DEBATE ON FINANCE IN COMMITTEE
The huge Committee ON Resolutions attracts more
interest than the fight over the Govenorshp. r. W.
Hughes of Schuylkill is Chairman. sub-commit-
tee was appointed this evening, composed OF iiughes
of Schuylkill, Allen Of Crawford, Playford Oh ray
ette Tierney of Cambria Painter of Westmoreiahd'
and Hutchinson OF Erie. The subcommittee re-
ported this evening to the full Committee plat
form with financial plank almost identlcai Win
that adopted by the Ohio Democrats. The hard
money men attacked it vigorously, and debate en-
sued which lasted until late hour.
The plank is as bold an Endorsement Of rag money
az it would be possible to make. 1t declares that
the contraction of the circulating medium Of the
country already made by the Republican party, and
the further contraction proposed, have proven dis
astrous to business interests and produced general
bankruptcy; aud that the Convention demands that
it be promptly changed and the amount OF
circulating medium shall be regulated Dy
the requirements Of business; that the
national currency shall be retired and full ega-ten-
der greenbacks issued in place of it that system
of banks Of discount and deposit be established by
the States that the Government cease TO discredt
its own paper and receive it for all dues, TO as great
an extent as possible, without impairing Its obhga
tons to pay gold.
The discussion in the full Committee has shown 1t
to be nearly evenly divided. the rag-money men
having a small and noisy majority The resolutions
have just been recommtted to the subcommittee
increased by the addition of Geo. NJ. Dallas of Phila-
az to make them little less dstastcful to the
friends of an honest currency.
