SHKRMAN'S BI'KKOIf.
Paui.DINO, Ohio, Aug. 28. Sena
tor Sherman's speech wae devoted
entirely to the silver question. Ho
supported tho present coinage act,
aud said that if congress had pro
vided that all silver brought to Ihe
mint should bo coined Into dollars,
no gold would bo coined, for nn
ounce of gold Is worth more than
sixteen ounces of silver. Gold
would cease to bo money, ami wnild
bo'boarded or oxporled. No man
would bo fool enough to deposit au
ounce of gold for coin ago Into six
teen dollars when, with it, he could
buy enough silver bullion aud havo
it coined without cost iuto twenty
dollars. Free coinage is all nonsense.
Under tho now coinage act, tho
United States is purchasing monthly
more than tho entire product of sil
ver bullion in the United Stotes.and
all this bullion Is represented In our
currency by either silver coin or
legal tender treasury notes. Wo de
pended under this act in tho pur
chase of silver bullion prior to Au
gust 1st, this year, $55,010,821, and
Issued that amount of treasury notes
which aro now In circulation. Wo
thus provided an increase of curren
cy cqti.d to or greater than tho In
crease of business aud population of
tbo United States. One distinctive,
striking feature of this law, Is that
tho United States will not pay for
silver bullion more than Its market
value. Why should we? Nearly
all the silver produced in the United
States Is by rich corporations In n
few now states, and Its production
at the market price is far more prflt
able Ihanany crop of tho farmer.and
yet It Is the demand of the producer
of silver bullion that the United
States should pay 25 per cent, more
than its market value that lies at
the foundation of the difference be-
twecb tho Republican and Demo
cratic party. Tbo tendency of tho
policy of tho present act will bo to
gradually advance tho valuo of sil
ver bullion to its legal ratio with
gold, and, when this is reached,
both metals will bo coined on equal
terms and condition, I believe tho
measure will work out tho most ben
eficial results.
Examining the position taken In
thh canvass by tho Demooratio
party, Senator Slioiman referred to
Ex-l'roiidout Cleveland's utterances
on the silvr question, and said that
whlleClovelaud was president no free
coinage measure was proposed.
President Harrison Is known to en
tertain the name opinions, yet, now,
under strange leadership, (his
scheme to ehango tho standard of
value Is priced Into our atato can
