It is stated, however, that the paramount business of the meeting will be to arrange details for a convention of silver leaders throughout the United States with a view to inaugurating a comprehensive organization. It is argued that want of organization and want of funds were the two causes of the defeat’of silver. in November, and that the evil of disorganization at least can be remedied by -beginning preliminary work at once.
