Chandler on silver not a gold victory says McKinley win
A lengthy letter by William E. B. Chandler, senator for New Hampshire, argues that the 1896 election did not prove silver monetization, urges European bimetallists to continue campaigning, and critiques Bryan’s free coinage stance while supporting a measured, market-driven approach to silver and gold parity. Chandler contends a decisive, coordinated policy with McKinley is needed to advance American interests and protect industry.
