What is a areenbacker.

II VIC rightly understand The principles O

a government BY the people and for the pee

the principles wo have to do with. They
believe that tho ~mtjority are always right.
Tboy believe that IL is the best leglGlation
which beuelts tho greater number. They
believe that labor 10 the source OF all wealth.
They believe that our legislators arc our
public servants elected to serve tao pcopls.
They belieyesthat tho government should re.
eserve the right TO issue all money. They
believe that money Is simply a means of ex-
change and has no intrinsic value within
Itself. They believe in equal rights with
special privilodges to none. They believe
that every honest mar lives by The sweat of
his own brow. They believe that labor
should be protected in the fruits OF its Undue.

They believe in retrenchment in expendi-
tures. Now I would ask all candid thinking
men what is the belief OF a uu} Democrat is
1t not tho Same, what Is the belist Of any hon
est man capable OF discerning betgoen right
and wrong DO he Democrat, Republican,
Greenbacker, National or what else. Ii
believes exactly that same doctrine. SO let
Us understand each other, there lie no party 10
champion that which is wrong, If ihoy 10
they are honestly mistaken, or corrupsly
subsidized. -
There are thousands of good = publIcanp,
thousands OF good Democrats, thbusands al
good Greenbackers who al believe their
party is right and all other parties are wrong,
what is wanting Is open observation-disclosures.
