MIGHTY SENSIBLE "MAC."

To the Editor of the Eagle.
The long wished for time has almost ar
rived when American citizens will have al
onport unity of repairing in part tie many
disasters which We brought Oh our country
by our foolishness III 1892
II we wish to continue he policy of dis
aster inaugurated by Grover Cleveland
and approved by the Democratic and Pop
ulist parties, we will on next Tuesday GO
to che polls and there vote for Congress-
man Simpson. II we believe that the Con-
stitution of the United States should be
trampled under foot and dcspoiism es-
| { blished, under which the president in
stead of being merely an executive officer
viii be entrusted with the law-making
power. and by means of patronage force
the representatives of the people 10 enact
his viii into law; then We will vote for
| Congressman Simpson.
Ii We believe that the price of farm
products shall be determined by spetu
| lators OH the board of Trade who have
| made millions By selling wind wheat and
other products of the farm, and that we
are powerless to prevent them by means
OF an anticipation law because we send
men to congress who can he bought 10
vote against the expressed will of the
people: then we will vote for congressman
Simpson.
Ii we believe that bonds, mortgages,
money. railroad palace cars and every
description of personal property, lnclud-
ing brown stone fronts, fast horses, and
pleasure yachts shall hereafter be unit Xed,
ana All the expenses OF government should
be raised by. Il tax on land; theu we will
vote for Congressman Simpson.
Ii we believe tnat all custom houses Ia
T-.as 4 4
ton. and oul markets opened TO European
competitors thereby reducing the wages OF
American workmen to the European stand
ard, which means that wages in the Uni
tel States will be as low as will merely
keep soul and body together, then we will
voIe for Congressman 5 mpsou.
If we believe that property in land is rs
lndefenslDle rs property in man and should
be taxed until confilscation relieves us
from the curse of private ownership. then
we can logically vote for Congressman
Simpson.
IL we believe the opposite of all of these
ldiotic and imam erican dOctriues. and be-
ileve also that as farmers, our best Gus.
toners, are not LIVING On the banks of the
lhames, the iIbannou or the Rhine. but
are In our own mines and factories and a.
we pr otect them against the foreign com
petition III the same ratio they will be ell
aDleu 10 purchase the pIoducts of the farm,
therefore we will, on next Tuesday, silent
ly but effectually vote for Chester Long.
If we would give death blow to the in
sane theories of Simpson and PETER in
their advocacy of irredeemable fiat
currency and the demonstration of god
and silver within three years. we will. as
PATRIOTS as men who love America and her
institutions, send to the legislature by
big majority the intrepid soldier, the con-
sistant patriot. the unpurchasabie states
men, Frank u. Tellar
Finally, If we would encourage the in
vest ment of American capital now lying
ldie) In productive enterprises, thereby
giving employment to American workmen
at remuneratiye wages, and declare by our
votes that hereafter We will insist that our
representative will enact laws for the
benefit of the people living IN America aud
not for the benefit of Europeans, Mexicans
and Canadians; then on the 9th day of No
vemosr we Will vote the whole Republican
ticket from top to bottom. Yours,
RESPECTFULLY. ONE OF THE Macs
