Mr. Aldrich declared that the position
taken by the United States and by the Re
publican party is that there is no BIZ
mctallism possible except by the concur
rent action Of the leading commercial ma
tions OF the world and at a ratio that
viii maintain fxity OF values.
Mr.. Baoon-Shan 1 understand from
that statement that the Senator. or the
Conference Committee. thought it desira-
Bile that We should have bimetallism?
Mr.. Aldrich-I have said a hundred times
thar il bimetallism could be obtained IN
der the conditions Of the act Of 1897 and OF
section Il Of this bill I do think it de-
sirable
Mr Bacon-Does the Senator think it de-
sirable from the fact that he thinks the
gold standard is not desirable, if we can
have bmetallisme
Mr Aldrich-I think il is eminently de-
sirable that the United States should say
to the nations Of the world We are on
gold standard and we intend TO remain
solidly on a gold standard until you are
ready TO join US in such an agreement as
viii fix the relative value of the two
metals. That is the position of the Repu5-
iican party. and. so far as | know, of every
member OF IT,
Mr Rscoa-Then the Senator does not
think that The gold standard is the best
standard for this country
Nr Aldrich-The Senator must have
qualifications ii ne wants my Judgment
instead Of his own.
Mr Racon-Regardles of qualifications
and conditions. does the Senator consider
that the gold standard is the best standard
that can be adopted
Mr MdFich--In the absence Of any inter
national agreement. l say that the gold
standard is the best standard. Let me
ask the Senator a question: rs he in favor
Of a silver standard? 90
Mr.. Bacon-I am not I have stated re
peatedly that I was in favor Of the free
coinage OF silver because [ thought that
with free coinage OF silver parity could
be maintained.
Mr. Aldrich-That is a question Of judg-
meut
The dialogue between the two Senator'S
was further prolonged. but with the same
general expression Of views on either side.

Beach & Bowers Great Minstrels.


The Sioux City Daily Tribune has
the following to say of the famous
Beach 4 Bowers minstrels, which
are to appear in this city Wednes-
day evening, August 18th:
A full house was jollied into good
humor by the gags and facial mobil
ity OF Beach & Bowers big black
coons' last night. The curtain
tose on as swell u row of ebony
countenances as ever peered over
the footlights of the Grand. The
whole performance abounded in
good specialties, and the singing
was excellent. There were an es-
pecially good lot of tenors, and
nearly all the songs we're enchored.
Eddie Nixon in 'sMy Georgia Rose"
and Bobbie Beach in 81 m all alone"
were unusually we'll received. The
first part closed with clever farce,
in the Gambling Den, or Goose
town Astonishers. y In part two
gilt-edge minstrelsy and high class
vaudeville were introduced. Lou
Knetzger did some fine juggling
with Indian clubs, Harry Freeman
and Smith brothers, the comic aero
bats, were skilJful. Albert Kitz,
the ''human frog, has been seen
before in the city, and his knotty
contortions and fros lnimicry were
very interesting. The Kenno-La-
Barre trio received heavy applause
for their comic acrobatic and burl-
esque trapeze act. The Van broth.
ers were good in their musical spe-
cialtv act and the closing feature of
the performance, troupe of per-
forming dogs, furnished new and
very enjoyable addition to the usual
run OF minstrel shows.
