BETTER COME OYER, BOYS. |
The Democratic candidate for
governor of Iowa, in speech
last week, said the Republicans
demonetized silver and the Dem
Gratis were going to remonetize
it. The boss at the white house
says they are not going to do
anything of the kind. So there
you have it. In the meantime
the people, regardless of party,
will have to do tiff it is ever done.
Madison Independent.
We call Bro. Farnham's atten-
ton to the last sentence in his
pithy item. The people regard
less of party will do it. Will
they? Please explain how. In
this state the people are tied to
party by the election law, and in
dependent action presents so
many obstacles that the most en-
ergetic and enthusiastic reform
ers are discouraged from max
ing any attempts. If the Repub-
1ican and Democratic parties both
stand for so called sound mon
eY, which is rightly interpreted
as the permanent fastening upon
the country of the single gold
standard, what will the brother
and all who think like him do?
Will they at the critical time be
whipped into line by the party
lash, or will they go to- the third
party, which unequivocally de-
mands q restoration of the time
honored and we'll proven policy
of this country, the free, unlim-
tied and independent coinage of
silver and gold. If the Peoples
party would invite cooperation
of all those who are dissatisfied
with the gold policy and manifest
q willingness to meet the views
of conservative men by a modifl-
cation of their platform, making
the money and monopoly ques-
tions the prominent ones and
leaving other reforms to be
worked out as opportunity is
presented, we are of opinion that
the party lash of the old parties
would be unavailable and that
there would then be some chance
of the people accomplishing those
reforms that are so imperatively
needed for the restoration Of
prosperity .-Moorhead News.
We wish to say to Bro. Lam
phere and Bro. Farnham, and
the rest of the honest free silver
republicans, that the only thing
for them to do is to come RICH
over into the Peoples Party
There is where you will tinall,
land, brethren, anyway. W.
have been as strong a republica,
as any of you are now, or hav'
ever been, but when the scale
fell from our eyes and we say
the hidden mysteries of machin
politics, we soon became cor
vinced that no reforms contrar,
to the will of the bosses would b
enacted. The leading men an
platforms may promise in gene1
al platitudes any and all reforms
as they have done in times past
but they will never, cannot fror
the very nature of the case, Cal
ry out any Of these promises.
You know, or ought to know
we believe you willacknowledg
it to be- true-that all our leadin
officials in Nation or State are a
q rule owned soul and body b
some big corporation. And if b
chance some honest man is cleo
ed to an Office, some man thu
cannot in any way be controlled
why, he is killed off in some way
The machine kills him, and til
rank and file Of the party cannt
save him if they ever SO muc
desired to do so, for their infll
ence is exerted only. throug
Il the machine, and some none
boss turns the crank Of that.
Bro. Lamp here will call to min
