all state power, consolidating into one
the day, and giving despotic power into
the hands OF the man who may call
himself president, but will WELD sway
greater than that of any despot on the
globe. This had been foreshadowed for
years, but the believers as to the In
tent have been few. 1t has only de-
rived positive shape from the decision
OF the nine oligarchs, who declare
(what Grover Cleveland for two years
has maintained), that the government
controls every foot OF the territory OF
merely provinces-and that whenever
that dictator, or president orders any
thing done, he not only has under his
command the army and navy and
treasury, and the judiciary and its un-
limited command Of millions of Hes.
sian deputy marshals to be bought from
the dregs Of humanity to murder all
who are pointed out as fit objects OF
executive vengeance-but the entire
militia of all the states are to be under
his absolute power-to be court-mar-
march, or to shoot down unoffendine
citizens, at the command Of the com
mander-in-chief.
1t has been started for purposes OF
creating popularity, rumor from time
to time-that Cleveland intends to be-
come candidate and to seek re-elec-
ton from the voters. Nothing so ut
terly idiotic would ever come from his
scheming brain. But there has been
nightly vision-the fruition Of years
of plans-the grasping Of the tangled
net Of deliberate ruin brought on the
country-which will develop itself by
force-but never by a ballot. II there
comes day of wretchedness, unbear-
able, irremediable, then you may ex-
pect to see the development OF the
scheme. The disorders will require q
firm hand to check the mob-the troops
will be quartered in every locality-the
elections will either not take place or
they will be shaped as directed, and
the result will be declared as has been
the case in France and elsewhere
that a monarchy is the only safe
method Of protecting the vastly rich

tunes from the blood and sweat Of the

plished the great despotic melo-drama
Of the century-with the tragedy an
nexed of an assassinated republic.
Will it come? That is response which
may be properly left to the decision Of
the citizens respectively. Jefferson
foresaw exactly what was to come. and
pronounced the destruction Of the
union to be already preparing seventy
five years ago, in the germ Of the
federal judiciary. Washington in his
adjuration to the people, meant to en-
body his thoughts for the benefit Of the
masses and not the classes, for the mil
lions and not the thousands, when he

gold, must get it back again:-el our
precious gold reserve would shrink.
A shrinking" of our precious gold
reserve cannot be thought of without
a shudder:-a simultaneous, unani-
nous, and enthusiastic shudder.
A shudder of this particular sort can
only be cured with bonds: nom
taxable, banking privilege, interest
bearing bonds
The moment these bonds are issued
the shudder quits. In fact we never
knew of a shudder which was more
amendable to treatment than the Wall
street shudder about our gold reserve.
It's like thunder and lightning in a
play at the theatre-it'll stop when
ever it is properly requested so to do.
Bonds having been issued and the
Wall Street shudder having been cured,
what next?
and another well regulated shudder in
financial circles-duly chronicled by
the hireling editors of the old party
papers.
This shudder, like the other, can only
be cured by issuing more bonds to get
the gold back once more from the raid
ers.
The government having got the gold
back from the raiders, the raiders gath
er up another lot of silver-purchase
notes and get the gold back from the
government again.
Every time this game is worked it
means bigger debt for you and your
children. 1t means higher taxes, and
darker homes. These bonds are your
debts, and the taxes you pay are the
profits the raiders have made by hid
ing away their wealth where it pays no
tax, draws interest from your taxes, and
| forms a basis for banking whereby
another profit at your expense is reaped.
When will this monkeying with the
gold reserve stop?
| When will the Government and the
raiders quit playing into each other s
hand?
Not till the bonds have been run up
to sum so enormous that your taxes
can no longer meet the interest
| To this limit they are going to go.
Beyond it they do not care to go. They
are not such fools as to kill the goose.
The syndicate which would not ap-
preciate the ownership of just such a
copiously idiotic goose as the American
taxpayer would be hard to please.
Very hard.
When 1 have the power to levy the
freight rate, can put it so high that ]
can leave you all the labor and the risk
while take all the profit.
When I have a monopoly of ISSUING
the currency, can fix such a charge
for the use of it, that all the profit viii
come to my bank, while all the risk, toi
and trouble will come to your store.
When have deal with the Govern
ment by which I pay no tax on m,
wealth, but, on the contrary, derive {
privileged income from your tax, all tn,

