Does the amount of money in existence have anything to do with tixiug the price of commodities? ? Spai tanhurg Herald. What do you mean by "mon ey?" So long as there is enough of something representing a tixed value to do business with we do not believe the amount of it in existence makes any direct difference. When trade is good the demand for commodities natural ly increasesand with the increased demand comes au increase in prices. Mr Whitney to the contrary, we do not believe the increased gold supply to be the cause of the present and increasing pro* polity of the business world _i-- 1--1 i " iicij ujiiii wild iisio a l tilled States promise to pay knoir an boon as Colo id Bryan and his fifty cants dollars scheme were knocked out tlmt he could get gold for it. So long as thert is gold enough in the world to make these promises good, it will tie in the treasury to meet them on pre aentation. That confidence boomed enterprises and started the wheels turning, and one thing moved another. If there had heeu a 15,000,000 hale cotton crop and the supply of gold had heen twice what it is, cotton would have sold at cents. If there had been h 4,000,000 hale crop and tho supply of gold half what it is, cotton would have sold at 10 cents. If there was no money in existence prices of commodities would he fixed by their relative supplies proportionate to the demand for them. Fix the value of your money basis and keep it steady, and the law of supply and demand will regulate the prices of commodities beautifully. ?
