with prominent bimetallists from all
sections of the country perfecting
plans TO force Congress to give tho nation
free coinage of silver and some mea-

ed TO use every possible argument to con-
vince the East that II was to the interest
OF all classes TO restore silver and
give the country q proper per capita
circulation with which to do busi-
ness, and If the East persists IN reducing
the volume of money, which would en-
slave the West and South, that COM
bined effort would be made by those sec
tons to wipe out the protective tariff and

either the Federal or the Confederate
