foreign rule 50 high that all man
kind may read the words The dis
graceful spectacle IN the monetary
conference lately In session. the
speech OF an American delegate who
that we were 80 "wedded
10 Europe that we would turn our
backs upse Mexico, Asia and all the
South American republics" and bow
before the money monArchs OF
Europe and go bound with fet'ers
and our chains elAnking in the sight
of the world for all our days. The
action of delegate Andrews calls for
vigorous indignation from ali true
patriots, and he should have been re-
called at once and the conference
dissolved. And we should make the
announcement 20 all nations that
hence forth and forever the United
States will regulate the value OF tfs
own money without dietation from
any foreign power. Then restore
the silver dollar to free coinage.
Let the government alone issue the
the money, a full legal tender for all
debts. Stand as fiim as the Rock OF
Ages against return To the old
wildcat state bank issue of money.
Increase the circulation 10 not more
than fifty dollars per capita. Inn
pose a graduated income tax. Es-
tablish postal saving bank sys-
tenn and by bringing abont these re-
forms restore fallen prices, advance
reduced wages, employ the thousands
of idle hands. Reopen the abandon
ed and closed-down mines. Develop
thousands of new veins of shining
silver and radiant gold. Inaugurste
great enterprises, develop western
deserts. Remove the burden OF
debt crushing down the energy of all
our people in every relation of life
| except the 1000 who own two-thirds
of the wealth of the nation, and
thus bring peace, prosperity, and
happiness to land torn with con
fiict and trouble.
Our organization must stand true
