Gorman, of Cincinnati, was chosen permanent secretary. Thu resolu tions protesting against the action of the Chicago convention ns unwise, unpatriotic and undemocratic, seeking to divide the peo ple into classes. The crowning foily ol the Chicago Convention was declared to be the debasing of our standard of value by the free coinage of sliver, "Not at a commercial ratio to gold as has heretofore been done, but on the bold and false assumption that gov ernment can, by Its net, create value where, by the universal sense of mankind, such value does not exist, thus proposing to wrong all I'lastes by coining money debased lu quality nnd fluctuating iu value." The resolutions declared for the mainten ance of the present gold dollar us the Ameri can standard of value and the use of sliver ns money, and Its colnnge and circulation In such quantities only us can be kept at parity with gold.
