J. Mr.. CHAIRMAN: l hear that YOU have
been. told that he who would address
you is Il tamaticaI advocate of the re-
sumption OF specie payment SAich is
not the fact. do indeed, believe that
we might have resumed specie payment
several years ago, when We had xl25,-
WU,Ot . IA ihc 1rcasury. mainly gold, and
an incamc exceeding our current eXpcn-
diures b, $40, 10000 per annuIn. We
might have resumed with less difficulty
and less danger Of failure than the banks
encountered when they resumed in 1888
and al Other lmes, but the opportunity
was allowed 10 pass because resumption
was deemed undesirable, and since then
nave uriiied further and further away
Iirom the point nj which resumption was
,ilraciicablc. Our National, income is
diminished 80 it j. our surplus in the
Treasury; while the premium on gold
has been advanced. In short. we are
not on the road to specie payment, but
are travelling the other way. Hence |
say, use the money which lies dead in
,;hc Treasury, tempting lis custodians to
