: 1t not intended to declare to the mel
i of New York and Massachusetts
that to be bi-metallism which call
} even for the limited use of silver
: with gold, as money? In one sense
j. it is, but the scientific term, bi
metallism, means the free and unre
stricted use of both metals as money
And yet no man in the East, no mar
in New York or Massachusetts who
differs with US upon this proposition
will admit that the use of the term
bl-metalliSm in either of these plat
forms means the free and unre-
stricted use of silver as money.
Now, what is the history of the two
candidates who are represented by
the leading parties upon this sub
ject? We all know the bold and un-
compromising position that has
been taken by Mr.. Cleveland, po-
sition entirely in harmony with his
character, which is courageous in
the highest degree. We all know
| the conservative position taken by
Mr.. Harrison; first, the recommenda-
ton of the purchase of bullion and
the issuing of silver certificates; sec
/ ond, a reluctant acquieScence in the
| compromise bill, which purchased
| the bullion and then turned it into
money. Then his measures for
AN INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE,
Which we will all be satisfied with
provided it accompliShes the pur-
pose for which it was intended; but
the action of which we are not pre-
pared to wait for. We find that when
free coinage bill was up i'll the last
Congress, the entire power of the Adj
mlnlstration was used to defeat it.
We find that the chairman of the
Committee on Coinage in the House,
gentleman from IOwa-Mr. Conger,
| believe, is his name-who stood up
against the wishes of his conStitu-
ency for the bullion redemption act, |
and was rewarded, when his con
Stltuency failed to return him to I
office, by the mission to Brazil; and |
| can refer to numerous instances |
where Republicans, faithless to their |
trust, but faithful to the Administra-
ton, were rewarded with substantial |
office. Applause.
Now, | ask, what are we, the mem
bers of the silver producing States,

courageous, not persuasive, fight,
upon this subject. We have been
doing hard hitting during the past
four years, and the voice that appeals
to Congress has been not the voice of
persuasion, but the voice of "a wronged
and injured community, addressing
itself in tones of indignation and re
We have been fighting
all along the lines. We, who are
Republicans, went to Minneapolis,
and we, who are Democrats, went to
Chicago, and we made a fight tor a
who would be favorable
to us. We made fight for a plat
form that would be favorable to US,
and we find that the general i'm
preston is, judged by experience,
judged by the history of the candi-
dates, that in
