M'ENERY FOR FREE SILVER.
Louisiana New Senator Favors the
White Metal.

Before the Democratic caucus that
nominated him, Mr.. McEnery explain
Ell his position with regard 30 silver
and protection. 1t was in 1866 that he
first made his views understood, he
said. He had studied the question
without even thinking he would be
called upon to participate in national
councils.
During the time of the ConfedeRey
of the States, before 1850, the nation
was without currency Mr.. Nc
Emery continued, land the coins of
all nations circulated in the colonies.
Governor Morris had one plan for a
currency and Thomas Jefferson want
ed another. Morris wanted the coin to
he SO impressed as to appeal to the af-
fections of the people, and Jefferson
wanted the decimal system. They
both wanted silver
"In 1745 the Jefferson plan was
adopted and the silver dollar was de-
clared the standard. Hamilton per-
fected the final system, but only car
ried out the plan of Jefferson. These
facts impressed me with the belief that
the silver dollar emanated from the
Democratic party. 1T was placed in
the currency by Washington, Jefferson
and Hamilton, and that was sufficient
authority for me. Gold should take it's
place as a token money and circulate
side by side with silver. Let us have
bimettalism."
On the question of protection, he
thought sugar, the great staple of
Louisiana, was the ideal article for
projections; also that it was entitled
to protection in the same ratio as other
manufactured articles. His authority
for this came from the same Demo
cratic source.
