result as a definite verdict in favor of
gold. These utterances increased in

politicians and newspapers privy to the
scheme denounced our fears as I'M

use of catch words and generalities,
succeeded in forestalling any wide
spread comprehension of their designs.
When the convention met a similar in
genuity governed the framing of the
declaration on the money question. It's
essential part was as follows:
The Tempting Bait.
"We are, therefore, opposed to the
free coinage of silver except by in
ternational agreement with the leading
commercial nations of the world, which
we pledge ourselves to promote, and
until such agreement can be obtained
the existing gold standard must be
preserved. All our silver and paper
currency must be maintained at par
ity with gold etc
TT is strange that so manifest an in
sincerity should have deceived anybody.
Clearly, if the gold standard was de-
sirable. the free coinage of silver was
undesirable. However. if the sold
standard was right, free coinage must
be wrong. Nobody could inteliigently
and honestly demand the international
free coinage of silver and at the same
time express such emphatic satisfaction
with the gold standard as an alterna-
tive.
.As a matter of fact. this declaration
was intended as definite assurance
