CnIcAao, July e2-The contention oil
usnrs. HOrr and Harvey over the sill
ycr question WAS resumed in the Illinois
Club House this afternoon.
The days talk was opened by Mr..
Harvey. lie said that the debate ot tho
la,. session was OF value Os showing that
during tho past forty yOSra silver had
beOn steadily coined, in spite OF the
assertion to the contrary; that by tho
table copied from the reports OF the
mint the commercial ratio between gold
sud silver had been maintained at about
the French coinage ratio OF l5l
to for 200 years; that during tho
twenty-five years sinca 1873, as
ihs result Of demonstration, the
commercial ratio had declined to
S9tol; that in tho ass years prior TO
1873, the quantity Of ratio between gold
and silver had ranged from 90 OF silver
10 pus OF gold, TO four Of silver to ono
Of gold, and shat during NIL that timo
tho commercial ratio had chung closely
10 the legal ratio. During all that time
tho commercial price OF silver bullion
had remained steady. Since 1873 ithad
steadily and rapidly decreased. 1t was
the dominating influence Of London on
exchange to all parts OF ths world which
led 80 gold being recognized by the
world as tho standard in ali commercial
VlusReIions.

PRIMARY MONEY,
Mr.. Horr said Mr.. Haryay's definition
Of primary money was money Of re-
dOmption. Greenbacka had to be re.
deemed to make them good and they
could not by any hook or crook DO con-
strnOd into primary money. Mr.. uorr
then said:
snow in 1870 we did return tho specie
payment. Wo did make our greenbackI
and ail our money as good as tho best
aud Brother Harvey and his whole
crowd OF followers and ndherents were
going up and down this country stating
that ii wo undertook to enforce that act
We would ruin tho business OF tho coun.
Try"
Mr. Harvey denied that Nr. Hor was
justified in calling him greenbScker,
and said that he believed In gold aud
silver as primary money to the fullest
extent under the bi.mstallIc laws that
governed it prior TO 1873.
In relation to the claim Of Mr.. HoTr
that ali tho civilized nations Of tho
earth we're in favor Of the gold standard.
Mr.. Harvey said that all the civilized
nations OF tho Garth were at ono time
slRyO.holding nations, aud tho indI-
vldual shareholders had made pro.
cisnly the argument advocated by Mr..
Aorr.
This closed tho debate for tho day,
aud an adjournment was tRkOn until

any merchant happy. We have

popularity, stands away at the

these goods at prices so low that
visitors quickly become buyers,
and the buyers freely admit that
this is the cheapest stock in town.
We notice a daily increase IN the
volume of our trade, the evident
satisfaction of our customers, and
the growth of the idea that we
are ready and willing to do little
better by our trade than anyone
