-as,fy rAR MR. SLArER:--Your favor OF the

that victims of the gold conspiracy are

America were a united secret organization

the money function of silver and augment the

London bankers includes bankers and busi-
ness men depending upon the favor of bank

of the two political parties, and the admins
tration at Washington. The reason they have
succeeded so long Is the pretense that there
are really two parties in the country, whereas,
so far as the governing power is concerned
there is but one party, which is the gold
party. The gold party allows the two great
they choose, provided always that each party
will obey the commands Of the dominant or
ganization, the gold party.

Modern civilization has never met so foTmld-
able foe as the gold combination OF Europe
and America. Europe Is a military camp.
The army in that country Is the argument

The only remedy is a bold, aggressive, In
