advised them that the law plainly

which declares that it is the policy
of the government of the United
States to maintain the parity Of
gold and silver.
Whoever has received from the
government silver certificate, or
otherwise obtained the same, has
taken it subject to the law of re-
dention in silver Such holder has
neither legal nor moral right to in

redemption Of such certificates.
The government, under the circum-
stances, should do as a private in
dividual would do, where it had
both legal and moral right on its
side: it should be governed by its
own interest and convenience.
The government had abundance of
silver, it had not abundance of gold.
On the contrary the lack of gold
amounted to financial distress, az
fecting our whole country and peo-
pie. The payment Of gold to the
holders of silver certificates. under

treasury supply OF gold and to pro-
duce the panic.
The intention OF the treasury de-
partment to continue this policy is
a present national calamity.
1t is not a maintaining of the
parity Of gold and silver. or even an
attempt at so maintaining such
parity. The enemies of silver have

REMEMBER
the Annual Meeting OF the stats
Alliance.

the Annual Meeting OF the stats
Alliance.
The constitution Of the State Ali
ance originally fixed the first Tues
day in January as the day Of the an
nual meeting. 1t has been thought
that the members would prefer to
come together week later, SO as to
be able to celebrate New Years Day
with their families. Hence the con-
stitution was changed fixing the date
of the annual meeting On the second
Tuesday in January. 1t will be held
in the Lumber Exchange hall, Mime
apolis. Let all friends OF the
cause will make special efforts to be
present. The meeting will be an in
teresting and most important one;
and several questions of moment will
be discussed; the speeches by Hon. A
Reyes, W. W. Erwin, S. NJ. Owen and
others will add interest to the occa
sion. We are passing through teri
BILE times, and unless special efforts
are made the convention will be
small one;-not from any lack OF in
tercst in the work but because Of the
cost of attending from distant parts
of the state.
But remember that the evil condi-
tionS of miSgovcrnment which now
atilict us are due to past neglect of
duty by the voters; and il the chosen
spirits of the rural population, repre-
scntcd in the State Alliance now
grow disheartcned and give up the
fight. the last barrier will be broken
down and the poverty and wretched-
ness OF the people must greatly in
crease. This is not any one mans

The worst OF oppression is. that it
dcpresscs its victims below the. point
