the strained relations now existing be-
tween Germany and England.

the case with large corporations in this
country, the German banks VIII put in
their bids directly through their repre-

cratic national platform Of 1899,
which said: 1--WE hold to the use of
both gold and silver as the standard
money OF the country"
II is absurd to talk about having
two kinds OF money as standard
money IL the debtor can only use one
OF them. The resolution was opposed
by Senators Allen, Teeler, Butler and
others. Let the contest proceed. The
more resolutions there are introduced
and the more debates there are. the
greater will be the light thrown on
the subject. Out OF all this confusion
will come quiet, but only when the
United States returns to the principle
OF bimetallism and maintains the pari.
" between gold and silver, not by re.
deeming )ne with the other, or by
surrendering the option TO the cred
itors OF the government, but by plac.
ing gold and silver upon an equal foot
ing and using them both as standard
money without discrimination against
either metal. The parity cannot be
maintained by continual denuncia-
tion Of one metal and continual dis
elimination in favor of the other
