Show Referring to ex-Senator Chandler's letter advocating ad-vocating the remonetization of silver at 20 to 1 by a congress of the nations, Mr. Bryan in his Commoner says, "It is refreshing to find a Republican Repub-lican who appreciates the importance of the restoration re-storation of silver even if he does get four points off on the rates." That is not very lofty journalism. Mr. Chandler Chand-ler was an ardent advocate for the restoration of silver when Mr. Bryan was "playing hooky" from school, and he has never changed his mind for one minute since. He was a good silver man when Jones of Nevada and Beck of Kentucky and the other stalwarts were trying to stem the flood that the national banks and bond holders had set in motion to double the value of their bonds and to double the purchasing power of the interest inter-est they were collecting on their bonds. |
