the millions has made the country
richer since 1878, but the increase has
gone to the millionaires.
Chicago Dispatch Dwight L. Moody
will spoil mighty good evangelist for
the sake of making very poor poll,
tician if he undertakes the conversion
of the Democracy.
Nashville Sun: Bryan goes out to
meet the people. Hanna goes out and
hires the people to call on Mckinley.
1t will be the same way on election
day, except that the people will refuse
to- be hired.
St. Louis Republic: The meanest
case of political coercion is reported
from the Homestead mills, in Penn
sylvania, where the bosses not only
made.the men 60 to Canton, but com,
PEELED them to buy their railroad tick
cts. 1t is hard enough to have to take
a pilgrimage to Mckinley on free
pass.
Evansville Courier: If France could
maintain the parity of two metals
when the output of gold was three
times, or as Chevalier says, five times,
the output of silver, cannot the United
States, the wealthiest and most power
full nation on earth, maintain the pari-
ty when the relative value of the out
put of the two metals is almost the
same?
Nashville American: Gold is a
runaway. 1t will not do the work OF
money. 1t prefers to skulk and hide
and dodge about, robbing those who
need its help. 1t ought to be made to
perform the work of money or denied
all the privileges of mo oey. The peo-
pie want money as a servant, not as a
master. They want a honest SER
want, not runaway and robber.
Nashville American: The corpora

and insurance companies, Stock and

living by honest labor vote TO tasten
these leeches upon themselves ?

the electoral college for Bryan to off
set the 10 votes of Maine and Yer
mont for Mckinley.
Chicago Dispatch: Two years ago
unemployed workingmen were walk
ing to Washington as soldiers of the
commonweal. Now they are riding
to Canton in special trains. Who says
times are not better?
Nashville Sun: Chattel slavery was
not more offensive to born abolition
ist than political slavery is to every
man who is fit to be free, and when
the issue is made which the monopo-
lies are now making, it inaugurates an
irresistible conflict between plutocracy
and the people, conflict that must
be settled by the complete triumph OF
the one or the other.
Kansas City Times: The esteemed
widow of Senator Plumb, of Kansas,
cannot vote for Bryan, but she has
done the next best thing by sending
$500 to the Democratic campaign fund
to aid in his election.
St. Louis Republic The returns
so far received indicate the biggest
majority ever given in Missouri and II
the rate of increase exhibited by the
poll of number of representative and
typical districts is maintained, free
coinage will win in Missouri by ma
jority not far short of 100000.
indianapolis Sentinel: Mr.. Bryan
