ments to the bond bill Mr.. Baker indicat-
ed in a conversation that this was the
course he would take, but he justified it
then on the ground that being opposed
to the issue of any kind of bonds he could
consistently vote against free coinage

The free coinage amendment however,
proved to be a substitute which struck
out all the bond provisions, 30 Mr.. Baker
would not have had to vote for any
bonds.
The eastern gold men are no doubt
greatly gratifed and surprised to have a
recruit from the silver section, but the
desertion of one who would naturally be
of their number does not please the
western Republican senators.

ton whether public officer should vote
