made the task OF delivering an elaborate
address before the convention a dill
culs one. After Senator Turpie had been
elected by acclamation he assumed the
chair and addressed the convention at
length in favor OF free silver. He closed
as follows: 1.-THE faith OF the advocate OF
a single gold standard is compounded of
ons ruth and one pernicious error. That
co!ac cd standard dollars should be of equal
legal value is true but that the metal in
them must b, of equal bullion value is a
fallacy SO contrary TO our common sense
and experience that 1t cannot be much
aided by prophecy"
Senator Turpie was accorded another
round of applause when he finished his
address. A committee on resolutions
was appointed--one member from each
state represented, Senator Jones, of Ar
kansas, being chairman and Senator Har.
ris a member from the United States at
large. Judge J. II. Mcdowell, of Ten
nessee, rose to ask recognition for the
Populists upon the committee on resolu-
tions. He carried his point without diff
Guilty and it was agreed that he be EN-.
powered to present the names of dele
gates, who were added to the committee
on resolutions as representatives Of the
Peoples party.
Ex-Governor Prince, of New Mexico,
said the reason there were no individual
delegates from a number Of western and
northwestern states was Chat at the Salt
Lake City silver conference a committee
had been appointed to represent those
states collectively, and that committee
was here. Speaking was next in order,
and Alexander Delmar, formerly direc-
tor Of the bureau of statistics and mining,
delivered long address He began by
saying that principle on which all par
ties in this issue unite is stability; he
was convinced that mo institution can
enjoy permanent footing in this coun-
try unless founded on,principles of equal
ity," and ANY system OF money that does
not point to substantial stability of
prices" will fail.
He reiterated the charge that the "de-
monetization of silver" was brought about
by fraud and surreptitiously. He was
loudly applauded, but the audience want
ed more speeches in spite OF the fact shat
it was time to take recess: The chair
finally declared the body adjourned to
evening and the delegates dispersed.

Hindman has issued an injunction re-
straining the commissioners and COM
mandant of the Iowa Soldiers home

years ago that all pensions i'll excess of s6

tce-Popuiists Represented.
Fully 1850 delegates were present in
the Auditorium when at 2:15 o'clock
President w. y. Brown, of the Central
Bimetallic League of Memphis, called
the convention to order and intro
duced Judge l.. II. Estes, OF Memphis,
who offered up n prayer. President
Brown then called for nominations for
permanent chairman, and Senator Isham
c. Harris, tho ante bcllum governor of
Tennessee, was given an enthusiastic re-
ccption when he arose to present the
name Of Senator David Turpie, of 1ndi-
ana. Harris said he had no idea of max
ing n speech, that he only wished to state
in word the purpose and objects of this
convention. II was called by the Central
Bimetallic League Of Shelby county, a
strictly non-partisan organization COM
posed of Democrats, Republicans and
Populists.
Its doors were thrown open Ito every
American citizen who honestly believed
in the propriety, the advisabllity and the
necessity Of the rehabilitation of silver.
Their doctrine Is bimctallism, and by BIZ
mctallism they mean the free and I'M
limited coinage of alfthe gold and all
the silver produced in this country. They
hold as TO this convention that n Demo-
crat can be present and participate in its
deliberations without impairing in the
slightest degree his allegiant or fidelity
to his party organization, and the same
is true of Republicans and Populists,
whose party fealty cannot be impeached
because of their open advocacy OF free
silver coinage. 1--WE are here" concluded
the senator. ''as band of frcemcn to
consider this all-absorbing question
which now confronts the American peo.
pie. We are to consider the coinage ques-
tion and that question only"
He then nominated Turpie, who was
elected with whoop and the senator
from Indiana was warmly received.
While he bears his 6S years lightly, his
voice was rather weak for the la.ge hall,
nd he showed that the warm weather

1HtiOn W Ill FOLLOW.
At the evening session, which began
promptly at 8 o'clock, Senator William
NJ Stewart of Nevada, presided and in
troduced Congressman Joseph Sibley, of
Pennsylvania. Siblcy was greeted with
thunders of applause, and in a two-hours'
speech aroused his audience to high
pitch of enthusiasm. He III ide an earnest
appeal for independent political action
in 1896, ard occupied good deal of time
illustrating the necessity of breaking
away from the old parties.
His auditors Were evidently with him,
for every attack upon Secretary Carlisle,
the president, or Senator Sherman was
greeted with n noisy demonstration, and
every time he asked the crowd if they
would remain with their old parties and
continue the domination of the English
money power, he was greeted with a
chorus of noes" He paid his respects to
the president and to Secretary Carlisle, in
very plain language, calling them 'trai.
tors" for their part in the conspiracy TO
demonetize silver and fasten upon the
country the hardships of gold stan
dard." All such outbursts as this were
greeted with tumultuous applause.

lifetime of my generation or the one that
follows it. You cannot put this fight off
beyond 1870 and win it. II the monomet-
alists win, then comes the retirement of
greenbacks, the forginr,sf 100000 fetters
on our industries. There are other great
questions to be considered, but they are
| insignificant rs compared with this. If
we lose this fight in 1895 two great condi-
tion are to be feared-repudiation or revo.

come"
Sibley expounded four political axioms
| which he said contained the result of his
study of the money question. They were:
First, double the volume of money and
| you double prices; second, divide the vol
| umc of money and you divide prices:
| third, double the volume OF money and
you divide the debts; fourth, divide the
| volume of money and you do uble the
debts.
Calls for Bryan failed to bring that gen.
| tleman to the front when Sibley had con-
lseluded, and Charles ). Thomas, of Dem
| yer, took the floor and spoke at length on
| tho subject before the convention, putting
| forward vigorous argument for the free

speeches the convention ad djourned for the

SILVER SUPPORTERS MUST STAND TOGETHER.

Nothing can defeat the righteous cause
of silver at is to except irrational per-
sonal and partisan dissensions among
the champions of the restoration of sill
yer to it's righ.ful place as money
metal. The friends of the white metal,
whatever may have been their past polit-
zeal affiliations, must make up their minds
to cast aside all minor and subordinate
issues and to stand together as a unit for
the bimetallism of the fathers. IF, as
now seems probable from the action
taken in Illinois, Iowa and other states
and the we'll known silver sentiment prev
alent in the south, the Democratic ma.
tional convention next year declares une-
quivocally for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to
and dominates candidates who can be i'm
plicity trusted to carry out that idea,
and the Republicans either boldly con-
trovert that proposition or adopt uncer-
tam, misleading, makeshift resolutions
on the subject with candidates to match,
then the duty of silver men will be SO
plain that sincere and earnest supporters
of the cause will not seek to evade it.
