Don't throw away your vote,'' is
what the Peoples party voter will
have dingdonged into his ear from
now until election day.
To the Peoples party man who
has formerly been republican the
republican politician will plead with
him, don't throw away your vote !;
vote for Weaver is a vote for
Cleveland"
To the Peoples party man who
has formerly been a democrat, the
democratic politician will argue in
this way: "Your principles are all
right, but you can't possibly elect
Weaver. Vote for Cleveland and
help us beat Harrison"
There are lots of men who believe
our principles are right and that our
candidates are honest, intelligent,
brave and patriotic, but they will
be led astray by just such proceed
ings as above quoted, and will try
the old parties 'sjust once more"
Don't throw away your vote
but vote for the right is never
thrown away, though it may be in
the minority.
Your old party whether you
have been a democrat or republican
has been lying to you for quarter
of century and you know it.
1t has promised you this, that
and the other thing, and its prom
ises have not been worth the paper
written upon, and you know it.
It has promised you reform and
it has not reformed ,and you knowit
And it has made mighty little
difference to the monopolists which
old party was in power, and you
know it.
Jay Gould testified in court few
years ago that in democratic dis
tricts he was a democrat, in repub-
lican districts be was republican
but you may bet he was a Jay
Gould man all the time.
"The public be ID" no matter
which old party is in power, and
you know it.
But it would make difference to
the monopolists if the Peoples
party should get in power and you
know it.
Never, in any country on Gods
green earth, has the concentration
of wealth into the hands of the few
been so rapid as in this fair country
of ours in the past twenty years
and you know it-ifyou have stud
led history.
Unless there is a change, what
will be the outcome? The Repub.
lie itself is in danger, and you
know it,
History repeats itself and you
know It.
Yet, you may be wavering-fear-
ing that a vote for home and native
land is a vote thrown away.
Coward You are fit to be but a
newer of wood and a drawer of
water for the monopolists all the
days of your life-but it is too bad
that you should vote wife and the
babies into slavery too.
Mortgages increasing on every
hand and satisfied only by fore
closure, and the lot of the producer
getting harder and harder every
year, and you know it by history,
by your own experience, by evi-
dences all around you, and yet, you
measly coward, you are afraid o1
voting for remedy, for fear your
rotten old political party-when
both are as near alike as two peas
from the same pod, and both worm
eaten--and that it does not make
a particle of difference to you or to
the monopolists Though your in.
terests are widely differently which
wins, and you know it, and you re-
alize it when you think of it.
Don't be hoodooed by the finn
fam of the wbangbang noise Of the
campaign and party Doodle +!
There are enough men who be.
lieve in our principles to elect oul
national and every state ticket in
the union-fool towards are afraid
of Throwing away their votes y
"All they lack is some of Jack
sons 'sby the eternal in their veins
and sand in their craws.
However, there are enough of VI
who have left the monopoly camps
who will stand up and be counted
to throw the election into the house
and if we don't win this time we
will have enough men in Congress
to forestall evil legislation, and ou1
growth will encourage the weak
kneed to come over and join oul
forces and in 1896 the people, will
get control of and make this gov
ernment of, and by the people 81
sure as there is a God in Israel.
Stand up and be counted Or brand
yourself on the forehead, coward
