A home rule resolution reassuring the

He Never Could Have Secured the
American Products Coinage.
Denver, Sept. g.. = During the past few
years Senator Teller's enemies have indus
triously circulated the report that II the
senior Colorado senator and his silver col
leagues had been willing to accept 1t, they
could have secured the coinage of American
silver product In reply to an inquiry
concerning the matter Senator Teller has
written the following letter:
''This story has been industriously circu-
lated throughout the West during the last
two years. There is not one word of truth
in the statement The free coinage of the
American product was always weaker In
both congressional bodies than the unlim-
tied coinage of silver. There never has been
a president, since I have been in public
life, who would have signed bill for the
coinage of the American product, nor has
there been time when such vote could
have been had in either house of congress.
Those who state that there has been time
when the free coinage of the American
product could have been secured are either
grossly ignorant or very wicked. Mr. Nc
Kinley has never ut any time favored the
coinage of the American product, and his
letter of acceptance shows that he is not
friendly to any legislation favorable to
silver"
