Ingersoll preached from a pulpit and to a church audience at Chicago Sunday. He came in response to an invitation from Dr. John Rusk’s Militant church.
Inconsistency or Insincerity.
, One of the arguments of the gold bugs against the free coinage of silver is that it will cheat the creditor out of 60 cents on the dollar. They say that you can’t legislate value Into silver. Yet, in the same speech they say they favor the free coinage of silver with the consent of other nations. That is, they are willing to rob the creditor pro* ▼ided they can secure the consent of other nations to do so. This .position shows insincerity on the face of it. They know that it is impossible to secure an international agreement for the restoration of sliver. They know that we never had such an arrangement, and they know further that there is no necessity for such an arrangement. With free silver the United States could capture the bulk of Great Britain’s foreign trade, and she would no more enter into an international agreement than she would think of presenting to this government a billion dollars worth of her securities. This country will never prosper until Ks buries the old political fossils who have drifted so far away from the people that they can’t tell a live issue from a baked clam.
