JUST WHAT HE SAID.
The Pith Of the Hon. Joseph W. BaiIey's Speech
on the Money Question Fri
day Night.

Below the State Herald reproduces
from stenographic notes part of Hon.
Joseph W. Baileys great speech at the
opera house Friday night:
Il do not differ with them as to the de-
STABILITY of having honest dollars, but I
differ very widely with them as to what
constitutes an honest dollar. They have
two definitions of an honest dollar. Some
Of them say that dollar is honest, and
only honest, when the material out of
which 1T is coined is worth the dollar into
which ii is coined, and the others content
themselves with the superficial declara-
ton that, IAN honest dollar is a. dollar
worth 100 cents" l have wondered many
times whether the men who offer us these
definitions have been deceived them
selves, or whether they were trying to
deceive the people. 1t must be one or it
must be the other; for certainly. no man
with a reasonably clear understanding of
this question can honestly believe that
either definition is good one. Let me
analyze them for you, and show you how
easy it is to expose their absurdity..
IF dollar is honest whenever The ma
terlal out of which 1t is Coined ssWorth
the dollar into which it is coined, l will
pledge my immortal soul that can make
as honest dollars out of copper as they
can out of gold The present law makes
the gold dollar, consisting of % $40 of
standard SOlu our unit OF Value, ana
provides for the free and unlimited coin
age of gold. If congress should amend
that law by providing that herea fter the
copper dollar, consisting of rs $40 grains
of copper, should be our unit of value,
and that the minis should be opened to
the free and unlimited coinage of copper,
1t would then be as absolutely certain
that 20 $40 grains of uncoined copper
would be worth copper dollar as 1t Is
now that rs $40 grains of uncoined gold
are worth gold dollar; because the gov
eminent would then stand ready to coin
the 25 $40 grains of copper into copper
dollar, just as 1t now stands ready to
coin rs $40 grains of gold into gold dol
lar. OF course, l perfectly understand
that a copper dollar, consisting of 25.8-10
grains of copper would not be worth any
thing like as much as a gold dollar con-
sisting of % $40 grains of gold, but that
Is not required by the definition of our
opponents. They only require that the
uncoined bullion shall be worth the coin
ed dollar; and it Is altogether too plain
for argument that no man would take
less than a dollar for a given amount of
any substance as long as the govern
ment would take the given amount of
that substance and coin 1t into a dollar
for him. The man who tells me that he
believes a dollar is honest because the
material out of which it is made Is worth
as much as the dollar into which 1t Is
made, renders me an excellent excuse for
believing in the gold standard; because
he shows that he knows nothing about
this question and I forgive him on the
score of ignorance"
