HARRISBURG, W. VA, July 2.-four
correspondent yesterday had the following
interview with Senator Chas. j. Faulkner;
"What is your opinion and what will be
your position, Senator, in reference to the
repeal of the Sherman silver act ?"
Senator Faulkner.-'I have always been
in favor of bi-metalism as the basis OF our
monetary system, being in full accord with
the Democratic platform adopted at Chlca-

ton of the fiscal legislation of the RePubll-
can party which to day is giving US 90 cent
silver dollar.
"The principle Of honesty and the inter
est of this great aud prosperous republic
demands that every dollar issued under
authority of the national government shall
be of intrinsic and exchangeable value
The Sherman law rests upon an essentially
false and vicious principle, which was IN
dorsed for the first time in the history Of the
country by solid vote Of the Republican
party and against the unanimous protest
of the Democratic party in both
houses. voted against its passage. Dur

consideration, with the view Of repeating 1t
aud shall at the next session Of Congress

principle-yote for its repeal.

make on this question "
Senator Faulkuer-"I am not one OF
those who believe that the present stringen
CIV. want Of confidence of the people and
expectation OF gold from this country is
alone Attributable to the Sherman act
Other causes have united with it to produce
this universal condition throughout the
country. Since the action of the govern

not sufficiently considered or digested the
effect that will flow from it that would
Justify me at this time in suggesting any
particular legislation that should follow the

trusted the solution of this problem. DIFF

sacrifice of principle, that. Legislation en-
acted may fairly aud legitimately give ex-
preston to a policy that shall be essential

Judge E. B. Faulkner, being on the

in matters political. He however said: 81

thing. He has never occupied any doubt
