DR.. Pearson said the conclusions Of the
document must be accepted or else shown
that it is not what it claims 20 be.
He next instanced, in proof Of the divinity
OF Christ, the tulfllmeut OF prophecy in the
performance Of miracles, healing the blind,
raising the dead, curing the sick and the
lame, feeding the thousands, which things
he said were done, not 10 the darkness, but
in the light of day, and in the full gaze of
his enemies.
The next evidence was In the doctrine
that he preached He found the world di-
vided into cliques and clans, Jews and
gentiles, Greeks and barbarians, and he
preached gospel of universal brotherhood
Next in the life that he lived To his in
nocence and purity he had the testimony Of
Plate and Herod and Judas Iscariot, and
even the demons recognized him. Jesus
Christ, DR.. Pearson said, was the only being
tie only character that ever walked this
earth who never committed a blunder,
never made mistake, never did anything
60 be sorry for, nor anything that be
had TO repent Of, nor anything that
his friends ever had TO apologize for him.
His was the only spotless, immaculate and
absolutely perfect life.
Ea'If you assert that Jesus is not the Son of
God how do you reconcile these fsctsF the
preacher asked.
The fulfllment of the prophecies, the doc
trine he preached, the life he lived form
conclusive proof that Jesus was the Son of
God.

1t is said that figures cannot lie
and this is doubly true when quoted
from an official under oath, and vet
if these figures are permitted to tell
the tale of the republican iinancier
are liars on every hand, for they say
one thing and the secretary's figures
say another.
With SIG per capita of gold and
silver in 1880 and Sl.65 in 1866, how
dare any sane or honest man say that
free coinage of silver would en,l:,nger
commerce? If we have even s. per
capita, of gold and silver now in
circulation we would haye in round
numbers the sum of $50. OGO, 900
and if We hal free coinage Of silver
the same rs We did III 1850, and with
the increased supply of the metals,
let us suppose that the gold and
silver per capita would run up to s.,
What fearful shortage there would
still DC to meet the demands of
trade. Let us suppose (and it is only
II supposit;on), that free coinage would
put in circulation the sum of SO per
capita, which is an impossibility, there
would still he needed 35 dollars per
capita in legal tender notes to carry
on business. % dollars per capita in
gold and silver would he just one bill
lion six hundred and twenty five mil
lion dollars Isl ,625, 0OO. OOO), only half
enough casl, to fill the channels Of
trade with medium of exchange.
The fact is the devilish old party
roostcrs have lied in order to keep
the people blinded, and their hope to
continue the ignorance of the people
hy telling them lies in order to pre-
vent them f,om investigating If
absolute free coinage Of silver should
be u>hered in and all the silver on
earth was coined there would not be
one thousandth part in circulation
among the natives as IS needed. So
far as our nation is concerned, if all
We could get Of silver and gold was
coined, we would not half as much
money as we need, besides it would
tic Il burden to the commercial world.
With the old party forty years out of
date ideas Oh the redemption, there
can never be any thing but hard
times and worse ahead as the popu-
lation increases. Anything short of
$50 per capita will fail to meet the
demands Of business men and pro
ducers, and since 80 times 65. O0O. O00
is $3.50. 000, 900, no one need fear

They Are Twins OF ln,qu.ty.

That the two old parties have be-
come hopelessy corrupt has time :nd
again been demonstrated to any un-
biased person who has not become
wholcy blind by party prejudices.
The recent vote on the silver bill
is conclusive evidence that both the
two old parties are intent upon it
that no legislation should be had in
the interest of the producing classes.
The Democratic party, pretending to
have some reform proclivitics, has on
every occasion shown itself to be the
ally and willing tool Of the plutocracy
and of the money power Of Wall
street. 1t fe,gned to attack the part,
in power and the special privileges
granted by it; yet has secretly given
aid and abctted the republican party
in its nefarious work Of plundcrln.
the people. What measure has there
ever been before congress, which tend
ell to give the masses relief, that did
not receive the united opposition of
both the democrat and republican rep
resentatives? And what measure has
there ever been before that body that
sought to plumber the people that did
not likewise receive the combined
support Of these twins Of lniquity.
The free coinage Of silver is the
least OF the demands set forth by the
oppressed people Of this country, and
would not: if carried, have given any
permanent relief to the debtriddcn
agriculturlsts. 1t is the Immediate
relief which free coinage would give,
by aiding to the volume Of money.
that has enlisted their support. Ii
then, the monied interests within the
demo-repubIican party can thus
divide it on questions Of SD l..t!c i'm
pOrtancc as that CT free coinage of
silver, what will be the influence Of
the money power when the people
shall, through their representatives,
propose legislation to destroy "the
power OF money to Cypress. 1t is
Ier:ec.ly plain that conspiracy exist,
between the two old parties and that
by opposing one we oppose the other
How much longer will the people

Call for Congressional Convention.

l, realizing that 4 Representative
who will accept a nomination from
either the.Rcpublican or the Demo-
cratic parties, cannot be relied upon
to legslate for the producing people,
whatever pledges lie may make to
secure their vote. Their first allie
g:ance is due to The PARTY under
whose banner they train. The eau
Gus dictum of that part, is their man
ual and the, must follow it. The De-
mocratic and Republican parties are
the servile agents Of the Plutocrats
WHO furnish .'thc grease to run the
two machines. The duty of these
agents begins and ends when they
have registered the will of their prin-
clpal.
therefore call Peoples conven-
ton to meet at Macon, Mo-, Wednes-
day, June 1st, 1892. at 10 o'clock 4.
H., for the purpose Of nominating a
candidate for congress for the First
Congressional District The basis of
representation is three for each coun-
ty in said district.
All persons who in,lorsc the de-
mands of the st. Louis Conference
are invited to take part in local meet
ings called to select these delegates
and this invitation ought to include
every friend Of the producing people
in this district.
Said Convention will in its discre-
ton ais" perfect organization for the
district and recommend four dele
gates for the National Convention.

His whole stand against the force

was to prevent the will of the voters
ut the polls, and in the interest of the
