Silver question debate in Aberdeen post marks bimetallism issue
A long, persuasive article by Chandler is printed in full, arguing that the falling price of silver strengthens the case for bimetallism and silver remonetization. It discusses gold and silver values, price indices since 1877, and the broader economic impact of demonetization. The piece cites Walker and Barker data and warns of continued price declines if silver remains demonetized.
