which they presented to him the dan
gers in their judgment of the continue
lion Of the coinage of the standard sill

The petition sets forth that there ar,
rumors that an effort Is being made t,
have the President elect pledge his Ad

the coinage OF silver, and states tina
any such action would be contrary I,

party demonetized silver, and tn,
Democratic party restored 1t, and tina
'wo thirds of the represen natives of tn,
Democratic party had always and at al
Dimes opposed all efforts to prevent tn,
coinage OF silver, and that, therefore
the Democratic representatives in Con
