particularly important, however, ia the
matter of the national ownership of rail-
roads. And here let there be no mistake.
The peoples party are neither anarchists
nor robbers. The railroads would have to
be purchased of their owners at a price to
be agreed upon. say the assessed value
which the railroad officials have made oath
to for the purposes of taxation.

counties and municipalities do the same

script be issued to pay the expense of con-
struotion, that can be redeemable in pay

would be glad to take such script but wnat

All our old ideas on the fnance and even

through the union with them Of the indus
drial workers in the cities. The western
and southern states will not alone help in
these alleged results, but the state of New
