Hon. James 4. Garfield, OF Ohio delivered Il
speech before the Honest Money League in Chi

leop.e demand it: second, because we are abe
10 maintain Ii. He reviewed Our recent 1inan-
cai history. and said Il deprecated and t'uctu-
ating currency has been the chief cause OF our
recent disasters. The recovery from such dis
aSt6rS could come in only one way-by ecolo-
my. reduction OF credits ana a return TO the
OASIS Cf real money. The revival has begun. 4
favorable balance Of trade has made resumption
comparatively easy, and having come il will
stay. 1he coin reserve in the treasury is amDly
Suffcient. However. all danger is not yet passed
ana resumption can be defeated in either of two
ways: First. by great and unexpected calalni-
~. such as a war or a general failure of our
clors, which would tu,n the balance of trade
against us; second, by hostile legislation in Con-
SlcSS. he probability OF the former occur
renee is too remote 10 merit consideration and
the vigilance and intelligence Of our people
must avert the latter danger Mr.. Garfield djd
not believe that resumption would be arain a.

real danger lay in indfScreet assaults which NAV

which resumption would break down rigorous

revenue sufficient to meet current eXppaSaS
and for the sinking fund VIII be our safeguards
IN this direction. The most dangerous indirect
assault upon resumption is the attemnt to abolish
