Senator Sherman Says the Bill Was
Fully Discussed.

Cincinnati, Sept. 23.-The Cincinnati Post
publishes today a letter from Senator Sher
man cmanating from the national Repub-
licaD campaign comim,tec. GefeBding tie
position his party took in the so-calied
crime of '73." Mr.. Sherman declares:
Il have Dcver been able TO see what
motive could have existed for secrecy in
this matter There was Io indication what
ever OF the fan Of silver and no one could
foresee that il WAS destined to rapidly de-
cline In price. No one asked 10 Eaye the
dollar coined and no one was opposed to
its disCoDtinuancc.
ITO prove that there was no secrecy and
not leave the matter to argument or in-
ference, copies Of tie bill Were sent to cx-
perCs all over the country asking their
opinion, and answers were received and laid
before the Congress in printed form in
which the discontinuance Of the silver dol
lar was thoroughly discussed.
The bill was reprinted thirteen times
and extra copies were printed for dis
tributioD. 1t was conned over, amended
and debated almost as copiousiy as any
measure ever considered in Congress, and
no man in either house proposed TO retain
the silver dollar. The fact that it was
omitted from our coins was referred to in
debate''

stake, he >iuucated. II is situation
which Lot OILY concerns parties anu parti-
sans. but the safety OF the home and coun-
try, and the perpetuity of our Tree iBstitu-
tious. Asiac from our couEtry's honor.
The Situation. Is nade more critical by party
zeal ia aying the laborer against the
employer aud the poor against the rich,
In the mere nope OF party victory. which
makes ii al! the more necessary for the
church OF Uod 10 Interfere with the gospel
of peace, in The hope of bringing about q
result that Will prevent what W e deem an
impending disaster.
Your cCti:tniitce having given Careful
study To tie situation of the country as 1t
concerns thc currency question, Inlesitat-
ingiy afrirru ,Lat as honest mcn We should
take a staLu ior what we deem to lie an

following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That while we respect our old

or wisdom in their attempt to control or
direct the votes of those who marched in

We believe that. as citizens, we are com

that we are more loyal to the old flag
