n 81 SIn,aeI, s,s great deal of sound sense
on bushcs?' .,g extract from an editorial in
,pS sn'TN, Ncws of the S'h, upon the
rresdcnt's message:
After long, hard and heroic struggle
Clevclrnd has brought his own party and
the country face to face and then TO under
stand the tariff question and has made it
| possible to co,rcct the iniIuitcs of the Nc
| kinley system. If the democratic party can
| be split OF dcftatc! on the silver issue the
| republican party will he raised from defeat
and death to triumph and power. With q
force bill and some other legislation tho
| fools in the South and West can be bound
down to another unlimited term of scryitudc
| to the protected laanuiacturinglinterests
Against all these forces the Prcsiden,
stands. We hope and hclivc he will have
| with him the mass Of the sensible, honest
working people Of the country. When We
say "working people" we mean people 0t
| all classes who earn their living by work
and not the gamblers who live by their wit,
| in Wall street, the politicians who live by
jaw and confidence games. the struggling
army Of miscellaneous bummers and dead
beats chronically in pursuit of soft jobs. OF
the benefciaries of unjust laws who grow
rich at the expense Of the public without
| tho use of their own Industry or talents ol
sagacity.
The Presidents position is really tho posi-
| ton of the democratic party. We do not
! want IN oil gold or a. n! silver currency VI
either metal to drive out the other. We do
not want currency which can be controlled
by n few rich men and expanded or con
! trac.ea sc .hei- Interests suggests regardless
Of the rights or interests Of the public
nor a currency based on nothing and subject
to distrust and discrclit. We want n cur
rcncy based on value MS near uniform and
unyarying as any human possession can be
a currency beyond individual 90 sectional
control but representing wien in the hands
| or pockets of the people n real valuo and
| good for its face amount in any civilized
| country in the world. il seems to us that
to meet these requirements gold and silver
and paper may and should all be used, but
that the system we need must be the result
of careful thought based on knowledge and
| calculation based on facts and experience.
| The first step is to undo the mistake that
that has been made, TO stop the drain that is
taking strength and vitality irom Us. That
is the meaning we iinl in The message sent
in to the congress- yesterday
| make all the latest style Photo work and
at bottom prices. Cali. examine samples
aud be convinced. Remember everything
take here the last few days Of this run | will
, finish and deliver before leave.
