protect the people Of this country
from the evils ever attendant upon
the debasement Of the national cur

thy. We congratulate the people
upon the revival of prosperity every

assert that the industrial depression
with which we have been afflicted
during the past three years is charg-
able to national legislation enacted
by the republican party. The pur-
chase of silver to be stored In the
treasury, and the enactment of un-
Just tariff laws, enriching 9 few ia

ceived from . republican administra-

formed In violation OF self.evident
laws Of political economy has been
won. Every struggle against In

never endured In y ain. The lesson
OF the cause and effect has been thor
oughly learned and We are willing to
abide by the decision Of an intelli-
gent people who are now entering
upon . period Of prosperity that will
prove both substantial and endur.
