The chief topic of discussion was the
visit of Mr.. Bryan to ST. Paul, and ar
rangementS were made perfecting the
programme for his entertainment. John
NJ. Townley thought the papers had not
given the visit of Mr.. Bryan enough
publicity, and moved that Col. Holcomb
be instructed to put advertisements in
all the papers, giving notice that he
was to speak at the Peoples church.
Resolutions were reported back to the
meeting from the committee on reSOlu
tons some time ago denouncing the
ST. Louis platform. They were quite
lengthy and set forth the bimetaliic
theory at length. They were adopted.
Exception was taken to certain edi
tCrials published in q ST. Paul paper,
Which compared Bryan with Fitz-
simmons, and the cartoons which had
been drawn of Mr.. Bryan. There was
mere talk about the newspapers, then
the discussion reverted into other chan
nels.
The banquet in Minneapolis was
talked over and nearly every member
of the union signified his intention Of
league will go up this morning and
spend the day in Minneapolis, as Mr..
Bryan is to speak twice there.
DR.. S. 0. Pine, chairman of the meet
ing, stated that if all the members Of
the league would meet at the Ryan
hotel tomorrow, thev could go over
to Minneapolis in a body. The meeting
adiCurned after Louis Nash had intro
duced the following resolution, which
was adopted, setting forth the position
of bimetallists upon the policy of the
present administration upon the money
question.
Resolved, We, the members of the st.
Paul Bimetallic union believe that money good
enough for the soldier should be and is good
enough for the bondholders. bankecs and
brokers, who risked nothing more than their
credit in behalf of the preservation of the
Union, and being firmly convinced that the
policy OF the present administration, as out
lined in the message of President Mckinley
and Endorsed by Secretary Gage, as to add to
the burden of country's debt, while de-
creasing the means of liqudating same by
the retirement Of the national currency, and
the substitution thereof of national bank
notes based on interest bearing bonds; -.
Resolved, That in the opinion of this or
ganiZation the government has no right, con-
stitutionally or otherwise. to forfeit it's con-
troll over the currency of the country in favor
and, be it further
Resolved. That the government shall at all
times take advantage of it's option to redeem
ing coin obligations in gold or silver and
shall always redeem silver certificates in sill
yer at the time of their presentation thus
obvating the necessity for further bond issue.

feeling has been caused by the fact
that the committee Is charging an ad-
mission. 1t explains, however, that
this is necessary in view of the fact
that the association committee has to
pay $3.50 for the church and there are
other expenses which make the holding
of an open meeting impracticable
