Now, fellow citizens, | have said all /

age of silver. | have the confident hope
that the great body of the republican and
democratic parties, representing the con
sentative elements of our people, Will
stamp their rebuke upon this measure OF
infamy and thus preserve intact the
honor, the credit and glory of our great
country. This matter of the free coinage
OF silver and the degradation of the
standard of value involves not only ques-
tions of money, but of honor and good
faith. When their honor is involved the
people never fail to respond. They have
complied with every promise and paid
every debt contracted since the organiza-
ton OF the national government as it be-
came due. They have paid four-fifths of
the debt contracted during the civil war,
and the prospect was hopeful that all of
it would be paid before the close of the
century, but this reversing our standards

said:
Let us contemplate for a while the in
evitable result Of the free coinage OF sill
yer, even if repeat what say. 1t would
obligate every contract for the payment
OF money made since Jan. l, 1879. The
resumption act, which went into opera
ton on that day, provided for the pay
ment in coin on demand of all United
States notes presented for redemption.
All forms Of money, whet her Of silver or
gold or paper were then maintained at par
with each other, and have been SO main
tanned ever since. During all this period
gold and silver coins at par with each
other have been the standards of value of
all loans, contracts or purchases, and the
faith of the United States was pledged for
their maintenance at parity with each
other. Although silver bullion declined
in market value, the coins made from it
have been kept at par with gold coins at
the legal ratio Of IS to l. But if the free
coinage of silver is authorized, then the
market value of silver bullion becomes

WHAT SENATOR JONES SAID.

1t has been said that the dropping OF
the silver dollar in the coinage act OF
1873 was surreptitiously done. This
charge is shown to be false by the de-
bates in Congress, and especially by
declarations of the men who now make
the charge. Sixteen months after the
passage Of that act Senator Jones, of
