AS per call in THE TRIBUNE, quite
number of citizens met in tho town
hall last Saturday evening to discuss
the silver question.
George Reed was elected president
and J. b. Wright, secretary temporary.
The following resolutions were adopt
I'd after considerable discussion:
Whereas, We believe that the de-
pressed state of many of our industries,
the unprOsperOuS and impoverished
condition Of largo majority of our
peopleS and the existing deplOrable
feeling OF uncertainty, suspicion, un-
rest, evil foreboding and detection are
due to something wrong and mischiev-
GUS in our monetary system and conse-
sequent legislation and,
Whereas, We hold and believe that
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
upon reasonable, just and equitable
conditions would terminate these evils
and is greatly to be desired;
Therefore, We, the undersigned,
hereby form ourselves into an organ
ization to be known as the Caldwell
Free Silver Club" for the attainment
OF this object and for the purpose of
discovering and exposing said wrong
ana OF discussion in order to ascertain
what would be reasonable, Just and
equitable in the premises: and further.
We solemnly pledge ourselves not to
support any candidate for president or
any other high Office, who holds views
inimical to silver as money or any other
metal as such or to the unlimited coin
age thereof under just, reasonable and
equitable conditions.
The meeting then adjourned, subject
to the call of the secretary.
