In a farewell address to the Republican convention in St. Louis Senator Teller defends silver, arguing its principle underpins a sound global financial system. He laments post 1873 depreciation of labor, notes 1906 distress, calls money system key to American welfare and civilization, and urges tolerance for differing views.
The text contrasts two Republican platforms. Eight years earlier they supported bimetallic money with gold and silver and condemned the Democratic administration. In 1998 the party endorsed maintaining the existing gold standard without silver as money.
Williams County in the extreme northwest of North Dakota spans about 4,400 square miles with Missouri River frontage. It reports abundant farming and grazing lands, rich lignite coal beds, workable irrigation, and strong stock-raising prospects. The county claims no debt as of July 1, 1895, with Williston as the county seat on the Great Northern line and a growing local economy.
