During the decade of 1880 to 1890 we
had the gold standard, but it was favor­
ably affected by the partial remonetiza­
tion of silver in 1878, which continued
to add $2,000,000 of silver per month
through the entire period. And to the
wealth of thia decade was added the
value of the “state, national and Indian
lands.” They had not been valued be­
fore.
With these favorable items in its fa­
vor, the gold standard men cannot say
their system did not have a fair trial
The increase of wealth during this aus­
picious trial of the gold standard from
1880 to 1890 was 49 per cent It was
77 per cent worse than the bimetallic de­
cade from 1850 to 1860, and 19 per cent
worse than the war period. Verily John
G. Carlisle was right in 1878, when he
said: “Mankind will be fortunate in­
deed if the annual production of gold
and silver coin shall keep pace with the
annual increase of population, commerce
and industry. According to my view of
the subject, the conspiracy which seems
to have been formed here and in Europe
to destroy by legislation and otherwise
from threo-seventh3 to one-half of the
metallic money of the world is the most
gigantic crime of this or any other age.
Tho consummation of such a scheme
would ultimately entail more misery
upon the human race than all the wars,
famines aud pestilence that ever occur­
red in the history of the world. The ab­
solute and instantaneous destruction of
half the entire movable property of the
world, including houses, ships, railroads
and other appliances for carrying on
commerce, while it would bo felt more
sensibly at the moment, would not pro­
duce anything like the prolonged dis­
tress and disorganization of society that
must inevitably result from tho perma­
nent annihilation of one-half of the me­
tallic money of tho world. ”
Let us note a few incidental items.
Silver was demonetized in 1873. With
the advent of the gold standard came
the American tramp, a destitute and
miserable parasite on society not heard
of before in this country. And the trou­
bles between capital and labor began to
attract attention. Strikes and lockouts
became more prevalent as time passed
on. And these evils which hopeful peo­
ple thought would bo temporary have
become chronit.
We are now far along in the decade
from 1890 to 1900 on a purely gold
basis. Money panics and the fear of
them are as common as tho rising and
tho setting of the sun. Labor is restive
and poorly employed. Tramps swarm
in city and country like locusts in Egypt
Prices are still falling except in a few
favored centers, and seem to have no
bottom except a receding one. Troops
have often been needed to keep labor
quiet while men’s stomachs wero shrink­
ing to the size of their insufficient ra­
tions, and women and children were
crying for bread and dying for the lack
of it Business is dead, and the New
York clearing house reports show smaller
figures in the nineties than in 1869,
though our population has doubled.
These are the fruits of the gold standard
in this country. They are precisely the
same "apples of Sodom” as are borne in
England by tho same upas tree. We
have adopted tlieir financial system,
and are already duplicating their
squalor. It is the newest, least tried and
least satisfactory, as far as tried, of all
known systems of finance.
Yet H. B. B. of Boston says, “The
gold standard is the indispensable basis
of our financial stability.” And of
course he knows, because

Charles W. Whitney, one of the men in
blue who was injured in the Chicago
Haymarket riot. His chest was torn
away by the explosion of a bomb, and
as he lay in the hospital bed he saw,
with the aid of a hand mirror, his own
throbbing heart. What is still more

May 4, 1886, was a bloody night in
Chicago history. One hundred and sev­
enty stalwart men marched from the
Desplaines Street station. They had been
corralled there for several days antici­
pating a crisis, and at 10:30 o’clook the
order to “fall in line” was given. The
country thrilled with tho horror that
followed. The efforts to disperse the
mob and the throwing of a bomb that
burst between Lieutenants Stanton and
Bowler’s companies left over 60 officers
lying in a heap on Haymarket square.
One man died within an hour, and two
others were hopelessly crippled by hav­
ing their legs blown off. Other men
were cruelly maimed, 14 of whom are
now dead.
But of all the men Whitney stood the
smallest possible chance of life. His
breast was horribly mutilated, and bits
of exploded bomb were imbedded peril­
ously near the vital organs. He was
taken to the hospital, and after the neces­
sary probing the wound was sewed up.
Just before taking the stitches Dr. J.
B. Murphy inquired:
* ‘My brave boy, do you want to see
what no man ever saw before?’ ’
“Yes. What is it?” asked the officer
feebly.
“Your own heart. ”
He handed his patient a mirror, and
Whitney saw the greatest miracle ever
given to human eyes. He now affirms
that the heart is not a movable organ,
for it neither leaps up into the throat
nor desoends into the boots. In fact, it
does not indulge in any of the acrobatic
feats generally ascribed to it by imagi­
native writers. But he frankly acknowl­
edges that he is incapable of expressing
his sensation as he watched the oscilla­
tion of his heart.
Within a month he was able to return
homo and was supposed to be on the
road to recovery. Later he suffered a re­
lapse, and, after weeks of unparalleled
suffering, Dr. Murphy decided to resort
to the most extreme operation known
to scientific surgery. In the history oi
surgical procedure in this country it was
the third time it has ever been under­
taken, the former cases having proved
fatal. A careful examination indicated
that a piece of the bomb casing pene­
trated the breastbone, passing about
midway between the second and third
ribs, and was located about one-eighth
of an inch from the pericardium. Like
a magnet coquetting with a piece of
metal, every throb of the heart brought
the piece of shell nearer until the pierc­
ing of the organ was inevitable.

of acquiring them. In reply Professor
Parsons holds that fully one-half of the
ten billions of capital they represent is
water and should not be paid for. For
the acquirement of the remainder he
suggests the following methods:
“First.—The nation might assume
the bonds at 3 per cent per annum and
pay upon stock the average dividends it
has received during the last ten years,
gradually tapering off to zero at the end
of 20 or 30 years. If any of the bond­
holders refused to submit to the trans­
fer, money could be borrowed at 3 per
cent to pay them off, or, better still, cur­
rency could be issued by the govern­
ment for the purpose.
“Second.—The government, through
trusty agents, might watch tho stock
market and buy, from time to time,
tho stocks of valuable roads at bottom
prices, until a sufficient amount had
been obtained to control the chief road­
ways of the nation, after which the
bonds and remaining stock could be
treated as above. I say the chief roads,
for there is no necessity for the govern­
ment to buy useless roads that ought
not to have been built; the best roads,
in sufficient number to control the rail­
way traffic of the country, are what the
nation should buy.
“Third.—New currency could be is­
sued to buy the roads, or the majority of
the stock, or to settle the dividends, in­
terest aud gradually the face of the debt
The currency has been contracting in ref­
erence to business ever since the war, and
a gradual expansion of it now would not
only constitute an easy solution of the
railroad problem, but a very substantial
benefit in itself to all classes of the peo­
ple, except those who use the shrinkage
of values as a means of acquiring their
neighbors’ wealth without a fair equiv­
alent, and that class has reaped profit
enough in the last 20 years to be will­
ing, if they were reasonable, that the
game should go the other way a little
while now—turn about is fair play.
“Fourth.—If the government would
establish postal savings banks, where the
people could deposit their earnings in
absolute safety, and where loans on good
security could be obtained at low inter­
est—2 per cent or perhaps even 1 per
cent after a little—then the nation could
use the funds in its possession for invest­
ment, and if further funds were needed
it could borrow of itself at the establish­
ed interest. This fourth plan seems to
me best of all the ways I can imagine,
if we can only get tho government sav­
ings banks without too much delay. If
the first plan of purchase were adopted,
the government would have to pay 8 per
cent on $5,100,000,000 of bonds, or
$150,000,000 a year In interest and $80,-
000,000 or so In dividends, amounting
altogether to $280,000,000, and cutting
