There is abundant evidence that General Grant, who signed the bill, did not know that silver was demonetized by it. Mr. Kelley, of your State, who, in 1872, was chairman of the Committee on Coinage, Weights and Measures, stated on the floor of the House, in my hear- ing, that no such thing was talked of or proposed to his knowledge. Still, somebody knew it. Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, had charge of the bill in the Senate and was chairman of the Finance Committee. He undoubtedly knew that the bill in
...effect established the gold stand- ard, but did he understand that the effect would be to increase the value of gold itself and with it all debts, public and private ?
