Why should Mr.. Vanderbilt be in

His life and body will have the same
protection that every other man has,
and really, in this respect, he expects
no more, ard not a penny of his con-

he is to have any more in that respe 1t.
This being true, then, what is the OBJ

property interests are at stake, are
they not? This Is the motive, then,
that opens his pocket book or treasure

return for that contribution in the

policy that will protect his property
interests. No other motive actuated

50. Because the vage-earner viii
be benefited most by silver and the
Wall street peoples decline.
81. Because all the labor ergani-
cations have Arrayed themselves on
the side Of free silver. and they gen
orally know their business
35. Because the capitalists have
all arrsyed themselves on the side of
gold, and they generally know their

SO. Because wages have fallen IL

81. Because the goldites resort to
shallew sneers instead of argument.
3s. Because there is not enoug Il
gold in the world to do one months
business-only 50 50 per capita of
the world.
80. Because there is only So 90
pe- capita in this country, counting
all kinds of money, and less than
half of that is in circulation, the
rest being tied up and boarded.
40. Because free coinage will raise
the price of silver by giving it use
and cheaper gold by taking away
tho demand.
Al. Because Blaine said the main
tenance of gold standard would
produce wide. spread disaster and
his prediction came true within
eighteen years.
AZ. Because the silver mines never
yet aud never will produce more
than enough silver 10 supply the
worlds nations with coins and the
arts with silverware, and there can
be no overproduction.
43. Because it will not injure ou~
foreign credit: but will improve il
and invite in foreign capital by cur
increased prosperity, just as capital
is now rushing to Japan.
A. Because only about 4 per cent.
OF our business is with foreign ma
tons and part of that is with nations
that favor silver.
45. Because Mckinley says it will
cause an oversupply Of money, thus
raising prices; while Harrison says
it will drive gold out, making money
scarce and thus lowering prices.
46. Because the Hon. Bourke
Cochran says both of these are wrong
and that the London prices of silver
will make the price here, aud conse-
quently prices of all commodities
here will vary as the London prices
varies.
AZ. Because free coinage will
benefit the people of the silver States
only in common with the people of
the whole United States, giving to
all only that which the act Of 1875
took away.

and kept the purchasing power OF

Over Electoral Fusion
Trying to Breed Diasension.

-Hanna's Emissaries ut work In Nearly
Every State Where Electoral Fusion Has
Been Arranged.
| Special to The Caucaslsn.f
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. 10th, 1885,
During the last week q joint electoral
ticket has been arranged in West vir-
ginis, by which the Populists get the
electors-at-large, and the Democrats
the four district electors. This ar
rangement makes West Virginia Ger
tain, while before the Mckinley peo-
pie were claiming the State. So far,
joint electoral tickets have been made
In twenty-eight States, i'm nearly
| every one OF which the Peoples party
has secured larger proportion of the
electoral vote than the strength of the
respective parties would seem to JUS
tify.
The Republicans are greatly chag-
rined over the arrangements recently
made in Indiana and West Virginia.
Through their emissaries they did ev-
erythlng in their power to prevent
joint electoral tickets from being made
In these two States; and now, have
these same emissaries at work in these
two States, as well as in nearly every
| other State, trying to breed dissensions
| and get as many Democrats and Pop
| ulists as possible so rebel against these
joint electoral tickets. under one pre-
| text or another. In fact, joint eiec-
| tOral tickets have been arranged in q
| sufficient number of States to make
| the defeat of Mckinley and the gold
standard certain. Mark Hanna reali-
zes that his only hope now is to try to
prevent the people from supporting
| these joint electoral tickets. The pa
triOtism of the voters can be depended
upon, however, to defeat this last hope
and scheme TO fasten the gold stand
ard upon the nation.
HOW THE SITUATION STANDS.
The outlook has greatly improved
| during the last ten days. The reac-
tion has set in all over the country
against the Republican Doodle cam
pal gn. The masses of the voters have
begun to realize that the monopolists
and trusts are putting up millions OF
dollars to try to buy the election in Or
der that these trusts and monopolists
can fatten upon the masses of the peo-
pie for another four years. InfOrma.
| ton received at the headquarters ol
the Peoples Party and Of the Demo
cratic party, so far, indicate that the
| following States are almost absolutely
safe, with the prospects Frightening

A Forecast.
A. Milo Bennett in The Bimetallist.)


Dear Sir: My business has taken
me into almost every part of the
country duling the past two years,
and basing an estimate on the senti-
ment of the people as l have found
it, submit enclosed forecast of the
election.
It is safe to count the solid South
with 152 votes for Bryan, because
Democratic majorities there have
always been certain, and people in
that section are more thoroughly
aroused this year than since the
war.
By comparison of the State
votes Of 1890, 1892, 1894 and 1895,
the Democratic vote in that section
has been steadily maintained with
very small losses, while the Popu-
lists have drawn mostly from Re-
publican ranks. AS the Populists
and Democrats have fused this year,
this makes Democratic pluralities
all the more certain.
| Pennsylvania's labor vote will go
for Bryan, because the workingmen
are not such dummies as the Repub.
lican press takes them to be; and the
same IS true of Illinois and::Indiana
Election returns also show con.
clusively that the Populist vote oI
the Western States comes mostly
from the ranks of dissatisfied Repub
licans, as the Democratic vote i.
nearly as large as formerly, Will,
the Republican vote is greatly de
creased, and in one or two States il
almost entirely wiped out.
The largest number of votes so IA
polled by the Populists was in Kan
sas, 1853 I'LL; Texas, 159, ,224; Nortl
Carolina. fusion, las, 1884; Nebraska
81 ,815; Georgia, 96,888; Minnesota
81 ,931; Alabama, 82,283; Colorado
1912; Virginia, 81, ,239; California
81, ,3O4; while Ohio cast 52,675, an
Michigan and other doubtful State
cast enough Populists votes to dete,
mine an election.
; This meaps that the balance Q
power in Kansas, Nebraska, Mime
sofa, Colorado and California, doub
, full States generally, is held this yea
by the Populists, and that fusio
will make these States solid fe
Bryan. Both Republican delegate
r to the Republican Convention, an
. Democratic delegates to the Dem'
cratic Convention were instructe
for silver, which means that Il
majority in both parties in the'
i pivotal States, are for silver ar
Bryan.
q Basing my estimate purely ON Il
q sentiment Of the country, outside
q New York and Chicago, feel mo
ally certain that it will be -four
a nearly correct.

just a word From Mckinley.

From the Springfield, (Mass) Union.l
Mckinley might well, in the course
of his many speeches, say word about
the trusts and what his attitude to-
ward them will be il elected President.
1t is a question Of burning Importance
at this juncture. We do not find that
public opinion is growing in content
ment with the proposition OF some OF
the economists to let this matter work
itself out under natural law. IL is
proving a slow process, and meantime
the people are getting very restless
under the exactions of these conspira-
cies.

The outlook for Bryan and FREE sill
yer is much better than il WAS tea days

certain for Bryan, with at least an
equal chance for seventy-f1ve more"
