HAS ONE THOUSAND MEMBERS
Independent Free Silver Club Gaining
AccessiOns to the Roll of
Members.
Voters of Every Trade and Profession
Pledge Their Votes to William
j. Bryan.

l.
has nearly 1000 members, each of whom
has pledged himself to support the can
didates for president and vice president
who are in favor Of the free and unlim-
tied coinage of both silver and gold, at
the ratio of 16 to 1, independent of the
action of any other nation.
Recently, as the campaign has grown
warmer and the election of Bryan has
become assured, the membership has in
creased very rapidly. A perusal of the
list of members is very encouraging to
every advocate Of free coinage, for it
shows that all classes Of people will sup
port Bryan; that IS per cent of the
republicans of the county will vote
against Mckinley; that organized labor
10 for free coinage almost unanimously;
that the employees Of the railway COM
panies are independent and not in.
huenced by the declarations of the man
agement and that the same condition
prevails among the employees of all other
corporations; and, in brief, that 80 per
cent OF the total vote of Cascade county
will be cast for Bryan.
So far as the state and county tickets
are concerned, the members of the club
are in no wise pledged, but large ma
jority of the republicans who have
joined the club express themselves as
opposed to candidates who dare not be
either men or mice and state that they
will not vote for any man who has no
principles.
