answer eome pertinent ques
tions, and carried before the 'bar of .the
senate at Spr.ngfleid. The voluminous re
ports of his tribulations occupied consid
enable space 'in the newspapers, and, pos
ing as he d!id as a martyr to low prices,
the sympathy of the people was natur
ally aroused in his favor. It was prob
ably a very profitable martyrdom. Th
Investigation, instigated by peiity Store
keepers for the purpose of areait.ng legis
lation unfavorable to dipair-tment stores,
resulted In the best advertisement which
these BtoreS coutd have had. When- prices
are so low that they need to be Investi
gated by a senate committee, ithey are
about such prices as most people look for.
And then at the climax of the matter
The Fair Issued open defiance to those
who would regulate selling prices, by
selling for one whole day $t gold pieces
at J4.75 and silver dollars at 90 cents. The
reporters who came to see the crowds and
to write of the barrels of money being
sold telow cost, were told by the enter
prising proprietors who were smilingly
selling gold and silver coin at a discount
that suoh sales were not uncommon in
chat store. While mtoney Itself had not
before been sold et a loss, goods were
da.ly being sacrificed alt a much greater
loss. The reporters took -the statement
down verbatim, and the papers published
It as a news item with Bu.table sensa
tional head-lines.
It is not unlikely now that these in
vestigations will become the rage, but it
will be the big stores that will start
them hereafter and direct them against
inemseives. uirs.
