did. 1t was joint game. SO well trained
had we become that the news of twenty or
fifty negroes being slaughtered by Demo-
Gratis would rally all that party to the support
Of its candidates, while the Republicans
would in like manner rally to their standard
bearers. These standard bearers charged
each other with bribery, and all manner of
corruptions in and out Of office; and have
they not proven it? The difference was only
in the opportunity and not in the honesty
of the man; and in that see the same Sia-
mese twins again! But they will fight, so
did the twins. The principal leaders are
both in favor Of specie basis, although
they must know there are not ten cents in
specie that the government or the banks
could hold against the demand from Europe,
on which to place one dollar Of paper, if
that paper was issued in proper amount to
do the business of the country They have
proven that they have control Of all the pa
pers or nearly so of the State, by prevent
ing general knowledge getting out
through these papers to the people Of this
State, that there has been forming an indie
pendent, National party, by large conven-
tons which have had two or three National
meetings, besides several State conventions
that several Congressman have been elected
on that issue. Besides nearly all the states
have Independent organizations in direct
opposition to the plan Of legislation in
which majority of these old shysters have
been engaged in. Why have these two old
parties kept this thing in the background?
Because the Independents stand up boldly
demanding a just and fair administration
for the benefit of the whole country, and
| arc opposed to all class legislation whereby
| a few can be benefited at the expense Of the
| many. Such system, once adopted, would
drive many skalawag that is too lazy to
| work. or afraid to steal to the poor house.
| Last fall, in Indiana and Ohio, the Demo
Gratis partly sided with the Independents,
thereby getting some State officers, and
representatives elected, and then PAID the
Independents, as they should have done for
being fooled by them by electlng United
States Senator in opposition to all their prln-
ciples Ohio carried the State IN favor OF
Democracy by a similar trick, and now has
adopted the Independent platform IN part.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania succeed
ed in their election in the same way. These
things go to prove the only principles these
old leaders put forward, is such as they
think will keep them in office Only be-
hold the joint effects and evidence 0. Twin
ship in the support Of W. S. King, and the
late open consumation Of union under the
head of Pioneer Press. Democrats ano
Republicans behold your old heads. now Of
fering Mr.. Fisher, the old head of the De
mocracy for Republican governor. INT
talk of time honored principles could only
be equalled by singing salms over dea'
horse.
Now, let all speak out who are in favor o
a New, Independent party, Anti-Monopol,
in full which will not suffer itself to be 1u'
or controlled in any manner. by either 0
these old parties. For one, | must say tina
from all | can learn from the people, the.
are ripe for new deal; and surely the con
dition of the country demands 1t. Spea
out and let that class that makes all, an
feeds all, take hand in the management
our own interests, and let it be distinct
understood that the SO per cent. compose
of the various working classes intend tn
government shall be run as much to tnei
interest as any other. Speak out. Their
is no time TO be lost.
Yours,
JOSEPH GOAR.
