by Mr.. Mckinley in 1891, in which he de-

Kinley they cheer fol, the Mckinley OF
six years ago, who wanted more money,
or the Mckinley of this year, who does
not want any more money? applause
and cheers.) Do you want the one who
six years ago believed in the American
people having American finance, or do
you want the one who believes now in
the Americans having an English system
of finance. (Cheers ana applause)
do you believe in the one who attend
ed a convention and wrote a platform
which declared that the American people
from tradition and interest favored BIZ
metallisn, or do you believe in the one
who says we can have bimetallism when
ever foreign nations will let us have it?''
