THE WORK OF THE ENEMY.

THE WORK OF THE ENEMY.
Perhaps we have already used
enough space in trying to show how
the organized shylockism of the
country is seeking to fasten and per-
manently weld the Cleveland-Sher-
man Carlisle Rothschild gold stand
ard-sweating system on the people.
But we wish, for one more time, to
emphasize the fact and to say some
thing Of the methods employed, and
then leave the whole matter to the
consideration and conscience of all
who read the CAUCASIAN. If what
we shall show does not arouse the
people among which this paper
circulates, it may be set down as q
fact that they are too stupid and
doltish to comprehend what is going
on, or to understand the great danger
threatened.
We have already referred to the
organisation Of millionaires which
calls itself the "Reform Club" This
club has headquarters at 81, William
street, New York. This is the locality
in which Cleveland had his law Office
1t is where his former partner nov
has an office. The chairman Of thi.
"Reform Club" is C. s. Fairchild
who was Secretary of the Treasury
during Cleveland's first term. Ever.
member Of the club is a banker
specularor or gambler.
We recently told how this clu1
wrote letters to nearly all the coun
try papers regardless of politics
Offering to do their printing free if tn
papers would circulate the "Reforr
Clubs ideas. These millionaire
can afford to spend immense sums o
money for this purpose and they ar
spending it. The executive commit
tee of the club recently made re
port of the work it has done and in
tended to do. The CAUCASIAN ha
secured copy Of this report, an
the extracts taken from it and printe
below are interesting. They sho,
how the goldugs are working an
forcing their papers and falsehood
before the people.
If these facts do not awaken tn
Populists and reformers to som
action in seeing that their ow
papers are more widely circulated
and the baneful effects of TIL
pernicious goldbug literature coul
teracted, the great, coming fight wi
be lost to the people.
The report tells about arrang
ments for having speakers to canva'
whole States. 1t has sent out eigl
hundred and thirty-two thousan
"goldbug" books since Decembe
This, however, is q small part of IL
work done. In division 8, the r
port says: .-s.
''The plan for broadside supplement su
ply outlined in our last report and approv
BY the committee in March has already 20
into successful operation, and we are nc
supplying every two weeks, properly dat
81 -..kA Al
respectively circulating them, broadsi
supplements sufficient to accompany the fl
editions of two hundred local papers in eve
part of the country, most largely in I
south, the west, and the southwest. In Il
way, at . minimum of expense, the sou
currency literature is carried direct into I
homes of rural voters As . part, in m,
cases, Of the only paper which they tai
and which they therefore read from beg
to end, an&lsome 400. 900 full page sheets
sound currency literature distributed "a
fortnight"
This ought to arouse the resel
ment of every honest farmer in t
country. Just notice how these go
bugs speak of the rural eoter and h
they talk about getting their
published in the only paper the ''ru
voter" takes. Nobody but mis-
able. dwelling idiot wants any bet
proof than this that the goldbugs
trying to keep the people fooled.
Division A, Of this goldbug rep
says:
