THE BRYAN BANNER.

By John MeEdddeH.
Raise the Bryan banner
And float IL to the breeze;
He Is the workman's champion
From the Black Hills to the seas.
From the Hudson TO the Rio Grnde
His banner we'll unfurl,
We will place him in the chair Of state,
The greatest in the world.
Raise the Bryan bannerl
We men who till the soil;
The nations debt you have TO pay
That gold-bugs now despoil
With endless cham of gflt-edged notes
They pump the nations treasure,
That they try Duke TO buy
For petted charming daughters pleasure.
Raise the Bryan banner
You veterans, tried and true;
stand by the side of labor
As soldier boys should do.
since money bugs and labor
Have got into this fight,
The Boys in Blue are always true
our nations wrongs TO right
Raise the Bryan banner!
Every honest knight of Labor;
Protect your wife and family
And then assist your neighbor
This is the nations tug OF war,
That the ballot must decide,
In favor Of the workingman
Or gold in all its pride
Raise the Bryan banner!
on every railway in the land,
BY the engineer and stoker,
And every other man.
And tell those railroad magnates
That their coercion you'll remember
By voting for Bryan and Sewau
On the third day of November.
Raise the Bryan Banner!
All you who would be free,
And tell the tricky politician
That their cunning game you see
While they slip a golden nugget
From beneath the lions paw,
They would sell the toiling masses
For TO fill the lions jaw.
Raise the Bryan bannerl
In every factory and mill;
Float it in all the valleys
And high on every hill,
That those who run may plainly read
This is our resolution,
Equal Justice unto all
And guard the Constitution.
Raise the Bryan banner!
And nail 1t to the mast,
Since with the toiling masses,
His anchor he has cast
Man the ropes. spread the sails,
For our captain is a jewel,
Over the silver wave, he viii US save
With his chief mate, Arthur Sewali
Raise the Bryan banner.
For surrender we will never
To those highwaymen the bankers
VINO say, sItHu anu ueiiNel
Unto us your nations bonds,
For Rothschild wants the key,
That he may lock all who flock
To him on Bonded knee
Raise the Bryan banner!
And denounce those vultureS that
Sucked our nations Treasury
So they got plump and fat,
And when they were well featherei
They did befoul the nest.
Now, leave it to the voters
For they can tell the rest.
Raise the Bryan banneri
And give three hearty cheers;
since the gold-bugs they borrowed
From the crocodile their tears,
With which to cry for labor
Whom they aid in every strife.
By handing him to Pinkerton
To ease him of his life.
Raise the Bryan banneri
1t is the emblem of the nation;
Let gold and notes and silver.
Be of equal valuation.
Red stands for gold, blue for notes,
White is a silver tag,
Let no one dare defaee star
From this great nations flag.

Rhematic pains. advised him to try
a bottle of the Yager's Liniment, he
thought it would be useless, said he
had tried almost everything and could
get no relief. insisted on his trying
It and informed him if it did not re-
licve him should cost him nothing.
This was about P. NJ. He took
bottle and started home, he was
hardly able to walk. ] saw nothing
more of HIM until bright and early the
next morning, when he came into our
store walking as lively as could be
with no signs of suffering about him.
inquired about the Liniment, he said
it was the best stuff he ever used,
would not take S. for the bottle. Said
lie got home almost done up and as
soon thereafter as he could he applied
the Liniment, end it gave him almost
instant relief, before retiring he ap-
pied it once more, went to bed and
Slept soundly all night, and in the
morning bathed the parts affected
again and at present felt no pain
whatever. This was about four or five
weeks ago. see the party every few
days and he says he is not troubled
with Rheumatism any more"
