OMAHA, June G0.-Ex-Governor Boies

interview, in which the governor says that
Whitney is right in his conclusion that
the time for discussion is past and that all
the arguments of the gold men have been
weighed by the people of tho south and
west and that their Judgment has been
given for silver. He denies that the silver
men are forsaking Democratic funda-
mental principles, and asserts that tho
Democracy has always occupied the
ground now held by the silver people He
also holds that al the obligations of the
United States are payable in "coin" of the
weight and fineness existing before silver
was demonetizcd, and that such payment
would not be violation of national honor

of Teller's silver Republican and Populist

thought of. Not one word will be said
and not a single step-will be taken which
would in any way tend to embarrass the
candidacy of Bryan.
