He takes that back to Russia. exchanges it for Russian money. and gets $120. pays his hundred dollars of taxes and has $20 with which to buy tea and coffee. The American farmer sells his hundred bushels of wheat for $60 and only has $60 when he gets home He applies it on his taxes and finds himself $40 in debt. This advantage goes to all the Asiatic and silverstandard countries as against the American farmer. The result is that the Asiatic has money with which to reproduce wheat and it does him some good. he has money with which to reproduce cotton and it does him some good. but the American farmer is left in debt every year. and still we say this must go on and debt must be piled up and there must be no relief. Nonaction is the order of the day. We passed through the Senate a bill to stop the sale of bonds. which would have required the Executive to obey the law and pay out silver. of which there is an abundance.
