The following is from the New York
Sun Of April 3, and 1t shows how the
money crowd proposes to force lts ideas
on the currency question on the people.
1t is headed, "One Hundred Cents on
the Dollar" and ls as follows:
~Ihe following letter, sent to the
President OF the Chamber OF Commerce,
Ia reference to the disturbing agitation
for q debased currency through free
coinage Of silver, is instructive:
ALEXANDER E. Orr, President Chamber
Of Commerce, New York city: Sir-An-
BWering your circular letter Of March 5,
only just received by US, calling on all
concerned TO put STOP &c.
"Three years and more since we put
stop, 90 FAR as concerned ourselves, by
Issuing order blanks, bills, statements,
and every other document with payable
in United States gold or it's equivalent
printed on each and every Of them, by
steadily refusing all orders offered with
these conditions erased, and.by replying
to All complaining or abusive letters
(thoy have been numerous) that we
desired only orders from people who
bought intending to pay 100 cents on
the dollar.
IF others would have the courage OF
their convictions we are convinced from
our experience that they would lind the
size Of this 'bogie' quickly shrink and
eventually vanish.
I'VE have the honor to be, very re-
spSctRnlly.
