Goveiw Stone Issues Them! cnts? why do ,ia standard
a Proclamation,
FOR SOLID DELEGATIONS
Gage of Battle Thrown Down to
Gold Standard Men.
.lEITEKSON ClTY, Mo., Mitrcll 10
Governor Stone Is engaged In send
ing out n political circular letter, the
contents of which clearly indicate
thnt there will not be tho slightest
disposition on the part of the radical
silver clement of tho Democracy of
Missouri to make concessions to tho
administration or "sound money"
wing of the party.
''My purpose in sending out this
communication," says tho governor,
in beginning his circular letter, "is to
promote the clfort I am making in
conjunction with others to organize
those Democrats in Missouri who
favor a resolution In our national
platform declaring for tho Immediate
free coinage of silver Into standard
dollars at the ratio of 10 to 1, liud the
nomination of candidates for presi
dent and vice-president who openly
favor that policy. The state conven
tion, select delegates to tho national
convention, will mcet;ntSodalluon
April l.r, next. The county conven
tions, to appoint delegates to the
Hedalla convention, will meet at dif
ferent dates during the latter part of
March and the llrstdaysof April.
Tho dates f6r these county conven
tions will bo tlxed for each county by
Its own committees. My hope and
purpose Is to arouse the Democrats
tho people to tho necessity of going
actively to work to secure the selection
of county delegates to tho Serial lu
convention who arc well known and
earnest advocates of frco sliver coin
age, and who can be Implicitly trusted
to represent their constituencies with
lldelity. 1 bcllovo that a largo ma
jority of I ho Democrats of this state
favor tho free coinage or both gold
and silver; this majority, however,
can not have its way, but will lo over
ridden, if tlie people are inactive, or
If they arc careless or cowardly lu the
selection of tho delegate. 1 write,
therefore, to urgo you, for your Inter
est and for tho good of your party and
country, to take hold of tho work of
organizing our party friends In your
county, and particularly In your own
precinct, with tho view of sending
free-colnago men to your county con
vention, and through that convention
to send the strongest free coinage
Democrats of yourcounty to Sedulla."
Gov. Stono believes that the dele
gates to Chicago should represent tho
state as n whole and should vote as a
unit.
'In this light, " ho says. "I stato
frankly my own position, I shall favor
tho Sedalla Convention sending a
free silver delegation to Chicago. I
shall favor tho selection of two dele
gates from each congrcssconal dis
trict, as has been done heretofore, as
a matter of geographical distributions
but I shall stand with those who will
Insist on every delegate being n pro
nounced advocate of free silver coin
age. I shall take this position be
cause I believe It Is right. lam in
this fight to-win It, If possible, all tint
way up from tho precinct to tho Na
tional Convention. I do not want to
play politics like children play mimic
war, I want to fight as men should
fight In battle, knowing that victory
means prosperity, and defeat disaster.
The delegates to Chicago will repre
sent tho Missouri Democracy. They
go there to voice the sentiment of
this state. They do not go to volco
j simply the sentiment of a district. If
t that were so, then the State Conven-
tlon would have no right to Instruct
them. If a delegate goes simply to
speak for his district, how roultl lm
obey nn Instruction of the State Con-
men want to go as ueiegaiosv is it to

"The Missouri Democracy lias taken

Wo must press resolutely forward If
wo mean to achieve practical results.
It is worse than child's nlny to beat
