Z
assembly willing to abandon the
gold standard and substitute inter.
national bimetallism1
13. The gold standard has been
indorsed by bankers, fnanciers and
chambers of commerce, but it had
never been indorsed by the pro.
ducers of wealth in any nation in
the world.
Will the republicans say that the
producers of wealth do not know
what is good for them, or should
only fnanciers be consulted in none
tary legislation
IA. The monetary commission
remained in England fer three
months, and the press dispatches
reported the commits ioners were
confident OF obtaining some cances-
sion from England. On the 22d day
of last September the bankers Of
London joined in luminous protest
agains! bimetallisn.
Does this not support our conten-
tion that the gold standard is advo.
Gated by the capitalistic classes of
the world!
Is. The republican party, in its
platform of 1896, after pledging
itself to international bimetallism'
declared that the gold standard
must be maintained until the leading
commercial nations joined in inter-
national bimetallism, declared that
the gold standard must be maintain
ed until the leading commercial
nations joined in international BIZ
metallism.
Is it we'll to thus allow the leading
| commercial nations of Europe to
dictate the financial policy of the
United States?
16. It is evident that the other
European nations will not join in
bimetallism 50 long as England uses
her great Influence against the
double standard, and it is also evi
dent thst England will not abandon
the gold standard without the con.
sent of her faanciers.

1910 he was brought by his parents
to Perry county, Ohio, near the
