ware of placing the legislative control
of your financial policy In the hands OF
foreigners, they accuse US OF trying to
disrupt the policy of those VINO lVe

Yet my friends, it has been less than
two years since the secretary OF the
treasury employed London banker TO
protect the treasury of the United
States (applause), and more than thaE,
they came to congress with the propo-
sition in which these foreign bankers
joined offering the American people
S16, 900, 900 if they would change the set
tied financial policy of the United
States. Did you read that proposition?
They offered to take bonds ait one price
if they were payable in coin, but said
if they were made payable in god they
would then take them at a price that
would save the government $l6,0O0,OUO
in thirty years. What dad that mean2
1t meant that if the government would
do what lit had never done-if 1t would
make it's bonds payable IN gold that
they would pay the people OF the Uni
ted States $l6.O00.0eo. My friends, re-
peat the
LANGUAGE OF WASHINGTON:
I want you to beware of the wiles of
foreign influence and / assert, as he as
serted. that the most baneful Toes OF re-
| publican government are these foreign
| influences that are being brought INTO the
| legislation OF the United States. Great
applauSe.) This Is no simple matter.
| When the patriots of Greece were warn
! ing the people Of that nation that PhliIp
| of Macedoal was approaching, there were
! those then who were so tied up in their
! business relations with the Macedondans
| that they used hard names towards the
| people who abused the Macedomans. And
i tbncp tOHaV whose commercial
| and financial relations with the hnancierS
OF London are such that they would APP
! ply abusive epithets to those who warn
! the American people against nnanolal
| domination that is as severe, as merci-
less and as pitiless as political DOM
nation. (Renewed applause.) leave this
question with you. l know NOT what your
decision may be, but, my friends, can.
not but believe that the descendants or
those who declared this nation politically
| independents, will have the courage to de-
! clare this nation financially Independent
of every other nation upon earth. GRO

the declaration of Independence was
about to be signed, they. agreed that the

the names of it's signers were affixed, ana

and the people assembled waiting for the
