People's Pilot, Volume 3, Number 15, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 September 1893 — “Silver Lunatics.” [ARTICLE]

“Silver Lunatics.”

The most illustrious statesmen of the republic were all in favor of silver. Read their names: George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Robert Morris, Albert Gallatin, James Madison, John Adams, James Monroe, Andrew Jackson, William H. Crawford, Daniel Webster, Abraham Lincoln, U. &. Grant, Thaddeus Stevens, Oliver P. Morton, James G. Blaine, John A. Logan, and a hundred others we might name. They were all for silver as part of the money of the country. Were they “lunatics?”—N. Y. Recorder.
