aud advised the people to vote for
Weaver and Field, the nominees of
the Omaha convention, as the only
true representatives of the peoples
rights. The platform of the Omaha
convention demanded the free and
unlimited coinage of silver, and the
delegates who composed that con-
vention were honest, earnest men,
and meant what they said. The
people of Nevada without regard to
former political affiliations, believed
as did, and cast more than two
thirds of their votes for Weaver and
Field, elected Francis G. Newlands,

gress by still larger majority. They
also elected every member of both
houses of the legislature pledged to
the retoration of silver, When the

Nv statement that which eyer was
elected, Mr.. Harrison or Mr.. Cleve-
land, he would use the patronage of
the presidential Office to destroy one
half of the metallic money of the
world, was vehemently denied by
the friends of both. Truth of my
statement has been verified. The
President united with the banks and
bondhoders to alarm tn, people as to
the soundness of the money of the
government, and created panic.
The subsidized press of all the com
mercial centers was made to declare
that the people demanded the i'm

ALLIED WITH THE PEOPLE.


The masses have allied themselves
with the Peoples party, and are as
bold and outspoken on the subject
as we are right here in Colorado.
Our Republican friends say, 'Let
US fight it out on the party line"
A year ago the Democratic party
was broken in two in Colorado over
this question. Campaign orators
grew loud IN attempting to demon
strate that one or the other of the
two old parties was the best friend
of silver. For twenty years the peo-
pie of the mining States have been
catspaws to the old parties, and have
danced to their music. You know
how they did. Every four years the
Democrats met and declared on the
free coinage of silver. Then the
Republicans would meet to denounce
the Democratic party and declare
they would do better on that subject
than their enemy. For three years
and nine months the Republicans
and Democrats of Colorado have
been most earnest free coinage men
but the other three months they
were engaged in forwarding the
schemes of the money-poweI.

III explaining the reason why he
had quit the Democratic party, Mr..
Patterson said he had observed tnat
in State where there was no Peo-
ple's party there are no free coinage
votes in Congress. He observed that
wherever there was a strong People, S
party organization there was senti-
ment in favor of the people and in
OPPOSITION to Mr.. Cleveland. Talk
ing with well-informed persons in
Washington, it became apparent that
Democratic Senators and members
as rule would gladly put the ques-
ton of coinage out Of the politics
of their State. If there was no
Peoples party in the State the ques-
ton of silver would be eliminated
from politices.
Continuing Mr. Patterson said:
Men are pretty nearly the same the
world over. They love to bask in
the sunshine of power. 1t is a
pleasant business for d member of
Congress to 60 to the President OIL
Secretary of the Treasury and name
a friend to fill a position in the gift
of those men. Iou would not fine
the magnificent fight now being
made by Senators Stewart and Tel
ler if 1t were not for the Populis
party. [Cheer.

the demands Of Chicago upon this cen-

Chicago papers stated this morning. to
settle balances due that city. but to
accommodate some OF its banks. A few hun
dred thousand dollars were shipped to Chicago

for currency. Officials OF q number OF the
principal banks here deny the report published
in Chicago that the banks there have been re-
fused currency by their New York correspond

tions have now been heard from. and their
