history Of this country.
Ever since 1924, says the Tribune,
he Party that has carried two Of the
.hrce great States Of Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana IN thc October cIc9
has invariably elected the prcsi,
lent in November.
II we are not mistaken, the Demo
cratic Party had control Of all three
Of these States before the October cleo
tons in To, and therefore the leading
in the Radical Party must have
seen the baud writing on the wall and
realized that their overthrow was incV-
unless something could hc done
to avert the calamity. These were the
circumstances that gave rise to "thc
New Departure policy and the Gree
les movement. which were intended TO
dcmoralize the Democratic Party and
enable the Radicals to accomplish in
an undrrhandcd way that which could
not have been done in a lisir and manly
contest, The un%scrupu'ous c0nspirators
succeeded in their design, and, AZ a
consequence, the M~onopoljsts continue
to swindlr the people out Of ten hun.
drcd million dollars per aanum through
the protective tariff policy; the bond.
holders get about II hundred million
per annun in gold as interest on the
bonds, when :hc bonds themselves
ought to be paid Off Immediately in
grecnbacks. in accordance with the
| contract which vas made with the
bOndhOlders at the time the bonds
were issued; the men who own and
control the National Banks opcral,
with n capital which is not subject t.
taxation; and s0ulless and hCarlIess
railroad corporations will continue tC
take advantage Of the corruption OF
Radical Congress to obtain uncoE
scionablc subsidies from the Govern
mcnt, both in land and money.
No wonder that capitalists are up
posCa to a change in the Administra
ton.
They know that the success Of tht
Democratic Patty would result in the
overthrow Of mOnopolies, the down
fail Of the iniqultous National banking
! system, the payment Of the bonds II
grccnbacks, and II stern refusal to- sub
sidize corporations for any purpose
Hence capith has been used and viii
be used to pcrprtuate the power Of tho
Radical Party. Newspapers AVA pub
lie men have been and will be corrupt,
ed and bribed to worship the golden
calf. Everything will be Gonc that
can be done 90 create discussion in the
Democratic Party. And therefore We
would impress upon the minds of tI(
people the doctrine Of the "sairty o.
dislrust.' Let Us put no confidence II
those who do not belong to our pojIt
ical household and show thcil faith 10y
their works. And let us look with suS
piCiOn upon every project which mhj
produce G~isaHcCtiOn in our Party. Nc
matter how plausible u scheme ma,
appear which is proposed for our con
sidcra.iOn and acceptance, let as in
Quirc, first, into the political ante
ccdrn.s Of the men who are at til

by which those men are ~actuatcl all

happiness Of the people cannot be pre-
NOTED far better through the inotr'
mentality Of Jefcrsonion Dcmocrnc
than in any other way.
