Their thwart the will and wishes Of the
majority, as Senators Wolcott, Chand-
Ter, Dubois and Stewart OF. al. have
foretold2
Let an unbiased public answer,
whose course is nearest right, and
most beneficial to party and country.
When party convention, through
the Vaccinations Of a minority, is
tweedled and bluffed, in the interest
OF foreign spectators, out Of pro-
claiming, as directed by the people,
and this cupidity and treachery is
persisted in for years at the destruct-
i've expense of the people, what other
course is left to the people but resent
ment by seeking independent redress
at the expense OF the psrty2 Self
preservation and manhood impel sep
sration and reorganization. Will the
gold standard press please tell us
il the gold basis of the Astors. Van
derbilts, Carnegies, Havemeyers,
Goulds, Wall street, Lombard street,
and Great Britain, is the Utopia poll
cy for prosperity, why it is that thir-
teen governments have a gold and
and silver basis at ratio OF from Is
or 16 to !, and only four governments
and ten deE endencies have a gold
standard based with silver as a sub
sidisry coin9
Tell us why the United States, the
greatest, and until recently the most
successful nation on earth, should
pander to or pattern after the policy
or manner of any foreign government
or interest that invites us to pay trib-
ute to them2 We gained our exist
istence and prosperity in spite Of
them! And tell us, above and beyond
all, why we should in anything be
subject to, dependent on, a partner
with, patron of, either in politics,
commerce or religion, law manners,
customs, industry, products, arma-
ment, ethics or etiquette, Of any fiend
and enemy Of ours and Of mankind
both in war and in peace, Great Brit.

She Is the hyens Of nations; detest
ed at home and abhorred abroad Hel
friendship begets disorder and hel
familiarity is death or subsection.
All that we are was wrought from
her through the direst sacrifices o.
our most precious sons, and of bill
lions of dollars Of property. She
murdered our people, she robbed oul
coasts, pillaged our homes, burned
our cities and gave aid and succor tC
our enemies.
Our existence is o menace to her
and our prosperity is her ghOstly ter
ror She breads and fears us. She
would strike the blow for our destruc
ton If she dared. But to control anC
conquer us she wills and to pccom
pllsh it she fawns and seeks TO Obtain
by political and commercial diploma
cy and in investments that she coulC
never hope to achieve in mortal com
bat.
She is aided in her "fawning'
schemes by her Tory allies in thil
country, the Mugwumps, the Cleve
land mercenaries, the goldbugs anG
and their southern sympathizers, al
Of whom are free traders. She hal
already obtained stronger foothold
and a greater interest here than sht
had in 1776, in 1872, or IN 1882.
To accomplish her nefarious pur.
pose she has expended millions Of
dollars. with the result of the demon.
etization Of silver and the passage Of
the Wilson bill. 10 further accom-.
plish her purpose she will expend
millions of dollars to corrupt our
politicians.
1t wlllirequire more patriotism and
greater vigiIence for the future to
protect ourselves from the covetous
sggressions Of Great Britain than at
all times previous. Give us nothing
but American money, American pro-
lection, American industry, strict
Americsnism and eternal vgllancel
Vive Wolcott, Teller, Dubois, Vest
Jones, Bland, Walker. ingalls,, Baker,
Ady, et al Yours for country and
prosperity. P. Il. CoNEY.
