Continuing his presentation of the de-
STABILITY of an international agreement
which had been digressed from TO re-
fer to the Secretary of the treasury
Wolcott said:
whatever difference of opinion may
exist as to the ability of this country
alone to maintain the parity between
silver and gold, there is no quesuoh
that the concurrence of other natlons
would help and not hinder the cause
of bimetallism in the United states,
and efforts to secure 1t ought to receive
the cordial support of every cltlzen VINO
is opposed to gold monometallism. IN
ternational bimetallism is not mytn'
a chimera- The people of Europe are
even as we are, struggling TO Keep
their heads above water, and seeking
blindly for that which may make 1or
prosperity and for progress.
Much of the recent Legislation IN
Europe looking to the increase or goid
holdings and the depreciation OF silver
finds its origin in the exigencies Oh
situation where readiness for war is the
paramount necessity. There is hardly
a statesman in Europe who belives the
last word has yet been said upon the
question of the reconciliation of silver,
and hardly one would not welcome an
effort to settle the question lnterna-
tionaIIy. Only a few days ago, just
before Christmas, in debate in the
French Chamber, NJ. Meline again de-
cIared from the tribune that the French
Government was as one with the
United States on the question of bimet-
allism. In the face of such declara-
ton. it is as cowardly to abandon hope
as it is false to talk about failure. In
ternational bin1etallism is to the gold
monometallism a stumbling block and
to the silver monometallism foolish
ness. hut it is nevertheless splendid
possibility; its accomplishment would
be the greatest blessing that could be-
fall our people, and to achieve 1t we
might well afford to sink for the time
the hostilities of party and the bicker-
ings of the factions.
