sorely need is not yet obtained. Battle
after battle must yet be fought in the
halls of legislation, before there will be
handed to the people the full measure |
of their rights. The tireless and aggres |
sive foe is not yet beaten to the death. |
Tie people of this fertile and this |
fruitful land will never remove the !
usurer's yoke until silver is remonet-
jzed and is placed up0n an equality
with gold. The laws which favor
capital and which debase labor must
be repealed. The privileges which
have been given to the creditor class
and which bear SO heavily upon all
debtors must be abrogated. The policy
which has increased the value of money
and decreased the value of property
must become thing of the past. Gold
must step down from the throne and
manhood must receive the crown. This
war against power and pelf, must be
waged by the masses of the people.
The spirit which inspired your fathers
at Bennington and Bunker Iill must
thrill you. The determination to gather
again to yourselves the privileges and
advantages which have been stolen
must be fixed ana immovable. You have
entered upon no holiday campaign.
The press OF the east, a powerful and
Influential force, is almost.solid against
YOU. Self interest and the combined
power of money will seek tc thwart
your endeavors. You will find the
united republican party giving you
battle ana the goldite democrats will
traitorously fire in your rear. There
will have to be concerted movement
by all men who believe alike, anu it
devolAes upon the men of Utah to take
| their fret step in that direction by re
electing RaWlins to congress-.
A MAN IS NEEDED WHO WILL EXECUTE
OUR WILL.
| It is conceded that he cannot be
moved by eXpediency or party clamor.
1t is admitted that he is brave enough
topsTiticise any man, no matter how
great nor how popular he may be who
is against US in this fight, And what
we want is man in congress. tried,
trus and fearless and not mere prom
iseS which tickle the ear when made and
which make the heart sick when they
are broken. A platform declaration is
nothing, unless you haYe the man who
will carry it into effect. The ringing
declarations Of conventions are for
gotten after the election has passed,
and unless the man chosen is plat
form himself the wishes of those who
named him are too frequently of no
avail. The strongest Of our men and
those who have been tried aud not
found wanting are needed to cope
with the eastern fnanciers, and the
people OF Utah should act wisely ano
for their own interests. | was sur
prised and disappointed the other day
when | read in the republican organ
of Utah that 1.-The republicans OF
Utah must make haste to put them
selves in accord with the republicans
of the east" We all know where the
republicans OF the east stand upon the
silver question. They are against us.
But l mad hoped and believed that
| the republicans of our own territory
would stand with US. Ii they are to be
"in accord" with the sentiment of the
east, then we must fight the battle
alone, for the battle must be fought out
and the right must be made to prevail.
If the republican candidate for con-
gress is ''in Accord with the views of
eastern republicans, then he Is not the
man to represent the farmers, miners,
merchants and working men OF Utah.
| He is an untried man. He is amblt-
| iOus and anxious for preferment and
the path to honor il America today is
unfortunately more easily Travelled If
one puts himself ''in accord with the
men of the east. The republican can
dGdate &ea not yet pro eli that he is
'beGter than his party He promised
US when no accepted the nomination
that he would not resign II elected. |
presume that by that remark he de-
sired us to understand that no conduct
of his party or his party leaders would
| force him to yield up his office in order
! to preserve his self-respect and his in
| dependence. Is he the man TO take up
the work which Rawllns has begun for
our interests and carry it TO success2
And that is the question which you
must ask yourselves when you come to
| vote.
SILVER MEMS INTEREST WITH DEM0C.
RACY.
You must also remem Der that the
party whose standard he bears is un
der the denunciatlon of the m0nied In
terests OF Wall street. In the empire
state, the republican party has nomi-
mated London banker for governor,
Hon. Levi p Morton. He has bank
in New York and he has bank In
Lopdon. In no eastern state has the
republican party sounded word in
convention for free silver, On the
other hand the democrats of Ohio, OF |
Michigan, of Illinois, Of Indiana, and |
other great states are for silver. |
Enough democratic state and territor- |
ial conventions haye declared for silver |
to control the next democratic ma
tional convention. 1t is safe 20 assume |
that the next national Campaign Will |
be fought with flee silver written upon
the democratic banners, unless the
cause of the people before that time
meets with the success it deserves.
The hope for silver men lies with de-
mocracy. Here In Utah the democratic
party has declared for Tree silver
whether any other nation wants it or
not. and that will yet be the slogan of
the national democracy. More than
that, the next democratic candidate
for president will be free SILVER man.
The democratic party has always
been the friend of silver. True there
have been reYerses-Just as there haye
been in tariff reform, but in view of
the record no reasonable man can COM
PLAIN of the democIacy's S record On this
question. individuals have differed
from the party, but the party has al
ways been right.
Senator John 2. Jones says
Having become fully convinced that the re-
publican party organization is unalterably
opposed to the free coinage OF silver at the
ratio OF Is to l or at all, except with the CON
s9nt of foreign governments and at ratio to

Speaker Crisp, (democrat,) says {
