 ABSOLUTELY PURE

| " AAN eAA ny YS5'fSO,OOJ while the engineers, which, I believe Is the oldest organization, paid ou nearly $6, 100000. Railroad men. too are investors and stockholders in loar associations, and have money in say ing banks, or d.d have.
 What deep interest, therefore railroad men have in the right anC full settlement Of the money question Not only are they interested in pre- serving the integrity of their savings for their old age or disqualification and their insurance to their families Tn case of accident or death, but they are interested in their present and future wages. 1 do not believe the railroad men of this country will ever consent to having their saving cut in two, or their insurance money paid at the rate of g cents on the dollar. Nor will they be satisfied to receive their wages Tn anything but currency which will be worth full 100 cents.
 THE cOUNTRY's CREDITORS.
 Why, they are talking about the creditors Of this country. They are animadverting against them. Who are the creditors of this country? 
 They are the men who labor in this coun ry. The greatest creditors of this country today are the working men. Aside from what is due them in investments and savings, their cur rent wages make them the largest creditor class in the country. The employers Of this country owe their employees every thirty days Tn good times. More than the bonded debt of the United States, nearly $5O0,0O0, 900, is paid annually to the railroad employees alone. Does the railroad employe propose to have any party enact legislation which will cut bis pay roll from 9 to 50 per cent-in the name of cheap dollars? 1 have seen it stated somewhere that of 750,000 railroad employees in the United States, about 75 ger cent are voters. ! can- not be mistaken when l express the belief that these men will not cast their votes in favor of debased cur rency and the repudiation of other public and private obligations.
 Nothing marks the wonderful pro- gress of this country more than the railroad business. In 1880, 461 900 men were employed. In 1890, 714,OOO
 NOT HONESTY.
 It has been stated by some Demo cratic leaders that the free coinage of silver would raise the price of silver from 65 cents an ounce, the present market price, to $129 an ounce, or make 53 cents' worth of silver actually worth 100 cents. I do not believe the free coinage of silver product of the United States, tine free coinage of the silver product of the silver mines of the world, with the fiat of the govern ment of the United States, could make a thing worth 59 cents worth 100 cents. Such proposition is con- tradicted by reason and experience, and opposed to common sense and plain principles, and old-faShioned honesty.
 Much as I would be glad to speak to you longer, must not. Other delegations are coming. I thank you for the assurances of your support to to the great principles for which, by the favor of great political party, stand at this moment. I am glad to know that Indiana, the state of Harrison and Morton will stand this year as it has stood Tn all the years past, for the country and the country's honor and for policy that will give to the American people the largest prosperity in their homes, the greatest development of their resources, the highest credit of the government
