Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1894-09-28

GaIlinger did not think it was possible
for the people to own the railroads and
save several hundred millions of dollars
each year to the people, No, that would
be robbing the watered stock thieves.
Gallinger did say that wherever a gov
ernment owned and operated railroad,
the public were charged higher rates
than where like roads were operated by
private enterprises. This was the most
miserable, bare-faced, bold-headed lie, he
uttered, but there were many equally
false.
Gallinger did not say one word in favor
of recovering the millions of acres of
lands stolen from the people. He dare
not.
Gallinger did not offer one single idea
that would convince anyone that he
was not a ward heeler.
Gallinger did say that the republican
party had u grand history. This we all
know, but he did not tell Us that a
Rothschlld and Wall street combine,
aided by every infamous trust in the
country, was writing its epltaph.
Gallinger has gall. He has cheek OF
the wooden nutmeg kind. He stands be-
fore an intelligent audience OF common
people, and, with the impudence Of his
kind. tries TO palm off lies for truth and
misquotes figures TO suit his base purpose
| He spoke of protecting American man
hood and womanhood with an American
protective tariff. Yet he failed to speak
Of the millions of idle men and women
! before Cleveland came into power, or the
| hundreds of thousands Of half starved
EN- mployees of the manufacturing east who
were unable TO earn enough under the
Mckinley law to sustain life and protect
virtue, or the shipping into this country
of over half Il million contract laborers
who drove out honest American citizens
and forced them to become tramps. All
this was done under the Mckinley tariff
and before Cleyeland and the dreadful
populists got into power No, Gallinger
is not much on telling the truth.
The sum total of Gallingers prayer
was: Vote the republican ticket, and
keep right on paying your little protect
lords of the east.
He stated that one million dollars Of
New Hampshire money had been stolen
by Sioux City people, and all those dis
tinguished loan and trust people of Sioax
the republican party. 1t was a bad break
sign of a reporter in the room.
Galllnger uses figures up into the
billions, and quoted from Jefferson, Clay,
Benton and everything where he could
find an item which he might construe to
suit his purpose.
Gallnger is doing good work for the
peoples party. He more than confirms
everything claimed that the republican
party of the nation is Il gold bug party;
that it had nothing to offer the people
but tariff, tariff, tariff, thrift.
Gallinger abused the democrats severe
ly and pounded the populsts some. He
said there we're $50 populists in New
Hampshire. more than there ought TO be
in the world. We believe he stated his
honest conviction then, but these same
populists will live to carry the flag of
industrial freedom over his political
grave, and march on to victory under the
glorious banner Of equal and exact JUS
tice to all
The LEADER regrets to be obliged to
speak so harshly Of any man who has
been honored with seat in the United
States Senate. but due regard for truth
and an exposure of his lies compels US
to unmask such prominent hum0ug.
