Newspaper Company, Richmond, Va.
"The Chattanooga Times opposes
| the unlimited coinage of silver by this
country independently of international
agreement. The southern sentiment
for free silver is strong; it is not as
strong as it was a few months ago.
j. L. MacGowan, of the Chattanooga
(Tenn.) Times.
THE last national democratic plat
form about expressed my idea of the
silver question. l am in favor of coin
age of both gold and silver without
discrimination against either, but with
legislative safeguards to the extent of
preserving the parity of the two. "-R.

in favor of free coinage. j. P. Cald-
well, of the Charlotte IN. W Observer.
II agree with the president and the
secretary of the treasury and am for
sound money. In my opinion the right
thing would be the plank in the Chi
cago platform of 1892 with the addi-
tion of a more specific and ringing
declaration in favor of the repeal of
the ten per cent. tax state bank issues
under proper safeguards or an amend
ment to the national banking law that
will enable farmers and other owners
of unincum bered real estate to obtain
banking privileges at a reasonable
rate of interest. A large majority of
the business men of New Orleans and
the large interior cities are for sound
money. H. j. Hearsey, of the New
Orleans Daily States.
