thing at the right time, and the in
Deepen lent stand Nevada took at that
time has done more to advance the
cause of silver than has been done by
any other state. We are assur ed of
this by Mr.. Newlands, Senator Stew
art. Senator Jones ana by the national
committee of the Peoples party.
The leading silver men of our country
admit that the stand Nevada took and
is maintaining, in ignoring the old
parties and making the free coinage
of silver at the ratio of 16 to the par
amount issue, and its deter animation
to throw off the old party yoke and
leave all other national questions in
allegiance for the time, is the only
hope II success for the silver cause,
and they are falling in line with Ne
vadI AS course. When S .nator Jones
witnessed the coalition of the Repub
hcan and Democratic parties in re-
pc iling the Sherman law, he declared
that the cause was irretrievably lost
unless the friends of silver united
against the two old parties. Senator
Stewart and Congressman Newlands
to- this position two years ago.
Senator Don Cameron of Pennsyl-
vania. Mr.. Bryan of Nebraska, Mr..
Bland of Missouri, James B Weaver,
the national Poynlist committee.
General Warner of Ohio the presi-
dent of the Bimetallic league, the en-
tire executive committee of this league
and indeed nearly all the leaders in the
silver cause are united on the Nevada
policy. Nevada, instead of being
spoken of as the "rotten borough"
has gained national reputation as
being the Moses to lead the people
through the wilderness of bankruptcy
and disaster. The frien Is of silver in
the East in discussing the future
course to be adopted recommend the
"Nevada policy" It's indepen lent
position gave our senators and repre-
sentative immense influence in unit
ing the silver sentiment of the coun-
try on the political line Of monetary
refor n. No man, in or out of congress
New ands in the last two years.
LucEIly for the cause he is in Pc
sitioh to give material aid, as we'll as
to contribute ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
By speech and pen. against the gold
bug 'coaspirators. To aid in distribu
ting free coinage speeches delivered
at the extra session in both houses,
and in printing and distributing other
s.tver literature in the South, North
and Eastern states among the people
His check book has been at the service
of thosei in charge Of this work, and he
has donated thousands of dollars for
these purposes. Nevada should take
an advanced step and simply snow
undo. Messrs. Bartine, Doughty and
Riley by such an avalanche OF free
mems votes as to convince the hire
lings of Wall street that the attempt
to divide the votes Of the silver met
in this state is utterly useless. The
tactics of the money power have al
ways been and now are to divide the
people on minor issues. The hope OF
the national Republican committee il
to elect Bartine and the Republican
ticket through the Peoples party
Money has'been contributed and sent
to this state for the Republican part,
and especially to defeat Mr.. Newlands
Then it will be proclaimed to the
world that Nevada, the silver cham
pion, has seen the error Of it's way ant
repudiated silver. Silver State.
