A LAST WORD

To the voters of the United States:
In the preliminary battle of the people
against plutocracy the people have al
ready won. In spite of an expenditure
Of money so large that the civilized
world stands appalled, at its magnitude
today, large majority of the people of
the United States are in open revolt
against the merciless gold standard and
the domination of the country by the
syndicated wealth of Europe and Amer
lea interested in securing or prevent
ing legislation and in controlling the ex-
ecution of the laws in their interest
All that is necessary to secure the reg
istering of the peoples will Is to see that
every voter comes to the polls and casts
IN unpurchased ballot. Many of the
millions collected by the syndicate have
been reserved for election day. Beaten
1t every point. the last resort of money
+ to buy the ballot of the voter by pur-
chasing his absence from the polls or
to coerce his vote by intimidation. To
prevent this is possible if every patriot
will do his duty. Every member of
\ club must go the polls early on the
morning Of election day, cast his bal
lot and remain there until the polls close
and the result is announced. Take care
that every voter gets to the polls and
casts his vote. Note down the name of
every absent voter. Let it be known
that the citizen who fails to vote, unless
prevented by extreme illness, has either
been purchased by the money Of the
corruptionists or is otherwise unworthy
~ be called a citizen. All signs indicate
the overwhelming triumph of the people,
and to no organization is the credit due
more than to the clubs, the peoples or
Ganizations, created for no selfish pur-
pose, but for battling for the liberties
zof the people as in the days of their
Founder. the illustrious author of the
declaration Of independence.
(signed) James X. Jones, chairman
national Democratic committee; Charles
:. Faulkner, chairman Democratic con-
Eressional committee; Chauncey F.
Black president national association
Of Democratic clubs; Lawrence Gardi-
uer. secretary.

KEEP THE PEACE

For four months the people of the
United States have bes2 profoundly in
| terested in the discussion and consider
alton of the n1omentoLs issues to be de-
cided at the ballot box today. Every
voter has had full opportunity to read
or hear full expositions of the views of
the contending parties. Every hamlet
has been visited by political orators,
and every newspaper has largely de-
voted its columns to reasons for asking
its readers support of its party. There
are very few intelligent men who have
not already formed their opinions. Ar
guments can now avail little All that
remains is to secure a full and free ex-
| preston of the wishes of the voting pop
ulation. 1t is the duty of every true
| American today to exercise his right as
an elector, and, as far as he can, to see
| that every other voter of his way of
thinking does the same thing.
While the time for discussion is past,
the work yet remaining is all-important
The friends of Mr.. Bryan have but two
things to fear today. One is the corrupt
use of money, and the other is disorder
at the polls. From the nature of things
the first will be extremely hard to de-
tect, but should be watched for with un-
ceasing vigilance and promptly and Wig
orously suppressed. The laws provide
appropriate penalties for such offenses.
and honest citizens of whatever party
should unite in condemnation of the
crime and apprehension of the criminal.
1t is of supreme Importance that the
day should not be marred by any scene
of disorder or violence. Defeated at all
other points, our opponents have been
vehemently asserting for weeks past
that the Democratic party was made up
of the lawess and turbulent classes,
whose triumph would be inimical to
good government. Every intelligent
man who thinks for himself knows that
such statements have no foundation in
fact. The Republican managers, how
ever, seem to rely upor the old maxim
that a lie we'll stuck to is as good as the
truth. There can be little question that
the constant reitera tion of such ISLANDERS
has had more or less effect upon the un-
thinking and timid. So far there has
been nothing to justify the abusive epi-
tnetS or 'anarcnlStS ana rioters,
which have been hurled at us, but dis
turbance at any polling place in the
United States today will unquestionably
be seized upon by our enemies as pre-
text for another "scare" No such op-
portunity must be given them. 1t is
probable that attempts will be made by
these pretended friends of law and order
to provoke alterations and lay the
blame upon the innocent. Such attempts
must not be permitted to succeed. Every
cool, level-headed Democrat, Silver Re-
publican or Populist should be about the
polls all day and send home those hav-
ing less self-control as soon as they have
voted. The presence of an excited
crowd is not only a menace to good or
der but will make it more difficult for
the right-minded to watch for and pre-
vent crooked work.
We have votes enough. Let us see
to it that they are not stolen from US by
corruption, intimidation or deceit.

THE IMPORTANCE OFT
The Importance of elect.

The Importance Of electiDg only de-
tenders of the cause of free silver coin
age today must be clear and certain to
.every one who desires to see the best in
terests of the people strengthened and
promoted. The one great issue with.
which voters have to deal at this time
is whether the business enterprises of
the country shall have a sufliciency of
money to prosecute themselves on lines
Of advantage to themselves, independ-
ent of those who deal exclusively in
money or be subjected to the manipu
lations of those whose business It is to
control the going and coming Of money
in the avenues Of trade and traffic in the
interest of themselves and uniformly to
the hurt Of the general public.
For twenty-five years the volume of
the peoples circulating money medium
has not kept pace with their business
requirements. In fact it has steadily
grown in inverse ratio to the demand,
The herald., 1896-11-03

| and with it there has been the most
| sweeping depreciation in commodity
prices that the commercial world ever
experienced. Today the people are
bound hand and foot to the money syn
dicates. The products of farm, factory
and shop are in distress because there
is not enough money in circulation to
meet their demands for money, which
obliges them to sacrifice their goods and
wares to secure that which should come
to them under the natural law Of money
supply and demand.
The business demand of the people for
money has outgrown the supply, and
consequently every business man is
obliged to pay premium directly or in
directly for it. Such condition of
things enables the money syndicates to
dictate terms to the producers and they
do it without mercy. The avaricious
hands of the manipulators of money cir
culation are felt by every one who pro-
duces merchantable article, and their
hands grow heavier from year to year.
But if the people will rise in their might
today and take hold of the reins of gov
ernment through the agency of William
J. Bryan, the chains of the money gam
biers will be broken, and they can
henceforth harvest the full of the results
of their own efforts.
The circulating money medium Of the
people is 'cornered" by Wall street and
unless the people break the corner and
make its reinstatement impossible by
returning silver to its natural place as
money of redemption, which they have
the opportunity of doing today, their
conditions of existence will grow more
and more oppressive. The question for
the people to settle today is one of great
Importance. The people are the pro-
ducers, and they need larger volume of
money in circulation to make their work
profitable to them. The non producers
nave control Of the agencies through
which money reaches the trade currents
and they permit ii to flow outward or
command it to go into hiding as shall
offer the greatest opportunity to control
the price of the products of the energy
OF brain and muscle. The election of
Mr.. Bryan will mean a sufficiency of
money for all legitimate uses, and his
defeat will mean the continue ton of the
conditions which have been so discour-
aging to producers labor and business
enterprises since the volume of the
country's money was cut in half through
the influence of the money-lending
class.
