National and State, and upon this rock
we build our political church and Populism

we stand with Andrew Jackson and
the present Democratic administration
| for gold as a measure of values, and as the
best and most stable yet discovered by hui

lawmakers that this country shall take
no backward step upon this question, but
to the contrary, that the gold standard of

I'VE favor honest bi-metallism and the
use of both gold and silver as money of
the country and the largest coinage of
silver consistent with the safety of our
financial system and the preservation of
an honest dollar, worth 100 cents at all
times and in all countries. We demand
that every dollar in circulation among the
people, whether of gold or silver, or paper
as It's representative, shall possess at all
times equal purchasing and debt paying

take long for the people OF that place to

bated over by the court and IL Is under
stood the case will be appealed To the

The case is this: The late Mr.. Ralph

Hayward, David and George W. He also
left to David, Arnold's farm in Scituate,

Mrs. Hayward had s2C0 in cash and would
come in for her equal snare of property
situated In Pawtucket at their mothers

says she has been Tilted, as the old home
stead and Arnold's farm are worth a
round 5000 each while she only received
ZOO cash, with no other prospect
for the future, than her equal share Of
the property in Pawtucket.

"It is shame and disgrace for these

idleness, to stir up this thing again.
