HONEST DEMOCRATS. WHAT WILL YOU
OO1
We must have ii change. There
must be- reform in our government.
You voted for change last fall, you
have gotten it, but it is simply an
other step down the dark road OF
Republican legislation. 1t is a
change, but change for the worse,
and done by your own party. You
are of course disappointed; you
know that the moncy power and
monopOlies are running our govern
ment at the expense of justice to you
and a majority of the people. You
know that your party is IN their
hands. Now what is your duty :
Your duty is to use your influence
and vote to change this condition.
Your duty is to take the manage
ment of our government out OF the
hands of monopoly and goldbugs.
You know it. What are you going
to do about it: AS an honest man
YOU are no doubt thinking about it,
you must soon decide. Some of you
have already turned your eyes to the
Populist party as the only pillar of
light to lead lis out of the dar kness
of goldbug oppression. But some of
YOU are thinking of following diff
fereDt course. You think that in as
much us the pure Democratic prln-
ciples are right, that you will fight
it ont i'll the Democratic party. You
are thinking that it is your duty to
try to reform the party. This is Il
noble intention, but a fatal mistake
Give us YOUR ear for moment, and
we will call your attention to some
facts in history. Let us see what Il
vain and hopeless task you are about
to undertake. You are no doubt a
good man, YOU are a patriot or you
would not be dissatisfied at the reign
of monopoly. But YOU are about to
waste your energies and spoil your
good intentions by failure. You are
about to undertake what no man mas
ever succeeded in DOING The hist
