il the imitation of credits; the imitation
Of credits is due 10 the lack in the vol
ume of money upon which business has
been pursued: and this lack is due TO
the "gold bugs" Boiled down. the
"gOld bugs" are a few bankers OF
Europe, the ROthschilds leading, and
because of their power they command
the civilized world. They have been
engaged for some months in getting up
q depression in America for the pur-
pose Of influencing the American tnan-
cial system TO the end that gold alone
shall be the standard Of value, the
money OF the world be thus restricted,
and they be enabled 70 continue the
potent power they now exercise when
gives them the big end OF the profits OF
all labor.-LdbOr Tribune
