hold the largest share of the bon ),
and they are the dictators of y
financial laws enacted by congress,
and the national banks must be pro-
tected because it affords them ole
of their greatest schemes for rob
bling us; and another reason why
the sly stem must be protected is be-
cause it is one of the greatest weap-
ons that the great financiers of
Europe could invent to destroy a
republican form of government. An
other reason why it must be pro-
tected il because it is the old polit-
ical machine itself that was invent
ed for the purpose of handing us
over, bound hand and foot, into the
hands of Great Britain.
Now, for the benefit and and edu-
cation of Alliance men who voted
with the Democrats at the last cleo
ton. and also for the benefit and
education of all Democrats who are
Democrats because their fathers
were Democrats, | will present
plank of the old Jeffersonian Jack
sonian Democratic platform of 1910.
Here it is:
RESOLVED, That congress has no
power to charter national bank
that we believe such an Institution
one of deadly hostility to the best
interests OF the country, dangerous
to the republican institutions and
liberties of the people, calculated to
place the business of the country
within the control of concentrated
money power, above the laws and
will of the people"
Brothers--men of America right
herc--thc national banking system

by both old parties, which, like the
treason of Benedict Arnold, all the
waters of Niagara Falls will not

Brothers--men Of America WHO
are for America, and not for bankers,
bond-holders and Great Britain-we
must either have Legislation to pay
the bonds and stop this national
banking system, or we will have to
surrender our government to the
Shylocks of Great Britain.

The National Banking System
Exposed.

were taxed out OF existence, was |
not necessary that the government
should authorize corporate banking
associations to emit their bills o
credit, based on government bonds
in order to furnish the people with
safe and stable currency, OF uniform
value in all parts of the Unltet
States ?
Answer No; the government
bonds are based upon the wealth o
the nation, and are no better than {
treasury note issued on the same
basis nor are they as good as the
treasury note when it is made full
legal tender, and in such denomina
tions as are convenient for circula
ton.
The bond is an evidence of debt
drawing usury from the laborers O.
the country, and making them poor
er every year. The legal tender
treasury note without usury is St
much money circulating among the
people, stimulating industry and
adding so much to the productive
capacity of the nation without rob
bing the laborer of all the net pro
ceeds of his honest toll to pay usury
to a favored few for the privilege Of
using their individual notes as cir
culating medium.
Now let us see what the national
bank notes are-on what they are
based, and how they obtain their
partial legal-tender property. These
notes are simply the notes of private
corporations, chartered not by a
government of the people and for
the people, but by a majority of our
senators and representatives in con-
press who were seeking their own
selfish individual interests, and not
the interests of all the people of this
government.
These notes are based upon the
usury,bearing bonds of the United
States, which bonds are deposited
with the treasury of the United
States as security for the payment
of the notes and the government,
whether constitutional or not, SC
all the security that we have for the
payment Of these notes is the abil'
ity and willingness of the people to
pay these bonds upon which they
are based, and all the legal-tendel
property they possess is given to
them by enactment of law and oul
government must still continue tC
collect revenue from the people tc
pay the usury on these bonds, which
must be paid every six months in
advance upon which this circulation
is based, and our people who labCl
and produce the wealth of the nation
are compelled to pay tribute to this

the world ever saw. Boomer Oh
later, they must be rejected anc
cease to be money in the United
States. The people are becoming
too intelligent to submit tt this Brit
ish scheme of robbery. These notes
are controlled by individuals, fol
their own private benefit, who are
not responsible to the government
or to the people. 1t is the British
system of robbery by the aristocracy
and for the aristocracy.
The national banking system is al
illegitimate child, born not OF the
constitution of the United States
1t was never brought into existence
by the people of this government
For responsible government they
(congress) have substituted ire
sponslble bank officers. Instead OF
system supporting mercantile,
manufacturing and agricultural inter
ests, we have monetary system
endangering the welfare of the mer-
chants, manufacturers and agrlcul-
tural interests for the benefit OF
bankers and bond holders. That
such power over the property, and
even the lives, of the people OF this
country can be allowed to exist is
one of the phenomena Of our civil.
ization. 1t never could exist were
it not for the mighty power of money
to control the printing presses III
the United States. These men the
national bank officers can, in secret
session, without the consent OF
congress, decide the value Of all
property. This should be regarded
as one of the greatest crimes against
modern civilization.
The first national banking law was
passed on the 25th of February,
1868, which was the most infamous
act in the great tragedy, and the
most villainous scheme Of robbery
that ever disgraced the statutes OF
a nation, which, if not overcome,
will end in the death of liberty and
equality to the American people.
Brothers--men of Anelica-right
here is the financial legislation that
has surrendered our government
surrendered the people and their
most sacred interests into the hands
of national bank dictators, as about
seventy-fve or eighty per cent. OF
the bonds are owned by British syn,
dicates. 1t is no less than a sell
out to Great Britain. The bond
holders control the banks, and the
banks control congress. Here is
where the British lion comes in and
takes the wings of our glorious old
eagle.

A Leg
Rottingg off.
\ Mother Made Happy.

Eight years ago my son received a
bad bruise on his leg and then took
cold in it, which resulted in a very
serious running sore. We have spent
a large amount of money doctoring it.,
and have tried nearly all the remedies
in the market which are recommended
for such Affections. Instead of improv-
ing, it continued to grow. worse,:.s until
we feared that the only way would be
TO have his leg amputated. The leg
was badly swollen, and the sore be-
came very offensive, extending over
surface about five inches in diameter
Hearing of similar case here in the
city which has been cured by "Septi-
eide" we decided to try it. From the
commencement of its use we were
happily surprised for it destroyed the
odor at once, the swelling left the leg
and came out of the sore, giving it a
much healthier appearance. The
sore continued to heal, and we are
rejoiced that ''Septicide" has cured the
leg. Mrs. AMELIA PRICE,
