only u system Of legalized spoilistlon, by

SECOND. We favor an income tax as
a lasting and permanent part OF our
financial system, AS the first step to-

THIRD. We favor the immediate res

age Of gold and silver at the present
ratio OF 16 to l, without waiting for the
aid or consent Of any other nation on
earth. We are opposed to the issuing
