THE PLUTOCKAcIC RALLY.

The question in this country which
involves all other questions is whether
it shall be governed by its 65,G0O,GOO
people or by the few thousand pluto.
Gratis who own the bulk of its wealth
and who, 10y virtue of such ownership.
claim the right to rule.
That WIS tn, question in 1879 and
again III 1892 when the people rose and.
as they thought. shook off the yoke.
That is the question now when the
plu1ocracy has ralIird and has massed
it's forces to snatch victory from de-
feat.
That viii he the question until the
Sovereignty of the pc 'ple Is. vindicat ed
tucrac:.
The milllonaires Of America are
moved 10y strange inIatuation It.
bs lieye that their money is Gmnl-
potent. They had no sooner seen that
they were routed by the onslaught Of
the m.sses of the democratic party
THIN they Set to work in the de- mo-
cratic party itself to capture control Of
tine organization which had been So
sed against them rs To show how tor
midable it Is to unjust privilege.
1 hey will never succeed, and they.
are making it worse for themselves at
the liil;l settlement, ut they are LON
in high feather at their imagined sue
cess.
After the magnificent work that car

to the plutocracy. the de mOcratlc party

coantry then learned Tor the first time
That Henry Willard WAS "a democrat,
and the democrats OF the country were
!iuIn,!iated TO the DUST by the specta-
Gle of Pacific railroad lobby lists, attor-
neys aud other dep,:nIlnts taking
charge Of the party Ii the northwest
and pushing forward for recognition

and check the forward movement Of
the mighty democracy. I
They Will never do it. They are
foulish in attempting it. The people
haze made up their minds to undo
the wrongs which civil war nude pos
sible. They have resolved that they
will restore a government of equal
rights, in which the rights OF person
and the rights of property shall he
guarded with ali the power of the peo-
pie: in which the right Of man to
hold and to enjoy his own earnings
shall not ba impaired by laws which
take the earnings of million to make
a millionaire of one. The people have
set their minds on that and nothing
will deter them. No le.,dtr cah

deEiagogue can persuade than to
change it. Trey know where they
wish to go and they Will clInoh their
teeth and go. no matter who gets in
their way.-St. Louis Republic Oem.
