NEW YORK, August H.-Gen. 5. f
Cary in his letter of acceptance def mes
i position as follows:
81. That am in favor of restoring the
silver dollar to its old position as a unit
OF value.
| ~. That all National Bank notes
should be withdrawn from circulation.
10. That paper money should consist
exclusively OF notes Issued by Govern
ment, with such legislation as would
cause them to be fully equal in value to
the specie dollar under all circum-
stances and throughout all time.
| 81. That interconVertible bonds Of the
Government, bearing an equitable rate
Of interest, should be issued, so that the
money in circulation may be determined,
not by an arbitrary law OF Congress, nor
by Board of National Bankers, but by
the laws OF trade and commerce, or in
other words, by the demands Of busi-
ness.
| "The gold basis of currency is sham
and a cheat. The true basis is the ma
tional credit, represented by interest
bearing bonds.
''Strfpped of all DISCUSSES, the ques-
tion at point is whether National Banks
shall furnish all currency, OF whether it
shall be supplied by the Government.
Both the old parties are distinctly COM
mitted TO the policy OF an unlimited is
sue oil National Bank notes, and the
Withdrawal and cancellation Of all Gov
ernment currency. The widest intia-
| tion OF National Bank notes is provided
for in the Resumption Act, which both
parties are in AYor of, differing only as
to the time when the work shall be
completed. l shall avail myself Of an
early opportunity to print an address
to the people Of the UBited States show
Ing the causes which have brought husi-
ness to the verge Of bankruptcy and the
working classes to starvation; causes
which, II left to operate, must result in
| fipaloial embarrassment and ruin TO ip-
dividusls, 70 corporations, 70 nluniei-
palities, to the States and TIE Nation ;
showing, also, that the policy OF the In-
dependent party is the only one that
can bring salvation. Even ii we do not
attain complete success, we shall rally
u force of earnest, true men In each Of
the States to whichever party succeeds
in the election, and prevent its accom-
plishing the purpose to which both are
now pledged.O
