been sold by .1379. In that year, finding 'that the price of silver was becoming demoralized, so that his remaining was.depre- clating, he stopped sales" by.a decree Issued in May, 1879. points were frankly stated by his delegation to the international monetary conference of when- Germany likewise offered to suspend sales for'a time in order that the price. might not be further depressed. With these assurances before the monetary and with the decree of 1879 still, in-; force, Bismarck opportunity of dumping some German silver on the proceeded to do so.

In 1885 the Egyptian government decided to change-its coinage and Invited bids for contracts to coin its silver piasters. The: German mint secured the contract to.make the coin and Incidentally furnished $3,139,000 of sil- bullion to Egypt, The matter was kept very quiet, or escaped general notice. Reference to it will be found; however, in the London Economist of December 4, 1SSG," which saw in it a proof of Bismarck's of faith in all his faults, Bismarck.is a sturdy patriot. To help the German' distiller he was willing to see trichinns In American pig, and to protect the German' farmer he smelled bugs on every American potato. Germany has to-day $107,000,000 of silver whose value is declining.

And so pretends that will crease by' the price of isilyer and make a silver dollar worth 'truly as much as a gold one. But in the west and in farming, communities Mr. Bryan'waxes eloquent on the need of cheaper dollar to increase the price of farm products and enable the farmer 'to pay $100 of debt with $51 in silver. Leading silver advocates at the west have repudiated Mr.

Bryan's idea for eastern hearers only that free coinage, will increase, the price of silver to $1.29. They say flatly that such dollars would be as bad as gold. -What they want'is a dollar worth only 51 cents. clollar floes'- Mr. Bryan renlly He cannot li-ave both.
