Our debts, both public and private, have been contracted on that basis, and com- mon honesty requires that they shall be repaid accordingly. The cry of the Chi cago convention for the free and unlim- ited coinage of silver at the false ratio of 16 to 1 attacks our existing standard, threatens us with wholesale repudiation, panio and ruin. This cry is snpported | by the claim that the government is al] powerful and by its mere fiat can dou ble the value of silver and make and keep the silver dollar the full eq of the gold. Some men honestly believe in | this miraculous power, but what thoy really want is not free coinage of silver, but free coinage of paper. “Others favor this ratio an easy | way of paying debts.
