out a certificate showing that the meet
ing was held, and that the persons NAM
ed in the certificate were duly elected
delegate and alternate to attend said
bimetallic convention. Care should be
taken in all cases to elect only such per-
sons as will promise to attend the con-
vention, as 1t Is desirable to have full
delegation from this state.
No person shall be eligible to be del
egate to the national convention of BIZ
metallists who will not declare himself
to be unalterably opposed to the single
gold standard, and demand the immedi-
ate return to the constitutional standard
of gold and silver by the restoration by
this government, Independently of any
foreign power, of the unrestricted COIN
age of both gold and silver into standard
money at the ratio of 16 to l. and upon
terms of exact equality as they existed
prior to 1873, the silver coin to be full
legal tender equally with gold for all
debts and dues public and private; and
that he will support the nominee of the
bimetallic convention without reference
to past party affiliations. The delegate
thus elected shall also, by virtue of such
election, become q member f'the state
central committee of the bimetallic party
in his county during the campaign.
This plan has been adopted as the most
feasible to secure thorough represen-
delegates at large will be appointed by
this executive committee. When the ere
dentials are made out they should be de-
livered to the delegates and alternates
and copies of the same should be at
once returned to this office, so that we
may have due notice of those composing
the delegation for arranging transporta-
tion facilities and other important pre-
liminaries.
In cases where n senatorial district
comprises more than one county, the
place of holding such convention should
be town or city which will furnish the
easiest means of access from all parts
of the district. All newspapers In the
state friendly to the cause of bimetallism
are respectfully solicited to publish this
call in order to give it general circula-
tion, and each bimetallst is requested to
join in the work of arranging place of
meeting and other preliminaries, and to
