liosn state convention met yesterday
with ninety.three OF the ninsty-eight
counties represented. On the frat day
OF this month the PopuliBt state CON.
vention met here and nominated w. HI.
Worth for state treasurer, W. T. Fair
cloth for chief justice OF the supreme
court and G.. Connor, d. M. Furch and
Walter Clark for associate justices. The
contest to day was over the nomination
Of the entire ticket for the purpose OF
the fusing Of the Populist and republi-
can parties during this campaign. By
vote Of 154 to 80 the convention nomi-
mated t his ticket. The intention il to
unite on every office and only have one
candidate for each cfflCe to be voted

lars, which the treasury always keeps
on hand, and about which something
has heretofore BEEN said in the debate
on this bill, and that leaves, as the
maximum which can by any possibility
be used, 1900 million dollars. There
ought, in fairness, to be deducted from
this $50 million dollars, error in estimate
OF gold in the country, which would re-
duce the money outside the treasury
to 1,150 million dollars. From this is to
be- subtrsoted the 600 million dollars
kept as reserve, as before computed,
leaving balance Of $50 million dollars,
which is available for delivery or use in
the transaction Of the business Of all
the people, or q trife over So per capita.
But the force Of my argument ls not ma
terially weakened by oonCediDg the gold
coin to be ss estimated by the treasury
department, which would leaVein actual
circulation 700 million dollars. In order
to make up this amount all doubt must
be resolved in favor of the treasury and
against the people, both the doubt as to
the amount Of lost and destroyed notes
and that as to the gold supply. II I
were deciding this case upon what / con-
slider the best evidence, / would be
pou nd to say that / believed the money
in actual circulation did not much, IL at
all, exceed 500 million dollars. Upon
this narrow foundation has been built
the enormous structure Of credit of
which have spoken. 1t is the greatest
of the kind that was ever built, because
it was built by the best people that ever
built anything. Over % billions Of
debts, the enormous and widely ex-
tended business Of 65 millions of people

Continued from Ddqe Z,

renCY, and the motive Tor suCh nom
action is found in the remark of the
senator from Ohio moment ago, to the
effect that il more currency was wanted
inducements should be offered to the
national banks to supply it.
/ tell that senator, as l have often be-
fore said in my place here, that con-
Rress will never offer to any national
bank any inducement to take out or to
issue any more currency than they have
got now. It is after the feast entirely,
The country has made up it's mind that
the national banks are not to furnish it
with curredcy. They are no longer fac
tors in that great question. The issue Of
currency is an act Of sovereignty which
the people do not mean to have dele
gated to any further extent than it is
now, and as fast Rs the national-bank
currency now outstanding is retired
something else is to take It's place. The
question Of the volume Of the currency
is not to be settled by private corpora
tions upon the basis OF their own desire
for gain as against the public interest.
That is a question to be settled by
congress, and the senator from Ohio will
wait long time before his remedy OF
more currency to be issued by the banks
will be adopted. He will soon see what
he probably prefers, a still further re-
ductlon in the volume Of the currency.
To this complexion it has come at last.
The secretary Of the treasury, working
on the same line Rs the finance commit
tee, breaches the issue OF more national
bank currency, and, IN effect, threatens
the country-thst it Is that or nothing.
And thus, as we approach nearer and
nearer to the financial brink, and the
danger becomes greater, we are Rdmon
ished that the only remedy is more ma
tional bank circulation.
No one expects relief from the Secre-
tsry Of the treasury. 1t has got to come
from congress. The secretary OF the
tire ssury has power to issue 2 million
do liars q month Of silver certificates or
to coin 2 million dollars more Of silver
dollars, which would result in that
amount added OF silver certificates, but
he will not do that. We may be sure
that the administration Of the treasury
