WHY If FAVORS THE GOLD STANDARD Effect of the Address of Secretary Carlisle. WILL MAKE A STRONG FIGHT Special from a Staff Correspondent. MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 24.—It is the verdict of thinking men of all classes that the sound money convention, which ad- journed last night, has left an impression upon southern affairs and politics’of a most important and lasting character. Even the free silver men in the business element here admit that it was a remarkable and im- portant affair. Any one looking over that assemblage of nearly 600 accredited dele- gates, observing the character and intelli- gence of the men and realizing that they represented the conservatism and business interests of a great section, would realize the momentousness of the occasion. Far from being mere capitalists and bankers, they actually adopted a resolution depre- catory of national banks. The convention came out squarely and un- equivocally for the maintenance of the gold standard until an international agree- ment for the use of silver is reached; op- posed not only free coinage, but also so- called bimetallism; favored modifications of the national banking system and insisted upon the parity of all American money. The business interests of the south repre- sented in the convention have aligned themselves firmly and unmistakably with the sound money principles of the north. President Cleveland's financial policy was approved with tumultuous applause. “Read it again,” shouted a delegate, when the applause following the first reading of the Cleveland indorsement subsided. It was read again, and again the audience thundered its approval. The work of the Reform Club of New York in behalf of sound money was in- eorsed by resolution. Sound money leagues were ordered to be formed in every south- ern community. Aloof From the West. “Thank God that the southern states have not broken away from our old alignments and followed the rotten borough states of the west,” said Congressman Patterson in a speech closing the convention. “We can never join issues with the people of the western silver states and continue to share in the control of the destinies of this na- tion. We must hold aloof from them.” This sentiment was echoed in rounds of applause. There was practically no opposi- tion to the gold standard movement in the convention. In the session of the commit- tee on resolutions some timid members cautioned against advocating extreme gold monometallism, but did not raise any vigor- ous opposition. There was not a murmur of opposition in open convention. Only five men opposed indorsing the Reform Club of New York, and this was the only intima- tion in open session of the presence of any one but out-and-out gold standard men. The actual business of the convention was short, sharp and to the point. There were no trimmings upon this portion of the affair. Secretary Carlisle made a pro- found impression upon the people by his speech. It was the subject of praise and commendation in all the gatherings and in the hotel lobbies. In the evening a telegram was read_from Pensaccla, Fla., demanding “the free and unlimited ‘circulation of Secretary Car- lisle’s speech.” The convention ordered the speech printed for public distribution, and Congressman Patterson’s speech will go with it. Congressman Catchings of Mississippi, who presided over the meeting, expressed his opinion to the writer today that the re- port of this convention will prove of in- calculable benefit to the south and the spread of sound money ideas. He thinks the movement will ultimately wipe out the free silver boom in this section, and swing the southern states into line for safe cur- rency. Congressman-elect Spencer of Mis- sissippi, who beat Gen. Hooker, was at the convention, and has come out for sound money. -At the time of his election it was generally supposed he was a silver man. Congressman: Clarke Alabama was a delegate, and placed Ben Catchings in nomination for permanent chairman. The immediate result of the convention will be the organization of a’ virile fight against free coinage in every community. “From this time on we are a party mili- tant,” said Gen. Catchings to the writer. There were present at the convention a number of men from New York, Chicago and Cincinnati, who had come here with unprejudiced minds for the express pur- pose of studying the affair from a non- partisan standpoint. They are professional observers of political movements, and their unanimous opinion is that the importance of this convention cannot be over-esti- mated. The resolutions adopted by the conven- tion are as follows: . Declaration of Principles. 1, Believing a uniform and certain stand- ard of value necessary to the agricultural, commercial and industrial development and prosperity of our common country, we fa- vor the maintenance of all our money, whether gold, silver or paper, on a parity, to the end that each dollar, whatever may be its composition, shall have equal pur- chasing and debt-paying power with every other dollar. 2. Profiting by the experience of Wash- ington, Jefferson and Hamilton, and the teachings of the great students of mon- etary science from the time when John Locke wrote to the discussion of the pres- ent day, we accept the truth of the prin- ciple now universally recognized and ap- plied in the commercial worki, that the bi- metallic standard cannot be maintained where the ratio fixed by law for the free coinage of gold and silveg does not corres. pond with the marked ratio of the two metals; and that wherever and whenever the legal or coinage ratio varies from the market or commercial ratio to any appre- ciable extent, the dollar, whether of gold or silver,which thereby becomes more valu- able as bullion than as money, will go to a premium and retire from circulation. 3. At this time there is no country in the world which maintains the bimetallic standard, and neither is there any country where the free coinage of silver obtains which is not on a silver basis. Each coun- try, on account of its inability to adopt in- dependently any bimetallic standard, must elect for itself which it prefers, the gold or the silver standard. We therefore favor, in the absence of international co-opera- tion, the retention and maintenance of the existing gold standard. 4. We would rejoice over the adoption of real bimetallism, but in view of the con- tinued fluctuations in the price of siiver in the open market we realize that it is im- possible for the United States independent- ly to adopt a bimetallic standard, and we deem it unwise and hazardous to the best interests of its people for this country to attempt its establishment. We favor the policy of this country standing in the at- titude of readiness at all times to co-oper- ate with the other powers in any effort they may inaugurate looking to the adop- tion of true bimetatlism, but in the mean- time and until successful co-operation is assuréd to maintain inviolate its existing standard of value. 5. We favor the retention, as part of our money, of the silver now coined,and in order to give a wider field for the use of silver, we favor the coinage of money other than silver and silver certificates below the de- nomination of ten dollars into higher de- nominations, so as to make our entire cir- culation below the denomination of ten dol- lars_ either silver or silver certificates, and to this end the Secretary of the Treasury should be authorized by law to coin from time to time, as the people may require them, silver dollars until the demand for money below the denomination of ten dol- lars is at all times satisfied. 6. We realize that our national banking system was adopted during a period of war and that it is not adapted to existing con- ditions. We therefore favor such legisla- tion as will secure to the people a system of banking surrounded by such safeguards as will at all times furnish them a safe, elastic and sufficient currency for the trans- action of their business.
