! beg to make the reply to your
three questions:
lin my opinion the main issue
should be the restoration OF silver to Its
former position In the coinage OF the
country.
2.-The most practical and hopeful
policy for the advocates OF blmetallism
to pursue IN the coming campaign Is
TO endeavor to control and write the
platform OF the Democratic party,
at Ia desirable to align the sup
porters OF blmetalllsm In compact
body In the approaching contest but
this should be done by Democratic BIZ
metalllsts securing the control Of their
party. Should they be successful In
this. bimetalllsts from other parties
would Join them and make success In
the election possible. There is no pos-
sible chance to secure bimetallism
through the Republican party, and
Democrats can under no circumstances
AFFORD TO support the Populists because
OF their heresies on other questions
