Washington, Nov. S.-Thc campaign
for the free coinage Of silver will be
waged with ylgor during the next four
years l0prcparailon for the election In
1900. The directors Of the American
timetable union. who constitute the
bulk Of the silver leaders In three par.
ties. have decided to maintain headquar.

Is to be continued a, the request OF
the directors, Gen. a. J Warner. the
president OF the union. has issued the
following address TO the silver leagues
and blmetallIc unions of the United
States.
Silver has lost In this election, but
the battle for the overthrow Of the gold
standard has not ended. The dlsa hous
results that must attend upon the con.
tlnuance OF this standard make It i'm.
possible to rcllnquish the struggle
against It until II Is finally oyerthrown.
"The gold standard cannot be main.
talned. by increasing revenue because
revenues are not paid In gold The
attemp, 10 maintain the gold standard by
perpetual loans must also sooner or late
tall. The only other way Is by contract
ing c currency aud forcing down
price 20 low that gold will come here
OF itst 4 In such quantities as to con.
siitute, In part at least, the currency
with which revenues are paid, and no
debtor nation can maintain such poll.
cy Either course, therefore. leads to
inevitable ruin, the one by bankrupting
the government and the other by bank.
ruPting the eople. Either policy will
subject the United States absolutely to
British domination, and hence the re
ioieing OF the British press over the dc.
feat Of silver here. The victory for gold
Is victory of trusts and syndlcatci
wealth, brought about by corruption
and coercion. and not victory Of the
people or for the people, and II cannot
last. There must be an end also to the
appreciation OF money. The
Of money alone, u allowed
10 go on at a ratio II has gone on for the |
past twenty years, will, In half genera.
Ion more than transfer the bulk OF all
he wealth from this country from those
who have created Il to the hands OF the
lew who control the money and own
he debts. No power can be con celyed
10 porent TO gather wealth Into a few
hands a. the eeassless all.per"adlng
bower OF an approaching money stand. |
Ird. No civilization can stand against
t. 1t must end or the foundations upon
which free institutions rest will be bro. |
Ken up.
"The battle, therefore, for the restora
Ion OF silver must 90 on without abate.
nent, and urge upon all silver and III.
metallic leagues and unions to keep IN
heir organizations and to continue the
light until victory for the people Is fin.
lily won.
"The noble fight made by our intrepid
eader In the campaign Just ended en-
lears him 10 all who believe In the
lghteouness OF our cause, and under
us leadership we believe victory will be
Won In 1000"
