Publisher's Summary

David Bennett Hill was an American politician and renowned orator. During Hill’s illustrious political career he served as a US State Senator and the Governor of New York. Hill delivered his "I Am a Democrat and Not a Revolutionist" speech, what is now considered his most famous speech, at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on the 9th of July 1896. The speech took place in the heat of voracious debate regarding the value of silver in the US at the time and its vast ramifications from a political, economic, and public standpoint. This address is key to understanding the economic climate at the time and is valuable in gaining better understanding into other famed speeches on this subject, such as William Jennings Bryan’s Democratic National Convention address.
