The Monetary Conference.

PARIS, August 20 Governor Fcnton, in
his final speech at the Monetary Confer
ence, urged the importance Of an interfd-
tional agreement for the use OF silver at u
certain ratio with gold. He pointed out
that though an occasional read justmcnt of
ratio or temporary limitation OF mintage
might possibly be required, these details
could be easily settled. Although the
Uniscd States government was prepared
and able TO act alone, It felt that interna-
tional cooperation would facilitate the full
use OF silver.

claim the respect OF the upright, the hon
orable and intelligent In society. I'D
10. That the Free Schools the promoter
OF that intelligence which is to preserve us
free nation. The guarantees Of free
speech, free press, pure morals, unfettered
religioussentinents, equal rights and priv:
ileges to oil men should he guarded and
strengthened. Not cent Of the peoples
money should be applied to the support OF
any religious or sectarian school.
III. That we are in favor.of equal and
just taxation Of all proper subjects Of taxa
ton; and We denounce that system which
compels the indebted farmer and land
owner to pay taxes on his land, while ut
the same time makes the debt which he
owes pay like taxes, and We pledge our
efforts to remedy this evil. .Elts-
12. That the policy OF the Democratic
members Of Congress from this State In
underbidding other States, in order to Sc
cure as means of profit 10 the Peniten-
tiary OF this State the ielons convicted by
the Federal Courts OF the country, and
then letting out this convict labor 10 con-
tractors in our community, thus placing
such labor in direct competition with hon
est labor, and thereby preventing the hon
est man from attaining the fnir compensa-
ton to which his toll entities him, is a
blow struck at his means Of livelihood, is
prejudicial to the best interests OF the
workingmen OF the State, and ishcreby un.
qualiliedly condemned by this Convention.
IL. That inaslnuCh us It Is tho evident
purpose Of the Democratic party should ii
come into power to pay the hundred mill
ions ofsuspcrdedwar claims Of ofdisloyalmen
already presented to Congress, or awaiting
q favorable moment for presentation, 1t Is
therefore OF the utmost importance that
the Democratic party should be prevented
from obtaining control OF the government.
II. That we are in favoro Of tariff which
will project the labor and industry OF the
country, and that we regard the Wood
tariff bill introduced into Congress and
by the late Democratic House
OF ofRepresehtatives rs in direct opposition
to tho vital interests Of the people OF this
district.
10. Wedeclare that the antiquated and
County Courtsystem created by
the Democratic party Of West Virginia
should be abolished.
