coinage OF silver was the only safe and
proper exit out Of the problem, II II
was not safe the fact could only DO
shown by what was, 10 degree, an OK
pertinent. But II was an experiment
that could bo made without peril, aa
there would be ample time 10 correct
any evil tendency that might be do
yeloped before any harm would happen,
And II was an experiment neceahtated
by the demands Of the times and by the
diaordered ayatem OF finance, into which
tho country had been thrown.
Mr., Allison Addressed the senate.
The house bill, he said, which was
now the pending bill (all other BILLS and
amendments having passed away was
substantially the bill proposed by the
finance committee when II made ita re-
port originally with the exception that
the house had added 10 II a provision for
r0deomlng IN bullion and q provision re-
lating 20 free coinage when silver should
como 10 par, These were the two vital
amendments made ~ the bill aa II was
originally reported from tho finance
committee. Az no had asaontod 10 the
original report he expected 10 vote for
that report substantially, ~ no believed
II was the wlaeat and, on the whole, the
beat solution OF the question, The bill
having been referred 20 the finance COM
mitteo for the second time, the commit

one striking out section 0 Of the bill (re-
latlng 10 free coinage after u certain
point and one inserting u provision that
the act ahall terminate NJ the expiration
OF ten years H0 would support the
amendment limiting the operation Of
the bill 10 ten years He regarded that
limitation as unnecessary and M imper-
iling the efficiency Of the bill, He did
not believe that the bill would last ten
years OF anything approaching ten years.