in the hope that our plans might be
completed, and they would soon see the
futility of opposing us. But our ex-
plantations have been answered by re-
newed efforts to usurp our prerogative
of governing them.
A people so irreverent and fanatical
are unfit even to serve an aristocracy
of such glorious wealth as we have
built up here in America.
We have warned them from time to
time of unwarrantable efforts to secure
jurisdiction over us. We have re-
minded them of our power to crush any
act Of congress or to quell any strike
or other disturbance. We have ap-
pealed to their devotion to party and
conjured them by the traditions and
precedents Of preachers and politicians,
to abandon these vagaries, disband
their unions and accept the situation
in life to which it has pleased God to
call them. But they are growing deaf
to sermons on humility and despise the
mysteries of finance.
We must therefore take measures to
hold them in subsection; if they can
not be induced to submit willingly
then we must use force.
We, therefore, the representatives of
the Bank of England and Wall street,
N. Y, owners of the United States, and
joint heirs with Baron Rothschild in

to the Supreme court for the constitu-
tionality of. our actions, do, in the name
and by the authority of Grover Cleve-
land and John Sherman, solemnly pub
lish and declare that the united money
power is, and Of right ought to be, alb
solute sovereign; and that bankers
trusts, syndicates and corporations
are henceforth absolved from all
allegiance to any law passed by
any congress or legislature OF
America: and that all political
power henceforth shall be held only
by the divine right of property. In
| witness whereof we mutually pledge the
| standing armies, guns and war-ships

| ing nations of the world, whose rulers
have adopted the single gold standard

Heavily Taxed France.

At this moment, when the French
budget is being discussed In the Cham
Der, and when the ministry proposes
new taxes in order to face the deficit
of 56,000,000 francs for the year 1885,.
it may be interesting to note that
France is the country which now pays
the highest taxes. 1t has also the larg-
est debt Of all, at the rate Of 662 francs
per head Of its Inhabitants. The rate is
AL francs in England, 365 in Austro-
Hungary, $50 in Italy, 351 in Spain,
162 in Russia, 270 in Germany, and 146
francs in the United States. The stand
ing national debt Of France amounts
to $4,000 ,000, 900 francs. to which must
be added the special debt contracted
by the departments, the cities, and the
communes or townships.

Clippings from the Editorials of Ton

Clippings from the Editorials of Tom
Watson.
BY the 1st of October the time dur
ing which the Rothschild bond-syndi-
cate hired itself to the government to
keep our gold reserve in repair will
have expired.
Then what are we to do?
Rothschild, and among 'em, charged
us only ten million dollars to keep our
gold reserve in repair from February
to October.
The time will soon be out, and our
gold reserve will need more carpentry.
Will it take ten more millions to repair
it eight more months?
And will it take ten more millions an
other eight months after that?
We had to borrow the money to pay
the first ten millions. We will have to
borrow the money to pay the next ten
millions. And so on from term to
term.
What will the end be?
Sixty-seven millions of people, worth
sixty billions of dollars, sold out to a
dozen or so bankers, and bound hand
and foot by written contract drawn
up by the Presidents lawy-partner!
That's the situation.
Are you proud of a government which
thus sells it's people?
Are you certain of your future lib
critics when you can thus be handed
over to the servitude of an insolent
syndicate of bankers?
1t needs no prophet to foretell your
future.
On and after October 1st the Wall
streeters will begin to raid your gold

to pay for silver bullion which bullion
the law said should be coined in suf-
ficient quantities to redeem said treas
ury notes, will be carried to the treas
ury by the raiders They will demand
gold for said treasury notes. The Law
says they can only demand "coin.'
Cleveland says that "coin" means gold
only.
Therefore the men whom the Law
