"As a bi-metallist and as one OF the

makes his assertion that the bank has
decided 70 hold fifth OF its reserve in
silver. Had the bank done so its action
would have been strictly Ia accordance
with the hank set Of iSs4. and equally in
accordance with the action taken in ISst
by the government. then presided over.
by a monomet2ilist Mr.. Gladstone.
What the bank did IN ISIS was 70 assure
the treasury that the hank would always
be open 20 the purchase 81 silver or con-
dition Of the return Of the minis Of other
countries ia such rules as would insure
certainty Of conversion OF gold into silver
