Haul Down That British Gold
, Standard
Put Up the Stars and
Stripes!

That is our command to the editors
of New Jersey. Have you got those i'll
trinsic scabs on your eyes. II you have
pull them of.
Don't you know you are the uncon-
scious tools Of the biggest conspiracy Of
gold barons and bankers ever organized
on this earth. If you don't you should
know 1t. 1t is as true as gospel.
Don't you know that the head of The
British lion and his two front feet are
on the neck of Liberty on your silver
dollar, and tile head of the Eagle is
dropping on her brow? Look and you
will see it! One foot represents the
crime of 1873 when the British Bank
ers bought your Congress with $4,000
to prohibit the free coinage of silver.
True, silver has been ccined since
but in such away as to deceive nine out
OF every ten citizens in America. 1t
has been coined as token money to cir
culate just as your Township orders for
road work within the limit Of the
amount of taxes and expenses of the
Government, and being used that way
it does not matter if there "a not more
than one cents worth of silver in your
silver dollar. They have stopped the
coinage of silver in nearly every nation
and that throws The product on the arts
to sustain the price. If gold was strick.
en- down by such q law it would be as
cheap. 1t is Shylock's trick in finance.
See 1t. You are being deceived.
The other foot represents a Benedict
Arnold in the White House and a Jud-
as Iscariot at your national cash box
dealing out gold and gold only as final
redemption money, for all demand notes,
when there are over $500, 000, 900 of sill
yer in the treasury, besides 500, 100000
of notes. If he has not the gold the
law says he shall issue bonds to the
gold trust for it. They present notes
for the gold again and demand bonds
for the gold. That is the Internal mill
which is grinding out millions for the
gold trust, the bankers and bond hold
ers to be divided with the Benedicts
and Judases in office. That is the mill
which is making the millionaires, while
the farmers and labors of America are
furnishing the grist and being ground
to earth.
Farmers and laborers, if you are sat-
isfied with it stick to the single gold
standard. The professor Of political
economy in Princeton College tells you
to "work harder and spend less, and
prosperity will come" Have you not
been working and sweating hard enough
and getting poorer every day. You
know it and so does every body else.
Farmers, if you are not satisfied get
your pitch forks and pitch the tyraut
off. Laborer, if you are not satisfied,
get the sledge hammer of free silver
coinage and smash the machine. Strike
the Rocky Mountains with your magic
wands, the ballots, on election day for
free coinage of silver, and those hun
dreds of millions Of dollars in the noun
tains and the U. S. Treasury will come
gushing forth and be as good as gold to
bring prosperity and happiness into
every home in the land, except to the
gold barons, the bankers, the bond hold
ers. the stock gamblers, the trusts and
%monopolies.
Thus you see SILVER has been strick-
en- down by law and usage as a final re.
demption money of this world. France
and Germany are in the bonds of the
British Gold Barons, now like America,
Half of the metallic sound money for
final redemption in the world has been
put under the band of the law and the
feet of the British lion. That is the
trouble. Pull the intrinsic scales from
your eyes. Thus all the credit money
on earth is put On gold for redemption.
That doubles the demands for gold and
doubles the value of the gold dollar.
See Shylock's trick.
That is what has shrivelled the value
Of all property in America to one-half
in 20 years. See it.
That has doubled the wealth of the
gold barons and bankers and put Amer
lea in slavery. VIII you continue to
be slaves to the money powers of this
earthp
All hail Andrew Jackson Bryan who
will smite the money powers of this
earth and make the Shylocks give
back their stolen golden dust.
Wake up, ye sons of America, or they
will double their gold dollar again in
ten years and shrivel your property to
one-half its present value. When they
have planted the single gold standard
completely on you by having the word
"gold" put in your bonds, they arenow
payable in silver, and the words gold
