WHAT GENERAL GRANT SAID:
“With Free and Unlimited Coinage of Gold and Silver we will Clear Away our Public Debt Before the Close of the Century.” These Were Uttered by the President Just After He had Signed thp Bill Demonetizing Silver. In Other Words, He did not Know that the Bill which He Signed had for its Object the Destruction of One-half of the Debt-Paying Money of the Country. Yet Wall Street Wolves Tell Us the Demonetization Act was not Sneaked Through Congress by John Sherman and his Co-conspirators from England.
