written by Major Mckinley to +. 5

Mr.. Perkins was at that time a

ton, Sept 27, 1s9o.-Dear Sir: I
have been 80 busy for the past three
weeks that it has been impossible
for me to give any attention to the
matter in the district, which fact, l
believe, my friends will appreciate.
I have been waiting for a moments
time that I might answer two or
three letters heretofore received from
gentlemen in Medina county in rela.
ton to my position Oh the silver and
other questions.
have always been in favor of the
free and unlimited coinage of the
silver product Of the United States.
and have so voted on at least two
occasions during the time I have
been in public life. l was not will
ing to extend this coinage to the
silver of the world and open our
mints to foreign countries without
charge, as proposed by gentlemen
on the floor OF the House My pur.
pose was to secure Immediately leg.
lation that would credit and dignity
our silver coin.
I believe the law which We enacted
this session will accomplish that re
suit. II utilizss every dollars worth
Of the silver product of the United
States, and even moro. The value of
that Legislation has already been
apparent in the enhanced value given
to silver.
You may remember, as indicating
my position on this subject, that I
voted to pass the silver bill IN the
Forty fifth and Forty. sixth Con
gresses over the veto e President
Hayes.
I shall be very glad to wlite you
at any time upon any subject ou
may wish to be informed. With me
