stroys respect for government and law. We
demand that this ring or trust be destroyed,
and restore equal rights to all the people.
We charge that President Cleveland Is the
willing tool or agent of a powerful money ring
which fattens an the subsidies OF the Govern

tiOn aud uses them without the payment OF
interest. contracts the currency to enhance
the value of bonds, and enriches usurers,
while it depresses the price of labor and
properly.
That we favor the nomination of no man for
President who Is personally Interested IN ma
tlonAl banks or the bonded indebtedness OF
the United States, but we demand candidate
who Is free to do justice TO all the people Of
the country-the poor as wei rs the rich.
That the trick of the President and his ad-
House of Representatives on the Beck silver
amendment to the bond purchase bill, equals
the villainy of the secret and fraudulent de-
monetization of silver In 1873.

wage-w0rkers from competition with the
cheap labor of other lands.
".
Resolved, That the policy Of the Govern

by the people through their Representative
in both Houses of Congress. and not by the
President or the money trust, of which he.
either as agent or head is most active in de-
Tending.

vent appropriations for navy and coast de-
fenses, with attempting TO destroy tie pro-
teetiye tariff with eourting the good will Of
other nations at the expense Of the citizens Of
the United States, and with joining the for
eign bondholders to demonetize silver and
destroy the industries of the country, and for
the reduction of the wages of the Mint em-
ployes At Carson. for closing the Carson Mint
when it was not only self-sustaining but Q
source OF revenue TO the Government, for his
contemptuous vetoes of bills for the relief Of
disabled soldiers and sailors, and for failing
to construct the Government building At Car
son as required by law.
