Debate on silver coinage ends with Horr challenging Harvey
Horr presses the argument that free silver coinage at 16 to 1 would not fix value and would harm laborers while shifting power to money changers. Harvey defends stability, cites employment figures and global silver use and asserts his figures are vetted. The exchange centers on whether the United States alone can set and sustain a silver gold ratio.

Resolutions thank the Illinois club and officers as questions are answered.
