PRESIDENT mckinley sald In speech
4 10 New York, January 10Th, nothing
sshould ever tempt us-nothing will
lover tempt us-to scale down the sacred
debt OF the nation through legal
'technicality. Whatever may be the
Language OF the contract, the United
Estates will discharge all OF its obliga-
tions in the currency recognized as
the best throughout the civilized world
at the times of payment. Nor will we
ever consent that the wages OF labor
.-,or its fugal savings shall be scaled
Cdown by permitting payment In dollars
gof less value than the dollars accepted
cas- the very best in every enlightened
nation OF the earth. 1t will not suffice
ldor citizens nowadays to say simply
SHAT they are in favor OF sound money.
oThat is not enough. The peoples pur-
pose must be given the vitality of pub
wlic law. Better an honest effort with
failure than the avoiding OF so plain
and commanding duty"

eThe free-silver orators who insisted

vance without the free coinage OF
.,ver would do well to look up the
ices at which wheat sold in Chicago
l,t week before they attempt to use
aeir old manuscript in the campaign
1898. Wheat at 81 10 in a country

on the farmers 10 the last Presiden-
