ments of the Senate with hope and con-
fdence OF expectation, however, that
this bill will never become law Of the
land.
Mr.. Garfield spoke in opposition TO the
bill.
Mr.. Stephens closed the debate, having
three minutes of his hour left, and said:
| prefer the Senate amendments in some
respects to the original bill. l did not
like the free coinage feature in the origi-
nal bill, and the amendment in that re-
spect | approve. The other amendments
made by the Senate l do not like, but
not single one of them ia Of such q
character that would forfeit the bill on
account of it. The great objection
which had in view. and which / think
the majority of the House had in view, Is
accomplished by this bill. By it the
double standard of value is re-estsblished
IN this country; by 1t the dollar of our
fathers is restored; by it silver is sgsin
money. That was the great object
which l have aimed at from
the first. The object was not TO
make ninety cents dollar, but to make
4l24 grains of silver equivalent to one
hundred cents, which was the dollar OF
our fathers. If a majority of the House
hereafter thinks 1t wise to modify the
Senate amen tmeuts, it can easily be
done. The bill can be supplemented in
the way which may be thought right. l
wish to save what we have got and not
to hazard that great principle established
in the bill. l shall vote for all Senate
amendments lest we hazard the great and
important principle established in the
bill. l now ask Tor the previous ques-
tion.
Mr.. Hewitt OF New York, moved TO
lay the bill and amendments on The
table. The motion was rejected, yeas,
