aud was opposed by the bulk OF the oper,'

Sir J. +. Gorst explained that the pro-

into harmony with other nations on TIM

that tho signing Of the conference proto-

action on the subject.
MIR. Morley challenged the government
TO say whether they opposed Mr. Buxton's
amendment or not whereupon Home
Secretary Matthews intlmated that the
government would not accept the amend

70 be satisfactory to the advocatcs "
legislation for that purpose. II Would bo
more satisfactory, however, II tho good
side of the Question could be fairly pre-
seuted: Tba silver men charge that Il wa.
dishonest to dcmonetize siiveei dsd deprive
the debtor Of the right to pay in either
gold or silver, according To contract.
They deny that there ID gold enough for

"rRcy Assert that the value Of money 10
governed " Tue tt~ 81 supply and de-
mand, and that nothing has iItslnssr
value, and that gold is no exception. They
assert that whatever substitutes for
money and credit deyicss may he invantsd
that some proportion must sa's! Betwssh
tho aggregate Of such substitutes and de-
vices and the volume of standard money,
and that tho gold coin In tho commercial
world Ia insufficient to sustain the fabric
of Credit whicn iidw sxists.
"They deny that the Bnslnsss OF the totu,
mcfGial World is OF Ii gold tIasis, but has
expanded Oh credit sustained By the et-
roneous belief that there was gold coin
enough for immediate redemption. So
long as such erroneous belief existed,
confidence was maintained and credit and
business expanded. Recent events havo
disclosed the fact that tho gold reserves
OF the t0mmcfcal world are inadequate,
confidence ID shaken. new enterprises
cannot be Undertaken; established business
is being cuftalled
"The genius of each business man is
employed, not in production, but in
schemes to save himself from bankruptcy.
The remedy proposed by the silver men is
the restoration OF silver to the place II
occupied as money before II was excluded
fror'' Tho nints cf the civilized world.
The proof that there Is gold enough. 8r
that there is better remedy for the lack
Of gold than the demonetization Of silver
exists, would furnish some reason against
the restoration Of silver. Prove that there
is gold enough and the discussion ends"
