Capital. Conger of Iowa made the
most rambling argument against the
silver bill I ever listened to. Take
this statement for instance: He said
that one of the greatest hardships that
wonId result from the passage of the
silver bill would fall upon the western
farmers whose farms were mortgaged,
and for this reason: Most of the mort
cages called for payment in gold, and
if the Senate Free Coinage bill was
passed it would be impossible to get
gold; but, said he, NOW mark how
beautifully he reasons) if you pass the
bullion bill the certificates will be as
good as gold, trying to make the peo-
pie believe that the certificate would
be better than the silver itself upon
which it was issued. Mr.. Funston
rather staggered him by asking him
to explain how his certificates issued
on deposit of silver was going to helI
the farmer or make him any better
off. This was poser for Mr.. Congel
which he was not looking for and
which he could not answer.
