The following letter from Hon. r W.
Blue to P. H. Coney Of this city, which
WAS published in the LeavenwOrth Times
recently, clearly defines Mr. Blues posi-
ton in favor Of the RECOMMENDATION Of
silver at any ratio. This letter is in reply
TO a letter from Mr. Coney to BIZ. Blue
relative to his position on the silver ques-
ton:
Il have not seen Senator Cameron's
speech. but I read his letter. I notice
that Lodge, Cameron and Reed are all
for a restoration Of silver, but no one Of
them commits himself to ratio. I have
said to them up here in addition
20 what I said at Fredonia that
was in favor of a full restora-
ton Of silver as money under the Repub-
llcan platforms, national and state. and
that was ready to support any ratio
that would bring that about have
striven to show them that ratio was large
~ matter Of detail and that the great
leaders of the Republican party were in
favor Of the restoration of silver, and
that they were too wise to tie themselves
down to any particular ratio. As a rule
all legislation IS a compromise What
the great mass of the people of the
United States wish is the restoration of
silver as money. Ratios can be fixed
when the Legislation for restoration is on
its passage.
Western Republicans voted along that
line during the present session of Con-
gress, while the ignorant and narrow
minded Populist voted for free coinage
act on the ratio of sixteen TO one and re-
fused to vote for any other ratio.
