To the Editor of the Beo—Sir: In reply to youre of March 13th and.of April 7th, will say that I am favorable to the f coinage of silver, Yet I must view point, If I understand your question cor~ views “upon the policy of pledging the vention to a silver man on a silver platform.” saan To this proposition, all things considered, I am constrained to say that I sincerely doubt the propriety of such a pledge, and by way of explanation, will further say that, according to my judgment, protection is now and should be the paramount issue of the coming campaign. Upon this great subject our party ia practically a unit. With that fact in view, we who differ from our brother Republicans on the silver question should: be willing to accept the situation after doing our best in thas regard, but without going so far that our acts may jeopardize the main chances of sevuring & Republican adminstration. Even though we-had the power, would it be wise for us to force this isene upon our party at this time, knowing that) a large percentage of them are so strongly opposed to 11? In other words, should we, if we had the power, attempt to force upon members of our party a proposition abnoxious ‘to-them, which would compel them to atultify themselves or bolt the ticket ? Undoubtedly Congress is the proper brauch of our Government to deal with this important question and should be left anttammelled by the Chief Executive.in that respect, and it should be compelled to assume the responsibility, Therefore, 1 would suggest thata plank be inserted in the National ‘platform, pledging our candidates to sccept the verdict uf Congress, and also that he will neither directly nor indirectly interfere nor attempt to influence its acts upon this particular question, It ‘we could be sure-of this fact, I would willingly trust its fate to that body and accept the result without a murmur, and if our candidate will give our people that pledge, it is all we ought: to ask of him; and, it does seem to.me that our opponents should be willing to trust and accept the mentioned. Certain it is that if this course could be adopted, it would relieve our candidate from all embarrassment so far as he is officially. concerned, and put this well understood issue where it belongs, to wit; In the legislative branch of our Government, through which our people are compelled to Again, if the people of this State are in favor of the free coinage proposition, it seems to me that strong resolutions on that line would serve to guide our delegates, as well as serving notice on the convention that the Republicans of California are in favor.of that doctrine.
