AN APPEAL TO
SILVER MEN.
Rev. Baylus Cade Lets Loose His
Mind and Calls For Common
Sense and Unity.
TWO PARTIES ARRAIGNED.

struction Of the money quality,
which silver possessed, when it was
the
PEER OF GOLD
IN the money of the Republic Ii is
certain that the money quality of
silver was destroyed to increase the
value of every species of national
and other Indebtedness. Ii is GER
tain there can never again be an
era Of prosperity in THIS country, SO
long as our statesmen and politicians
are willing to do the
BIDDING OF ENGLAND,
and compel our people to pour their
wealth into the laps of English and
other foreign capitalists.
The above propositions are evil
dent. They need nothing IN the
way Of elaboration or argument to
make them more evident, or to add
to their force. The man who does
not admit them to be evident is
either incapable of seeing and feel
ing the force of any proposition
whatsoever, or lse he is controlled
by
SOME MOTIVE OF INTERESTS,
which leads him to deny that they
are evident.
To put it plainly, the man who de-
nies that the above propositions are
evident is either ignorant, or blind
ed to the truth by private greed, or
by party passion.
which will now lay down, which
are equally evident. and equally
forceful, with those above laid down.
1t is certain that the remonetiza-
tion and free coinage of silver will
never come-can never come-to
the people of this country through
the Republican party. That party
will be called, by impartial and pas
sionless history,
THE CRIMINAL PARTY,
which first obeyed orders from Eng
land, and consummated the crime of
sllve:'s destruction in this country,
in 1873. That party has resisted.

opportunities to justify and perpet.
