gress, resolution TO favor the free coin.
age OF SILVER at its present standard OF

Resolved, by the Democracy OF the
Tenth congressional district In eonven-
ton assembled, that while heartily in.
dorsing the doctrine Of tariff for roye-
nue. as enumerated in the platform
adopted by the national Demo
cratic convention at Chicago IN
1884, still, IN view OF the

we believe that II would be unwise, Inn
polite, inexpedient ana unjust tor con

bear only a prohbiiory reduction with
other protective Industries Of equal mag,

Ing In view the pledges Of the party TO
reduce the tariff upon imports TO a
revenue basis.

whatever land they may pe from violence
and outrage tnat may be perpetrated on
them, and TO resent every insult 10 our
