tional convention OF tho American Bi.
metallic league was issued from the ma.
tional headquarters here this afternoon.
1t says OF the league:
Tho recent elimination Of events of
greatest moment TO tho people of this
country calls for wise counsel and de-
termined action on the part Of all patriotic
citizens. The concerted purpose manifest
Is to seize upon the present opportunity to
destroy silver as money and establish
finally and forever single gold
standard at one stroke. change
all debts to gold debts with ncver-ending
rise of gold and fall of prices. The finan-
cial disturbance is largely artificial. and
the needlessly created object lesson is
falsely attributed to the purpose of tho
silver law in order out Of u to create q
manifestation of public sentiment under
cover Of which the greater crimo Of over
throwing the money of the constitution
and establishing n single gold standard
may DO consummated. and as part of the
same great conspiracy the mints of India
have been closed, and the shock has been
felt around the world.
"Congress has been called to meet In
extra session Aug7 IL at this session tho
money standard OF the constitution is
overthrown and single standard of gold
Ia established TO be extcpded over tho
world, an economic revolution will be In
auRurated. more disastrous TO the welfare
of mankind. and especially to the proiuc-
ing and laborina classes, than any in the
history of the world.
'In view, therefore, of the threatening
conditions that have arisen IN answer to
the numerous appeals for action, the ex-
ecutive committee Of the American BIZ
metallic league deemed il proper to call
national convention at Chicago on August
I. All members Of the league are urged
to attend and all who are in favor
OF maintaining the constitution and
opposed to the establishment of n
single gold standard in tho United
States, without regard to party, are in
vi,ed to attend and participate in the de-
liberations Of the convention. All eco
nomic associations and all Industrial or
carnations are requested TO send dole
gates to tho convention. A special invi-
tation is extended to members of congress
and state Legislators, and tho governors
of states arc requested In appoint as
many delegates as they deem proper"
Tho call Is signed by A. j. Warner,
president, and William harrington, secre.
tary.
The idea Of the silver people 10 TO meet
at Chicago and adjourn TO Washington.
