WORDS OF WISDOM.

' Senator les,.-'If Congress had the
power now to put this country (sll
obligations being out of the way) on
single standard, the issue might be a
fair one; but with debts to the amount
of eight billions due by the United
States, the striking of about one half
the currency of the country would be
not only unjust and ruinous, but abso-
lutely wicked.

: Goeersor Waite at CAamaaqua.-
'We Of the West don't intend to wade
in blood. We believe in the priceless
principles of which the constitution
was builded, but say to you that let
this impression go on, let it continue;
this attitude of striking the West by
the East because you have the power
and let any candidate of your old par
ties go before the people in 1896, on
platform of protection, when the West
has no protection, and he will not get
vote west of the Ohio or south of the
Potomac

' Ne,o Tork; "Recorder,"-"The bus
iness of this country cannot be done
upon a purely gold basis. There is too
much business to be done and too little
gold to do it with to justify the exper-
iment of currency based wholly on one
metal, and that one the scarcest and
dearest of the two. The total disfran-
chisement of silver as money metal,
which seems to be the aim of the gold
extremists at Washington, means a
violent and ruinous contraction of
values. The mere threat of it has al
ready given the first sharp twist to the
screws of contraction. To persist in
the total elimination of silver from our
currency is madness,

: Judge Amos Money is arti-
fetal, arbitrary, fixed. Its value does
not arise out Of its commercial or com
modify value. It's the stamp that
makes the money. As money, it has
no relation to itself as a commodity; as
money, it is function, a use, to-wit:
to exchange all services and commodi-
ties. The possibilities of our country
are equal to the maintenance of free
coinage, alone and against al. the
world. Try it. See what it will do
If unequal, it can be repealed. Abso-
lutely full legal tender will keep it at
par. Free coinage will raise all silver
to $l.29 aud keep it there. Things
which are equal cannot be at a dispari-
ty.'"

Congressman Bomers Of CalJornio:
MANY Of the banks of the United
States which are to-day with their
doors closed, would be glad to receive

nation can make it's own money

land wants to put up the bars, all
right. Which can stand it the long

HoUsE-Thr silver debate was resumed i'm
mediately after the reading OF the journal, and
Mr. McCreary, Democrat Kentucky took the
floor in advocacy Of the repeal Of the pur-
chasing clause OF the sherman act. lie said
that TO DAY England hoped that the United
States would adopt free-coinage bill and
would come to a silver basis, because then
she would get our $3.50. 600 600 of gold. The
United States could not afford TO adopt a free
coinage policy now. 40 country alone could
maintain such coinage The only path to
free coinage was through international agree
ueut, and the only way TO reach that path
was to repeal the purchasing clause OF the
sherman act As a bl-metalist he did not
wish to see this country relegated TO a silver
basis.
Mr.. Catehings Of Mississippi said that he
would vote for the unconditional repeal of
the purchasing clause Of the Sherman act and
he would vote against any proposition, direct
ly or indirectly, to eject the free coinage Of
silver In this country at this time at any ratio
that could be suggested.
MIR. Livingston Georgia. spoke for free
coinage He WAS followed hy Mr.. Richards
Of Ohio who favored unconditional repeal. IN

Kansas and Clark Of Missouri spoke in favor
Of free coinage

SESATE.-Senator Allen gave notice of an
amendment to the repeal bill which will per-
nit the free coinage Of silver at lG to /. Mr..
voorhees, of the finance committee then took
the floor and addressed the Senate In advocacy
of the bill reported by him disseminating the
purchase of silver bullion. Mr.. voorhees,,
while emphatically declaring that he favored
bi-metallism, argued that the purchasing
clause of the Sherman bill should be at once
repealed Internationally. He expressed
views OF very contradictory nature and the
speech was unsatisfactory to both sides. The
Senate chamber and the galleries were
crowded and a large number of reprcsenta-
tivcs were present. The speech occupied nm
hour and thirty-fve minutes. After Mr.
voorhees, took his seat he was congratulated
by many senators. The galleries then began
TO thin out and majority OF the senators
left the chamber.
Debate was continued by Mr.. Dubois in op
position to the bill. What vote of the peo-
pie, he asked, had Instructed Congress to
abandon bi-mctallism' There was not a sen
ator on the floor, he said, who had not been
elected on platform which pledged him to
bi-metalllsm. No party had declared at any
convention In favor OF mono-fnetaIlism, and
none ever would. lie insisted. most earnestly,
that no representative of the people had n
