North Whatcom journal: II YOU
are rich now, remember your children
may be poor Are you willing that
moneyed interests shall control legis-
lationP Do not forget that your chill
dren and future generations depend
on the wisdom Of your vote. A free,
government Of and for the people is

LoDgmOnt Cal, Times: Caribou
has a silver club to which every voter
Of the precinct belongs. That means
hundred votes for the Peoples ticket
next November. When Longmont
gets over the throes OF this municipal
election her people will have time to
attend to the coming national question.

journal OF the Knights OF Labor:
The question OF whether this is to be
q nation of plutocrats and slaves or of
freemen is IN the balance In 1776
our forefathers gave the death blow
to monarchism because it was tyran-
nical and Slapped the resources OF the
nation. The nineteenth century is
witnessing the forebodings of the
great struggle whose aim is to abolish
q system which, by enabling u few to
absorb the wealth of the nation, is
more tyrannical than ever hing
could be!

Alliance Herald: Slavery OF intel
lect is the greatest curse to Ameri-
cans. To dare to think for ones self.
TO dare to assert ones opinion, TO
dare act as one has the right without
regard TO some leader, boss or party
is almost unknown Why should one
fear TO assert his rights to maintain
his opinion or to seek any remedy he
may choose to subserve his plans and
purposesP Are you freeP II so, do
as you please. Are you slaveP II
SO. ask your boss for leave to do as
you please. Pshaw you say that Is
untrue. Think of it. Weigh your,
self and you will find that you are an
intellectual slave.

The Advance Journal: That the
money question is becoming the all
absorbing, overshadowing question o
the hour and that it is the question
) that affects all classes and callingt
alike, no one who has watched the
signs of the times can deny. The
farmers were led to believe for Ions
time that "overproduction" was thu
bane OF all their troubles and tn,
cause Of present low prices. But whel
they began to investigate they fount
that underconsumption, caused by
contraction of the currency was tn,
true and only cause And what is be
ing done to increase the volume o
currency. to the end that prOductiv
labor may receive just and oquitabl
rewardP We pause for reply.
