was IN the city last night en- route to
Washington. In the course Of an inter
view. after speaking Of the effects of the
Wilson bill and the necessity for the Re
publicans to provide revenue for the
country, he said:
The so-called Baltimore plan of
finance is not likely to be accepted by
this or any other future congress. No
financial plan exclusively dictated by
bankers associations is calculated to
bring the needed financial relief to the
country.
''Nosrelief can come from any plan that
does not first broaden the basis of the
money of final redemption. What IS
needed IS BIZ metaIism. The way to Sc
cure this in my judgment is by an inter
national agreement between Germany
France. Italy and the United States
leaving England out Of the question al
together The latter country will never
agree TO bi metallism until forced to do
to by sheer necessity.
IAN agreement between the countries
L have mentioned Excluding England,
would give new lease Of prosperity to
the countries to the =sleement and cause
an emigration % people from England,
which would bring that gold basis coun-
try TO her knees
"The Populist party is the natural out
growth Of the financial tyranny which
naturally accom- panes the adoption Of
the narrow gold standard If the great
nations of the earth are to continue this
policy, then we will have more Populism.
The recent defeat of the Populist party
cannot be construed as a defeat for bi-
metaliism. lit was a defeat simply for
fiat paper money, and not a defeat for
silver.
"Ihe Republican majorities all over
the country this year are accounted for
by reason Of the conviction in the minds
Of the people that the protective policy
is the best policy for this country and
that the Republican party is the best
party 70 carry out that policy The
people also believe that the Republican
party Will adopt financial policy under
which it viii not be possible for the gold
brokers of this or any other country TO
control the treasury of the United States.
Think of a condition which permits
these money shavers to draw gold from
the treasury Of the United States and
then return it to the government in ex-
change for interest bearing securities.
This is what they did when Cleve-
land issued bonds the first time and it is
what they did when he Issued bonds the
second time.
