 The speaker said his maiden speech In congress was delivered against the Tree coinage of silver. He was one of Ahe New York delegates to the Chicago Convention and at once upon the adop Hon of the Chicago platform he repud- Rated the same and the party which Endorsed the platform. If such action 8onstituted him bolter he gloried in %hat designation. He hoped and be- Aeved November would bring the elec- lion of Major Mckinley to the presi- Aency
 Discussing the silver question he paid lis respects to the recent remark made Nv MT. Bryan that i've do not want Do good a dollar" but the speaker de- @ared that no money could be too good br the American people. The United Hates has the best money in the world. Bhe varying prices of wheat have been Hue to the demand and supply of that Article and not because of any ring of Npeculators, as Senator Butler seems b think
 Free coinage of silver would have isastrous effect upon pensioners, upon hvings bank depositors and upon life hsurance values. The paramount euestion in this campaign is the money suestion, but there are other vital is- Ales also. The other night the anar- 8list governor of Illinois came to New fork and defended the plank favoring he packing of the supreme court of he United States.
 In congress, said the speaker, I voted igainst the Wilson bill because I be- AeVed 1t would not raise sufficient reve- 8ue, but that it was tariff for a def- 1t, and because it imposed an unjust Acome tax, on New York and on Massa- 1usetts Governor Altgeld spoke in #hvor of the plank, declaring against Aderal interference. The safeguards of @e constitution declare that the postal ervice and interstate commerce shall e under the control of the national hvernment. It is the duty of loyal cit lens to vote against Altgeldism and illmanism. All who desire to keep the htional flag and the national honor nsullied should vote for honest money. Applause.)
