International Agreement.

iioI olSudl.
Just at this time when Senator Chand-
Ter of New HAMPSHIRE. as we'll as other
prominent republicans. are claiming that
the present administration, McK!lley and
Hanna included. are friendly to the free
coinage of silver by an international
agreement 1t might not be out OF place
to recall some of the history of last
years CAMPAIGN. OF course the blr,etal-
lists would gladly hail free coinage at
the hands OF the republicans or anybody
else. by international agreement or any
other way but they do not expect it,
1t will be remembered that fhe republI-
cans last year claimed:
That the gold standard is a good thing
that the decentralization of silver did no
harm. that the restoration of silver would
% no good. that we never mad bimstal-
lism in the United States; that the &C.
mand for free coinage of silver is simply
dishonest attempt on the part Of 4 few
silver mine-owners to palm off 50-cent
dollars on the farmer and laborcr; IL at
the half-civiized condition of China aud
india is due to the free coinage Of sill
yer; that England's greatness is due to the
single gold standard; that silver has de-
preclated because the cost of production
mas been lessened that we have sound"
and honest money now: that the value
or gold is fixed. stable Interchangeable, in
trinsic and independent OF all Law.
Now. we would like to ask few ques-
tons beaning on these claims, and would
be pleased to have some republican ad-
vocate of free coinage by international
agreement to answer them Here they
are:
!. Why do the opponents Of free coinage
want an international agreement II the
gold standard is a good thlngy
z. III RECOMMENDATION OF silver did no
harm. as the gold men contend, why have
an international agreement?
D. II restoration of silver will do u,
no good, why do they want an Information.
al agreement about 1t?
4. II there never was bimetallsm In
the United States, as you contcrd, and
we have grown to our immense proper
lions on single gold standard. why lave
bimetallism by international agreement
D II the demand for the free coinage
or silver be simply a dishonest attempt
on the part OF the silver mine owner to
palm Oft 50-cent dollars on the farmers
and laborers. why should their wicked and
holy purpose be gratified by an ntc-na-
tonal agreement?
8. II the half civilized condition of
China and India Is due to the free ctinas.
OF silver. why enlarge the use of silver
IN the United States by an international
agreement and destroy our civilization?
L. III England's greatness is due and ow-
ing to the single gold standard, why
should silver be restored by international
asreement and the wheels Of progress ard
Industry be turned backward?
