Financial Independence.

Gue SUI, popu'dtlOH VeTSeu III every
phase of industrious enterprise and
blessed with region like our Rocky
Mountains, foored and paved with the
precious metals, cannot make decent
living without Hebrew cooperation
The history of the Hebrew race from
its initial hours, nearly a, 900 years ago,
is history of pillage and pitiless sell
fshness. 1t was but succession of the
most hideous murders and massacres of
all their neighbors until jerusalem was
at length torn out and annihiated.
Ever since then the Jews have been
the political PRESERVATION of fraud and
falsehood. There is no truth in them.
They take asylum under the canopy of
any government only to undermine,
pollute and pillage it with their treach-
cries. They are no better now than
formerly, and if we admit them into
the same bed with US they will iufal-
libby kick US out.
1t is hazardous for men to permit
themselves to reason on subjects they
do not understand. When perplexed
with medical and legal problems, rather
than trust to their own unenlightened
judgment, they consult physicians and
lawyers. In fiscal affairs they should
do likewise, because the sciences Of
finance and political economy are far
more abstruse, and for their interpreta-
ton exact far greater study and exper-
fence. At the present time our Eastern
States are guided upon the silver ques-
tion by their newspapers entirely, and
are continually fed upon such adroitly
prepared doses of mendacity that their
readers are all at sea. No quicksand
could offer less secure foundation for
an Egyptian pyramid than our daily
newspaper data tenders to US for solid
financial reasoning.
The unanimous voice Of all ecopo-
mists agree that the wealth OF all
nations is exclusively derived from
human labor. The industrial classes
therefore, being its immediate artificers
should constitute the chief object Of
our legislative care and solicitude. The
few who belong to the opulent class are
not wealth producers and need nc
special aid and sympathy from the gov
eminent. The whole drift of our silver
legislation, however, has for the las
twenty years been wholly in favor o
capital and hostile to labor. As oul
farmers constitute three fourths of the
s&tion they are entitled to special care
:and sympathy Of Congress. Instead o
this they have been the recipients o
its most unholy kostilities and hav'
