MAKE US A KING TO
JUDGE US LIKE ALL THE Ma
TIONS." SAIDTHE JEWS,
And the Prophet Answered Them;
And He Will Take Your Fields and
Your Vineyards, and OIivsyards, Even
the Best of Them"

Our nobility-imitating aristocracy
who are in the saddle, clamor Sor an
international financial system. Like
the children of Israel they say
''make US king to judge US like all
nations" The prophet answered
them: ''And he will take your fields
and your vineyards, and your olive
yards, even the best of them" And
what else will an international syste m
do but reduce the people to the same
level of poverty wherever that money
system exists. If our money is inter-
national our industries must speedily
become international. The money OF
a country fixes the status of the indus
tries OF that country. Make our money
international, and we make the con-
dition OF the people international as
rapidly as the change can be brought
about. An international money will
flow to those places where the money
will buy the most merchandise or the
most labor, and poverty and low
prices will flow back to fill the vacuum
left by the money. With no impedi-
ments at national lines to check its
movement an international money
will equalize everything that is in
fuenced by money within its pre-
scribed bounds. An international
money means international poverty,
international class laws, international
special privileges, an international
aristocracy of wealth and privilege.
Our aristocratic rulers have been
clamoring for an international silver
convention TO adjust our silver to an
international standard, so that it can
flow from one country to another
without interruption by becoming
commodity, and pass current as legal
tender in all countries. This step
accomplished there is nothing to do
to complete the conspiracy but abolish
the greenbacks and silver certificates,
declare gold an international money,
which it practically is already, aud
delegate to national banks the sole
right of issue OF paper money, said
paper money to be guaranteed by the
United States. Their bank currency
would then circulate as readily in
Europe and the British Isles as ip this
and the clearinghouse of
this great money octopus would be
,hhscd to London. and that branch of
the business OF this country be trans
acted by cable.
A little more perfecting of their
plans and this giant conspiracy for
money, conquest and
will be accomplished, and
The navies and the arsenals will be
'ubverted to form a grand financial
empire and be used to maintain its
universal dominion. That the master
'pirits in the conspiracy against man
1ind are aiming at this consumma-
ion none can doubt who will take
pains to trace their stealthy move
nents for the last three quarters of q
century. As their plans succeeded
me after another it is only natural
hat their ambition for universal
conquest should grow. In this
country the conspirators have found
Wiling tools and an easy victim. Our
whole people virtually have become
o infatuated, grasping for dollars
'nly, that they have not discovered |
hat a greater grasper is following as
closely as their shadow, and taking
rom them all they can gather. Sta
isticians tell us that we have been
'dding enormously to the wealth of
he nation in the last third of a GEN.
ury. Where is this fabulous wealth?
q possession Of the money trust or
nancial empire of the world with the
ouse Of ROthschild as ruler by sue
ession.
And this is the king our people are
skiing for to '.judge us like all the
ations;" and conditions rising all
round us are speaking in the Ian
uage of Samuel, the prophet OF old,
And he will take your men-servsnts
nd your maid-servants and your
oodliest young men and your asses
nd put them to his work."
Who can look around him and be-
old the bread taken from the hand
labor and the poverty and want
'hich stalk at MONDAY and not con-
'ss that the words Of the prophet are
eing fulfilled this day?
Meanwhile subsidized press and
orrupted congress are crying out for
