constitutional"
The former statement by the writer
that the only fault with the greenbsck
was the exception clause is erroneous,
as w. G. Nelson, of Hillsboro, o., sug-
gests. The assertion was an oversight
on the part of the writer who does not
believe that the greenbscks or paper
money of any kind should contain any
promise by the government to give the
holder a quantity of some commodity
or presentation. There is little more
reason for promising to keep gold or
silver on hand with which to redeem"
greenbacks than for promising to use
horses, or wheat, or calico, for the
same purpose. AS was said in the law
books long ago, money is its own

EDITOR ADvoCATE:-"In the council
Of many there is WISDOM" and some
times confusion.
Our party is composed Of those who
are united on one issue-equRl rights
to all. How to best obtain them, seems
to be the question each reformer in his
own way, is trying to solve. All agree
on the evils that exist and are rightly
ready to condemn them. The demo
republicans admit there is something
wrong, and are continually asking, "HoW
will you fellows remedy the svils?" Each
Of us has his own peculiar remedy. All
agree upon the object to be obtained
and the general mode to obtain it, but
to the common old party voter who
votes for party regardless OF principles,
and can grasp but one idea at q time,
our differing upon which is the greatest
evil, and the one we first should correct,
to him we seem divided. We have
the land question, the single tax, money
question, railroads and other questions
Can we not merge all into one word and
cover the entire field with one plank, 90
that the dissatisfied, unsnlightened
demo republicans can grasp our princi-
pies and all Of our singlS.plsnk party
can be satisfied. Tee curse of the ns
tion is monopoly and the plank I would
offer is:
Whereas, Monopoly controls every
branch Of business, either directly or
indirectly, OK this nation, in favor Of the
classes and against the masses, and is
the natural outgrowth OF chartered
rights granted to money getting corpora
tions; therefore, be it Resolved, That
the above named chartered rights shall
be returned to the people, and hereafter
no chartered right shall ever be granted
to any corporation within the United
States.
know many Of my Populist brethren
at first will say this is too sweeping; that
this and this is the corporation that is
grinding me, that the other corporation
is all right. But hold, my friend, that
other corporation is very young or it
also has it's iron heel on some poor
brother, and will soon grow into a mo
nopoly or break and fall, and in the mo
nopoly or fall some one will suffer.
Again, some one will say there is this
and that enterprise that can only be run
by a corporation. Correct; we have
school district, town, city, county, state
and nation to run such business. Then
the question comes, how would you re-
turn the chartered rights to the people
without conAscating their right /
