vail and when the work of this con-
vention is over, give to the people
q platform and ticket that will be
hailed with delight and supported
with enthusiasm by every voter III
the State that is not a slave to the
old parties. While the people of
Nevada took such bold stand two
years ago and cut loose from former
political affiliations for a principle |
and thus gained the admiration of J
the country for their independence
in thought and action, it seems to
me t. be the true policy to maintain |
the organization and name of the |
Silver party until two years hence |
when national ticket will be |
elected. CHEERS and voice, That's |
right you bet,) Especially in view
Of the fact that there is such an up
heaval of popular sentiment against
the old twin falsehoods that We may
reasonably conclude that the oppo-
sition sentiment will be so soliditied
in the South and West under one
banner and under one name az to in
sure victory at the polls. Applause
If THAI banner and that name shall
be that of the Peoples party, the
people of Nevada will be with that
party in name az well as in action so
long as it has inscribed upon its en
sign free coinage of silver ut the
ratio of 16 to l. Applause. / nr-
lieve that the restoration - nee
coinage as we understand It j g.. e
important to the wellfsrs e
country than the uphulla.: - eo-!-
tinuance of any 20 tic! par. now
in existence.
Ii is results l am At and results
are what the peocle want. Prosperity
cannot be restored to the country
through strikes, tariff or any panacea
that has been proposed except free
coinage of silver. Until free coinage
is reached prices will continue to go
lower and lower, and the purchasing
power of gold will go higher and
higher, Twenty years of experience
on a falling market, and one years
experience under gold 1egeime, are
proofs that connot be overthrow.
The well being of our country de-
ponds on the silver cause. There Is
no question but that The independent
position taken by Nevads IN the last
election has done more to advance
the cause of silver than twenty years
of voting for old party candidates
would have done, (applause) although
personally they might have advocated
the principles of bimetallsm at the
ratio of 16 to 1, but with such class
the desire of party success is greater
than tie love of principle,
| Nevada, little though she may be
in the eyes of the rest of the great
union of States, entered her protest
against the thraldom of the Republi-
can and Democratic parties with no
uncertain voice in 1892. She will do
the same this year as the reault will
testify when the sun goes down on
the 9th day of November, and will
stand before the world as State true
to her citizens, true to herself, and
true to the paramount question now
before the American people, the fire.
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 tc
1 independent Of any other nation.
CHEERS and applause,)
Since the name, Silver Party OF
Nevada, is such a thorn in the sides,
and causes such indescribable paving
of the ground by the twin breed o.
political cattle in the State branded
publicans" and Democrats,
and because such halloved associa
tions cluster around it, baptized as i
was by the life blood of George w
Cassidy, one of our great and gallan
silver advocates and acknowledge,
leader Of men, for one am Ill favo
of again marching to victory undo
the name of the Silver Party. Ap
plause.

rary Chairman of the Convention ar
!, now in order.

clamatlon.
