Mr.. Horny whom? What proof have
you that anything was erased?
Nj; Haryey-Iil get to the, proof of that
little later. The standard silver dollar
! was frauduleutly omitted after the bill
| had passed both houses. 1t will be ques-
toned by our best citizens that such d
fraud could be practiced, AMI the hest
fancy with which they accept its truth
atteSts the integrity OF our citizenship.
Before offering my proof, and promise
you II shall be conclusive, l wish TO
speak of official crimes.
Didn't Know 1t Was Loaded.
Mr.. Harvey quoted Judge Kelly. chair
man of the committee reporting the bill
to show that in 1873 we were not using
coin. and that neither house appreciated
the scope and magnitude of the bill, or
to have given its political study, partic-
ularly as ii was a bill TO reorganize the
minis. not to revise the coin money of

and 1t Is believed because it is confessed.
The percentage Of those who confess to
those who are otherwise found guilty
and punished is probably not to exceed
/ per cent, and only small proportion of
those corrupted are ever arraigned.
A few years ago, within our own recol-

national legislature of France were found

Mr.. Horr-Mr. Harvey still continues to
rest his case upon an attempt TO prove
that the human family is made up of
scoundrels; that there is no such thing
as honor among the people of this or ally
other country.
The Infamous statement that every man
has his price ought to be branded upon

t is equalled only by the Aher statement
that there is no such thing as virtue
