HILL ON BIMETALLISM.
What He Said OF the Money Question Less
Than Three Years Ago.

OF
Repeal of Sherman Purchase IAw
~ do not believe in a single gold standard
single silver standard, but do believe in the use
OF both gold and silver the standard money of the
country, and in their free coinage at minis at
proper ratio and without discrimination of one metal
as against the other.
1.-The Sherman law ia Objectionable because it
directs the purchase of silver instead of providing
TOR the free coinage of silver Purchase price
price means commodity, and the treatment of silver
as commodity means its derogation from its in.
trinsic rank money metal Gold has free coin.
age, and hence it has price in the United States
1t has the right of free coinage into full legal tender
Tor the people who bring it, to any amount to the
minis. Silver coming nations have not purchased
silver They coin it for the people just gold coin
ing nations coin gold. 1t is the absence of the free
coinage of silver the existence of limited and re.
stricted coinage that compels government purchases
OF silver, and such purchases absolutely prevent
parity. Free metallic coinage is essential to the
parity of the two metals, and nothing else will
cessfully and satisfactorily maintain such parity.
The British new.fangled theory of gold
metasm is an ignorant, insuar weak.minded theory
like their theory of taxation without representation
before 1776. Return to the bimetallism of
1913. 1t is permanent remedy for our financial
difficulties. Free silver coinage has not failed The
country has not tried free coinage since it
Willingly abandoned in 1873 but it has tried
limited and restricted coinage. Silver purchases, the
accumulation of silver bullion and deprecated
rency, all of which have been forced upon the
try by monometasts through miserable compromises
obtained from silver money. Why not try the only
remedy that has not yet been applied The insult
fciency of present volume of currency seems to
be everywhere conceded, and yet there is unac
countable reluctance to establish permanent fnan-
cial SYSTEM, under which that deficiency be easily
supplied.
al have heard intelligent men frequently say
Let us have dollars worth of silver in silver
dollar and everybody would be satisfied This is
very narrow and superficial view of great problem,
for the solution depends little upon matter of
ratio.
:" If the ratio is changed, it should not be en-
larged but diminished, and put at l54, as to
respond with that of the Latin Union

policy of this country If he really favors the single
gold standard l absolutely decline to follow him in
his new departure. shall refuse to follow any adj
ministraton which seeks to place the democratic
party in a false position, which seeks to lead it away
from its traditions away from the currency of our
fathers away from the path of safety, away from
democratic principles and platforms and into the
camp of the enemy. The president must rely upon
republican votes to carry out any such suicidal
