1.-THE presidents message" interrupt

age of that bullion and the redemption
of these notes in silver?' Democratic
applause.
The secretary now has authority to
coin and redeem the Sherman notes"
said Mr. Payne, ''but one thing at a
time. The bill proposes to give the
government power to redeem United
States gold obligations in gold
He argued that the purpose of the
administration was not to sell the
bonds to the Morgan syndicate at an
exorbitant rate of interest and throw
the responsibility on a Republican
Congress
Mr.. Russell (Rep. Comm supported
the bill briefly and Mr.. Crisp Dem.
Ga) then closed for the Democratic
side and Mr.. Dalzell Rep. Pa) for the
majority.
Mr. Crisp, who closed the debate for
the Democrats, said in conclusion: L
do not believe IN the retirement of the
greenbacks; / do not believe in the
single standard; l do not believe in
contracting the currency of this coun-
try as it would be contracted by the
retirement OF the greenbacks. Nor do
[ believe in expressing the debtors OF
this country and the world as they
would be oppressed by fixing the
standard of value wholly upon one
metal.
