follows:
Whereas, malicious and vindictive at
lacks have been given publicity by the
Rev w. T. Roberts, we, the students
of William and Mary College, do hereby
repudiate the scurrlous attacks made on
the college. its president ana the vice
president of the Board of Trustees, which
attacks are the product of certain eff
forts on the part OF President -.ier to
remove certain influences detrimental tc
the welfare of William and Mary stu
dents.
AS regards the statements of said at
tacks concerning President Iylers view
Of the race question, we, the students,
who have attended his lectures on "Nir-
ginia and American History, do hereby
certify that in all his discussions Of ra-
cial topics he has most emphatically ex-
pressed himself in accord with the South
ern sentiment in regard 20 racial ..~alit,
Iniscegenation and mixed school; anG we
do Furthermore certify that the charge OF
his being in sympathy with and encour-
aging such social conditions is false.
AS regards the aspersions on the honor
OF William and Mary, We have nothing
to say In regard to the present status
and success of the college, we would
state that there are ,.iis session more
candidates for the Bachelors degree
than at any time since the reorganiza-
ton in 1855; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we, the students, 90 re-
sent the said attacks, and do express
our unbounded confidence in, lid admlra-
ton for, the present regime OF William

When the reading was concluded, Mr..
Ball, of Texas, gave notice that he would
offer the Kansas City platform as sub
stitute. This drew replies from Mr.. Fttz-
gerald, of New York. and Mr.. McDer-
mont. Of New Jersey, both of whom pro-
tested against the injection OF the fnan-
cial issue into the Democratic councils.
| We can never win declared Mr. Fftz-
gerald, "if we do not discard the heresy
of free silver"
I'VE can never win retorted Mr. Ball.

Gratis support the National PLATFORM OF
the Democratic party.
After further sharp exchanges Mr..
Richardson succeeded in quellihg the dis
turbance by renewing his motion to refer
all resolutions to a special committee OF
twelve, to be appointed by the chairman
of the caucus. This motion prevailed.
The following resolutions were then IN
troduced:
By Representative Finley, of South Car
DINA: Resolved. That the Hon. James
D. Richardson and the Democratic mem
hers of the House Committee on fiuiss.

them, constitute a committee to have

sentatives. except as ordered BY a caucus

ciples and policy set forth in the last

MONEY STANDARD.
BY Representative Fitzgerald, of New
York: Resolved, That we oppose any
interference with the existing standard
of values. That question has been SET
tied by repeated and overwhelming 30.
pressions of popular sentiment. and rnttSS
be definitely closed by the statutory rec
ignition OF gold as tho sole standard. The
Democracy. of New York has the very
greatest respect for their brethren. who
for many years sought the establishment
of a bi-metallic standard: but thesinter-F

above all. the interest of the wage-earp-

standard of value be uncertain.
