It was during the presentation and t e soulstirring strains of "Dixie and c ,e booming of the German Artillery's i nnon that the monument was un- a )iled. Thirteen young ladies, repre nting the organizations in the county, c Bre assigned to pull the ribbons which i leased the covering over the bronze Idier. As the mantel fell from the onze there was a mighty burrah, bich went to-add to the roar of the nnon. There were none but expres )ns of admiration when the monu ent was exposed to tull view.

Tillm xn, of this State, was chairman is submitted to and adopted by the lati 3imetalite Conference at St. Luls, Mo.i Ve. your committee, respectfully re. )ort the following resolutions for youi .onsideration: . Whereas, The producing, manufactur. ng, mercantile financial, transportatior md other business interests of the Jnited States are paralSzed by a patent md universally contessed lack of suf1l. .ient actual money to meet the requir. neut of legitimate trade; and, Wh2reas We believe iu giving full and ,qual legal-tender power to every dollat >earing the stamp of the Government vhich alone gives a money value; and, Whereas, The gold and silver pro. luced in the mins of United States are iecessary for the requirments of the ountrv coin, It is essential that Congress ake such action relative to the coinage f the two money metals, as will restore ilver to the positioa it held in 1873; nd, Whereas, The present deplorable ondition of the producing and all other Adustrial and commercial interests is he legitimate fruit of a vicious financial, vstem, established by and maintaineh i tne interests of a plutoracy whicd breatens our liberties; and Wne eas, United action is necessary ietween the parties to any common in. erests to occure import,ant, and lasting esults; and, Whereas, By geographical position, iversity ol God aiven agricultural, in uistrial and other natura capabilities nd resources, the Weeriter and South un States and Territtories of the United tates are happily itted for mutual in ercourse and dependence, responding like to the same beneficent or detri acutal influencei and eflects, whether 3gislative, flinancial or commercial; it is he sense of this convention that in view 'f these faces of' the continued flagrant i8reL ard of the vital interests of the reat producing States by the dominant alluenced in national centera, financial (d poitical, that a closer alliance be ween the inhihitants of the We3t and outh is imperatively demanded for the rpose of mutuil protection and ad ancement aloug all legitimate lines. Ve assert. that while this is true of the outhern and Western b'ates, it is also rue; that the manufacturing States of ic East cannot enjoy prosperity, while he South and West, are depressed and re not provided with the money with rhich to purchase the product of their itories; and we declare that all materi I matters whicti effect the general pros erity of our country, the beveral States re and must of necussary be interdepen ant; alnd, Whereas, The coinage of silver upon ic basis herein demanded has repeated , been invited and 's conceded to be ecessary to the upbuilding of trade lation of incalculable inagnitude be veen the United S ates and our sister epublics of North and South Am( rica. is therefore Reso:ved, That we demand the free na uilimi;ed coinaco of silver at the ttablished ratio ofr 16 1o 1, givin t0 such )in equal terder, powers with Lold; Seco!- d- That v e are unalterabiy op sed to the repea! of t.he so -calledl herman law, except by the passage of law p)roviing for the free lnd( unhl itedl coinnge ofsilver at LLe established tin of 16 to I. Third-That, our Representat,ives in ongress instruct the chief exccutive to tue a call for an early con vention of all tions interested in and favorable to e free coinage of silver at the ratio of t,o 1 for the purpose of establishing >ser commercial and uinancial relations th them. Fourth-That the total amonut of 1(d now in existence or capable of pro ction under the stimulus of its in sased1 value is totally inadequate to I)ply L,he demands of the world for >ney, and the adoption of the igle gold standard will re hi, in universal bankruptcy and ruin d we declare that such action on the rt of our Government would be a fla ant violation of the Constitution of a United States, in that it would Im ic all existing contract and double tbe liations of all debtors, and we de Lre it to be the dluty of ail patriotic izens to resist in the court,a and at ballot box, its adioption and enforce mts, it adopted. Fifth-That we are opposed to the :ther issue of Government bonds, andi clare that the real purpose of the pro sed issue of bonds is the perpet.uation the national banking system to which are unalterably opposed for the rea a that it enables a few ielfish indivld ls at their pleasure to contract or ez ad the volume of t,he cnrrency to the sat injury of the masses; and we de mud a financial system which will prne nt the congestion of money in the ancial center of the East. Sixth-That we urge the speedy im Dvement by the National Goveanment all the great waterways and fparticu ly those which drain the vast agricul ~al region of t,he South and West, and invite the active cooperation of the iat mercantile interest, In securing the ~ation of more direct, routes to t,he san, in order t,hat cur product,a may ich the markets of the world at a min* im cost. Seventhb-That we send greetIngs to 3 Representatives and Senators in *ngress who have stood by their rdges made before election and are atending for the rights and interests the people who elected them. We ink them in the name of the Ameri libert,y, and we hold in undlying con apt, those who seek to betray us and ike this country a financial dependen. of Great Britain. H IH.
