<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bill H., post: 7844135, member: 85881&quot;]John Sherman also served as McKinley&#039;s Secretary of State during his first term. I&#039;m reading a Bio on McKinley which I am enjoying thoroughly and recommend if you like historic Bio&#039;s &quot;President McKinley&quot; by Robert Merry. The book also talks about the late 19th century fight over the Gold and Silver standard and &quot;bi-metalism&quot;. Both the 1896 and 1900 presidential elections between McKinley and William Jennings Bryan were decided, in large part, due to the two precious metals. I too just retired and am enjoying reading and tending to my collection. God bless, sir, &quot;don&#039;t get yer dobber down&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
