Editor blasts Steele Ozone on Sherman law and silver coinage
William H. Standish vents at editorial critique, arguing the 1873 act stopping silver coinage was enacted via stealth and conspiracy. He cites Congressional records and press coverage, accuses editors of ignorance or corruption, cites Paris 1867 conspiracy, and calls for restoration of the 16 to 1 silver standard.
