voice OF Missouri is heard it will be
heard again as it has been heard

CHARGED WITH DUPLICITY.
He is reported to have said that
he had learned tue error of his way,
and he had become satisfied that the
sound money theory, as interpreted
by John Sherman and Secretary Car
Isle, was the salvation of the country
and that he could no longer sub.
scribe to the silver heresy ;but, having
been elected by free silver constit
uency, upon free silver platform, he
would vote for the heresy. I did not
hear him say it. l do not know that
he did say it. But | know that it
was reported all over my State that
he did say SO, and that the declara-
tion was made by him,a never did
| hear a contradiction of it. II
that be true, then, while the gen
tlemen may have the information
that he says about the position of
the Senators and their votes on that
question, he has no "charge' to
make against them. Because if it be
true, if they voted for the bill, be.
lieving it to be wrong, and that fol
lowing in the track of ITS passage
comes the injury they are reported
as prohpesping, why should he make
charge against them, when they
are building what the gentleman
himself is reported everywhere as
saying he would do himself.
The people in Missouri are sturdy,
honest, brave, deserving people.
They are in favor of what they are
in favor Of at home or away from
home. They ere not afraid to say
what they are opposed to. The man
who faithfully represents that people
has no special mission to instruct
them, because they are not so dense
ly ignorant, but the man who wishes
to represent them, unless he misrep
resents them, feels bound to stick to
the views that he has already ex.
pressed to them when he received
his commission, or else explain to
them why he has abandoned the
commission which still he bears.
If my friend would go back to that
magnificent Second District of Mis-
souri, which he represents to-day,
and say that ''such change has
taken place in my judgement on this
question that 1 may no longer
honestly vote for what said l be
lieved ia and Advocated; and, of
course, J can Lot misrepresent you
by taking the other side; I return
you the commission which you in.
trusted to me"-if he did that and
went back to that splendid constit
uency in his new role as an instruc-
tor and advocate of what all his life
long, until the shadow of the Treas.
ury fell over him, he has condemned
if he did hs would hardly be his swn
successor. (Applause)
These people have not changed.
Ihat would be q sublime act of
courage; that would be the courage
which seems to part with something
that is going anyhow. daughter
