Z lolQ OF NlFSlIIld DIS the only CdlOl-
dates for President and vice-presi-
dent who are friends to the use Of
silver as money, and the free and
unlimited coinage of that metal; and
we heartily and unequivocally in
dorse Weaver and Field as the stan
dard bearers of the Silver party of
Nevada and pledge them our sup
port. The nominees of this conven-
are also hereby pledged to work and
vote for the standard bearers Of our
cause, and to use every honorable
means to defeat the enemies of silver
Harrison and Cleveland.
This convention repudiates the
sham pretense that Weaver will be
defeated and that votes for him will
be lost. Every great reform must
have a beginning Too much time
has already been lost in voting for
the agents Of the gold trust, which
action has paralyzed. the industries
of the country and ruined silver min
ing in Nevada. The Endorsement
already given by the silver States of
the advocates of gold i'll former el~
ections is used as an argument ~
show that the silver States them
selves are opposed to the free and
unlimited coinage Of silver, The
movement for silver is now advanc-
ing with resistlesS force under the
lead of our gallant standard bearer
James Il. Weaver. The people OF
Nevada will not stay the tide by vot-
ing for either Harris or Cleveland,
the representatives of gold monop-
oily, but will proclaim to their friends
throughout the country that Nevada
stands firm against the usurpation of
federal power in local electlors and
against the gold monopoly of Europe
and America.
