Cleveland. June 22.-Whlle the silver
men are not jubilant, they express the
utmost satisfaction with the result of the
fight In the Republican League conven.
tion. Here we are, a small minority"
said John Il. Byrnes of Denver tonight,
sand we have held our grouhd. With
all tho odds against us, there will not be
u word against silver. We shall enter
the national convention next year with
a perfectly free field In which to make
our fight for recognition. 1t Is not all
we hoped for, but 1t Is all we could pos
slhly expect We are content"
That expresses the sentiment OF nine
tenths of the silver advocates. Among
many OF the Eastern delegates the feel.
ing prevails that too much of victory
has been allowed the silver men, but
they are consoled by the, fact that the
action ID In accord with the league con-
stitution. 1t Is true that resolutions
were adopted at Denver last year, but
then. they say. a bad precedent should
not be followed. They feel that they
have emerged from complication that
threatened to damage the league and
embarrass the party. Harmony Is nc.
cepted rs fair price for the sacrifice.
The local papers tried to Interview del
cgates on the report of the committee on
resolutions. The free silver men all
expressed satisfaction, and the antl-sll-
yer men, as rule, would not express
any opinion. Senator Thurston OF Ne
braska, a leader against free silver, said:
"The report was entirely consistent
with the league organization, but
should have preferred disclaimer of
any authority or purpose TO make
platform or commit the party, followed
by such resolutions MS would express the
Views of these assembled delegates, on
political issues. am In favor of I'M
proving the financial plank of the last
Republican platform"
Mr. Churchill of Colorado said the
convention had not the courage to ex-
press any opinion on anything, and 1t
would be difficult to outline plans for
organization.
Mr.. Green. president OF the New York
league, said the convention had resolved
itself into nonentity. He insisted on
the meeting hearing Professor George
G. Gunton of New York, who had been
invited here to address the organizers
and officers on plans and principles. In
this meeting, as In the convention, Penn
sylyania opposed New York. Although
1t was known that General McAlpine
wanted Bowling made secretary, and
New York east her solid vote for Dowl-
ing. yet Pennsylvania voted for Byrncs
OF Colorado when the tide was tending
strongly toward Bowling.
