Bimetallism and Nature in the Kansas City Speech
W H Harvey argues that bimetallism using gold and silver provides a more stable currency than single metal systems. He cites dual metals offering relief when one tightens supply and stresses two eyes two ears and dual body parts as natural support for the two metal money concept. The speech notes elasticity in currency from using both metals and avoids demonetizing either.
