HON. FRANCls q. NEWLANDs.

The goldbugs in the Eastern States
and the money lenders of Europe
have sent willy agents into Nevada to
down the Silver Pasty. They are now
engaged in the WORK of defeating, if
possible, Hon. Francis G. Newlands,
the nominee of the Silver Party for
Representative in Congress. The
money sharks do not like Congress
man Newlands for the reason that he
does not be.on. to either of the two
old parties. The national bankers
and the big corporations and the Shy
locks OF Europe have agreed that the
the majority in both Houses of Con-
gress must be either Republican
or Democratic-they do not care
which. They know that they can
easily control the legislation Of this
great country while the two old parties
(who seem to have formed copart-
nership) are in power and reign su-
preme. They also know that they
cannot "handle" the Silver Party,
hence their opposition to COMPRESSION

Republican or Democratic organiza.

In view of these facts, the people
of Nevada owe it to themselves to
see that the goldbugs do not carry
their political points at this Falls
election.
The talk that Nevada wonld be

every Nevadan, to his sorrow, knows.
The Eastern Republicans are as
aggressive to day as they were then,
and Judging from the wishy -washy
platforms adopted by their State Con
vel tons this year, it is evident that
they have not, and will not, change
Their views regarding the silver ques-
ton. The Eastern Republicans are
fully as much opposed to the rehabil-
itation of the white metal now as they
have been for many years past, and
we e the silver State represented in
Congress by Republicans, or
Democrats the situation would still
remain unchanged.

sees no chance whatever.
ltthereforc behooves every patriotic
elector in Nevada to stand firmly by
the Silver party. Let the people of
this State show to the Eastern Re
