w' ; 8 } - 'WIIE CURRENCY. The ¥hree-Sixty-FiveePer « Cent Bond Folly. Our Financlers: Their Ignorance, Usurpations, and Frauds. DY LYSANDER SFOONER, OF MABSACUUSETTS. I ‘The great battle In Ollo for more money,— by which Is here meant the political canvass for ihe year 1875,—in which the whole country par- ticipated, is still worthy of notice, not only be- causc there ts doubtlcss & widespread determi- ‘pation to fight it uver again, but also because it affords a ludictous, but much necded, filustra- tion, a8 well ns an frrefutablo vroof, of the pro- vaflfog {anorance on tha subject of monev. That that violent, but ridiculous, contest may perve asa caution to the people arainst being drawn into the same, ot any simllar one, in fu- ture, is one purpose of tiis article. Iis other purposes arc to exXpose the uswepadlans and frauds by swhich the people are deprived of money, and to vinaleate, as far as its limits will permit, the right of the people, by the use of thelr own property anderedit, to supply them- selves with such money as they can, and as much of ftas they please, free of hll dictation or Interference from the Government, The question at fssuc fn Ohlo s 1875 was the 8.05 intercouvertihle bond scheme,—a schema of the practical operation of which the writers and speakers on nelther side scomed to have the Jcant real knowicdge whatever, It would have hiad nelther the good effects which fts friends cxpected, nor the bad effects which its encmles predicted. That 1s to say, it would nelther hiave proved n “currency equal to tho wants of trade,” as claimed by Its friends, nor would it have flooded the country with adeprectated cur- rency, as predicted by its opposers. As a avs- tem for furnishing & permanent currency, olther good or bad, 1t would Laye failen utterly dead, Worse than that, [nstead of furnisning ‘o per- manent currency in place of that we nuw have, 1t would have deprived us of tho vne we now have, without furnishing any substituts at all. That such would have been {ta ‘effect {8 evi- dent from theso conslderations, namely: 1t 1s a scttled principle that a paper currency dependa, furlts truc and natural market valu wholly upon the redemption that is provides for It. IE has, and it can have, no more truo or natural market value than the proporty withy which it 1a to be redecmed, A paper currency, thercfore, that has no other redemption than that of belng convertible into intorest- bearfug bonds, can be worlh no mora in the mx’:rkct “Ifl:l’ aro the Il}:und’: themselves, and, consequently, no more than e ottt forconmersion tnfo the. bonde, And It ls worth nothing for conversfon into bonds, unlcss thers ara Komo_one of mare porsans who wish ihus to convert it. In other words, it Is this demand for the bonds, ax investments, that atono gives the currency ooy value in the market, A convertible note of this kind, therefore, clren- lates as mouey only because soma one or morg crsons want it for converslon, Aud d circu- Jates onty undil it falls into the hands of vuch a per- gon. When it foils Into hifs handa, he converts 8, and thus takes it out of ciraulation. ‘The destiny, therefore, of all such convertible per, that ls in circulation as money, ta finally to E converted Into bonds, and thus faken out of cir- ewatlon, And therc is then an end of it so far as {ts belng currency s concerncd. We saw the operation of this principle so long as the reenbacks were con- vertihle into bonds. The conversion went on so rapldly that we should soon have had no green- backs at all in circulation had not the conver- slun of them Into bonds been nw{mw by law, And our greenbacks now remain in circulation auly becouss they are nol convertible into bonds, For the reasona now given, if our whols na- tional debt were to-day in circulation as curren- Ly, Aaving no other redemnption than thut of bebuyy sonvertibie Inlo 8.65 bunds, it would be worth for dfreulatfon no noro thau it would be worth for conversion: and, as & natural cousequence, it wuuld ropldly, though not instantly, bo cone verted, and” thus loken owl of circulation ; and v should then Mave eptirely lost ¢ a4 a currency. And, as " the ‘schcme proposes to prohibit all other currency, we shouid then be left with no currency at all, The 3.65 bond. schieme, therefore, fustead of belnz a scheme fur providing the country with o currency, Ia perfectly sulcldul, so far as fur- nishing a currcncy I8 concerned. ' It s simply l:lllm‘r?u (g; m:{llnlnlf L3 p:)‘:er nx.’xlmnuy (m:/ Cir- culatfon raicin such currency from clrewlation! 1t s lhaug\my run mad, . But the advocatea of the scheme will say that 1t provides that these bonds may be roconveried Into currency, Yes, It does indeed provide that they say, but not that they muat, bo thus re- converted. And it offers no iuducenients vhaleer Jor euch reconversion; beeause, i reconverted, the currency will then be worth no more in the markot than the bunds nro worthas Investments; cinen all that will give the currency any valusat ull {n the market wili tiren, as befure, be the simple fact that it (the currency) fs convertible baclt into the samo bonds from which it Lias just Leen reconyerted ‘The bonds nre to be holden by men who gre- ferred tho bouds to the curtency, when doth Aad the same value in ths market. Aud now the scheme contanplates that the couutry will go without suy currency at all, uutil these satoo bondnolders shall chauge thele minds, and prefer tho currency to the bomu, when (h haveatill the same value In the market! Who van tell when the bondholders wiil do thatl The bunds aro tholr estates, thelr investmenta, on which they sely for thelr dally bread. ‘Tues are the catates which they have preferred to al otliers, ns a ineans of lving, To presume thoy will raconvert themn Into currency s ji a3 absurd ua It would be to presume that s man 1ho has just bought & farm, and relies upon it for bis livivg, will scll it for nioney that will cuable hiu to do nothing else su good for Tilnisel! as to buy back the same faurm that he parta witl. L 11, But Gen. Butlor, who, I belleve, clalms to Tave been tho autbor of this scheine, says th:u"fla “m!m of .a xl\‘xn:ly of n;ancy," naud for money by a ot erest wl{l all lmnl:l uml: h:'{h‘." 7 : o ¢ joeans by this that, in times of *scarcit! of mouey,” i high rate of interces "—~that ll & liglor rate than the boods themselves bear— ;vml s‘r;:lun un:'ho?lcr ul“‘;l;niue bonds to recon- erf e11] 0 1¢ il Wm.; gal er notes, (s order (0 This 18 certalnly furnlshing *moro money!’ with & vengeance.” The real valuo of thé notes corresponds precisely to the value of a 8.65 In- torual fug boud, and Ueu Butler would ullow” the people to have no muncy st all, exce fu some rsro ewcre vncy, when tihe “searcty’” iy so great as to in- uce thum to give a Ligher rate of interest than tne money s really worth,—enougu bigher to duduce the bondholder to surrender his Inyest- ments, and becomo a money-lendor nstead. This Is equivalent to saylug that nobdy sball be permitted to borruw moaey, exvept i thoss cuergeucles when ho will submit to bo fecced for thu sake of getting it! 3 And to make 1t lmpossible for anybody to Lorrow mouey, excopt af this extortionats rate, bo would ¥prohibit, by the severest penaitics, every pereon, corpuration, or inatitution srom faau- ,,‘::,”M"nllq that might appear in the senblasce Andfih proposition comes from a man who Propuses to furish the peoplo with “more mouey,” aad thus save them frous the extor- Uuns of the present money-dealers) Howevycr wuch an extortion might oceasionall Telicye an Indiyidnal, who w3s so sorcly presse a8 o consent 1o b , it would du nothing towards supplylog the people at lage with maney; bueause the moucy thus {ssucil to an individual would not coutinue lu cireulation, Uaoleas it should constantly puss {rom band to haud at a price beyond ia true valus ; that is, st llfirllm Levond it value for conversfon.
