Congressman U. S. Hall, of Missouri
who, like Livingston, of Georgia, and
others, owes his position in Congress to
the deception he practiced on the AL
lance, or Farmers and Laborers
union Of his state, has been creating a
little sensation in Congress.
Hall is one of those shrewd fellows
who took advantage Of a popular up
rising among the people against exist
ing evils to boost himself and few
friends that helped him into a salarled
positions. He never could have broke
into Congress any other way, and his
treachery to the organization that Gle
waited him to the position is fitting
evidence Of the unscrupulousness Of the
man. He went to Congress as a free
silver advocate. He assisted in con-
structing the st. Louis demands at the
joint meeting of the Alliance and
knights of Labor, in December, 1889,
and also the Ocala demands a year
later. He was then a warm advocate
of free silver.
In 1892 he took a prominent part in
the Missouri campaign, running against
Chas. H. Mansur, and aided other
leaders in deceiving the members Of
his party into the belief that the ma
tional platform adopted at Chicago
meant free silver Now he says the
platform don't mean any such thing.
He was speaking on the free silver
senate amendment to the bond bill, and
said:
II observed a remark Of my friend
from Georgia this morning to the effect
that in voting for this first section Of
the Senate amendment he was stand
ing upon the democratic platform
adopted at Chicago in 1892 know that
l am talking for a body of men who
know that platform by heart, and
defy any one os them to produce one
section Of that platform that warrants
vote by any democrat for the first
section Of this Senate substitute. You
can not find any such provision in the
Chicago platform of 1892 You will find |
in that platform Of the democratic ma
tional convention a declaration that one |
dollar should be made as good % an
other in the United States and the |
world over. You will find in the plat
form Of one national convention a doc
trine corresponding exactly with the
first section Of that senate resolution; l
refer to the national platform of the
populist party, announced at Omaha,
July 4, 1892 That is the only political
platform in the United States that has
ever laid down such a doctrine as that
in this senate resolution"
Mr.. Talbert, Of South Carolina, asked
him II he did not vote for free silver
when he was first elected to congress?
Mr.. Hall replied:
THE gentleman from South Carolina
!sks II did not vote for the free silver
coinage bill in the extra session in
1893. 1 answer, yes. But l will tell
he gentleman that l have progressed
ince that time"
Now progressed" is a very good
