We therefore unite with the friends of honest money everywhere in stigmatizing the Sherman progressive silver basis law as no solution of the gold and silver question, and as . fit appendix to the subsidy and bounty swim dle, the Mckinley worse-than-war tariff, the Blaine reciprocity humbug, the squandered surplus, the advancing deficit, the defective census and falsiaed representation, and the revolutionary procedures of the billion dollar congress-all justly condemned by the peoples great uprising last November QS9O)-a verdict which renewed this year (lS92) will empower Democratic statesmen to guide the peoples councils and to execute the peoples will.
