ALVIN SAURDER’S Speech 13 the Tnited tates Senate xr: Tl queuuan is without doubt the most important subjeot that will interest Congrees the present teasion. I do Dot know that Isuail bo able to add materially to what has slready been sald on this subject of remonetizing silver and restoring it to its former position as a legal tender. Never- theless I shall beg the ludulgence of the Benate while I present a few reasons why 1 shail oppose the amendments pi by the differ- ent Senators and vote for ihe bill g0 far s its provisious In regard to re monetization are concerned just as 1t same from the House. It 1 for one inoment could be made to belleve that by supporting the bil!

And even nOWw, 8ir, thereis an idea slent in many paris of Europe, that our silver pro- duction is latgely in excess of the real facts, It any one has say doubts about the demonetization zct of 1873 hav. g bad muoh todo with the de. preciation of siiver in the markets of Europe, let him turn to the table and figures sbowing the prices of silver bullion in London in prior yearsaud (here see when tbe de- cline took_place. I is my opwmion | cede the fact Lie priziary cause of tue decline. From the year 1850 up to and includiug gilver bultion was Lev: glx pence per ouuce in tha London market, and the averago price for those twen'y-two yecurs was a large fraction over sixty-one peace, which made our elver doilar d.ring the whole of those twealy-two years a large premium ov gold—the aver- ase premium for whole of that time being over twh per cent. But, srr, beginning with the year 18 tive year in which ite act _stopplug the further coinage of the legal tend- er dollar was passed, silver declined m (he London markei to the aver- age price that year of s little over fifty-nine pence, and continued graduslly to decline, until in 1876 it sold as low as fifiy-threc pence, aud is worth now, I believe, about fifty- five pence. And now 1 ask if the United Btates government can at: ford any longer (o assizt iu bearing e market of her owa productions 8ir, I think not. The amendmeats proposed by several of the Benators to the effect that the sliver doilar ghall be made a legai tonder for small smounts only I will mogt certsinly opposs with all the powers with whioh I s possessed. I want no more de- preciated currency. 1u my opicion, #ir, the greatest mist that was msde In all the fiuaucic! aots of g the paper oney reas =ad puting 1t on_an equ: aci, w 1t prob cial on, none other 80 far a9 I am informed making it higher than 16} to1; eo that I cannot see the ne- cessity ol the amendments of Sena~ tora to this bill giving a still greater relative vaiue of gold by increas: ing the wuember of grains in the silver dollar, Agaiu, tois iucreased difference would widen the distance between the ratioof the values of the two_metals and that recognized by the Latin union, and thus make it more difficult for us eyer to agree with the union upon 80 international standard. 1t is my opinion, sir, if Congress were now to reinsiate silver to its former legal tender position, that 1o inconvenience whatever to trade wouid be experienced in conse- quence of the quautity that would be put into circulation- Neither gold nor silver would be uged to any great extent as a circulating med. jum, and especiaily in the cittes. Paper money, 8o muci more con. venlent to handle, would be the Klod of currency usedin making all exchanges, and no mero of either silver or gold wouid bo used than for the purposes of convenience in making emall change. Most of the coln would go into tha vaults of the treasury and of tauks for the re demption of the paper meney when demanded, and thus exchanges wou'd go on wilhout iucouvenleuce or loss to anybody. I have no confidence in the re. marks 150 often hear made, that 10 per cent. cr 8 per cent. crany other Iarge per cetage would be lost by depositors 1 saviugs banks, or by anybody eise, If silver be remoue- tized. Why enould it ba so, Mr Presidext? To-day the greenback paper dolisr 18 worth ninety-elght cents in gold, while a sllver dollar is said iv pe worth about ninsty two i cents. Why this difference? Is not ilver, that has an intrnsic and markeiable value of ninety two cenis out belng coined, worth a8 much 15 the rag aud lamp blsck on which the gresuback isstamped ? It is this, Me. President: Tue g ernmeut has endorsed the paper dollar and bas said it ehall be taken for all kinds of debts, “except duties on imports and interest on the pub~ iic debt,” while this same govern- ment has said by the act of Febru- ary, 1873, that eilver shall not be ta- ken s a logal tender for more than $5 in sny one psyment! This,srr, is the reason why siiver to-day is lower In the markets than greeu- backs. My friend from Michigan [ Chris- tianoy] admitted in his speech the other duy ttat mlver would rise m the market up to, as he thought, 85 cents. Why limit it to 95 cents, when, if removetized, it would answer all the purposes of gold? Does he suppose that the business men of the country who are import= iog goods or who have dents of any other character to pay would pay gold when they could purchase stl- ver, even at 99 cents to the dollar, which would count to them one hundred cen's? To-suppose such an actlon is, I think, to very much uuderyalue the bu!lum tact and sa- gacity of the people who have oc- casion to use large sums in the transaotions of their business. Sup- pose, Mr. Premdent, that i 1873, in- stead of demonetizing silver, Con- gress bed demonetized goid, snd toat to day the silyer dollar, as it was given us by the fathers, was the only money that would pay import duties and interest on the putlic debt, will 2ny one pretend to say that silver would not be worth more than gold 2 The fact ls, the depre- cation of silver 1s mainly due to the act of Congress in driving it out of existence 88 a iegal tender. Then what is wanting to restora it to ils former poution? It is simyly noth- ing more nor less than to put it where it was Zound on the st day of January, 1873. Let the government remonetize silver to.day, Indorse it ana make it receivable for ail debts the same as gold, aud to-morrow the silver dollar will bs worth more than greenbacke, and will be worth within a small n’noll n of a cent of gold, and =ll tas fright that has been created with the depositors & | Tickets. ssvings-banks ead with others will bave pasved away as & dream ; and in doing this there can bs no viola- tion of a legal obhgation or tie abandonment of & morel principle. en In London, the recognize centre for reculating the values of bullion, the best business men anl taking 8 more hopeful and a more GROCERS AND COMMISSION MERCHANTS — BANKING HGU: L.
