states and the & ninistration OF
President Harrison, insofar a5 they
have failed to accomplish the CON-
Ilete reconciliation Of silver, and
to eoact laws providing for tho
free and unrestricted coiaaga OK
that metal.
Resolved, That the restoration
of silver to the place It l'eupled
previous to the passage Oh the
Mint Act OF 1878, is essential to
the prosperity OF the country and
paramount to all other politicsi
considerations. The legislation
which robbed silver Of its money
functions and denied to the owner
Of silver bullion the right to have
the same coined into money upon
the some terms and conditions
which apply to the coinage of gold.
reduced the money Of ultimate re.
demption or payment, about one
half, and enabled the owners of
money and obligations payable la
