with quotations and extracts
from the most celebrated au

take great pains to say much in
a little. 1t is not how much
but what you read that will de
.efmine your Knowledge OF a
question. A great reformer
once accused the moss back
politician (the pharisees) of
rendering the word of God of
none effect by their traditions.
They had piled verbiage of
subtitle disquisition mountain
high upon the truth, and moth
ing but the lightning of Divine
Inspiration could have pierced
down to it. The traditions of
our fossil politicians are piled
mountain high upon the truths
Of financial reform. The air is
thick with the darkness of their
abuse and misunderstanding.
They have loaded down every
reform dear to tie hearts of the
people with the avarice of sell
fi5hnesS and the meanness of
personal ambition, until j. is
hard for full sized man to
hold any office of trust or pro-
BIZ in this State Bargains and
bargains, trIckery and
,hicanery disgrace every con-
which they control or
influence.
In the beginning God said let
here be light and there was
light, and there must be light.
Only in the darkness of parti-
IAN fury, Of sectional hate, of
nfamatory color line speeches
# personal politics and of cam
;algn lying can the ills we now
ufer flourish, increase and
multiply.
The subscription price of The
financial News Letter will be
wenty five cents for six months.
nd fifty cents for one year.
Ne first issue will be On the
til day of July, 1892, or os soon
here after as the subscriptions
variant. 1t is my special de-
Ire, and it seems to be fit and
roper that it should begin like
he liberties of the people it
I'LL seek to defend on that

l would suggest that as far as
ossible the friends of financial
'form organize clubs. I can |
ot send the News Letter to |
lem any cheaper than to single
lbscribers, but it will facili-
tie the sending in of. the sub

orIzed to form one club of
