the courage to express them. We o

leader who is, like the fathers we're
for America and an American none,

IL the gold standard is TO prevail
then the greenbacks and Treasur,

they must go. What do Harrison
Mckinley, Reed, Morton, Allison
say' Are they in

debt Of the nation five hundred mil
lions of dollars. What are the views
Of the Republicans named on this
bonded debt issuef The masses OF
the party have views on this issue.
THESE MEN NAMED ARE SILENT,
and that is why the demand is going
up for leader.
Oul party has come to the forks OF
the road. We have reached a point
where patriotism, honor and states.
manship are indispensable. Our
fathers, when they founded the re-
public, gave us a chart drawn by
master minds. They made our money
system for us-a system which they
intended should be as permanent al
the government. They intended il
to be
AS SACRED AS THE FLAG.
| hold that to make war on thai
money system is just as much ar
act of treason as to make war on the
flag.
In an evil hour our leaders dis
carded the chart our fathers gave
US. They concluded that Sherman
and Cleveland knew more abou
money than Hamilton, Jefferson ant
Washington. Sherman and Cleve
land listened to the siren song suns
by John Bull, who, unable to con
quer us on land or on sea, proposes
through these men, to make US
CAPTIvEs TO HIS MONEY SYSTEM.
Our fathers were for America ant
an American money system. The,
adopted the great Declaration of In
dependence. 1t may be necessar.
for US to adopt a second one in 1896
Shall the Republican party return
to the chart our fathers made. O
follow the one made by John Bull
and his gold d-standard advocates il
Americag We have
COME TO THE FORKS OF THE ROAD.
What answer does Sherman make t.
Cleveland's gold issue? What repl,
does Mckinley, Reed, Morton, ALI
son, Harrison make? Can it be pos
sible that there is no difference be
tween Cleveland and these SO Gale
Republican leaders7
If there be a difference, what
it? We who are to follow have
right to know just what the differ
ence is. The day of subterfuges ha
ended. The era of make shifts ha
gone by. The masses demand breaC
not a stone; principles, not policy
Americanism,
NOT TOADYISM TO ENGLAND.
They are determined to have an issu
with President Cleveland on hi
gold-standard-an issue SO plai
that he who runs can read.

The Republican party is doing
about the same amount of growing

party did in 1892, andit viii result
about the same way. The money
power has both old parties by the

them. If you want the people rep

The Bank Got IL AZ Last

Sentinel
Harriet Moore, of Lancaster, Pa,
had no confidence in banks, ard SO
carried $50, 900 In notes and securi-
ties carefully sewed into q belt
which she wore around her waist.
A Lancaster dispatch Of the l9th,
says of Harriet Moore:
ION Saturday President Hartman,
of the Lancaster Trust company,
was appointed trustee for the woman.
He learned from relatives that she
carried her entire fortune in q belt
around her waist.
The court directed the woman to
be taken to an asylum, where the
money will be taken from her and il
will then be placed in the bank to
her credit"
How kind of the court to appoin,
q banker as ''trustee for the woman.'
And how delightfully."- pleasant fol
the trustee" to have that $G0, ,0Ot
"placed in the bank to her credit,
so that the bank can have the use oi
it for speculative and other purposes
Served the woman right, of cour4e
She had no business with money
which the hanks can't control.
She had no business to lose conf
dence in the banks, anyway.
Let it be understood that peopl'
who lose confidence" in banks ar
apt to be declared lunatics, b.
chucked in An asylum and hav'
their money taken from them b.
force and 'placed in the bank 4
their credit"-thouRh "credit" ma.
be the only thing they may eve
have to show for it.
1t isn't safe in this country to re
fuse to patronizs the banks.
| Let all people who have NOR
money than they need from day :
day take warning by the fate Of Ha,
riet Moore.
i For "the court" and the bank
run this country. and don't you fol
get it.

A tramp struck Mobile, and in ask
ing for q job was referred to parties
owning an expensive pump, which
had gotten out of order, and no one
seemed able to fix it. His offer to
fix it for a few dollars was taken
at first as joke, but finally he was
given the job, and when he had
quickly set it right, he pointed out
to the owners his own name cast in
the iron.
He was indeed the maker of the
pump, and at tho time was prosper
Gus manufacturer, but losses in
business, together with other
reverses had reduced him to q
journeyman again, and hard
times had thrown him out of en-
ployment, leaving him, like thou
sands of others, unable to work fo1
himself or others, and finally forced
him into tramping in search of work.
Under the wise % laws of Mobile
he could have been arrested and
punished for having no visible
means of support, being classed as 8
vagrant, and thousands of men IL
similar situations have, in the last
few years, been sent to the rock pilt
or to the coal mines, from all ovel
the South.

The Action Of The National Alliance
Changes in Platform.
The National Farmers Allianc and
Industrial Union, which was recent
ly in session eliminated the "sub-
treasury plan," and the demand for
an increase of the circulating me-
dium to $50 per capita. Resolutions
were adopted opposing the refund
ing of the Pacific railroad debt, and
agreeing to meet next year at Dallas.
A committee was appointed to ap-
pear before the proper congressional
committee to complain of alleged
outrages and murders on the Max
we'll land grant in New Mexico and
in Colorado, the Des Moines river
grant and the Sierra forest grant in
California. Alliance members who
lived on these grants had com.
planned to the national organization
that they were illegally evicted in fa-
vor of corporations, and the ALI
ance now proposes to call the atten.
tion of Congress to these cases.

In the general rejoicing over the
splendid demonstration of the na-
tion's financial independence the
scandals attending the bond sale
should not be overlooked.
An investigation Is imperatively
necessary. The public has right
to know the wherefore of all the
mystery and secrecy that attended
the syndicate negotiations. IL ought
to know who invited Mr.. Morgan to
Washington for consultation, whom
he saw there, how he learned that
the executive department" desired
to get not 800, 900, 900 merely but
$500 ,00O, 600 of gold, who gave him
the assurance that the bonds could
be had on "about the terms" of the
bunco sale of last year, and who
told him that they were to be for
twenty-nine instead Of thirty years.

to demand that the Secretary Of the
