sprung from "bossism," on the part o
the chairman of the state central com
mittee and resulting from a conspirae,
to deliver the Democratic party of tn,
state into other hands. He interpret
the last paragraph to mean a contem
plated bolt to Populism, and reaffirm
his intention to stay with the grea
mass Of Democrats, who will refuse Il
be led astray by any new sensation
alism.
He spent a part Of the afternoon II
conference with some OF the leading
honest money Democrats champions
and then spoke to the public as fol
| lows:
'rhe convention has met and ad
journed. Its object was TO commit tn.
Democratic party the folly of unlimit
| ed coinage OF silver at the ratio of 10 tC
i. The convention represented but q
| small number OF persons. and has made
no impression upon the integrity of the
| Democratic party in Illinois. The
speeches of Messrs. Bryan, Hunter and
| others, made before the convention,
| were made UP OF merely empty plati-
tudss that admitted Of no contradiction
because they contained nothing to be
4 contradictsd.
'The convention afforded Governor
Altgeld an opportunity of displa wing
his ignorance OF American social or
CARNATIONS. The governor evidently
believes that there Is In this country a
poor class, which he kindly consents to
call the common people, Of which class
he unnecessarily ayows himself 10 be
the champion.
THAT the gentlemen who composed
the convention and who represented no.
body but themselves Endorsed the I'M
limited coinage of silver at the ratio
or 10 to l was expected. They came 10
Springfield for that purposes. That
they appointed delegates to represent
the Democratic party Of Illinois in
some unnamed convention was only
a means of letting themselves down de-
Gently. No Democratic monetary con-
vention will be held under any compe-
tent Democratic authority, and the gen.
tlemen who haye been appointed as
delegates TO such a convention will have
an Office without honor or prifit.
The convention demonstrates two
things. First, that the 'bossism' OF the
Democratic state committee and its
chairman, who propose to trasfer the
Democratic party 10 an outside organi-
cation, Is an exploded quantity, and.
second. that the Democratic party, IN
spite OF Its defeat at the elections, and
of the timidity and treachery OF those
who have, for this time being, control
Of its organization, will stand by Presi-
dent Cleveland in his iaudablc efforts to
maintain the public credit and the
parity with gold OF all the forms Of our
money.
From this date the unlimited coin
age of silver at the ratio of Is to /. is
an absolute issue in the Democratic
party. Democrats who favor the IN
limited coinage of silver will join their
fortunes with the Populists, while ro-
bust Democrats. who favor the policy
fnxx tA1 -
lean republic against all the commercial
nations OF the world. and maintaining
the parity as the champion OF consti-
tutional liberty. viii adhere to the ma
tionai Democratic organization.
II notice that the convention indorses
the action OF the state central commit
tee in calling the cenveH;ion-that was
20 be eSpected-but IL IL true notwith-
standing, that the call for the convsn-
ton was made IN order TO carry out a
scheme adverse TO the interests OF the
Democratic party. ] observe !
that the convention resolves that the |
Democratic members OF congress and |
the members Of the senate from the |
state be and are hereby instructed 20 I
use all honorable means 10 carry out 4
the principles enumerated. For rnyseIf.
say with the utmost candor that / will /
not obey this instruction. The CONVEX
ion which passed Il was not Demo
cratic convention and has no more
right 10 instruct me with regard 90 my
course than would a Republican or
Populist convention, for In the last
resolution IL confempls;es and provides
for bolt from the Democratic orgaBi-
ton
II was elected 20 the senate by Demo
rats and I expect 10 remain with the
Democratic organization until my term
expires"
