Dr. \V\ W. I’fcl, Owlet ( Jreen.Tcx.
Ma Doir doctor: Your letter of
lute date cjinie to hand some days
in the history of the govermcnt.
Bo, you nee, that the increase in
the volume of currency has gone on
by other means, aiid jMtssihly hot-
ter, than by the purchasing of sil-
ver. ' 1 ,
My opinion is. that the senate
will not rejieal, unconditionally,
the purchasing danse of the Hher-
mun law. My idea is that the ad-,
ministration recognize* the fact,
that silver must l*e tij held as an
important factor in the money of
this country: that it must he a part
of the redemption money of the
country, not redeemable, but used
as a basis for p iper currency like
gold. 4

thepeople, arising out of the polit
ieal situation; and 1 nn willing tuf
agree there are some ground* for this
feeling. At the same time, I think
that democrats ought to ho Avilling
to give a Democratic ndmini.-tra
Cion an opportunity to respond to
the demands of the people, and re-
deem the pledges which were made
in the last cjuiyas*. I therefore do
not tlftnk that they ought to. Join
the populists in this elrvumragainst
the administration, 'they ought
not to go about thecbunlry making
iutlamatory speeches and assume
that the party is not going to he

1 do not agr«*o with Mr. (llwve-
land on the money question. 1 do
not agree with him in the manner
in which he presented the question
to congress: nor did f agree w ith
lum.in his proel.tmatmn, which he
issued rolling cuugriani toga tin r in
an extra ordinirv se-sion.
All democrats, alike, helieve that
the purchasing clause irf tl»<- Sher-
rSTiin law ought to he repealed.

objection to the free and unlimited-
coinage of silver at the preeont ra-
tio. I think that the ratio ebuht
l>e adjusted .** it ie at present, of
lb to 1; that ia IG grains of silver
should ho worth 1 grain of gold at
the mint, mid coined on that basis/
or at that ral.io. , ,
I am of the opinion that tlvs leg-
islation of thin country will ulti-
mately take that course, with A
view to achieving free and unlimi-
ted coinage at Hi to l,-*or, perhaps,'
a still higher valuation ot silver.
In addition to this, if the . states
should go into the banking busi-
ness—and I would be willing to'
try that experiment—and thcre-
’Tbre voted for thA repeal of the _ id*
pet cent tax mj,the *tate bank ia-
eue-—silver could' ho used as a
fsirtion of Hus redemption fund of
state banks. This would hare a
further tendency to uphold silver
and enhance it* value in the mar-
ket.
y0
You will understand that tmdei'
the constitution of the United
States, each *tute has the authority
to timke silver a legal terulur. Tllfl
constitution says, that no state shall
make anything hut gold and sil-
ver g legal tedder. Jt was evi-
dently-intended to Jcavu with the
states, tlie authority^.to make both ~
metals n jegal tender* If the con- <
•titutiou did not intend to leave
that authority with the states, it
wouhLbave sit id no stuto shall
make any sort of money a -legal
tender: Therefore, it is clear to my
fmind that there ^iy no question"
about the authority of ii state t<»'
make silver a legal tender.
' The populists have no grounds -,
for-coinplaint against the adminis-
tration and the democrats. The
free coinage,’
cannot afford to seek aHilijition
with that party, ’Tor the reason
that they do not believe in metal
money at all—neither'gold nor nil-*
vr;r money. They don’t believe in
auv redemption of ^nouey. Th *y
think that the government ought
to have the authority—and that it
has the authority, to i sue unlimi-
ted quantities of legal tender paper
money—Hat, irrodeemablo paper
money—and that all business
ought-to he transacted ovith that
ch ir:i‘'ter of currency, and that
this currency ought to bo loaned to*
the people upon lands and agricul-
tural productsT
The democrats, therefore, , whor
m

an
unlimited coinage of silver at the
present ratio. It declared for the
coTuagc of I»uh g"l<l and silver, on
equal term*,at #the.mint and the
use of both a* ruonev in thi*. coun-
try; lull it i*li-* declar'd t)i*t the
metal* ought to be of intrinsic;val-
ue, or that coinage ought to be** se-
cured by *u* !i legislation * as it
would bring tb^ir valuation litgc’llu
(t;or by such, cooi»eratl<m uvith.
..•/•- v * ( . .fcuMcrats .Who want
foreign power- a* it would enable _• .
the givcrnmml to proceed with the
* ioiuig* «<? .-iiver without regard to
it* intrinsic /value.
Now, my M a is, that if wo csb-
liot ha ve fr* e c*»:n:ige ami try tlie
ex|*erimenl—ami I ivouWr-W will

that logishiti ui ought to he direct
