Then silver was demone tized it was
at a premium over gold. It was de-
monstized by the preparation of a
fraud about which no man, except
John Sherman aud the clerks of the
finance committees and engr0ssiug
clerks of congress, know anything
Yet while such is the fact, how strange
it is that an effort to restore silver t.
the same position it occupied Mt
the time Of the perpetration OF
this fraud should meet such vil-
lent opposition. How strange it is
that such great calamiles are
