II am not such a gold bug as many
believe me to be. believe in both gold
and silver and always have"
This remark was greeted within storm
of applause. When he came to the
"crime of 49," he defended his actions
in the senate by saying that every
senator from the western states voted
for 1t. He commented upon the actions
Of Senators Jones and Stewart at that
time. and said that today these gentle
men were advocating free silver. He
dwelt at length on the statement that
he was a bimetallic advocate and said,
in conclusions:
II am a bimetallic man and have al
ways favored the use Of the two metals
since I was in the senate. I am the
best bimetallic man in the country. If
1 could raise the price of silver to $1.29
by any act of mine, would walk from
here to my home on my knees and do
it rejoicing. I am also in favor of inter-
national bimetallism. With a Republic
can government, 1 believe we can gring
about an international agreement. All
other countries are approaching 1t.
France and Germany are now ready.
England is not ready to make the move
owing to her large holdings. We are
the moving agent in this matter. Many
say we are the knucklipg country. God
forbid that we should knuckle to any.
II we have free coinage of silver alone
we will have a silver standard only"
Senator Sherman's concluding re-
marks were devoted to answering ques-
lions and again reiterated his devotion
to parity between gold and silver. and
said if he could lower gold and raise
silver, he would do so. He did not want
silver to play second fiddle to gold.
His speech lasted for one hour and forty
five minutes and in conclusion he paid
Mckinley and Bryan each a ringing
tribute.
+ Senator Sherman intended to go fur-
Their west, but he decided tonight that
he would not be able to stand the trip
and set out for the east again, two hours
after the conclusion Of his speech.

HELENA, Mont, Sept. 19.-United
States Senator John Sherman of Ohio,
who is out west for an outing with Cen
eral Miles and has been visiting in He
lena while General Miles went north
on a hunting trip, talked about sound
money, to large audience in the audi
forum here tonight. The speech was
under the direction of the officers of the
state central committee Of the Repub-
lican party. Chairman Hershfield of
the state committee presided, and the in
troductory speech was made by Lieuten-
ant-governor A. c. Botkin, the nominee
Of the Republicans for governor of the
state On the platform were United
States Senator Thomas H. Carter and
ex-Senators Powers and Sanders. be-
sides number of members of the Nc
Kinley and Hobart club of Helena, Gov
ernor Richards private secretary, A. B.
Keith, of this city, asked permission at
the opening of the meeting to submit a
list Of questions for answers, and sent
them to the platform, but Senator Sher-
man said that he had given it out before
hand that those who wished to have
questions answered should send them
to him during the afternoon and he
would pay no attention to those that had
not been sent in that way.
The main part of Senator Sherman's
address was on the financial question.
He went over the story of the coinage
acts of the government ever since the
beginning and declared that the silver
dollar had been left out of consideration
in 1858 and that the act of 1873, known
as the "crime of 1873" did not demone-
tie silver at ALL He said that the DEM
ocratic party was the only party that
had ever run the country persistently in
debt and the Republican party was the
only party that had ever pulled it out
again, and that the present administra-
ton had done nothing to deserve COM
mendation. He spoke an hour and TWEEN
ty minutes and was listened to attent-
lively. When he mentioned the name of
William j. Bryan, in referring to him
as McKinley's opponent. the cheering
continued for five minutes SO that he
could not proceed. There were some
cheers for Mckinley, but they were scat
tering as compared with those for the
Democratic nominee.
He devoted some time to telling what
the Republican party had done to build
up the government since the war and
how it had paid off SO much Of the gov
eminent debt during Harrison's admin
istration, and in conclusion said all of
it would be paid off, had he been re-
elected. He then took up the financial
question Of the day and said. In begin

NEW TRIAL GRANTED.
Alonzo Whitman Will Try to Prove
His Innocence.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 19.-The su-
preme court has ordered new trial for
Alonzo J. Whiteman, who was SEN
fenced to nine years imprisonment for
forgery. He cashed a check for $500 at
the Bank of California. The check was
drawn by Arthur Dixon, but the bank
knew of no such man. Whiteman was
arrested in New York and brought here
for trial. He commended that the check
was not forged, but was given to him
by his friend Dixon. The latter could
not be found and Whiteman was found
guilty. The supreme court holds that
the lower court erred in allowing other
checks to be introduced as evidence,
which were alleged to be forged, but
which were not proved,to be so. White
man now claims TO have affidavits from
Dixon that the check was all right as
far as he was concerned.
